Well, possibly more understanding of exactly why the red mist descended what with the illness. Still best to have waited until after the final whistle (maybe France having won even better), then laid him out properly. Revenge is a dish best served cold and all that ... "I've got the passion but no idea of tactics - I'd be like a black Kevin Keegan." Ian Wright stakes his claim for the England managers job.

Watt light? Great series of reviews by the way

The usual sign of a bad injury is that the player doesn't wriggle very much. That's what's so farcical about most of it.

Do you refer to Arkansas Traveller? That's a great album. Also the first time I heard a note played made by JT - though I didn't know it at the time. I arrived there via the similar connection to the Hothouse Flowers.

BBC, via Zidane's agent apparently, was saying unspecified comment regarding his mother. Zidane didn't tell his agent exactly what it was. The thing is, he must have had alot of sledging before. You only have to go to a park and watch a pub side to hear all that goes on. Don't know why he would snap with all his experience. Still I say: should have got him in the head. Just once I would like to see an Italian who is actually injured. It might improve the acting skills of the rest of the team to see the real thing first hand.

Euro 2008!

A piece on his old mucker. On Keith Richards website you can listen to him answering fans questions. Some of the answers are in the expected slurred out there fashion, and quite funny.

It's just typical of the modern game - can't even hit the head with a head butt. Come back Norman Hunter, Chopper Harris, all is forgiven!

For the Lennon/McCartney songs, and I remember watching her TV shows with affection. It wasn't this one, but something like it, in about 1982. On vinyl for the purists!

Novelist Don DeLillo and rock writer Greil Marcus discuss his enduring mystique

Shopping trip. Always expect the unexpected!

He also owns Spartak Moscow, or one of the Moscow teams. The Chelsea training grown is a couple of miles away from where I live. John Terry has been seen in the local Pizza Express.

It has been known I like the slobby brother (or is it brother in law) - once a great turn on Coronation Street (a dustman lodger of Stan and Hilda Ogden - I have not watched Coronation Street since those days. All soaps are now convoluted incest and murder plots, rather than just a bit of gossip down the Rovers Return). The Ogdens house was just like my grandparents in Grangetown. Clouds of tobacco smoke in the back room, and World of Sport horseracing on the TV. Also, Geoffrey Hughes was the voice of Paul McCartney in Yellow Submarine. Speaking of comedies and soaps. Wendy Richards (the

No, thanks, that's all interesting stuff!

I'm hoping that everyone has seen it by now. It is brilliant.

It has yet to be confirmed to me that in this day and age, professional footballers with testicles are in the majority.

I'd like to see that film (like a series of linked videos covering his songs in English by other artists) "Jacques Brel is alive and well and living in Paris" again one day. Just caught it on TV ages ago and it left an impression. Also need to thank you for the recommendation on

Muse Interview

Hope all is well at home Easy going start for me too, though I seem to remember them getting some stick here. Followed by

That makes me think the answer is Cher (Sonny being the goofball sidekick), but that can't be right? Also: my answer: Port Sunlight Horticultural Society - their annual dance saw the first performance of the Fab 4 with Ringo having replaced Pete Best. 18th August 1962. http://magicalbeatletours.com/tour_wirral.htm#hulme

Puts Rooney in the shade - Boris Johnson tackles a German For the uninitiated, Boris Johnson is a Tory MP, a bit of a clown - think Monty Python upper class twit of the year competition - although the fact that he seems genuine, has little time for spin, and actually answers questions with wit and good humour wins him some points with me. He is playing in a charity celebrity/ex-footballers 'Legends' match just before the world cup. Seems like he went to a rugby school. Plus, he never even got a yellow card.
