And was very pleased when I gave him a spare discount voucher.

?? He pulls his ankle out of the way as soon as he toes the ball.

Yup, heavy water. Don't forget tritium. That makes tritiated water which is super-heavy.

Isn't it an isotope?

Just below left knee from when I was four and fell over. Right thumb from when the work glove got caught in a drill. Left wrist when a firework got inside my cuff. Both eyebrows and upper lip from separate football injuries. Two small ones on my balls from the vasectomy. One over two foot long on the inside of my left leg where they took the donor vein for my heart bypass - vey impressive. One scary one in the middle of my chest where they sliced open my sternum, still not quite completely healed after six months. One six inches long from the hernia repair in my thirties. Have I missed anything?

Yes, easily confused.

Sorry for the confusion on my part. On my Ipad using Tapatalk the post numbering was different and the gif wasn't animated.

The defender's leg was not fully extended at the time that he nicked the ball away first. If he had planted his right foot at the point where he nicked the ball then he would have been caught on the side of the ankle. That's because J-Rod got to the ball first and nicked it away, and then got his foot out of the way.

The chairman has 100% control That's why he's the chairman.

But this is football, not driving. In practice as well as theory referees can, will and have interpreted 'attempt to trip' as a foul. Players would do well to be aware of this before lunging in carelessly for a ball that they aren't going to reach. If it had been given as a foul in the middle of the pitch then less would have been said about it.

That's 2 elements.

Johnny, finding life a bore, drank some H2SO4. Now he's neutralised, it's true, but he's full of CO2

It was a foul. If a player has to take avoiding action then it is a foul.

I saw him in M&S just before Christmas. Looking for an interview suit?.

Plus two from Villa, Wigan, Fulham, Norwich, West Ham, Reading, anybody else, really. :-)

Natrium

Ah, but real cavemen would burn off the calories with subsequent vigorous and extensive nocturnal activities. I think I see where I have been going wrong...

That was part of my problem. Working later, getting home later, eating later, not exercising will all put on the belly fat. The best way to keep healthy is to eat less and move about more. And drink less too.

Please, I'm still trying not to remember that miss.

I was sat at lunch recently with an ex-owner of a local non-league club. He used to have a box at St. Mary's but when the price rocketed after the last promotion he told Cortese where to stick it.

The Sunday Times yesterday was quite equivocal about it. Personally I don't think it was a dive in the sense of 'simulation', rather a deliberate sprawl in order to move the ball on and avoid any potential damage. The way that both arms go forward in order to allow him to recover and get up quickly would seem to support this. In almost all case of diving/exaggeration/simulation the arms will go up in the air and often the player is looking at the referee before he hits the ground. J-Rod looks genuinely surprised at the outcome. There again, if it was given for a foul on Puncheon it's all academic.

It'll be mostly fluid, both the the gain and then the loss.

Good idea. When does it start?

Loading is different from parking or waiting (though I don't know the exact differences). For 'no loading' there are little yellow lines painted on the edge of the kerb such as near Tescos at Bursledon. Parking is a definite no-no.

Indeed it is, and there does not need to be contact for it to be a foul, nor does contact necessarily make it a foul.
