I thought that kids would love it, firing arrows at ropes etc, that sort of stuff is quality when you're a kid.

Saw it in Waterstones today but opted for Michael Atherton's delve into the psyche of gambling instead.

Most people in Lancashire do install an anti-theft device in their car. If the car goes past St Helens towards Liverpool then the doors lock, the engine cuts out and it sends an SMS text to the police.

Didn't buy the last one, 'acquired' it from a very legal Swedish tracker. Only played a bit of the demo, seems decent but I was with West Brom because without face/badge packs the Premiership teams and players look very bland. I'm sure someone will release these soon after the game is released anywa...

Wasn't the fire caused by rubbish falling through cracks accumulating underneath the terraces, then being lit by something, probably a cigarette. I thought it was an accident that the fire went up as opposed to arson, though of course the stand was inherently unsafe (and due to be closed).

He was the most talked about for months during his drug phrase. do you mean "during the furore surrounding his missed drug test and sunsequent ban". There is no evidnce to suggest Rio has ever taken drugs and he has never provided a positive result drug test. That is what I meant yeah, I'm clued up...

I've used something similar as a Firefox plug-in.. I forget the name though. It worked ok then.

Thing is it's alright when people view bbc.co.uk/football but how many people view our index for any length of time?

He came in for one game last season (might've been season before) away at Spurs and made a complete hash of a kick resulting in a goal. Poor lad must dread leaving the bench.

Wasn't it something to do with the money owed from a previous transfer? Petit/Overmars /Syvinho/van Bronckhorst?

I was always puzzled why he came to England, any decent side should just kick him out the game ala Reyes.. Just look how our big Faye dominated him.

We used to play 11-a-side right from the off, suppose 7-a-side at junior level is better anyway, give a bit more time on the ball and then those kids who grow quicker don't have the massive advantage that they did back in the day - and advantage that disappears when they get to 16.
