I use to play hockey, not for Grimsby or British Rail as it was then, even played on the unholy turf of Cheapside!. It was very good when it was club matches meeting different people etc. then someone thought up a Lincolnshire league and enjoyment was left behind for the quest of 2 points


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

All of those plus the darts.

Me my wife and daughter went to see the Premier League Darts a few years ago at the Motorpoint Arena Sheffield as it was known then.

The place was rocking.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I play and coach American Football in the national league


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 can tell you what I don't watch - Premiership or Champions League football - it's rubbish. I rarely watch England, I prefer my wife's team Sweet Noran Iron - great fans.

Test cricket is the finest, then 50 over, then 20 : 20.

My time in Limerick got me into union and I used to be a regular at Leicester Tigers but TV has fecked around with KO times and now the English Premiership is looking like they are going to create a closed shop with no relegation for 4 years - another sport ruined. International rugby is still ok.

Not much else.

I play golf and enjoy sailing and kayaking. Whilst down South at University I played polo, and I love skiing in the winter. Although this years ski season has been a dead duck for obvious reasons

Pepsi Indian 20/20 crickets great, only motorsport worth watching is touring cars and golf and darts are not sports, ones a game to stop boredom in pubs (like dominoes/crib) and the other is making hard work of a nice walk by carrying or pushing a weight around with you

Interesting Fillipe. I done skiing once but on a dry slope in high Wycombe. Needed more balance than I initially thought .

Where do you go to ski in the winter?.
