  1. Does Jon Venables deserve execution?

    Following on from a very brief discussion in a seperate thread a few months ago, it's been confirmed today that Jon Venables is to once again stand trial for possessing indecent images of children. I'd like to gauge people's thoughts on whether Corporal Punishment would be justified here...

    Farnborough F.C.

    Paddy Power are sponsoring Farnborough and have changed the player names to footballing legends. Another brilliant piece of marketing from the guy at Paddy Power! Even an ex-shrimper has changed his name Here's the squad list: GK: Gordon Banks (Kevin Scriven) DF: Lothar Matthaus...

    ITV & the cash cow league.

    I've just had the misfortune of hearing that cretinous **** Tyldesely declare that Harry Redknapp will be the first English manager to take a team into the Quarter Finals of this competition. And there's me thinking that Bob Paisley, Brian Clough, Tony Barton & Joe Fagan won it and Terry...
  6. Favourite World Cup Advert?

    So, everyone will be getting behind England for the World Cup and hyping up our chances of winning it, but what is your favourite advert? These are the ones I've seen so far. Carlsberg - The one going down the tunnel with England greats in it and the Lion at the end. The Sun(?) - Terry...

    Save Rafa....

    Out of the title race, out of the Champions League, out of the League Cup and out of the FA Cup. Under normal circumstances, it's obvious that Rafa Benitez would be out of a job this morning but, unfortunately for Liverpool, these are far from normal circumstances. They are broke, weighed down...

    England were crap

    So we were right all along, were we? All those criticisms of Steve McClaren's England, the ones that were constantly rebuffed by the players, the accusations that they cared only about themselves, they were all true? Shocking. I am so surprised I shall have to pick my jawbone up off the floor...
  10. Revell and tactics

    Haven't started a thread before so I thought why not live dangerously for once. Revell is a real trier, makes up in effort what he lacks in skill but frankly peeps I do not want to see my centre forward chasing down(and to be fair to him winning) balls wide left, wide right, on the half way...

    When Will The Levy Break?

    As Daniel Levy sits and stares at the league table during this interminable international break, I wonder how long it will be before he concludes that, with the benefit of hindsight, finishing fifth every year wasn't actually all that bad. Tottenham Hotspur are in crisis. Even though it's...

    Shambles at St James

    Kevin Keegan has gone, Mike Ashley is going and the Toon Army can no longer be relied upon to fund the senseless destruction of their football team. Newcastle United are in meltdown, slumped near the bottom of the Premier League and now, thanks to this lacklustre defeat at the hands of...

    El Tel to take over at Newcastle

    It looks like Terry Venables will be taking over at Newcastle albeit only on a 1 year contract.

    Sleeping Through The Dawn of Capello

    There’s something very special about setting your alarm to go off a couple of hours early and slipping out of bed to watch the sun come up. It’s uplifting to watch a new dawn break, with a mug of coffee in your hand. To think about the possibilities and the opportunities, to convince yourself...

    Barwick

    December is a busy time of year over here in England. There's Christmas shopping to be done, Christmas decorations to be arranged, Christmas trees to be purchased. In short, there's a whole lot of Christmas going on. Most of us spend these early weeks of the month constructing an enormous...

    Vote Mourinho!

    In the wake of the inevitable sacking of Steve McClaren, the English Football Association has promised an urgent review of the national game. They might want to start by looking at the cack-handed, bungling manner in which they last tried to hire a manager and promising to avoid a repeat...
  17. Simon Jordan Expects

    In an interview with Sky Sports, Simon Jordan said something along the lines of him expecting Peter Taylor to commit to the club fully and not be distracted... Surely this would mean Taylor stepping down from his post as England U21 Manager? Tilson must be amongst the favourites for the...
  18. Famous(ish) Neighbours

    Not content with Terry Venables having a place just down the road, I've just found out that Paul Weller's mum lives around the corner. Being a huge Jam fan (in both senses of the word of course) this news was a tad exciting. Wonder if I'll get to see the man himself strolling along...
