Not a bad time of year, really. Means she may get the odd half-term birthday, I think?

All sung multiple times each game, along with other sings that have been around for donkeys' years. Every classic has to start off as a new chant at some point...

One game this season (can't remember which), UFS started singing the Imperial March at them. Hope it catches on.

Thank you so much!

My daughter was born on Sunday. She's amazing, as is her mum.

Really nice bloke who seems to remember everyone he's ever met through Leicester. Glad he's doing alright.

Fair play, sounds a top trip! Finally round to doing Ultra by Tobias Jones on audiobook at the moment, presume a few of the characters were in that Cosenza end!

99.9% of whom would also stay until the end.

Can you imagine how horrendously bant-tastic the Munter Hunters FC group chat must be. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/football/2024/feb/09/grassroots-football-club-boycotts-cup-tie-over-opponents-horrific-misogyny

Met this guy by chance in Bochum's club shop, think it must have been 12 years ago. That was his first trip over there! Enjoyed following his trips online ever since. Some effort. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-68228740?fbclid=IwAR0o__Fel8CHi9z-I2FSii1IdX8zIZL8_9dFcZcLFzhsDu5WDys5ZgtjDO0

At least we'd be singing that chant accurately for once...

They were 3-0 down. We're battering teams every week while top of the league. Pound for pound, given the position we're in, we're up there with the worst. Even our own manager's had to call us out for it.

Never takes long for the mask to slip...

Oh, I get all that. But the fact they hadn't even assigned an officer to the case almost a week after it was reported is shocking. Like I say, good to know coppers at the ports are on their brief.

No, not yet.

They're clearly fairly sharp down at the ports, compared to their relatively unhelpful colleagues over at Enderby...

The car has been recovered from a shipping container in Southampton. Thanks to all for your concern. My mum's sunglasses had also been chucked out of the car on Aylestone Road, but were found by a nice lad who returned them. A few of dad's tools and some other bits are still unaccounted for, but just amazed it's turned up.

Weird to read more than 20 articles a week of stuff you consider false news. If you want good journalism, it needs paying for somehow...

That'll be once in a blue moon for them. It was their biggest game for years. There's no chance that same section's like that week in, week out when they're playing Rotherham, Preston etc.

Remind you of anyone?

Go down that road and it'll end up becoming more of a closed shop in terms of who can win it than it is now. Nothing better than seeing the top teams knock each other out early doors.

Yeah, great shout!

Since November, I've been commuting to Barrow from the north. That road down from Hoton offers some lovely views of Beacon Hill on the right and a glimpse of Prestwold Hall on the left. Really pleasant and makes you proud. Anybody want to suggest a nicer stretch of road in the county?

Yep, fair's fair. Maybe their home humbling at the World Cup has finally made the BCCI realise cricket's only going to be worth anything in future if you at least try to make things competitive to some degree.

Anodyne thing to say, I know, but imagine the uproar if a Labour Prime Minister did this.
