I see fax machines are being banned by the NHS. I wonder how long football clubs will continue to use them especially around transfer deadline day?

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

There must be a couple of fax salesmen logged in. Two red crosses for this!


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

If you are going to bring back anything bring back Teletext. The tension of watching those pages flick around with football scores has no equal in today's world.

I remeber when Graham Rodger was sacked I was at my Nans house and she had shouted me though to the other room about the news and had to sit through 6 long agonising pages to see it for myself


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

I miss when  the only way to find  a mid week score was to listen to NEWS AT TEN,


Right at the end of the news they would say, " Here are tonights football results "


Then I could go to bed happy or feeling down depending on what Town had done.
