    Remembering Colin Bell

    One of my managers at Arriva Durham is the nephew of the great man. Unfortunately he's a rag. However, another lad I work with lived in Hessledon when him and the manager were both kids and a relative of Colin's used to take him to every City game

    You are correct. The utd players surrounded the ref as they thought he'd given a free kick to City. The ref was Alan Wilkie. Used to be my boss at Durham FA. I made a habit of asking him regularly what he'd actually given the penalty for.

    I managed 28 books last year. Hope to smash that this year. I am on Goodreads and looked at my previous years. 2016 I managed 54 and ever since have read less each year

    Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    For me teams have worked out how poor our high line is. Anyone with an ounce of pace can beat it. Not helped one bit by the midfield having no pace and not supporting either the forwards or defence. Gundogan and Kovacic haven't worked as a pair at all. Added to this is the lack of chances...

    Support band you saw that blew away the headliner

    Mid 80s I went to see Faith No More at the Newcastle Mayfair. 2 support bands that night were The Red Hor Chili Peppers and The Wonder Stuff. All 3 were superb. Only about 50 folk there.

    Crystal Palace (A) - Sat 7th Dec, 15:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

    My racist friend who I suspect only came on board in recent years claims this is the worst City line up ever. Quite clearly not around in the 80s/90s

    Oakies Hip Replacement cancelled

    Wasn't going to miss the cup final. After all I have put up with it 7 odd years. The previous time I got bumped to the front of the queue as the Dr assumed I was a full time ref and needed to be fit for work purposes. Some you win....

    Oakies Hip Replacement cancelled

    I don't think that's an option. You have an epidural and then you feel nothing. The worst bit is putting the injection into your spine
