I’d always imagined him as principal bassoon.
Prickly, gloomy detective living with his demented, alcoholic father, still tormented by the ghastly unsolved murder of his ex-wife - Inspector Nicolas Madsen.
Steve Cook - owner and sole employee of a snack wagon in a lay-by on the A31 on the edge of the New Forest -“Steve Cooks”. |

Poor old Sheffield Wednesday are trying hard but can’t keep the ball. Derby weren’t much better but King Dave II scored a cracker. |

What annoyed me about Jones was the huge gulf between his own opinion of himself (thinking he should have been made player/manager) and the lack of ability and intelligence he showed every time he set foot on the pitch. Tosser.
I can’t say I hated Leon Jeanne, more a terrible waste of talent and opportunity. Tyler Roberts doesn’t belong on this list because although he was a bad-tempered, blame-shifting waste of space, we only had to pay him for a year. Pellicori? Didn’t make any impression at all. Bob Malcolm was at least funny and mercifully only passing through, unlike Zesh Rehman, who had neither of those two moderately redeeming features. [Post edited 15 Dec 18:11]

A Bristol City supporting colleague was there this time two years ago. If they can sell 9,000 tickets so should we. The Robins won in a replay, which we won’t have the chance to do. |

I won’t be chanting his name, but will certainly applaud if he’s welcomed before the game. |

Interviewed by Jim White, perhaps someone with a share token can oblige. Because it’s Jim White, there’s one mention of QPR, about ten of Roy Keane. |

Very funny, only remember him making one show a year, on Boxing Day. Always a treat. Amazed he was still going to be honest. |

A lot of the Holmesdale identity is Not Millwall, leading up to the banner, sorry Tifo, at their recent cup game, Knuckle Draggers Go Home. If they’re Roundheads, that must make us Cavaliers. |

Thread | Palace on Palace
at 23:37 11 Dec 2025
I met a friend for a drink last night with a startling story of following Palace in Europe. He’s a real Palace diehard and decided they would achieve a lifetime’s ambition and pick one away day in Europe, settling on Strasbourg a couple of weeks ago. He went a day early, had a great night, locals very friendly, all cursing joint club ownership (Strasbourg are a vassal state of Chelsea). His brother was coming out with his teenage son on match day and they agreed to meet at 5 in a bar in the square set aside by the police for Palace fans.
He arrived at a quarter to five and it was mayhem, brawls everywhere, police charging around. Palace on Palace.
He’s been telling me for a while about friction at Palace games. The Holmesdale Ultra scene, love it or hate it, has attracted a different group of supporters to what you might think of as “legacy Palace”, but he calls “Addlestone*”. They stay away from each other at home but are forced together at away games. He told me there were occasional tensions in the last couple of years over one group wanting to fly Palestine flags and another insisting this was nothing to do with Palace.
Anyway, the two groups came together in the square, insults led to an attack (apparently on an Asian fan), and then a free-for-all. My friend warned his brother off and they hung out elsewhere until kickoff. Roll forwards a couple of hours, Palace have thrown the game away, the police have locked them in for 45 minutes to clear the area, and it all happens again. They’re finally let out to march back to town between lines of riot police. Their hotel was a bit off their route and they were going to ask the police to let them down a side road, but someone in front of them had the same idea and beats them to it. The policeman ponders for a while, then gets a can of pepper spray out and unloads on the fans. Fresh disorder breaks out, at which point our heroes scoot further up the road and slip off at a now unguarded corner further up.
My friend described the whole experience as at the same time miserably dispiriting and totally exhilarating. But he gave Shelbourne a miss.
* Sorry, New Addington, noisy pub.

Any hardened drinkers fans of Tweedy Pubs on YouTube? A friend put me on to him recently. He goes round London picking out distinctive looking pubs, talking about their history and architecture. Very engaging and dare I say moreish, I loved his one on Kilburn, some strong connections for me there. Not his fault he looks like David Cameron’s younger brother. Apparently he does some bizarre wild camping videos too, Tweedy outdoors. |
