Unless they get more right wing and turn Tory as they get older.

Good point, but perhaps they will fail in their qualifying game or maybe finish 3rd if they get to the groups?

Yes, it rather spoils you for anything else.

We should all be eternally grateful to him for scoring our first two goals against Arsenal in our last game at The Dell and thereby setting up Matty's glorious winner. Edit: enjoy MOTD all over again:

Do you really think she inherited a bit pot of gold? All loans have to be at a commercial rate.

So far they have. How long before one goes astray and hits Japan?

Maybe, but they shouldn't test them on other nations.

That is why Hoddle never made it as a manager. Matt scored that hat trick for England B and still didn't get picked. For anybody who supports England it was one big crying shame.

I was reduced to tears watching those, all of which I saw live. It is one of the great privileges of my life that I was there to see him in his prime.

Our two arrived this morning. A lot of box for a little bit of plastic.

When did it stop being the Milk Cup???

Cheers for that, Trousers. He seems very content, and great news that Højbjerg is pregnant.

We've had two flat tyres in less than a week. In Ilfracombe last Friday the front nearside on my Mercedes went flat with screw damage in under 300 yards and I had to get a replacement from ATS in Barnstaple (very good) for £141 and yesterday my wife's new Celerio had a screw sticking out of its shoulder for another £52. Both tyres were almost brand new. That's nearly £200 and a load of bother for nothing.

Look what happened to the Bismark when it lost its rudder. Just saying...

The only ambition that I care about is out on the pitch.

The wings have come off the rabbit.

I have no problems with that.

I had no control over that. If the government chose to do a Robert Maxwell and rob the pension fund that was their decision. Besides, I pay taxes, all the OAPs I know pay taxes, even my 97 year old mother pays taxes on her meagre pension.

Then you know nothing about football. It wasn't 'straight at him'. It flew past him at 50mph or more, over 70 ft/s. Human reaction times are such that it was past him before he could begin to move his arms. In order to make a save from that distance you have to anticipate the direction of the ball which is possible to some extent with a swing of the leg but a header can go in any direction and is not predictable. The only way that such headers are 'saved' is if they actually hit the keeper.

I repeat. My state pension is not a 'benefit'. You can call it what you like now but that's not what it was called when my wife and I were paying contributions towards I'd. There used to be a 'Department for Work and Pensions'. I don't read tabloids.

Don't be stupid. He had no chance with their third.

What's the difference between funding education up to 18 or up to 21? Or don't you want a well-educated workforce? Besides, graduates will tend to earn higher salaries and pay more in tax. Media studies was not an option in my day.

Pensions aren't benefits. They were bloody well paid for.

I remember the Saturday work that I did 52 years ago. I'm prety sure there was National Insurance taken off my meagre wages.
