    O/T Ever get annoyed with cyclists?

    That will explain why they are so successful in Holland and other European countries then.

    The Reason you got into Football

    And what did you and all the others who go on about Maradona and others cheating think about Owen's blatant cheating to get a penalty in the World Cup finals (or clever play as the pundits, who are as hypocritical as the fans about these things put it)?

    CAMPAIGN: FSF Safe Standing Roadshow is coming to Hull City

    Nothing to mdo with it. The highest ever decibel level recorded at a football match was at a Turkish stadium holding about 30,000 people which has no roof. I've posted this before, it is a clip from anjother stadium with no roof that holds less than 23,000. It is also an all-seater stadium. The...

    All Time World XI

    But of course players like Moore if playing now would have the benefit of modern training and be fitter than they were then. Which is where their superior skills and reading of the game would come in.

    All Time World XI

    All time World XI? That is more like a last 15-20 years team. I assume you haven't watched football for that long. Otherwise you'd consider Pele, Garrinchia, Lev Yashin, George Best, Bobby Moore Duncan Edwards, Tom Finney, Franz Beckenbauer, Puskas, Di Stefano, Johann Cruyff plus countless...

    Sky Sports 1 Tonight

    What sort of Lions are blue if it comes to it? Good club, Leicester Tigers. Get bigger crowds than both the rugby teams i the rugby mad city of Hull put together. and more than us on occasion.

    CAMPAIGN: Expand and Stand - FSF Safe Standing Roadshow

    Simple. The whole end is standing. Look at the German grounds, the whole end is seating or standing depending on the game, European or domestic. At dortmund one end is all standing and the other end is standing at the bottom and seating on the tier above. there is no way they are next to each...

    Who else has never lived in Hull or even East Yorkshire?

    It is a different thing. Those people haven't chosen City because they wanted to latch on to a more successful or better supported club than their local one. Most in fact support City because their family were originally from Hull. Nothing wrong if somebody living elsewhere supports Leeds...

    strip searches on saturday

    They were indeed all standing.Just shows what can be done even in an all-seater stadium given the right fans and stewarding. the atmosphere in a stadium smaller than ours is fantastic.Which would rule it out at the KC on both counts. What I like is the way their equivalent of the West Stand is...

    strip searches on saturday

    Seeing as it is an all-seater stadium (see link) I would say not. http://www.stadia.gr/harilaou/harilaou.html Anymore irrelevant observations to make?

    strip searches on saturday

    God knows how they would cope at a stadium with a proper atmosphere like in this video. Give it a minute as the fun starts there. An all-seater stadium as well and no roofs which gives the lie to the claim about how the high roofs lets the noise drift out being given as a reason why the KC is...

    Radio Blunderside last night

    Had to listen to the link to Blunderside provided on the other board unfortunately as I live away and couldn't make it. They make Alan Partridge seem like Kenneth Wolstenholme. No interest, cackling amongst each other and negative, although not as negative as Nick Wood (which is hard to accomplish).

    Rooney's ban reduced

    Are Barca, Real Madrid, Milan and others engaged in a battle to sign them up? The term world-class is bandied about a bit too easily.

    New Song

    Yes, I don't know what I was doing there (insert smiley showing embarrassment). Don't know why, I'm always arguing this with a Chelsea fan, pointing out that the lion being king of the jungle is nonsense and why. Although for some reason everyone associates lions with jungles, especially...
