Just binge watched Twisted Metal on Paramount what a ride. |

You could see enough hops in the bitter 
Oh and I meant the Rising Sun. |

Ah, more hops in Ben Truman. My local, The Riding Sun in Harlesden Road, was a Truman's pub. Always got well over the pint for a light and bitter or Ben and bitter on pay day. Four pints plus change from a ten bob note. |

Started reading Mick Heron’s Slow Horses series, didn’t think it would improve the excellent TV series but it does. Only another 5 books to go. He has written several other series as well which I will try. |

Nah, wasn't that bad it was only 6 goals.
Any road welcome to a much needed midfield player. |

If you like French mystery/crime dramas try Black Spot on Netflix. Very dark and mysterious set in an isolated town in a forested area in deepest France. There are 3 series and the characters and acting are very good. Especially if you like being immersed in France for an hour. |

First team I followed was Spurs in the days of Danny Blanchflower/Dave Mackay. LT ran a football special from Willesden bus garage to White Hart Lane. It was only a shilling for children and a tanner to get in the stadium. It was more a day out with mates to watch football so wasn't to fussed when the LT stopped running the special.
Apart from the odd England game at Wembley we rather preferred playing football in King Eddies park than watching it, until a friend suggested going to see the Rs at White City. Had no idea who they were or who they were playing. Two of us sat opposite about a couple of thousand supporters in this large soulless 100,000 plus empty stadium.
It wasn't until the Rs returned to Loftus Road I started going regularly, becoming completely hooked in the 60s with that team under Stock. Fantastic football especially Marsh who could take your breath away with his tricks and goals. Great days and been with them ever since. |

Man comes home to find his mate shagging is wife, so stabs the fecker to death. His wife says "carry on like that and you'll have no mates left". |

Sad, RIP indeed. Gordon Jago was the one who stabilised the team and brought success after the mess of managers following Alec Stock. I often wonder if we had gone on to win the league if he had still been here instead of Sexton. Who knows? |

Yup up to episode 6. I see series 5 of Slow Horses is coming on 24 September. We don’t half make good crime/spy series, as do the French and Scandis. |

Good so far, only watched a couple of episodes. Saw the original Danish series a few years ago on the Beeb 4 Saturday night Scandi slot. It was a lot darker. |

If the kids and teens need orchestrating then good luck but us old gits and plebs are happy to sit and watch the game and swear a lot at the players, management and officials. Occasionally jumping up when we score. |

“..., being able to combine physicality with high-level ball carrying"...
Talk about bollocks speak. Blimey the balls aren't that heavy and he only needs to stick it under his arm or put it in a bag? |
