Savinho must be the worst Brazilian in the EPL since the era of Jo Silva. But at least Jo who featured in a World Cup got a few goals for us in the Europa league and then for Everton when he went out on loan. Any chance of swapping Savinho and Kalvin Phillips in the January sales to Forest Green...

Donald - where's yer troosers by the great Andy Stewart. Any video please?

10 changes, replacements by definition mainly second string, is never a good move and this will have cost us our top 8 spot after tonight's games. In this stage of the competition home games should be won, possibly a draw against an elite team (Madrid, Bayern, PSG) would be acceptable...

Jimmy Cliff also starred, as well as sang, in the film "The harder they come" in 1972. This was the very 1st film to be wholly made by Jamaica and he did a very good acting job as a singer caught up in the narcotics trade. It was also a wider international hit.

Actually shout out for Belarus who really helped Scotland to qualify. After losing their 1st 3 games by plenty (1-5 Greece A, 0-2 Scotland H, 0-6 Denmark H) and were the group whipping boys they finally grew a pair and gave Scotland a tight game in Glasgow and secured fighting draws with Denmark...

I do remember his testimonial in (April 1964?).The teams were a combined City and United side versus an all England X1. Matthews, Finney, Bobby Moore and Banks played for the latter. Bert wasn't first choice then - Harry Dowd was but Trautmann showed all his goal keeping skills. City were...

Liverpool now 5 defeats in only 11 games already. Looks like they've run their course to retain their title. They never really seriously challenged. With Arsenal's slip up we can start to hunt them down yesterday. Doku completely unplayable but why pull him off for underwhelming Savinho?

Agreed - bloody awful beer - Greenalls. We used to enscribe on the bog walls in indelible marker - "Flush harder lads - we really need you - the Brewery" only Watneys red barrel came close to that shite.

Even Huddersfield's consolation goal was scored by one of our former players - Andy May

If ex-Prince Andrew had any sense of honour he should retire to a locked room with a single malt and a loaded revolver, but I'm not holding my breath.

Which clowns thought it was the height of fashion to produce ripped jeans for fucks sake. They might as well have gone the whole hog with ripped sweaters, jackets etc?

Almost 20 years ago there was an internet joke which showed Captain Troy Tempest in his cabin at sea saying "Shit we've just run over Steve Irwin!" - the well known naturalist and croc hunter whose heart was fatally stabbed by a stingray.

As a side issue Nicholas Cage was a nephew of FFC who lobbied hard for Cage to get a substantial role in the Cher flick Moonstruck. (Cage's 1st film). Nepotism? Hell yeah.

Sofia Coppola got the gig as the original choice Winona Ryder dropped out due to 'nervous exhaustion' (breakdown possibly at the end of her relationship with Johnny Depp). The surname should give you a clue. The director Francis Ford Coppola was a relative. Sofia wasn't an actress and gave a sub...

We used to refer any fit bird - bangs like a shithouse door in a gale
