These two. Palace shades it. I think. No, hold on. Er. Yes. Palace it is.

Saw one this evening in PE24

VAR I could live with the other irritants but VAR can **** off. I never wanted it and it's turned out even worse than I expected.

Traffic was great today on my trip from Lincolnshire. Plenty of empty spaces around us in the North stand but not surprising on a bank holiday weekend when the fixture was moved late.

We're the shareholders

Went to the away leg but listened to the home leg on the radio. Don't remember ever being so tense. Luckily I had some vodka to hand to settle the nerves; one shot per successful penalty! Odd that some of our best memories are a 91st v 92nd 1-1 draw and a league 1 play off semi final!

How about "no, have doubts we'll get any more points"? I only saw 1 league game last season thanks to long COVID so I'm grateful to be seeing any football and despite an 8 hour round trip I'm still hopeful of making the final 3 home games. Points in any of those games would be wonderful. And I...

Seems odd having a de Zerbi team and formation that picks itself

Me too. Travelling in hope rather than expectation but that's part of the fun.

I checked IFAB law 11 and it has a definition that the play is the first point of contact.

I think that's where I'm headed. I believe that voting should be compulsory given our long struggle for a universal franchise. But I cannot bring myself currently to vote for any of the options. To be fair my old constituency only ever had four candidates and I don't know what the option will be...

We moved from Orpington to Lincolnshire last year and have gone from basically pigeons and magpies to a whole range of birds. Last summer a young spotted woodpecker found the nut feeder and is a regular visitor again this year. I did try a bird table but that disappeared in a cloud of rooks and...

I understand the resentment at City's success but don't share it. Surely we can all rejoice in a Palace defeat as City have plenty of games still to lose?

The NFL isn't the model that's being touted. The NBA, which is, does seems to allow you to keep spending and just pay higher amounts of 'tax'. I say "seems" because I'm new to the subject and it seems crazily complicated. The USA has a thing for trying to keep sports competitive but this sounds...

.22/.303/SLR/handgun in the ATC. Shotgun at the fairground at Le Mans. Useless at all of them.

This is where I am. It's one thing to have an ambition of CL qualification and another thing entirely to have a plan to make it happen. There are 9 other clubs that have greater resources than us. In a professional team sport that is always going to tell in the end. So without some means of...

From that list I would probably choose Murray at Wimbledon, with the Rugby WC a close second. But for me, Wiggins in the yellow jersey leading out Cavendish in Paris for a British team is a clear winner.

Loved Ducados, but then Marlboro Red were my usual brand. At least no-one else would take them!

He did a lot well and some he could have done better but it's a hard job when half the players on the pitch are doing their best to press the limit on the rules. One does also have to remember that the guidance for the UEFA competitions is different from the PL. I'm confused by attitudes to the...

What about 4-0 and win on penalties?
