A great player for us. Does anybody know what caused the mystery illness?

It's car crash television. I can't help but watch it.

The early 80s Rank Xerox and Air Florida numbers are the best. They seem to go for about £80 on ebay.

Away end at Gigg Lane. Great atmosphere in the home end. It looked like a proper German league game. Singing for 90 minutes and huge flags. If only we could generate that sort of atmosphere.

Reporter: "Alright, Lawrie. Are you going to the game on Saturday?" Lawrie: "No, lad. I'm not." Reporter: "Why not?" Lawrie: "It's on telly and they haven't given me a free ticket." Reporter: "Does that bother you?" Lawrie: "Not really." Reporter: "What about that photograph they took down a few years ago?" Lawrie: "Oh yes. They did take it down. It's a bit like they're trying to airbrush me out of the club's history, ho ho ho." Reporter: "Cheers, Lawrie. That's an easy page lead."

I think it's not so great that the publicly-owned banks are giving out big bonuses. It's not quite like your local council giving officers a bonus, but it's almost like it. As for the completely private banks, I'm not sure I have such a problem with it.

Seems harsh to me. Many people get away with community sentences for beating the crap out of somebody in the street.

The goals weren't good enough. I want better goals than that, or any potential promotion will be hollow.

Insurance companies are the unacceptable face of capitalism.

The only explanation of the first story is that he cannot read English. The only explanation of the second is that she fancies a few quid.

For those living in the city, if may be worth bringing up a petition to the council. If you can get more than a certain number of signatures (I don't know how many, but it's probably less than 1,000 and I'm sure they bureaucrats could tell you) it has to be debated in the council chamber. The councillors can then choose to back it (among a number of other options). It won't change the law, but it would show that people care and could get the council on our side. Might be worth collecting some names outside/inside the Northam before an upcoming game to keep the ball rolling. I reckon you could probably get the required number at one game. Just a thought.

Yeah, but they're **** n'stuff n we r awsum.

I think a new law should be introduced to ensure that anybody commenting on taxpayers' cash must know where to put the apostrophe and how to spell taxpayers. These heinous grammatical errors make a mockery of the whole debate.

Should have typed 'misunderstanding'.

This statement displays such a fundamental understanding of socialism and the anti-fees protests that it would clearly not even be worth trying to start a debate with you. Further, I think many people on here don't really understand socialism as well as conservativism. To bring up one example: Working 8am-6pm does not make you a Tory, while knocking off at 4.55 does not make you a socialist. Voting Labour doesn't mean you believe in Government waste, it means you think the Government should take a greater role in people's lives. Voting Tory doesn't mean you disregard the needy, it means you probably think the needy are better served by a system that places a greater emphasis on enterprise to create work for all. Shades of grey.

Cortese sounds a bit paranoid, IMO.

Go on The Don and well done to Matt, who I'm sure had something to do with this.

I'd have to stop supporting England if he got the job, but thankfully it won't come to that. He's going to get found out eventually, because he's not a good manager. He won't become England manager.

And the aubergine. It'll be on the side of the pitch at some point.

Aubergines?

Aubergines. 90-minute singing. Party atmosphere. One new random song adopted.

Just tell her to sack it off and do an apprenticeship immediately. The last thing we need is for children to learn stuff.

Will female spectators have to cover their faces? Will gay footballers be banned from sharing rooms with their boyfriends? Will air-conditioned stadiums work?

Will probably give it a miss, tbh. I reckon it'll be a bit too hot to play football.
