Whitey Grandad

Does yours look anything like this? http://resources1.news.com.au/images/2014/03/16/1226856/097881-eee5a7e0-ac93-11e3-bf6a-6ec13e402258.jpg

You're right, of course, I remembered it as being 10 yards nearer our goal. It was still a crap attempt at a short pass that left us exposed at the back. There were several opportunities to retrieve the situation even after that.

Vidic went flying in for a ball he was never going to get. Sturrridge certainly has previous but in this case I think he tries to avoid the lunge and does actually catch his foot (you can look at that either way) on Vidic's outstretched boot which is enough for a penalty. There was certainly a 'trip or attempt to trip' there. The later claim on Sturridge was a certain penalty. Certainly a booking for Vidic anyway. How long have we waited for a penalty to be awarded against Man U and now three come along in a row?

Why would an experienced pilot with all the facilities available to him want to build a flight simulator in his home? He obviously didn't need the practice. Unless maybe he used to train other people in his spare time?

No, it was a few yards upfield from the 'D' and the Norwich player had a clear run on goal. Fonte's was just a sloppy pass back towards goal that he played without looking.

Not just you, I had to read it a few times but if you're being charitable you can blame auto-correct. I always do.

We could very easily have conceded on several occasions due to him passing short balls to a player under pressure. As for his kicking, it was at least five that went straight into touch before he found the pitch, and it's a very big target. He knew it was bad and he acknowledged as much to the Chapel.

He was pulled back so it would have been a foul.

JWP was a very lucky boy. If they hadn't scored he'd have been sent off.

Just a missing apostrophe, easily done on a smartphone. I've seen worse on here.

Chelsea, far too good for us.

Hmm... sloppier than a bagful of slops from the planet Slop on a sloppy day. I'll take the three points though Are we safe now?

If we're off to the Costa Brava again I'd like the dates so I can arrange my holiday, please

That would be nice it would be the ultimate insult.

Instead of floundering outside the Eurozone do you mean?

You should see me now

He drove ok, he once gave me a lift in his Hillman Hunter estate.

All of this. He will always be Anthony Wedgwood Benn, formerly Viscount Stansgate to me. He never had the faintest clue what it was like to be poor or what went on in the real world. I once saw him in a TV debate where he thought that bank base rate was what you actually paid for borrowing money.

Spot on mate, the only thing I might have seen is the first episode of LOST but I thought it all a load of pretentious twaddle. Like a lot if these types of show it had all the appearance of being made up as it went along by a team of scriptwriters who didn't really know where they were going. I'm also not a great fan of hand-held jerky zoomed-in camerawork, it gets between me and what's going on so please alert me if this is the case in any of these. W Grandma is a great fan of crime thrillers, especially continental foreign language ones, so my viewing opportunities are limited after football and the odd action film. I rely on my son for recommendations and he sometimes lends me box sets. I'll have a chat with him.

You think that's bad, explain to me how this can happen: http://www.edp24.co.uk/news/video_and_photo_gallery_norfolk_fire_station_destroyed_in_blaze_investigations_continue_1_3422676

The only one of these that I've seen is Rome, and there won't be any more of those now that the set has burnt down

I think there was surface wreckage to help them find the location. It might be an idea to have a buoy that was released though.

It might be underwater.

I never begrudged him his holiday in the sun. I wonder if we shall see his like again. As for the eulogies, it reminds me of this sketch:
