    Fine Margins, rub of the Green, and Shocking Officials

    I'm waiting for someone to put together a youtube compilation of this season's non-penalties; we must be well into double figures by now.

    Last 5 Years Trophy Count

    Exactly this. You can make up any spurious statistic you want to say who has been the best over a given period, but in the end, what's fantastic is that we have those 4 trophies, and if Chelsea (or any other club that has similar spending power) is anything to go by, it's just the start of the...

    Hyde FC Sold To Supporters

    Hang on, I think I've still got 3 £1 shares from the original Hyde United, handed down to me by my granddad!

    The Wit & Wisdom of Nigel

    The Pat Murphy interview is hilarious... I don't think either of them come out of it with any glory! And I can't believe no-one's mentioned the bizarre sideline throttling and shirt-pulling of McArthur(?) earlier this season. One of the strangest manager reactions I can remember seeing!

    The race for the Top 4 - RUNNERS UP, a game to spare

    Re: The race for the Top 4 Let's see how long it takes MOTD to take us off the opening credits!

    The Bbq thread.

    Think our BBQ needs its annual overhaul.... scraping off the mouldy grease from last year and leaving it burning for an hour to decontaminate! Saturday's due to be good up here, so will no doubt get the first al fresco meal of the year on the go. Mrs lazza makes a mean curried chicken marinade...

    The race for the Top 4 - RUNNERS UP, a game to spare

    Re: The race for the Top 4 Just got to avoid finishing 4th, that's all... 4th means a play-off and being below the rags, so a double whammy! Having said that, I would prefer 2nd, and don't agree with those saying 2nd or 3rd makes no difference. Even despite a largely shite 2015 so far, it...

    Joke thread

    An English cat, named One Two Three and a French cat, named Un Deux Trois, decided to have a swimming race across the Channel. The English cat won because Un Deux Trois cat sank

    Coarsest ladies you have come across

    Haha! Love it! I remember working for a summer as a kitchen porter (at an army camp in South Wales, quite bizarrely). Anyway, one of the lasses working there was from Hyde, and she was about the crudest person I've ever met!! She was actually quite a nice (kind) person, and very funny, but I...

    'Wow' Moments in Video Games

    I was showing my two 7-year-olds this on youtube at the weekend, as they spent a couple of hours playing lots of different games on my iPad, and then asked what iPad games I used to play when I was their age.... giving me an opportunity for a bit of a "when I was your age..." ramble, that...

    A little bully: Advice please.

    It's a tough one to answer, but it sounds as if your lads are not particularly aggressive, and are unlikely to get away with "giving it back" as other posts have suggested. This is pretty much what I was like as a kid, and I got bullied by an older kid around the local estate from time to time...

    United Thread 2014/15 (continued)

    That Adrian Durham article has to be wind-up, surely? It is just about the funniest thing I have ever read from a so-called professional journalist. It's either a parody of unrivalled genius, or the most pathetically brown-nosing, obsequious, shoddy, biased pile of shite I've ever seen.

    Singapore/Malaysia

    Been to Singapore a couple of times. As already said, the cable car over to Sentosa island is great - and Sentosa island itself is quite a lot of fun, a kind of mini theme-park with beaches, gardens, shows - and the southernmost point in continental Asia (so they claim). But my main advice...

    'Wow' Moments in Video Games

    Yes, I finished Riven but never got to the end of the third one. Funnily enough, although I hardly ever play games now, and can't imagine having the time to spend on something like that, I've somehow ended up part of the crowd-funding for the original Myst developers' new project, called...

    'Wow' Moments in Video Games

    That lift that you had to step out of before it descended which had levers on top of it. I reckon we wasted a week on that, and it was so bloody obvious!

    80,000 might die ... Antibiotic resistance

    I don't want to downplay this, but there are a good number of development drugs not far off launch that combat MRSA

    The Stone Roses/Ian Brown

    Exactly this. I feel incredibly lucky to say that Spike Island was my first ever gig! Yes, the sound was shite, the day was far too long with crap support acts, but the experience was still probably the "coolest" thing I've ever done and almost certainly changed me...! The finale (last two...

    'Wow' Moments in Video Games

    Haha, yes, you're right. I remember the three of us playing it from getting in each afternoon until 3 or 4 in the morning, then going off to work / college the next day, and then all coming home with ideas how to crack the latest puzzle, as we'd all been thinking about it all day!

    'Wow' Moments in Video Games

    Not really a video game, and really not at all in the genre of most of the above, but I remember being awestruck when I played Myst. Hard to believe it's over 20 years ago when me and my house mates started playing it, and then sat up to 3 or 4am for a whole week trying to break some of the...
