    Was on the beat..

    The lady in question at least had some standards then. By the way, was this a job when you considered using your truncheon?

    You say she was moaning. Had he hit her with the spade?

    Osama Bin Laden is dead.

    Speaking as someone with kidney problems I'm rather glad there's a dialysis machine going spare right now. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.ebay.com/health/equipment/dialysis" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.ebay.com/health/equipment/dialysis</a> Just a shame the...

    The end of the dream

    Being a City fan for well over 40 years I'm a natural pessimist. No amount of oil money has really changed that view, it's so entrenched. I knew it couldn't last; the world would end to stop us winning some silverware and then going on to the inevitable global domination. What would it be...

    Emile Mpenza

    Thanks eshiers. I think he must have started the United game as I have found a programme from the first game of 2007/08 which confirms 9 league starts in 2006/07, which I think must have been: Chelsea (H) Boro (A) Newcastle (A) Charlton (H) Fulham (A) Liverpool (H) Villa (H) U****d (H) Spurs...

    Emile Mpenza

    Raging debate going on here in Burns Towers over how many games our former legend started, in both the league and cup during his oh so brief stay with us. Family pride at stake and all that; I'm going with mcfc.stats which suggest 17 but could do with some back up which will be there in...

    Overheard at today's game

    Oh I knew you weren't joking! I reckon there could be a job for you hosting a marriage guidance show on ITV4 where you listen to the bloke's problems off screen and then tell the wife how it is on air! You could start with Mrs Burns and sort one or two things out for me (I'll PM you all the...

    Overheard at today's game

    Fellow Bluemooner sat near me telling his mate that his wife knew he was married to City and that 'I can get a new wife, but can't get a new club - and she understands that'. It made me laugh anyway - wimmin's libbers are fighting a lonely and pointless battle in Tameside! Except in my house...

    Weather in Hadfield

    Going down Long Lane atm is a bit like going doen a ski ramp, I would imagine. For anyone coming from Glossop my advice would be to go via Hollingworth and give Broadbottom a swerve, as it's really quite treacherous right now. (from Bluemoon's motoring correspondent)

    Weather in Hadfield

    The trains ARE running at the moment. Getting to and from Broadbottom station is a problem due to the conditions; my advice would be to carry a very large shovel with you at all times (there is the odd Rag knocking about who might need assisting).

    Etihad flights

    Too right, they sound hideous and even at £21.99 (Super Saver Advance purchase Off-Peak Anytime) fare (one-way) I would have to think more than twice about travelling with them. I think I would have rather travelled with the Wright Brothers to be honest!

    London Firefighters strike

    A point that needs to be remembered is the issue of contracts - the argument worked for the banksters and their bonuses after all. Contract law underpins everything we do in life. For the bosses to say, in effect, 'sign this new contract or you're sacked' is way out of line. They'd get their...

    Talktalk

    I've been with them since 2006 and on the whole they've been OK. I'm sure everyone can give horror stories no matter what provider they are with and TalkTalk will be no different, but if it's cheap and cheerful you want they must take some beating - my total bill, for line rental, internet an...

    Etihad flights

    Did Melbourne last year - but the grandkids are out in Adelaide, in Glenelg, hence our time down there. I wasn''t allowed by my Sydney based cousin to go to what he and all his NRL mates sneeringly and offensively term GAYFL. What do you say to that, apart from it's completely inappropriate...

    Etihad flights

    Ha! Unfortunately they're old links as the offers referred to there are for flights booked by 30/06/10 - having said all that I've now found a later link which shows the deadline has been extended, but the original issue of how you get the discount is still not clear. The link if anyone else...

    Etihad flights

    I bet they weren't! But it wasn't your failt they sponsored the wrong club! Whilst I'm on, how does Etihad compare comfort wise against the likes of Cathay Pacific and Qantas, who are the next cheapest after Ryanair (sorry, China Airlines).

    Etihad flights

    I understand seasoncard holders can get a 10% discount on flights with the airline to places such as Sydney. This has been confirmed by the airline who basically said enter your card number on the booking section in the website and the discount will be taken off. It's worth £100 so is well worth...

    Djourou booking

    Just dug out this reply re Mr C from last year. It always comes in handy when he is reffing one of ours: However when one reads <a class="postlink" href="http://www.footballisfixed.blogspot.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.footballisfixed.blogspot.com</a> as...

    Djourou booking

    Oh there is! But nothing wrong with yours - your mega rant at the third goal was entirely justified, according to the Official Site: A bad day for City was compounded as time out ran when Bendtner made it three-nil despite the ball having gone out of play when Nasri made the crucial pass.
