Incredible scenes from the talented Brownlee brothers. There's no doubt in my mind that Alistair would've beaten the South African had he continued on past his brother, but that thought clearly never entered his mind. Reminds me of one of the first ever footy games I attended as young lad when...

Got a huge stack of these, mostly from around the 2000-2002 era. Handful are signed by the likes of Hickson/Labone among others, I'll have to have a proper sort through. Anyway I'm having to get rid of a lot of my stuff due to moving somewhere a lot smaller, and they could well be among the...

How has this guy kept players like Schurrle, Mata and De Bruyne out of the team? Any one of them is a better player by far, and yet they've all been moved on. He's decent, but no idea why he's a staple in their first XI. I'd even argue Salah is a better player. Do we think he's overrated or am...

Thinking of getting a piece of two after I've finished decorating. Please share your favourites here, can be any style from any era, just to get an idea of what I like. A quick archive suggests @Clint Planet can add some class to proceedings.

Somewhat inspired by Moneyball, I got to wondering whether a team consisting of only bottom half players could conceivably win the league. Now I know that in the real world it simply won't happen, after all who would go out to buy purely lower half teams and nobody from abroad etc, but I find...

Well do you? What do you do? There's some good sorts on here and I wondered how many of you give up your free time to help others/animals etc. This is your time to step forward and shine for being such a good egg without feeling like you're tooting your own horn.

After letting another lead slip and witnessing what was, to put it kindly, an insipid second half performance, Evertonians were again left rightly frustrated. Stepping back and distancing myself from the usual go-to fume phrases, I've been trying to look objectively at why it just isn't quite...

Always been interested in learning a language, but the parrot fashion method never let anything stick. Bought a Paul Noble audio book set (Spanish) the other day and going through it now, it's great fun and you're taught how to actually construct useful sentences rather than just writing list...

Just booked it! First time any of us will have been, all buzzing about it already. Anyone else going? Anyone ever been? Share your stories.

Fred Phelps Sr., the founder of the Westboro Baptist Church, is “on the edge of death,” according to a Facebook post Saturday night by his estranged son. His son, Nathan Phelps says the 84-year-old Westboro founder was voted out of his church late last summer. He was moved into a home in...

Specifically, 'crap taxidermy' the Facebook page. Had me in bits this morning, like this otter; Check it out there's tons more there.

Not a jarg new years resolution to read more but an attempt to read some books I'd otherwise completely miss out on. Recommend me your favourite book/books, no matter whether fiction or nonfiction, and regardless of the genre. A top book is a top book. I won't influence your suggestions by...

'Social' media is something which has been bothering me for a while. How can something called 'social' media actually be so unsociable? Every cafe you go into, every train you're on, every single bus, even every queue, is full of mindless scrolling and searching, people seem absolutely...

Who is that band who, for you, signals that the summer has truly arrived? This beautiful day today immediately made me want to listen to Queens of the Stone Age, and instantly reminded me of standing in a field in Leeds with 20,000 others, cider in one hand, burger in the other, bobbing madly...

To me. I know the birthday remembering legend JDawg would have posted a thread about this but I deleted my birthday from Facebook because quite frankly I've grown to hate the site. But I actually rather like this one, so I'll mention it here instead.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-21737844 This could potentially be huge. If we fail to counter the threat of global immunity based on profitability, potentially hundreds of thousands could die each year from simple infections. Sad that doctors have largely been dishing them out for pretty much...

As a few others have thrown contenders into the ring, let me present to you Neutral Milk Hotel. Beloved by the clique, and rightfully so, there are very few albums that can compare to the emotion and unique sound present here. Fronted by the beautiful, unorthodox vocals of Jeff Mangum and...

Or to be more PC, who is the dominant in your relationship? Do you think its healthy for it to be the man? Does it change after marriage and kids are thrown into the equation? A couple of my mates in long term relationships seem fairly under the thumb, and have to ask permission to do...

One of the best comedy series ever, halfway through rewatching it after 3 years. The way Barrett and Fielding bounce off each other is incredible, and you can tell they're struggling not to laugh themselves sometimes in the partially scripted bits. Be interested to see how many here love/hate...

Lately I've been hearing about the money (sky money?) next season being drastically increased, by as much as 50%? Moyes brushed over it recently too in one of his interviews. I generally don't do finances, partially because I have little interest in anything monetary, my own finances aside...
