    The second leg, in Mexico? 8th v 5th and all that??

    My mate, a former STH at the Vic (and we used to watch the reserves at Northwood, regularly - any excuse for a pint!) used Cancun as a base but took the more "adventurous" trips out and overnight stays. Seen all manner of pyramids and wildlife.
    He's also been to Argentina, Chile, and Bolivia, plus he has distant family in Venezuela courtesy of one of those DNA testing sites.
    He's been published in Wanderlust and Sunday Times /or/ Telegraph (travel) Magazine too. Currently working on a novel in his spare time. Sort of a Bryson meets Pratchett which is a lot to live up to. His poetry is pretty good too!
    Actually getting properly published is seemingly as difficult as getting a reasonable recording contract...
    Actually another good pal of mine had a book published. Quite a decent story but he's a YEC / Ken Ham follower, so the "science" as he presents it is complete bunkum! A pity, he is lost. Seriously lost. I used to take him regularly to "see" his team as he's blind, and give him a commentary. Those days are, sadly, long gone. Oddly he was the catalyst for my atheism. Probably the wrong thread, but hey ho.

    Couple of potential offsides in the Arsenal game leading to goals too .

    Shows why VAR is used I guess .

    This happened, and put the tie to bed.

    Bit of a belter, eh?! A goal worthy, and all that.

    I think that the goalkeeper got a finger to it, which is impressive.

    He did and all, Mrs mentioned that. Which is surprising as it was a proper screamer!

    Everyone who doesn't support America hates them mind, the Man U sort of club with so called supporters from all over the country.

    They have won the last 3 titles.

    Derby are really fighting here, they've not been at their best on the road.

    The crowd are rapidly losing patience with this Luton side.

    What a crazy game this is.
    How Luton are about to win this game I don't know neither will Derby but we will still have some time.
    It's probably been one of their worst performances of the season.

    Sums up me day!

    I watched some of it, and it was dreadful.

    Irritating result.
    But it was exactly as predicted to Mrs Fez with 10 minutes left. Neverton have a habit of doing the same and I really can't stand them either!!

    And certainly not to concede six goals at home.

    Had a look at the Udi game tonight. Some of the defending was pure comedy. I am sure they will be happy with an away win.

    How long before a game is called off because TV cameras cannot pierce the fog?
