Kane did it in 110 games. Lofthouse did it in 33 games. I'll leave that with everyone.

We've had defeats but it's a long time since I've felt this despondent after one. I've seen the post match interviews put up on SM and I can't be arsed watching them because I know the same lines will be spouted out. I did see SS record since he came here and it surprised me how bog standard it is. Ok, he had to work with what he had early on. But in the summer he was given the go-ahead to get rid and get in his players. He's done that. Everything is now on him and his staff. There's no Evatt fallout anymore. At times it's all right. But it's been average and awful a lot more. Everything about yesterday was dreadful. The majority got their wish and wanted to see an end of Evatt-Ball. Be careful what you wish for. IE downfall was his stubbornness. SS needs to sit his staff and himself down and have an honest assessment about themselves and look at their approach and faults. An orchestra is only as good as the conductor. I'm a patient man and willing to give folk more time than they probably deserve. But the line in the sand got a lot closer after yesterday.

I remember watching that. It was a live Sunday afternoon match on ITV.

Stadiums will be full. Don't worry about that. I normally book a week (or two) off work early in a World Cup so I can catch as many matches as possible. No point with this one. I'll probably be watching in bed for most of it. I'll get some stamina training in when the Ashes start in November.

We've not lost since the last final in New Zealand 4 years ago. We would have won that if we hadn't of had a man sent off with 20 minutes to go. Anyway. I like watching the women's game. Well, England's internationals. It helps that we are brilliant. And it also helps that I don't know half of what's going on with the rules and tactics. That goes for the men game as well. Well done Roses. SPOTY team of the year award should be very interesting. I hope the ladies cricket team make it a full house later this month.

We won ugly, and deserved to win, but it should have been a so much easier afternoon. We were very sloppy at times and that gave Peterborough the ball and we made heavy weather of getting it back. I don't know but that might have been the best that Peterborough had played all season. Anyway it's a win. *I'm struggling to figure out what Cissoko brings to the table.

Done.

When I first started work in the Cable TV industry one of my work colleague's was Davy Lutton, former drummer from TRex. He was now a suit working for PacTel. At that time he lived in a very nice old converted farmhouse on the outskirts of Bolton near Belmont. He threw a party once and I thought great, rock & roll, drugs, mars bars and naked women. It wasn't.

Amy Hunt.

That's better 😁 Going watching W.A.S.P. next week. Hopefully I can still squeeze into the spandex.

I've got a Pixel 8a. I had a 6a before that. I'm boring when it comes to getting a new Mobile. I don't do any homework or research. I just get one. I like the edit facility you get with my 8a for your photos and videos.

What the fucking hell are you on about you mentalist? I was only describing, as I see it, the relationship we have the US. Nothing more and nothing less. We get thrown a bone every now and again which keeps us happy. FYI I'm more than happy with the "special relationship".

It's not on the scale of good old Neville. But it can definitely be described as an appeasement. We gain a lot by being a poodle to the US. Just recently we've been given a 25% doggy chew tariff for being a good boy.

Nah, I'll go with appeasement. We don't want to get on the wrong side of Uncle Sam.

I think it's called appeasement. But let's be honest here. We've been doing this since the 1940s.
