Just hearing the sad news of Dalian Atkinson, but I had to chuckle: I remember my dear departed mum once asked the question whilst he was playing for Villa under Big Ron "Is he related to his manager?'
Last day of my fortnight and one day holidays today. Been doing a bit of gardening before having a litre of Prosecco and cranberry juice on the patio. The wife, (29yrs married yesterday), said " Not bad for a couple of Scally's from Toxteth and Walton. Are we now middle class?" My reply "Not until we buy a chocolate coloured Labrador" Her reply " I'd prefer a Rotweiler" You can take the girl out of Liverpool, but can't take Liverpool out of the girl!
In a cage behind the bar so they can point and throw things at them. Mind you, anyone with matching shoes is considered middle class in the Cheese.
'Passing swanky people'? They have 'Passing swanky people' outside the Cheese as the soft,shandy drinking locals Wools sit inside their la-di-da palaces do they? I bet they even have them 'chair' fangled nonsense things to sit on too.
New rule in La Ligue in Spain. If stands visible on TV are not 75% full the club is fined, if less than 50% full the fine is doubled. Imagine if they brought that rule in for Scottish football.
Well... thats ok but it prob just means they fill one side of ground on general admission and ignore segregation a bit. It might encourage lower ticket prices though.
Basically Real and Barca will be ok, the smaller teams will be fined. Plays into the hands of the top two again.
