Definitely not, just as my neighbour at #14 would tell you.

A cautionary tale: (this may be a very rare occurrence, but this is the gist of it) I'd been using reading and driving specs for a few years. Then when I then found myself in a new environment where specs were a bit of a nuisance I gave contact lenses a go instead. I'm not great with any activities ...

Guardiola's rueful and glum expression when the fifth went in seemed to say it all: this really has become an embarrassment of riches. Where's the fun in that?

Would be interested to know what percentage of Chris Wood's goals were scored from within the 6 yard box. And he's lethal from 2 yards (usually).

Ash's getting quite familiar with David Luiz's little sister ....

I guess so, Andy, if you're sat high enough in the Longside Upper. I wonder if there's anything to prevent it from actually happening, other than potential cost?

Sarum

And lots of other commentators like to refer to the view, too, and with similar affection.

Imagine what an upper tier on the dinky BL stand would do to that view! No, not a great idea....

My sight line was from very low down and just to the right of the gk's right hand post. As it left Pato's boot it seemed to be whistling straight for my head. And then it changed course very fractionally. Time stood still. Then absolute bedlam. Wow, what a strike! What a goal! Certainly the best sec...

Expensive in the city, a bit less so on the Plain.

They could do with some decent roofers round here though

Heaton 6 (Cherries really didn't give him anything noteworthy to do.) Lowton 7 Tarkowski 8 Mee 9. Superb in the air defensively; would've been 10 but for one missed header from which they nearly scored. Taylor 8 Handled the lively but under-used David Brooks pretty well. Hendrick 7 Westwood 10 A hug...

Rovers back to back wins at Turf Moor In the dark days when Rovers still had loadsamoney I heard one of their fans sneer: "we ALWAYS win at Turf Moor". Mind you, this was said on an April 1, so posssibly just someone fooling themselves. In fact, since 1925-26 the only time they have won back to bac...

First thing, sack the goalkeeper for gross misconduct, just as you would expect in many a workplace for public insubordination. Secondly, though, imagine if that keeper had stayed on the pitch and had won the match for Chelsea..... now that would've been an interesting outcome for the Chelsea hierar...

Tortilla in Spain is often cooked in small cafes and local bars from opening time in the morning, as it's quite a popular breakfast snack particularly with manual workers. Often enjoyed with a chunk of fresh bread and a small glass of cold beer, but not necessarily with either. Generally the tortill...

Villa Park, Feb 2010. Pre match down on the concourse was one of the the strangest sights ever: dozens of Burnley fans glued to the TV screens and whooping with delight as Rovers scored three goals in their early kick off. Hint: Bolton Wanderers.

Tom's experience is probably that 90 times out of a hundred a player in that position would take the ball down and then bear down on the goal. Had Schurle done that then Tom's angles and position would've been about right, especially if the player's first touch gave Tom the opportunity to sprint out...

Anyone remember a little old-fashioned word called "those"?

It's one of them words we tend not to use quite as much now....

I once saw a t-shirt with the brand name "Rovers" on it. I'm not going to be tempted myself as I don't have a dog by that name.

"Cozy Powell was highly rated." He was: good friends with John Bonham, and admired by Carl Palmer (who he replaced for a while in ELP) and a close colleague of Brian May (Queen) and Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath)to name a few. All but Bonham were in attendance at the unveiling of a blue plaque in Cozy's...

4 very competitive matches to open the season: undefeated. 3 of those away from home, where we've conceded a single goal (and that a penalty). Huge effort today from all the players who've played in Turkey just a couple of days ago. Just a bit disappointing not to have scored the goals that our perf...

Maybe if Everton had signed both Michael Keane AND Ben Mee then Keane would have fared better there. Or put another way the quality of Ben Mee’s defending remained at the same high level after Keane left, but the same can’t be said of Keane’s. Whilst that might be due to all sorts of factors at Ever...

This evening's local news is reporting that over 20 people have received hospital treatment for the possible effects of a nerve agent. Hopefully they, the targeted man and his daughter, and the police officer will all recover. Had this attempted murder occurred on the previous Sunday in the same loc...

By coincidence, early last week my wife and I had an evening meal in Zizzi's restaurant in Salisbury. There were only a couple of other tables with diners and I noticed a late middle aged man there, but nothing else of any note. Last night I saw a photo of the Russian on the TV and straightaway had ...

60s era airline-style shoulder bags with club's name.

Mine had "Burnley, 22 years in first division" at a time when there were 22 teams in the first division. And guess what: by the end of that season Burnley were no longer one of them and the bag fell to bits.

Also, on the point of herons, don't be tempted to place a fake one near the pond for decoration or to deter other herons; it'll have the opposite effect of attracting other herons to what appears to be a safe landing site - you don't want that. As others have suggested, do get a filter going soon as...

take a look back through Rovers stats for the last time they got 2 consecutive wins at Turf Moor; it was a very, very long time ago.

Same problem, Finally got it to work. First thing I hear is dear Phil bird immediately repeating his last words, just as he does throughout every flipping commentary. and here he goes again: "good spot...good spot". Can't someone have a word with him, have a word with him.

Ginnel (alleyway) is also used sometimes in these parts (the South) too. The Ginnel in Devizes town centre being one example. Going on: on my way to Turf Moor some years ago I popped into a bakers to buy a sandwich. "Are you going on?" the young assistant asked me. "Going on? I'm not going on about ...

Hampstead, the fairly common perception that Slade were a skinhead band 'first' is a bit of a myth: the band had been together since circa 66-67 playing 'rock music' and had a long-haired ' look' to go with it. By 1969 and having been spotted by ex Animal and ex Jimi Hendrix manager Chas Chandler th...

Royal Blood: one unholy row going down a proverbial storm. And was that a Burnley crest on the checkered claret and blue flag in the crowd?

Definitely, not been up for many years now. First year I went (90s somewhen) Kurt Nogan and Gerry Harrison were out on the prowl, pub to pub.

"If you're proud to be a Claret" is less often sung/chanted these days, surprisingly, because it would always remain current. As would "1-0 to the Burnalee" but that one's probably fallen out of favour due to its high 'naff rating'.

Goalposts: not sure if it was the same gig you went to but there's an old story that for one gig in Manchester at 9pm some the band were still at their hotel. In London!

Happy: if you were carrying your own clubs too for part of that time then that would have further promoted weight loss. I'm pretty active but between Christmas and April I found that my regular walks were not trimming my weight back at all. At the beginning of May I decided to eat only muesli types ...
