  1. When Thomas Muller missed in the Euros 2016 penalty shoot out it was the first one missed by Germany in a shoot out in 34 years. Going back to Stielike in 1982.
  2. Have to disagree a bit. We all know Southgate is not what England need. But I'm sure players view is different. Ollie must be thinking what have I got to do to get into that squad. And how long before the good youngsters in the squad start thinking if Ollie can't get in perhaps a move is best. Can you imagine what it feels like to see Rashford and Maguire in the squad if you're Ollie and Ezri. And what must other players think if 4th place villa get maybe 1 place and awful crappy Man Utd end up with 4. Just make you wonder.
  3. Is your signature your preferred pronouns?
  4. The commentators said that Brighton still have to play all of the top three. So that Makes it us Brighton spurs and man u. Them top three have got some tough games coming up especially if they have to play each other. Anything could happen.
  5. Hugo Sanchez scored 38 goals for Rael Madrid in 1989. Each one was a first time one touch finish.
  6. The most watched premier game ever was everton v man city 2003. Each team had a Chinese player, Li Tie and Sun Jihai. It was shown on a free channel in china.
  7. Two communist talking If you had 2 houses, would you give me one Sure of course I would. If you had 2 cars would you give me one. Of course, your a friend, I would give you one. If you had 2 chickens would you give me one. No Why not? I've got 2 chickens.

    Unai Emery

    But the club would pay for that, if he knew it was from just from fans, well that would be pretty rare in sport.

    Unai Emery

    I think I've got a different idea. Rather than a lifetime contract, he probably wouldn't want that, he may want to manage Spain one day how about a 3 year rolling contract. So he's always got 3 years employment. And if anyone wants him they are going to have to pay big bucks.

    Unai Emery

    Well maybe a fan could set up a go fundme for him. And if we could raise a grand there is a small vinyard outside his home town. Perhaps a few cases of case villa unai in his name. I think it would mean a lot to him if he knew it was from the fans.
  11. What's the difference between a fridge and an arsehole A fridge doesn't fart when you take the meat out.
  12. For the younger members of our wonderful family and in this I would include all of us. I can't say Sid has been our greatest post war player because that would be unfair to my dad grandad, great grandad, great great grandad and great great great grandad. Such is our history, post war does It mean post WW2, WW1 the Boer war and Rorke's Drift. It means the Crimea and the charge of the light brigade. Because that's how long we've been around, some players and fans were before sevastebol. But he's in the top 3
  13. Maybe as England did to highlight dementia the players could play with no names on the shirt.
  14. Having recently watched one love. It got me thinking, how would those people who fear being misgendered react to a rastafari, whose use the phrase I and I which means everyone exists as I people, if they use the wrong pronoun.
  15. There is a second part to that story. My best mate was offered a job to run a bit bonded warehouse in islington. Really old company been around for well over a hundred years. This company had loads of customers. Not the big chains like asda and the like, but plenty of co op and local corner shops, plus some restaurant chains. It also stored plenty of product from nobility. Often people like Lord x would phone up and ask for a couple of cases of vintage claret for the shooting season. Now in a warehouse it's wall to walk racking. And people would look for a particular vintage, and if they picked a 76 instead of an 82 and realised they had made a mistake and put the bottle down in the next bay, which might only be a foot away. Well the next time Lord x asked for a stock check, they only checked his bay, if bottles went missing well they credited the lord. Now heading this had been going on for decades, loads had been written off. Not just the expensive stuff, but cheap shop cheap wine. When Mitch went in he thought this was a load off balls. So he organised a complete stock check for everything. They found loads of stuff they didn't know they had. Including some vintages from the 30s. Now these had already been paid for. The really expensive stuff they found he contacted the board and he put through Sothebys any thing under £500 he disposed of he did this by mixed bottles in a case £20. I get the phone call, Col I need you to spend £200, what on? Mixed cases of wine, Why, I'm the boss I can't buy any. So we split it 10 each. Now in it we did get some £500 bottles and also some cheap shite. Nisa sweet white wine is the finest thing I've found to clear flies from a windscreen. What there was though in my cases were 7 bottles of midori melon liquer. Tried it, sickly shite. Tried it Ice cold, sickly shite. I started giving it away. Come round my house have a bottle, nah don't like it. Your having one anyway. I have it all away bar the one id opened, this was down to the last dredges. So why do I mention this. Well after dinner with Juan the ladies of the house clearing up, the two of us retire to the verandaf. Warm evening full belly good company. Juan asks it I like margaritas. Yeah really nice. He makes the finest drink I've ever tasted. I told him it's fantastic but doesn't taste like normal margarita. No Col I add my own special ingredient. What's that Juan Midori
  16. I worked a while in San Diego plenty of Mexicans. Had cause to promote one. Great guy, anyway the next day he came up to me a bit sheepish and said his wife had insisted that he invite me for dinner. I gladly accepted. He told me to come in a cab. I turned up and it was just like a movie, they all greeted me, then the young boys were went to their rooms the mom and daughter sent me and Juan out to the verandah and cold beers brought out. We just chatted on the swing chair, mainly about football (he was Mexican doesn't call it soccer) when dinner was served it was some of the finest authentic Mexican food I've ever tasted.. He'd heard of Aston Villa. Good lad
  17. That's because they tend to look after their staff.
  18. One other thing which maybe useful for the future. When the cops came around, they said they already knew who it probably was, and they had evidence from the other break in. Bear that bit in mind. When they called me later saying they had found the car they asked if they could check for fingerprints etc. I said yes. Now I would say no. The car was less than a mile from my house, but now was at a different location. Two things I had to pay a £100 towing fee Whatever they use looking for prints never comes out no matter how many washes or waxes, you could still see the marks.
  19. When we got robbed the kids were in primary school. They were a bit upset. Silly sod who did it rented a one bed flat in the village, with the help of the authorities, hed just been released 2 days. Feds came round and 4 hours later they nicked him. He robbed the house next door and our house. Took our TV and car. Found my car on his drive. Now this all happened on school sports day. So I went to watch. All the kids were lined up in different teams as the parents walked past. I saw my daughter close to the front of her line. I shouted across to her that they had caught the burglar and the whole school cheered. Both kids were ok after that.
  20. Bloody horrible feeling. People can be shite
  21. What do you say to a non binary person who's just been misgendered They're ther.
  22. And they didn't pay a lot for players. Vardy came from non league, Dewsbury Hall came from the national trust.
  23. You don't need a parachute to go skydiving. You only need one of you want to go twice
  24. The blackcurrant one by Hendrix is amazing.
