Sigur Ros are awesome, although I haven't heard their new album. Liked them since about 2003.

Well Guildford works for us - she doesn't like London, we both like Guildford, my sister lives nearby and has just had her first child and we both work in London so can go out a bit in the week anyway.

You're pretty much right though, that certainly can be true. You do have to be careful with renting in London though. If you're only paying £400 a month you probably have a very small or grotty room or you aren't living in a particularly nice area. You have to check transport connections between home and work as well because if things don't link up properly you can still end up with a long commute. I work near Imperial Wharf station (south Fulham basically) and used to live near Archway in north London. The commute from there took as long or longer than it will from Guildford...

Yeah Guildford's a nice place, but making the commute longer would not make sense at all. But I don't mind having a small room, I had a small room at uni. As long as the area isn't too dodgy, the transport links are okay and the window doesn't look out on a busy road, then I'm easy.

Also, annoyed. For the Portsmouth Ladies page I tried to get some user engagement going by asking people who they think should be player of the year but I dunno wtf is going on but apparently it's only been seen by seven people in nearly 4 hours so clearly it's not appearing on people's newsfeeds (it's not even appearing on mine) so that's bloody annoying.
 
JOE KINNEAR:

"Derek Llambezee was director of football, he's now resigned." - He means Derek Llambias, who has only ever been the Managing Director.

"I brought Krul there." - He didn't

"I can give you contact with any manager in world football."

"Some of them (the NUFC fans) are talking out their backsides. I've got more intelligence than them, I know that."
 
This Joe Kinnear thing must be a wind up.

So far he's said these names, they're obvious all incorrect...

Derek Llambias - "Derek Llambeezee"
Papiss Cisse - "Piss Sissy"
Hatem Ben Arfa - "Ben Afri"
Yohan Cabaye - "Yohan Kebab"
Shola Ameobi - "Shola Amamobi"

Nope. talkSPORT had him on for what started as a serious interview before fans began texting and calling in.

My mate is a Toon fan and I asked him earlier if its just Ashley needing more publicity for his jumble sales. They just bought £50m worth of stock from JJB after that went down and maybe needs more publicity.

Not sure he'd do this. Pardew could walk within a fortnight. I'd not blame him. Maybe that's what they want?

Kinnear says he did a good job for Newcastle and that he knows more about football than anyone else associated with Newcastle, past or present.

My mate did say the same to me. Seems a bit odd though.... unless Ashley has an attractive young wife?
 
BBC and ITV F1 commentating legend Murray Walker has been diagnosed with lymphatic system cancer. Hopefully he can make a recovery - Murray's come out saying that it has been caught very early, and doctors are hopeful that it is treatable.

Legend in his own verbal excitement. Commentary was never quite as entertaining after Muddley Talker was dropped.
