Someone reminded me that Vincent Pericard played for us the other day.

Seems a good idea to me. It's madness for a country in a new area to invest silly money on white elephant stadia in an attempt to out-trump their neighbours. So yes, share it around. Odd caveat only allowing cities with two airports to host a match, one per country on the other hand is fair. Only Wembley will fit for England. Glasgow is out, so is Cardiff. Munich too..... Should mean great demand for tickets, no need for stupid infrastructure projects and a final set piece in a chosen venue. It sounds as though Turkey will get it, fair enough. Just better hope Greece don't get to the final....

Reading, Villa, +1. Just so long we can avoid being that one.

Good for Liverpool. One out of three ain't bad.

Wonderful! Truly wonderful!

I actually bother doing some work for a change and I miss this! Inspired!

Inter's price keeps on going up.

Oh maaaaannnnnnnn.

On the whole, pro. But I would love to bang his and Le Tissier's heads together and tell them to sort things the f**k out.

More chance of Riquelme getting a recall for Argentina.

He was one of the best players in the world.... briefly. Now mid thirties and released on a free by Boca I think.....

My interpretation too.

John Salaako is having a meltdown over this!

Nuts. The ballboy was trying to shield the ball a bit, but kicking the ball from under him? Really? Idiot.

I'm pretty sure it is pounds. The relationship with Pochettino must be a key driver in this, and our early January interest the first indication of his upcoming employment here.

Interesting.

I'm beginning to think so....

I understand what you mean, but equally it's a quirk of our political system that any party can say what they will do in the manifesto, yet it will only be do-able if they rule in majority government. And as past elections have shown, any party that gets into power can go back on the manifesto after they finally get a chance to see the 'state of play.' Any manifesto from a point of opposition will only ever be at best educated guesses on what could be achieved. They cannot say what they will do if they need to go into Coalition because they will never be able to certainly predict the proportion of influence they will hold within a government formed in that way. This will devastate the Liberal Democrats in the next election after the farce over raised tuition fees, despite the fact that for the first time in recent history a liberal party has had chance to influence any kind of policy..... just on a minority basis. It's a problem with the rules for me, not the players.

He couldn't honour it due to being in Coalition. It was one of the compromises made to make a deal with the Liberal Democrats.

Pleased with this. Particularly with how Cameron came across on the radio, words to the effect of: "We will give the public their say; I personally think we should stay in but this will give us the chance to debate and then make an informed vote "

Not just me then!!!

Rochdale in the inaugural competition.

You have to wonder what has happened to the guy who was in charge at Norwich when they went up back-to-back.

Bradford City in a cup final. Football, bloody hell!!

Bradford equaliser!!!! Get in there!
