Mate, Jacket potatoes with beans and cheese on a Saturday evening watching the A-Team on video after getting home from the football... magical memories. Crispy skin, fluffy innards, half a ton of butter... fuc king lovely. Humble, simple, and fantastic. Love a jacket potato. |

With Arsenal, they were by far the most successful club in London until Abramovich turned up, and the Victoria and Piccadilly lines mean it's always been a pretty straight forward journey for a decent chunk of South and West London, as well as North London. I've known quite a few Arsenal fans from South London who supported Arsenal because of Rocastle, Davis, and Thomas, and then Ian Wright. |

If that's how it works then Wrexham can presumably sue Saints for the £200m that they have been cheated out of due to Saints' cheating? |

I'm really enjoying Harwood-Bellis missing out on a potential promotion bonus, increase in wages etc. All those zany Saints fans taking binoculars and camo along to the games... megafukinglolz.
I was out on Friday with someone who supports and works for Saints and he was convinced they'd get a £5m fine or something. Genuinely couldn't understand the fuss and the main defence seemed to be that Saints hadn't actually won at Boro. |

I love the fact that Southampton have launched an "investigation" and the manager can't talk about it during Saints internal inquest, as though the analyst is gonna be some rogue operative who's decided to do this off his own back. Come on Hull.
And after their fans thinking it's comedy gold, I would love to see them booted out of the play-offs. [Post edited 13 May 10:31]

I paid £39 (+£2 booking fee) for the away end at the recent Bristol City game. My primary school age son's ticket was £21 (+£2 booking fee). Still, at least it was a great game with a lot riding on it.
£43 is a pi sstake for second division football. |

I liked the dozens of stewards forming a barrier around the pitch in the lead up to full-time. When you get a high intensity, high stakes game like that, played out in a febrile atmosphere, a pitch invasion is always on the cards.
Of the diving - Scott Twine loves a dive almost as much as he loves a moan, and his attempt to roll all the way across the pitch after a 'clash' was embarrassing for everyone. Knight, on the other hand, generally just gets up and gets on with things, so I'd be surprised/disappointed if he was play-acting, when he was down (maybe I'm naive). |

To be fair to Roy, he's having to deal with inheriting a side in terrible form, having:
- 1 fit CB who is young and has played 10-ish games in English football.
- A central midfielder playing at RB
- A not amazing LB playing at CB and a rusty LB who has come back from injury and seemed to have lost all confidence, playing CB in a back five.
- Riis often being underwhelming, but the alternatives being so limited that they are Delano fu cking Burgzorg, who is an absolute pile of lazy wa nk, or Sinclair Armstrong. Armstrong missed two chances that he should have buried when he came on as sub during Roy's first game and it says a lot about what Roy thinks of him that Burgzorg is somehow now the first pick from the bench.
City have been crippled by defensive injuries and dreadful recruitment up front. Roy doesn't have much to work with. The lack of movement from City's players when either CB or Vitek had the ball was incredible. That said, they probably had marginally the better of chances.
Nowadays, other than the odd epically sh it side (Argyle under Rooney) most Championship sides seem to be pretty effective at holding their shape and forcing opponents to knock the ball endlessly sideways and backwards, probing for an opening that seldom comes, and when it does come, and you're Bristol City, it comes to Sinclair Armstrong or Delano fuc king Burgzorg. The majority of games I watch seem to be same largely dull game over and over. Shape and positional discipline seems to have squeezed out risk taking and spontaneity.
When Sorba Thomas came on for Wales against Bosnia the other week, he must have taken on and beaten his man, 6-7 times in 10 minutes, and I had genuinely forgotten what it feels like to watch a winger try and beat his man on the outside, never mind keep doing it every time he gets the ball. I think the five subs doesn't help. Midfielders and forwards* can charge round closing like demons, knowing they're only on for 60-70 mins.
*forwards other Delano Burgzorg because that cu nt doesn't run for anything. |

Well that was utter pony! The sequence where City's two CBs passed the ball between them for about 8 minutes in the first half summed it up. Sh it game, shit ref, and sat next to a complete oddbod who kept telling me that games at LR are always boring and cagey because the pitch is so small. It's not even my club and I sat through that with a hangover. Still £42 for my ticket was a bargain. |

City have one available CB, no RB, and there's a good chance that Armstrong or lazy Delano fu cking dogshit Burgzorg will get on the pitch at some point. They're really not very good although Roy the Boy has taken a simple, common sense approach to how they set-up and they have improved under him. I'd be surprised if Rangers don't win.
My son saw his first City away win in 22 attempts at Charlton on Good Friday, so at least you don't have that streak hanging over you. |

I think the OTIB fanzone first came out at the time the Gas had left Eastville and were playing at Twerton. Hence the title. |

Roy! Roy! Roy! R-R-R-Roy!
City had announced that they are looking to appoint a new Sporting director. My guess is that Hodgson will get that job. This gives him an opportunity to work with and assess the squad for a few months. He presumably knows Richard Scudamore, who is a City fan and I think now advises the board. EDIT: I'd not realised he was 78! That makes me feel very old - 16 years since the Europa League final! Maybe not a long term appointment as Sporting Director then!
Struber has been very unlucky with injuries (1 fit CB, 1 fit central midfielder) and with dire options up front, so I do feel a bit sorry for him, but he has made some strange decisions re selections/formations even taking injuries into account. City are absolute pony at the moment and look totally bereft of any confidence. Thought he would get to the end of the season.
Tinnion will no longer be overseeing the first team as Technical Director, so that will be well received by most City fans. [Post edited 27 Mar 11:59]

Hi Ted, That's great news. Hopefully see you there.
The date/timings are unknown at the moment but I will confirm details once I have an update. I am afraid that the family feel it would be inappropriate for mourners to wear any footwear at the funeral, in keeping with Karate etiquette. They are keen that the service should be a celebration of Chuck's life and have asked that with the exception of black belts, guests do not wear black clothing. |

Just got off the phone and very sad to say that Chuck Norris has died. Is anyone else planning on going to the funeral?
The service is at East Finchley Cemetery. I will probably travel across on the day and stay with family overnight. Afterwards, there will be drinks and a spread at Whetstone Cricket Club, where Chuck opened the batting and kept wicket between 1994-1998.
His family have asked for people to wear Karate outfits. Everyone is invited to take part in a nunchucks display on the cricket club outfield after the service. No shoes and no flowers, but the family would welcome donations to the RNLI.
Hope to see some of you there. ❤️ x |

I thought Derby were really good tonight: moved the ball quickly, very competitive for every ball, solid at the back, and good movement. That said, City were absolute pony. A mind-blowingly wan k performance from them. One fit CB to select, so why play with 3 CBs? So open at the back, sloppy with the ball all over the park, and completely toothless.
If Vyner goes without being adequately replaced then City could well finish 14-16 on recent performances. Lots of very pis sed-off locals. Can't have been more than 3,000 odd City fans left in the ground from 85 onwards. Probably only 4-5,000 tops after 75 mins. Never seen anything like it. |

In a world where Chelsea could sell hotels and their womens team to themselves, this is ridiculous. Can they not just buy £50,000 of raffle tickets or whatever from them? |
