I remember being met by hostile police coming off the train at several away venues. Shoving people around, trying to provoke a reaction etc.
A visit to Southampton stands out in the memory because the police were actually friendly when we arrived. |

No excuses for not getting out of the group when a bunch of 3rd place teams will get through and there'll be some dross in the tournament due to increased numbers. |

Yeah I was interested in Vegas but some relatives went and said its a bit of a shit hole. Also I have no interest in gambling and casinos.
Dubai to me just seems like a place that would be full of w**kers. [Post edited 4 Dec 22:48]

Probably watching football in South America for me. Would love to run a marathon but am not getting any younger and not sure if I'd find the time (or the motivation 😄) for the training. May well do at least a half next year though, that I think I could manage ok.
I've seen us in an FA cup final, been to a European cup final, seen my team win the NRL grand final (South Sydney in 2014), watched us beat Chelscum 6-0, been at two Sydney ashes tests won by England in front of a raucous England support, skydived, bungee jumped (never again, but incredible!) and seen a lot of my favourite bands live. So not too bad really. [Post edited 4 Dec 22:39]

Yes I remember their 5th near the end well and thinking well we had a go at least. Their fans of course giving it large at that stage but looked devastated at the end. LOL. |

We were 4-0 down at half time. I wasn't one of those who left the ground at that stage! |

Indeed, apologies for the oversight. |

My main use for the asterisk is to place it next to every Chelsea "achievement" since 2003. |

Because the dumb sheep are led by the media, Nigel the posh stock trader etc into blaming a few boat arrivals for all evils. |

Aus media hailing Starc as a hero but blaming their innings on the batsmen. No praise for our bowling! |

Saw the Roses in Sydney in 2013 after they reformed. A fantastic experience.
See the bands you love while you can. Saw The Specials here twice, both brilliant gigs, Terry Hall now gone.
Went to see the Pixies last week, who were superb, and Oasis (absolutely biblical) the week before. They may return but nothing is guaranteed.
RIP Mani. |

I like how Tuchel is sending the message that nobody walks into the team just because of who they are.
Bellingham is a very good player, maybe one day a great one, but his ego is an issue. Nothing wrong with confidence in your ability but you aren't bigger than the team or the manager. Easy to forget he's still only 22 and has plenty of maturing to do.
Tuchel is preparing for the reality of having to make changes and not having everyone available which is good to see. |

Well there you go. I remember the first one of those but no memory of the others. Probably coincides with the arrival of Netflix etc and many alternatives to free to air TV.
I was never much of a cricket fan when living in England and aside from taking a bit more interest when I had little choice after first moving here, have clearly paid little attention for quite a long time. |

I've lived in Australia 25 years and in that time very few touring teams have won here. England once, India once or twice and I think South Africa once.
Its very difficult as the conditions here are so different to elsewhere plus the home team is usually pretty good. Also not helped in my view by England tours being over the Christmas period when players would rather be at home.
Wood already injured. About 35 with a history of injuries, what better than to select him for a gruelling 5 test tour here. If he was a footballer QPR would have signed him. [Post edited 13 Nov 22:47]

Pretty obvious really that its to prevent lip reading. The media are all over anything that might be seen as controversial, trying to monetise it, and absolutely everything is captured these days. |

Probably a lot richer too with all the money saved on going out drinking in the hope of meeting someone. |
