    Diving bans: Football Association expected to approve retrospective action

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39962886 Long overdue as far as I'm concerned. Name 'em and shame 'em, assuming that the latter is actually possible. Hopefully as this progresses previous suspensions will be considered when meting out new ones, and repeat offenders will rapidly reach a...
  3. Rule changes for this season.

    There's a few rule changes coming in this year. Particularly like the retrospective punishments for players feigning injury to get an opponent sent off. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33783861

    Pistol-Whip The Cheats

    Nothing irritates me more than diving. Seriously, it's right up there above noisy eating, people who play tinny R'n'B through their cellphones on the bus and that invisible scratch on my West Wing DVD that smashes straight through the important bit ten minutes into every episode when you're...

    Referees Are Cowards

    Another year, another desperate attempt by the Football Association to regain some semblance of control over their sport. This week's announcement that managers will no longer be able to criticise referees before the game has even started is just the latest in a series of inadequate sticking...

    Nervous Gunners Slip Through

    Cesc Fabregas is the youngest Arsenal captain since Tony Adams and, appropriately enough, the new era began much like the old one. The Gunners were tentative and unsure of themselves, but recovered their composure to sneak a victory. One nil to the Arsenal? Meet the new boss, same as the old...

    They Haunted the Os:

    #2 - Richard Cadette When we take an Orient retrospective from the early to late 1980s you can't help but be overcome with a sense of complete and utter misery. While the nation was tearing itself apart over the miner'sstrike the dear old Os were busy getting themselves relegated to Division...

    Suggestions of wage capping in football

    http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_4260702,00.html I quite agree that it is completely ridiculous for football players to be earning 6 figure salaries per WEEK, but fail to see how this can be implemented now. Would it be retrospective so the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, John Terry...
  10. You're organising a festival, which bands would you choose to play...?

    I was day dreaming last night about which bands i would invite to a festival if i was to organise one. The rules are, to keep things simple, you can't invite bands that are no longer together. This isn't a retrospective thing- they must be bands that are still together and recording music today...

    2005 - Top 5 Albums

    Groundhog Day

    My favourite film... Sunday February 1, 2004 The Observer (Today) is Groundhog Day. Perhaps your diary does not remind you of this celebration; mine lists nothing between Epiphany and St Valentine's. Maybe because the 117-year-old Groundhog festival takes place in Punxsutawney, western...
