I've lost the plot - I agree with Graham Poll

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/7023193.stm Article here about the FA looking to tackle the "discipline" problems in the game with action at the lower levels - Junior football and the like. As a young 'un bought up with Rugby Union and Cricket as my main sports, I never could understand the...

Joey Barton - Humble as ever

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_city/7025982.stm I read this and it made me laugh a lot....apparently the good form at Citeh isn't down to the finer points of getting SGE as Manager and only peripherally anything to do with some major investment in the Club. No - it's all down t...

Everyone should study Latin - it's good for the soul. I ended up taking it to A-level in the end but I will admit that part of me wishes I'd become more proficient in French or German. I heard the other day that Latin is still compulsory for all German kids... and given their language skills I'd sa...

A closer look at the appearance of a few of the Wigan "football fans" might remind me that the sport of football isn't number one on their priority list. Similar can be found in most football grounds in the country (and out of it). Anyone remember the netting that seperated the Manny Road stand fro...

Paterson is as good a kicker as wilkinson. His all round game however is not as good as Wilkinson in his pomp. However, they do play in different positions. Fullback/Wing Vs Full-back , cannot realy compare the 2. Give me the option of who I'd have in my team, and I'd have neither, although Wilkins...

Worse he was in second place and shunted by his teammate who was running third. I've never seen that happen with the safety car out.

Aye - I think you would have probably qualified from Englands group too.
