    Looks more like a bacteria from the toilet in a Domestos ad.

    Wow.

    Talking of mascots, Farnborough might be getting a new falcon type mascot and I've been trying to convince them to not go for the God-awful current name of Farney (as in Farney Rubble, wtf that's the mascot I have no idea), instead suggesting Cody (as in Samuel Cody), thankfully at least a few of the other people on the forum are in favour of that!

    And the Latin name for that is "Yellow Thistle"

    I thought you were better educated Fran :)

    The designer (a Turner-prize winning artist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) says it is a Sun with a quizzical look on its face. It is based on the logo of their new American sponsors....who I can only assume produce horror films.

    Parma has gone bankrupt after no buyers came forward.

    Did you know that early banks used to operate from tables called banques in Italy and if they run out of money their banques were broken, hence bankrupt. Not a lot of people know that.

    Still 0-0 at nearly 40 mins. Norway have been the better side...our GK is the outstanding player for us so far...never a good sign.

    What kind of crap pitch is this though....apparently they keep watering it as it is getting too hot!!

    Ridiculous goal to have conceded - why on earth did our keeper turn the ball round for a corner? Nice equaliser though.

    He'll buy Jill Scott if he has any sense, she's looked excellent.

    89th minute and they're religiously playing it into the corners. Reckon the Men need to take note.

    And they win. Well done the Women.

    Incidentally, I just watched the Norway Spoof Documentary. Very good: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33212249

    Good win for England. We were tedious and unimpressive until we went behind. A lot like the men's team.
