    Ticks/Tourette's in children

    Yes - my step-son (10) is the same. He has had an ADHD diagnosis. Always making odd noises and getting over-excited and then starts stimming. Clapping often. It takes a lot of getting used to if you are used to kids without it.

    Think Borat must have been based on Antic's accent!

    City clubcall?

    I must admit to a moment of shame in December 1989. I visited my sister in West Ruislip on a day when City were playing away at Southampton. I sneakily rang Clubcall on her phone. I then went out for the afternoon. When I came back in the evening I realised I hadn't hung up properly. She has...

    FA Cup R5 | Bristol City (A) | Tue 28 Feb 20:00 | - Pre Match Thread

    That takes me back. I won that quiz back in early 1981 and based on the fact the prize was always tickets for whichever of us or Utd were playing at home the next week sat back to expect 2 tickets for the 4th round Cup tie with Norwich in the post. Imagine my surprise when I received a hardbook...

    FA Cup R5 | Bristol City (A) | Tue 28 Feb 20:00 | - Pre Match Thread

    He seems to have been around BC for years by then but didn't appear in my Panini album for some reason. Big old centre back.

    FA Cup R5 | Bristol City (A) | Tue 28 Feb 20:00 | - Pre Match Thread

    Both BC's goals against City in that season (79/80) by defender David Rodgers. Flower Power got sent off in the away game.

    Left Backs

    Incidentally, is Benjy Mendy back at the club and training or has he been permanently suspended?

    Paul Power - Tales of Blue

    Book did sell him in early 1978. He came back about Feb 1980 and left after relegation. Was looking in top form when he snapped his achilles in late 1981.

    Paul Power - Tales of Blue

    No idea. Funny how facts often become myths. A number of the old team say in these interviews or books "Big Mal sold Dennis Tueart, Joe Royle, Mike Doyle etc" or (as Paul P) "Mal bought Kazzy Deyna" when these kind of things preceded him but fit the story of bad sells and worse buys. Paul seems...

    Paul Power - Tales of Blue

    "Flower Power" - was the perfect nickname! Didn't like him in the late 70's as he was non-flash and he grew on me in 1981 before becoming associated with disaster. Seems a nice chap though. Love the way these players had better things to do than remember the trivia of their playing days (as I do!)

    Hanging a large picture finding wooden wall studs

    Trying to hang a giant 1970's Italian movie poster ("quattro fogli"). It's pretty heavy in the frame. Trying to locate wooden studs in the wall to put some hooks or something in. However my stud finder only bleeps at certain spots and not eg continuously down a vertical or horizontal line as I...

    Paul Moulden's book "Lethal"

    For those of a certain age a Steppy book could be interesting. For instance, it could explain what Malcolm Allison originally intended to do with the likes of Steppy, Shinton, Silkman etc and what then changed his mind such that they would be completely discarded from the squad resulting in a...

    Sky 1990 World Cup Documentary

    Just been watching this. Looked at the England 22. We had no less than 4 goalies: Shilton, Beasant, Seaman and Woods. Anyone know why so many? Seems a waste of a place.
