He'll play Kane up top, Saka, Bells, and Foden behind,with Rice and the United lad as the two holding. |

Very, very emotional watch. BBC/organisers done well today; Mrs PH and myself blubbing all morning too. Is it me, or is King Charles sporting more medals than some of the Veterans who actually stormed the beaches? |

These guys never spoke about their experiences, keeping bottled up the sheer horrors of their experiences of war. However, while delivering my mother's eulogy recently, I recalled how, my mother would take me to Roehampton Limb Fitting Centre from the late 60s, and thus, I grew up in the presence of men who had lost limbs in both World Wars. The thing I recall most from my boyhood: was somehow, my mother would get talking to them and maybe, because she was a stranger to them, they would often open up. I knew enough about me to keep quiet and not play up. These guys' recollection were such, that when we would come home, my mother was always in floods of tears. They often told her: at least I would never have to go to war. She seemed so able to talk, but mostly to listen to these guys. I always felt she could have been an excellent counselor. Alas, it was not just their combat experiences that made her cry, it was what did or, more pointedly, did not happen to them upon their return! Bizarrely, sadly, and annoyingly, I ended up working with Vietnam vets, their experiences were the same as those that had gone before them. Shocking! Such was the mark it left on me, that on my travels, I always visit war grave sites, especially out in South East Asia. As you stroll by, you are struck by the ages of these 'boys', who laid down their lives for us, and I think of what hell they must have faced in their final days and moments. God bless them all. Absolute heroes to a man and woman. |

George Floorman is a QPR fan, and the son of a lad I used to sit with. The son of another one of the lads I used to sit with is called Jack Corden. He's a plumber and Mrs PH and I suggested he call himself, 'Flush Corden'. |

While accepting his awful barnet was more prevalent after he left the Rangers, but you certainly saw the early roots of David Seamen's, frankly, ridiculous ponytail at QPR. |

I admire anyone brave or mad enough to cycle in London. That said, some cyclists deserve a good kicking as much as motorists! |
| Forum Reply | League cup being messed about with at 05:55 31 May 2024
I don't think I've been to a League Cup game since we were diagnosed as being lactose intolerant in 1986, and if I've not been to one, I sure as merde haven't bothered to watch one on TV either. I know Liverpool won it this season, but I'd be guessing previous winners beyond that. I rather suspect my apathy toward the competition is mirrored by the overwhelming majority of people on here and elsewhere. It's become increasingly irrelevant, no one is really that bothered about it, and I'd scrap it altogether. In fact, if we did that, it might increase the importance of the FA Cup, as the one remaining and proper knockout competition. |

Bus stop on the Greenford Road by the old IBM building and seen in several other locations. It was brilliantly simple: someone had placed an 's' over the 'v' in the aftershave advert featuring Johnny Depp. Thus rendering 'Sauvage' as 'Sausage'. |

If I were Chelsea on the cusp of appointing this bloke, I'd start looking for his replacement in November now. |

I genuinely believe you could easily find 10 sensible people, put them in a room, and by thevdays end, you'd get 10 sensible ideas. Makes you wonder why 650 MPs fail so miserably over the course of 5 years! |

I think you're right. Imagine our armed services with Rishi Washy types on the front. Its Mike Bassett politics at its best!! |

What the fcuk are these idiots thinking? What they should have suggested, is a year of volunteering with some form of 'social credits' paid to the volunteer. This could be something like: a lump sum into your pension (imagine if say, £5k was put into an 18 year old's pension pot); a reduction in university/training course fees; a pathway/guaranteed job in the civil service; waiver on passport/driving licence fees for life; or such like. Just I'll conceived, probably unbudgeted nonsense. They clearly have forgotten that one reason NS was abandoned was because many weren't putting a shift in and it was a waste of money! And that was at a time of more social cohesion too! Utter tomfoolery which, if you dig a little deeper, is probably an attempt at getting cheap labour!! |

Exactly! And having let the elder Mbappe slip through our paws, I hope we're not going to be late to the party for the younger one. |
