Liked to chalky’s fact above about the Titanic.

Not sure these are all facts, but views expressed on a key historical tragedy.  The Titanic would probably have stayed afloat if it could have hit the iceberg head-on where the structure was very strong.

Coupling up to the iceberg ( which was floating and stable) would have enabled people to find
Temporary sanctuary on the ice (with suitable protective covers and clothing).

Ok, non-football, but Scunthorpe are sinking faster than the Titanic into deep, dark, icy cold  
waters.

But his son was briefly our reserve keeper in the 2000’s

Further research into this story reveals that former Town reserve goalkeeper John Lukic jr is now a doctor. One of the more illustrious post-Town careers.

“Dr Gunning will see you now…”.  Can you imagine?

Zeinab Badawi is only 62 years old (and has twenty hotels), which is the same age as Rupert Everett, Hugh Laurie and Sean Bean.

Regardless of the length of the bowling during a test match the commentators will always describe the bowling as ‘too short’.
