  1. Parenthetical means the same as "in parentheses" - i.e., in curved brackets. Just another way of introducing another thought, an extra idea, an interesting aside. Here's an example: He went down to the pub (after an early evening meal). The phrase in the curved brackets is parenthetical.
  2. Ahh, yes, I recognise that: it's "Happy-Clappy Talk".
  3. Not a Haiku - which has three lines: 5 syllables, 7 syllables, and 5 syllables. Toby now is gone, Spurred on by money and fame; A Saint no longer.
  4. Two good goals from Rodriguez. That's encouraging.
  5. Thanks for the link. Fun to watch a game live from Austria!
  6. Good header from a cross into the box from the right.
  7. Beautiful goal from Rodriguez!
  8. Nine minutes left.
  9. 3-5. Soares
  10. Good save at the near-post from Kelvin after Leipzig have a breakaway down the right. Forces a corner.
  11. Cheap goal to give up. Horrible defending.
  12. Leipzig score from a header.
  13. Excellent goal! 2-1 Saints.
  14. Second-half now.
  15. Half-time.
  16. Excellent stream. Thanks for the link!
  17. Key phrases: "Mirror Sports understands ..."; "Spurs' position is understood to be ...". "Understood" is a weasel word.
  18. It's a buy-out clause - not a buy-back clause.
  19. Can you re-write that sentence so that it makes sense?
  20. The Most Dangerous Book by Kevin Birmingham. A fascinating account of the history of Ulysses, the novel of James Joyce. This book tells the long history of the book's development, and the long campaign of censorship waged against it. It provides interesting details about how books were seized and banned in both London and New York City.
  21. Thanks for the help, guys.
  22. As I said, I tried BBC Football - didn't find anything. I also tried Google. Instead of being a smart-arse, you could have linked me directly the info, as the others did.
