  1. Also in The Times today: 'There are six teams, at most, who go into this season with hopes of mounting a title challenge. Throw in Southampton and you have seven who might consider challenging for the Champions League.' That's nice
  2. Cholesterol
  3. Didn't I read recently that wage bill was a bigger correlation to success than purchase price?
  4. Er... He was in the right place at the time?
  5. This is all wonderful to hear, gentlemen, and I only wish I could have been there. May I suggest that you also direct your appreciation to the town council at: gemeente@arnhem.nl http://www.arnhem.nl/Algemeen/Contact
  6. I agree. Sky tried to do an analysis by looking at the umpire's eyes to see if he was looking down at the bowler's feet as he bowled, but apparently not.
  7. Which half did he give you, Eric?
  8. I have been to Sønderborg many, many times in the 1990s and later. At first I learnt the numbers, then whether they were talking about me and eventually I could begin to understand some of what they were saying. My business partner John knew a few numbers but not all of them so if he wanted to buy 15 beers he would ask (in Danish) for '14 beers... and one more'. Sadly John is no longer with us.
  9. Hej Gulle, By 'what sort of attendance' we normally mean the number of people who attend (spectate) at the games, so we talk about the 'average attendance' and so on, not 'what type of people attend the game'. Møjn
  10. They don't need to bother. If a wicket is taken the review will catch it. They were saying on Sky that the bowler will continually overstep because the umpires don't pull them up on it.
  11. Very disappointing:(
  12. If you must have one then better to buy two. You can always cut and splice them into separate Saints and Vitesse scarves when you realise your mistake.
  13. When I used to visit Sønderborg in South Jutland regularly we flew to Hamburg and got a lift or hired a car from there. It's a few hours up to the ground but if there are no other flights and a few of you to share then might be worth considering.
  14. You can see the draw here, but I struggled to spot anything interesting. http://youtu.be/RHo9GxenAOQ
  15. Meget godt! I have been to Denmark many times and it would be good to go there again. I see a road trip coming on with a few days taking the Mrs up the north at Skagen. It's a pity the Esbjerg ferry has stopped because it's a day's drive from the Hook of Holland. I have driven it from Chandlers Ford in one day a couple of times but I was younger then. What do we reckon are the chances of an away ticket?
  16. I guess that's not the first time you've said that?
  17. I have never watched an episode but even I knew a lot about his character which tells you how much he made the role his own. Gone but not forgotten. Rest in Peace.
  18. He did his job well last night.
  19. Or that once they're in the league they know they'll get some more money and can budget for a replacement?
  20. We studied the Aeneid for my O-level when I was at school. That's over 50 years ago now Virgil (Gus) Grissom He should be good at finding space on the pitch.
  21. Anybody? http://www.vitesse.nl/webshop/producten/313/details/fansjaal-europa-league
