Re: Now he's gone, who's next?

There's no experienced and realistic candidates I'd be really happy with.

For that reason, I'd go with a lower league manager. It worked with BSA.

Paul Tisdale at Exeter is worth a go. Long deserved a place in a higher division.

Re: Fabrice Muamba

Went to the Exeter-Wycombe match tonight and much the same as everywhere else. Applause before the match, and sporadic chanting mid-match. I even heard a group chanting Muamba's name in the city centre afterwards.
The support from around the country is amazing.

Not joining but returning

Stopped posting here a couple of years ago when I didn't have quite so much time. Have been lurking for the last couple of months, and my username still works, so have decided to join in again. Am still in the footballing wilderness of Devon. Not many chances to get up to Bolton, but still try to se...

Do we have to have seen the movie?

1492 Conquest of Paradise is a great piece of music, but I've never seen the film.

This is going to sound like a 'back in my day' at the age of 23, but here goes: Mobile phones. Not mobiles in general - just there effect on shop products. You used to be able to buy chocolate bars/drinks/crisps etc. with a 'look inside to see if you've won.' Now it's just 'look inside to find a num...

What about standing in the queue in the Co-op behind the woman (usually!) who gets right up the till and then says "Ooh, I suppose I'd better try and find my purse!

'Back to school' adverts.

Just after the summer holidays start, the shops always start advertising goods for school. Let people enjoy the holidays!

I left school five years ago, and this still annoys me.

I'm planning to queue up overnight to try and get show court tickets for Wednesday. Has anyone done this before or have any tips? Got onto court one after 16 hours of queueing. From what I saw, Murray has a good chance of getting to the final . Despite the speed, Roddick's serve was often vunerable...

Never lived in Bolton - support through family connections.
Five years in Hampshire, three in New Jersey, then in Wiltshire for ten.
Four years at Exeter Uni, now working in Exeter.
Long way from Bolton, but am doing the job I wanted since I was ten.
