Regarding the World Cup, I thought tv commentary was supposed to be impartial? I can understand home countries getting excited about their teams (wherever in the world) but today on Itv, co-commentators Andros(s) Townsend was "glad" Cameroon had scored v Serbia and later Ally McCoist similarly, was getting moist over the best cheats in world football, Portugal scoring v Uruguay!

Or like the one at Old Trafford. Just a platform which is serviced just on matchdays from Piccadilly or from the other direction. Which has now closed. They have a great tram system that drops nearby though. Also Sheffield areas good one.

What time did you get to the track because when I went via a local(ish) pick up company some years ago (not Megabus) we missed most of the earlier support races.

It’s almost as if one thing has no relationship to the other…. As if there are no white, Protestant paedophiles. Nearly 3500 claims against the Church of England alone but point the finger elsewhere. Not that it's relevant to the original post Not heard of any protestant gangs targeting girls in Oldham, Rotherham, Keighley, Bradford.... But you'll no doubt keep trying to deflect what these sick gangs are doing. Unbelievable.

My advice, stop in Lancaster, it's a great drinking town. Did so the other week on the train. Morecambe for couple of hours then onto the excellent Lancaster.

The Qataris have reminded fans that one night stands are illegal in the country, and carry a seven year prison sentence. Yet paedo gangs of the same religion thrive in the Uk!

Just enquiring if anyone on here is going to the F1 at Silverstone and has any car park availability they don't require I could buy off them? Mrs has suprised me with ticket to the main race on the Sunday but after double checking the ticket they don't include parking 😬😕. As would be expected sadly all the car parks are full at this late stage and was just chancing on here that someone may either have a spare as part of a package they don't use.. Or even more of a bonus, if anyone on here actually resides or knows a Stokie who lives in Silverstone village itself with a spare space on the drive 👍🏻 .. I do have a not so ideal plan B so no great shakes if nothing doing but if you don't ask you don't get as they say 😉🤣 Think they have park & ride (was from Sixfields stadium) as they try to cut down on car traffic.

You never see them about anymore, when growing up you saw quite a few of them around the City. I think the opposite is true, see many everyday. I think they are just a younger demographic with a smarter dress code these days👀 One's around in my younger days didn't bother with drugs though!

Utter scum - how can anyone do that to any animal ? What is so urgent that he couldn't wait to let these innocent creatures cross safely. This tosser deserves to be named and shamed. They do it to humans often enough. Soft justice systems don't help.

Everyone’s pet hate who drives I’m sure but seems to be happening more & more especially drivers of “fast” cars think that when changing lanes it’s ok to manoeuvre/indicate/check mirrors (not) it’s ever likely we all suffer with high insurance with these idiots on our roads, happened to me twice on a500 just from stoke to Kidsgrove, just a short drive really!! I drive approx 40k miles a year in my job and I can honestly say that the driving standards in and around Stoke on Trent is one of the worst in the country. I regularly drive into places like London, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds etc and the drivers there are for more aware and courteous than in Stoke. Not sure why it’s so bad here…any suggestions? Have you tried the Bradford area?! Many illegal and crazy drivers and the police are invisible. When I started driving in the early 80's you always knew the police weren't far away. Not the case now!

Sent mine back due to chips always too dry despite adding oil. Back to good old fashioned chip pan, though only use once a week if that.

It was Carl Beeston with the disallowed overhead kick. Corrected. I was in Boothen and think it was the opposite goal.

Andy Carroll must have scored the best 2 disallowed goals tonight for Reading against Fulham, superb finishing, overhead kick and volley. But the best one not allowed that I recall was an over head kick by Beagrie in the late 80's(?) when the daft ref penalised him for dangerous play!

In light of a post I made in my favourite Song chain name thread about owning Don't try to stop by Roman Holliday what records are other posters either embarrassed or dumbfounded about? I've always loved music , I'm 52, brought up on Roxy Music by my dad. The Jam, The Clash, Madness ,The Specials. 80's was OMD, Depeche, Human League 90's Oasis, Shed Seven,Inspiral Carpets etc Yet inexplicably having had a good sort out I own these horrors in my 7 inch collection. Tarzan Boy. Baltimora Don't try to stop. Roman Holliday . Since Yesterday. Strawberry switchblade . Has anyone else got stuff that they think like me, when the hell and why did I buy that guff. Tarzan boy easily the most embarrassing and bizarre record in my little black box. I used to sing "don't start stopping" when that was out! I'm useless with lyrics. Like Elton Johns I'm still standing, thinking he was singing " and if you think that Stoke would never win"! 😅

He knows they weren’t. Pure deflection tactics Deflection? It's just been thrown out of court by a judge and jury. I thought you boys were champions of the justice system.......... So judges and folk are always correct are they?
