Didn't help that Hoare and Lavale were gurning away in the background going "do it son, no-one will say nuttin" |

I remember seeing Bale play against us for Southampton before he went to Spurs and thinking he was unplayable insofar as he played everywhere but goalkeeper and looked better than anyone we had out there. The only other player I've seen with that kind of athleticism is Kyle Walker. Then again, Bradley Wright-in-your-handbag was playing and looked handy (sorry) so maybe we were just dogshìt. |

If that's "Liquidator" then possibly one of the seminal moments of my life was patiently telling a Chel*** fan that's a Harry J choon while he steadfastly maintained it was "Ian Drury (sic) or Suggs" When i showed him a picture of Harry J and the Allstars, a reggae band, from Jamaica, his reaction was like that bit in Star Wars when Luke realises his dad isn't quite the father figure he was hoping for. |

CST has also submitted evidence against the American company to the government's Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). In the letter, it said: "Many CST members are clearly infuriated by this connection and have written to us. Well, any semi-decent silk will immediately discredit this evidence by simply demonstrating that Chel*** fans are as literate as a moderately retarded cowpat, ergo the alleged missives never existed and the CST members in question were clearly infuriated by some other matter, such as non-white people or penis inadequacy. |

I've said it before after England games but I just don't get the hype about him. It's he a good footballer? Undoubtedly. Is he the best in any given position? Not for me. His stats are impressive and I'm sure they will be at Real but if you're a good footballer with time and space, they should be. Be interested to see how he copes with the likes of Nico Williams and Raphinha. I think Liverpool quietly letting him leave without trolley-dashing off for a replacement shows they think Connor Bradley is a good enough option at RB (when fit). And watching their fans having melters about his 'betrayal' is just gold... |

Great piece Dorse. My recollection of the "holiday romance" under Ainsworth was more like being detained in a Turkish prison and being repeatedly, brutally and monotonously sodomised (and despite the positive attitude I'd say Gaz felt the same). Can't help but agree though there's an utterly inexplicable calmness around the place these days. "Back in the day..." even a 5 game bad run had us breaking out the pitchforks and flaming torches. Now...meh. It's weird. |

I'd agree only Spurs look like changing the manager which tends to work out as well for them as it does for us. United are an absolute bin fire at the moment. |

I'm 10mins from Acton Main Line and I'd say it's been the best travel improvement since the Jubilee line. Biggest problem is when it goes wrong, it rarely goes "minor" wrong, more wrong in one of those bed-fouling incidents Northern uses to describe things like Begovic coming for a cross or Balogun sliding into challenges in his own area. |

Like that old adage of putting lipstick on a pig, Stratford is still a shìthole. |

You say "albeit Ireland" but pretty much all of the defenders in that squad are premier league players (not you Robbie Brady, nor you in another 9 games Ryan Manning). |

Shh, that's not aligned with "WORRA SENSATIONAL WEEK FOR THE BAIRN FROM BLYTH!!!!" Zesh Rehman wouldn't have looked out of place in this defence. |

Tax write-offs must likely. Personally I'd buy a football club so I could invite John Terry to be the guest of honour at half time. Unbeknownst to him, I'd make him swim through a 50m pool filled with penguin shìt before making him sùck off a tramp at the other end. Now that's a Super Sunday. |

Makes you look back fondly on the days you got admitted to hospital to get drugs pumped out of you. In all seriousness, wishing Dave a full and speedy recovery. |

He does indeed reference this very incident in his forthcoming autobiography "Four Cheeks, Two Cracks: The Andy Hinchcliffe Story" (available at all good car boot sales). |

Well the rules were there for us all. Unless you were the health secretary and fancied fingerblasting a colleague. |

We moved to action Acton about 16 years ago as I wanted to stay in West London (missus is from Croydon). You're more likely to find an affordable house on the moon than in the Grove, Shepherd's Bush was getting beyond our budget, Chiswick moreso (and not really my type of community). There was still value to be found in Acton and it's honestly one of the best moves we've made. Teevan's is indeed still there or "M Teevan" to give it it's full title which is either an unintentional or wonderful pun on the fact they literally hire empty vans. |
