Simulation is supposed to be a mandatory caution already. Though I cannot for the life of me remember the last person to get one.

3.Want You Dead. Peter James. Standard book in the Grace series. I think this is book 11 in the series and they are beginning to be a bit sameish. 3/5

Thought Scholes was funny last night. Said that for 82 minutes this was utds worst performance of the season. True. Then he asked Amorim why the team played with no enthusiasm for 80 minutes. Now I had had a few but didn't Amorim seemed to respond by saying that they had enthusiasm just no...

Yesterday I watched The Swimmers on Netflix. Very good and thought provoking. Then I watched the original True Grit. Must be 40 years since I last seen it. You forget how good John Wayne was at these roles. Didn't realise either that he was in the 1st Star Wars film.

Was listening to talksport (I know) and Emmanuele Petit was on. For some bizarre reason he was asked what he thought of Amorim and his impact on utd. He basically said Amorim has taken utd backwards and will be gone in 18 months.

And yet in November I was at a referees meeting which Andy Madley attended. He confirmed that PGMOL were against decisions being relayed to the crowd

A friend of the sister in law was in the queue at the time Beckham suddenly appeared. She confirmed he was never at the back of the queue and security let him in a lot closer to the front as they thought it would be a security issue.

I only understood about 1 in 3 words Spit said yesterday he was that excited.

About 6 years ago my son was lead guitarist for a punk band called the Antiseptics. Asked me if I fancied going with him to one of his gigs in Sheffield to which I declined. The next day he rang and said that I would really have liked the headline band. It was only the New Model Army. If...
