  1. Shrimp Toothbrush: An Irish Shrimper choon!

    As it's Anthony's birthday today I've decided to spin a track from a band from the Emerald Isle - not Ash, or Stiff Little Fingers but the sadly underrated A House with Endless Art. Happy birthday fella!

    Let's all cross our fingers shall we.

    The Deputy Governer of the Bank of England is crossing his fingers and hoping the economy improves next year. I thought it was a joke the first time I heard it. For Gawd's sake. If he is crossing his fingers what hope is there for the rest of us ? I'm now crossing my fingers that Emma Bunton...

    Now dont get me wrong this is by no means a 'rose tinted' view, we need at least three players in and quick, and we did not play that well today but I can say with hand on heart if you had offered me a win and a draw to open the season with, considering the fact we have a patched up first eleven...

Here we have...

    Inappropriate giggles and laughter...

    Why does this happen!? On a train this morning coming into Richmond, a young fella walks down the aisle, laptop bag on his left shoulder, clutching both a coffee (in a cardboard cup) and a reading book in his right hand. He catches another bloke, in front of me to the left, with his laptop...

    2nd Test

    With it level with 3 to play this is a vital test, especially as it is often a 'result' wicket. I know Headingly seems to be a ground where selectors have often favoured a 'horses for courses' bowler, but have to say Im stunned by Pattinson's inclusion in the squad. He is having a good...
  8. Surgery stories....

    Had my carpal tunnel done on my right hand today. Surgeon opened my hand up and when he had snipped the offending ligament, he showed me the workings of my hand, which was nice of him. The best bit was when he tugged on each of my tendons in turn, and my fingers curled up one by one. I've used...

    The battle for survival

    The only excitement that comes close to the battle for the Premier League is the fight to merely stay in it for another season. The financial rewards of the top flight are now so vast that relegation is no longer an occupational hazard that can be thrown off with one straight-forward recovery...

    Battrick news from Q&A pt 1

    GM-Rascal Does playing under "Go For It" orders have any other effect than increasing the performance levels of your team? Hearsay evidence would suggest that it would also seem to result in unpredictable performances from players, is there any truth in this? BT-allanf Go For It improves the...

    Sorry Spurs

    Juande Ramos said earlier this week that the clash with PSV Eindhoven would be a barometer of his team’s progress since he took the helm, but if that’s the case then there’s a grim storm on the horizon. Most people put Tottenham’s abysmal showing at St Andrews last weekend down to a hangover...

    The Curse of Spurs

    The Forth Bridge in Scotland is a magnificent sight. A mile and a half long, it’s an immense, yet beautiful assembly of blood red steel bars and rivets carrying hundreds of trains a day over the wonderfully named Firth of Forth. It is said, usually by locals eager to fool a gullible traveller...

    In Out In Out Shake it all about

    Lee Barnard's injury that we were told yesterday would put him out for two weeks has cleared up enough for him to have late fitness test for tomorrow's game: Lee's Knee Fantastic news but it does seem that no one seems to quite know what the hell's going on with his fitness. Fingers crossed.
