If any of you are old enough to remember those football league ladders they gave away in Shoot magazine, it was always Nottm Forest and Notts County. That was back when Clough and Taylor were the bee's knees!

Dear Santa, with Jack Black on Amazon last night.

Ghost, with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore. Back when the Misses had a thing for Swayze, along with Dirty Dancing.

John Oster?

I recently came across: MYSTIFY SOCCER Free to play football management game It's set in real-time so one game a week unless you are involved in cups etc. For the first two weeks, you can't trade players but it will take you that long to fathom how it all works. Sadly, most British teams have...

The man pinned his colours to the wrong flag. He isn't the first and won't be the last; to err is to be human. Graeme Sharp is guilty of being a passionate Evertonian, and I cannot condemn him for that. Walking the corridors of power in the footsteps of some real Goodison Legends must have been...

Charles, the ref is just carbon-dating them!

1. Southall Joint Second; Pickford/Martyn 3. Howard Pickford will take that second place eventually, to me, right now, he is first among equals, but Big Nev was/is in a league of his own. Southall was in goal what Dean was up front, fully deserving a statue of his own!* *A statue, that if ever...

Football can sometimes fall into the rabbit hole of the right player, right team, right manager, and right time. The lad comes across with the right attitude, which is much better than Monsieur Misery-guts. Let us hope it all clicks when he gets on the grass!

Shandy van der Meyde?!

Jordan isn't infallible, and I wonder if during some of our recent games, he has just asked of himself too much and come unstuck, I mean that team set-up in all three games made me lose hope even before kick-off, so what must it do to his in-game concentration? Under SD it is just the...

I have been resisting the temptation to post as I honestly haven't a clue. However, looking around at who might tick boxes for our owner, I wonder if Thomas Frank might be the man. He has gone about his business at Brentford without much (if any) fanfare. He comes across well in interviews, has...

Football is and always will be a results-driven industry, Sean is not there to be loved and adored by the fanbase or even the players, he is there to do a job, which in his specific case might be to win just enough to keep us afloat, I don't honestly know. However, it isn't three straight...

He reminds me of the Captain of the Titanic and those after-match interviews, he is becoming comedy gold, just not in a good way.

I have become anesthetised to the shock, nothing this club does any more shocks or surprises me. Yesterday evening I cooked homemade Onion Bhajies, it's very therapeutic and they taste great! *While eating a couple of them I could actually stomach watching SD bemoan the 'smell in the air' as he...
