Went to my first non-league football match in a few years tonight. I forgot how much I love non-league football and sport at that level in general. I took in Beverley Town v Swallownest in the Northern Counties East League Division One. £3.50 to get in. There was myself and 271 other passionate supporters of amateur sport. It had a nice rain and someone's conservatory almost got smashed by a stray ball and someone had taken their dog to the game. It isn't non-league sport if there isn't a dog present. I really enjoyed it! I think I'll become a regular down there now!

The eighth (and hopefully last) Soviet leader. Under-appreciated by his own people, due to being relentlessly smeared and demonised by the kind of people who have turned Russia into what it is today.

Was just looking at the championship table and noticed Preston. Can't say I've seen a much stranger start to a season than the one they've had. Played 7, won 2, drawn 5, lost 0. Despite being undefeated they've only taken 11 from a possible 21 points but what's even odder is the fact all 5 draws, I will repeat all 5, were 0-0 and both wins were 1-0. So while sitting only mid table, Preston are undefeated and haven't conceded a goal yet, though they have only scored 2 themselves.

Yes they do. Then we'll know whether it is two cities, or a tube stop and a city that joins the river in the eliminators.

Yes I know Bob, but if the vibes are true that Dr Koukash is getting on board we can pay much more than the reduced fees that count towards the cap, as I said we have one overseas space at the moment if MacDonald goes we will have two, but the marquee(s) doesn't have to be overseas player's.

I'll bet Slade used to drive you crazee?

If everyone used the correct etymology, there'd be no local accents. Welleruwarthen.

Funny people women My wife said " If your bored why don't you make a bird table."? Now she is kicking off because she was only in 5th place.
