  1. Lived in Clevedon in the 60s and we used to go down to the sea front and watch the diggers and tipper lorries dumping all the snow over the sea wall onto the beach. Dial Hill very popular that winter, can't remember too many casualties but going up and down Park Road to school (never closed in those days) every day was quite dicey! Regularly peeled back the net curtains from the ice on the inside of the windows. As on another thread the optional cranking handle on my dad's Singer Gazelle was used a few times and that was after we'd dug the drive out again! Happy Days! Always amazes me when all the Chelsea tractors in London struggle with a couple of inches of slush.
  2. That 1 minute extra barely covered their goal kicks, they'll be far worse second half. Of course if the ref was on top?
  3. I saw this thread and had a vision of WBA running onto the pitch at 4.45, scoring 2 goals in extra time and city still losing!
  4. Cheap joke! He flashed a ball across the goal which presumably no one connected with?
  5. Sam Curran at £1.85m becomes the most expensive IPL player. Wonder when FIFA will catch on to this and create a summer International league where any professional player can be bid for to play for the German Panzers or for the English Almost but not quite teams? Any other suggestions welcome?
  6. 0 - 1 to Rangers. Edwards got a mention on the beeb website for "flashing past the goal" ? ?
  7. That was one of Danny Wilson's many faults! ?

    Ben didn't look too chuffed, they dragged him out of the bar to tell him he was second!

    And it's Beth Mead!
  10. The run for his goal in that match everyone seemed afraid to touch him, surely a missed timed tackle would have only meant a free kick?
  11. No of course not, a great game but I just hate the way some officials flag for offside and some don't. It wants simplifying again.
  12. Can we just go back to the old offside where players were offside whether they received the ball or not? This with the linesman putting up his flag and then putting it down again is stupid. The "offside" players are a distraction at best plus possible injuries occuring before play is stopped.
  13. The beeb's expense account will.be taking a battering, how many of them are over there?
  14. Ref buying every "foul" from Argentina.
  15. There are 3 Argentinian players already that could have been stretchered off. 2 head injuries, neither leave the pitch?
