Not football related but have a look on BBC News. The Rilkjmuseum in Amsterdam are restoring my favourite painting " The Night Watch" by Rembrandt! In full view of the public too. Might be popping over there to have a look. Legless, you will get some idea of the size of it from the photos mate! Incredible!

Back to football. Apparently the possible contenders to replace GL on MOTD are Micah Richards, Alex Scott and Mark Chapman. I'd go MC myself as he has great personality and as an amateur footballer only asks the questions that real fans would ask The best candidate imo. However, as a heterosexual middle aged white male he's probably got no chance.
What do we think?

If it's a woman I won't be watching it full stop.

Only thing i see coming outta Ámsterdam is 70s thuggery. Hate it all.

12 Nov 2024 22:12:09
Yes it’s a great shame Bowie. I found Amsterdam an extremely friendly, tolerant and civilised city. Terrible to see it taken over by thugs my friend. It’s a sign of the times I think…….

13 Nov 2024 17:34:23
Spot on stokey. There own? I think not.

13 Nov 2024 18:18:52
Yes, sounds like imported rent a mob mate…. ?.

11 Nov 2024 22:18:30
Best news since cooper was sacked linekar going from match if the day at end of season living the forest dream ???.

11 Nov 2024 23:28:37
Skegs I agree with you about that insufferably smug bar steward Lineker. However may I respectfully point out that help is available out there for Cooper paranoia my friend ……????.

With all what’s going on in the world at the present the main item on the evening news is that the so called Queen Camilla has a chest infection, a life time smoker.
CARLO.

09 Nov 2024 23:38:33
She is not my kind of royal.

10 Nov 2024 07:49:57
It makes a change from the constant reporting on the US election. It's as if the world stood still for 2 days. Her son says she has never smoked but the folk on social media know her better than him I suppose.

10 Nov 2024 08:52:49
Not 100% sure on the Royal etiquette but don't think she can be titled Queen.
Bigger scandal for me is Charlie boy, charging NHS trusts to park their ambulances on 'his land'.

If the new tory leader is working class for working in McDonalds, I have worked in Harrards for a sort time, does that make me upper middle class.

You ask him Carlo. Let us know how you get on and which hospital you are in mate! ?.

25 Oct 2024 15:35:09
How many kids does he want?
CARLO.

26 Oct 2024 14:58:28
He probably fathered a dozen before he realised what was causing it…….

28 Oct 2024 19:22:29

Council tax increase
Water sewage up
Power usage up
Bus fares up
Employer nat ins up
Petrol up
Inheritance tax up
Those are what we know, oh alcohol fags.

A German in charge of the England football team. Winston will be turning in his grave.

Do the same rules applied to us as Man C, me thinks not.
CARLO.

11 Oct 2024 17:39:27
Absolutely not, carlo. How dare you suggest such a thing?

12 Oct 2024 11:40:06
Could I get fined?
In the words of Shaggy! It wasn’t me.

I have helped a a friends daughter to compile a film about an England international forgotten captain.
With close connection to retired players, and friends a film and possibly a book are as we speak being made. Had some calls from the US to help with memories, photos etc to recall this giant of english football. Should be on your screens in the new year.

14 Oct 2024 07:16:31
Who is the forgotten captain, Redsocks?

14 Oct 2024 17:43:54
Dave Watson Pollyard.

08 Oct 2024 08:13:04
I watch Dr. Strangelove with a different mindset these days. ???.

08 Oct 2024 11:43:07
Great film though mate. Peter Sellars just showing off in the different roles, supreme talent. Was it George C. Scott doing the gung ho American General, early practice for playing Patton?

08 Oct 2024 18:03:00
Just thinking of recent events stokey.

08 Oct 2024 20:20:36
Know what u mean Redsocks mate. Worrying times…. You just have to hope Putin or the Ayatollahs don’t go mad and push it too far.

08 Oct 2024 20:43:50
Always men of pension age causing mayhem.
Seem to think they must leave their mark in history regardless of anyone else.
They have respect for humanity.

Just reading “Berlin 1945 the Downfall” by Antony Beevor. Adolf Hitler was 56 when he committed suicide in the bunker as the Russians closed in Carlo. He left the Germans to die and suffer terribly because he wouldn't contemplate surrender as he deemed his countrymen not worthy of him and deserved to die, such was his monstrous ego.

He contemplated a "Gotterdammerung" (the only thing he shared with me was a love of Wagner) a twilight of the Gods where everything was torn down.
I’m sure if CND had got their way in the 1980s and 1990s and we had disarmed our nuclear weapons, Putin wouldn’t have hesitated to do the same.

As it is, we have 4 nuclear subs, each with 10 missiles each with 40 warheads. So Putin has to do his maths despite his criminality ???.

09 Oct 2024 17:44:56
Putin is a narcissist. If he was told he had 24 hours to live, god help us all!.

09 Oct 2024 21:19:16
Yes, Stokey. Israel have got their excuse to try and start an all out Middle Eastern war. But it's someone else's fault. Never the West's mates fault. Comical.

09 Oct 2024 21:25:12
Aren't the West just brilliant, Stokey. Always impeccably behaved. Aren't we all just perfect over here in the West. It's always those in the East (except our mates of course) and those pesky Russians that are the instigators in all the world's problems.

10 Oct 2024 20:51:39
You have to consider how many of our subs equipped with nuclear weapons are actually seaworthy though Stokey. From what I hear through the grapevine mate, I personally have little faith in our nuclear deterrent capabilities.

11 Oct 2024 10:29:56
Fair point Legless but it’s the threat or possibility that deters. Russian armaments in the Ukraine have proved very unreliable. Would Putin gamble on us being the same?
Whilst on the subject of the Crimea everybody remembers the Charge of the Light Brigade as being a disaster, which it was of course. However, if the “Brave 600” 480 survived. After that the Russians commanders believed it was such a suicidal attack that they thought we all complete nutters and unpredictable. In future battles they deployed many regiments in the wrong place to try to cater for this, tying down thousands of their troops.
Putin might have the same doubts. He would have no doubts if we had no nuclear weapons.
Incidentally the Light Brigade was composed mainly of men from Nottingham particularly the Lancers.

12 Oct 2024 15:00:16
Polly, generally, in broad historical terms the British have never been “impeccably behaved” ( think Amritsar massacre and Irish famine for example) but we’ve never done it on the scale of the major European powers, Russia, the USA or China.

07 Oct 2024 16:39:34
I always knew ManC were innocent!
Not like us and Everton!

PL egg on face.
Flood gates open, appeals to the left of me, and to the right of me. Get the best lawyers.

Nuno has to sort out our home form it is dire
boring, disjointed slow passing low block defending no high press devoid of any energy and passion

We should not be surrendering 65 per cent possession at home to mid table sides like Fulham

Either sort it out or be prepared for Mr M to do it for you!

01 Oct 2024 08:12:39
I agree Munmad that we weren't at our best against Fulham ( perhaps too much change in personnel and formation? ) but I don’t worry too much about the possession stats as a lot of Fulham’s was ticky tacky in their own half mate.
You have to remember that Nuno is Jose Morinho s protege and mentor and his style reflects that. The more you compress a spring the more powerful it rebounds. Mind you, Morinho had John Terry at the back and Didier Drogba up top …….

01 Oct 2024 11:34:54
Like xG, possession is irrelevant.
