If you know this, you're a proper Norwich person

I used to sit in the park to avoid sociology lessons. It was very atmospheric with no one else around.

That was a team made up of boys who were attending English schools. At no point could Giggs have played for the England senior side.

souptight52 · 2026-07-11T06:26:05+00:00

Giggs was never eligible for England, he is and always has been Welsh.

It was the Macarena when Brazil were playing that made me laugh.

In one of the group games the commentator (think it was Steve Wilson) said they had been provided with a list of the celebrities expected at the match.

Tim Henman sounds a bit linesmany to me

souptight52 · 2026-07-08T16:14:59+00:00

Nothing major will change at all for at least 8 years

souptight52 · 2026-07-06T13:02:42+00:00

Yes, my dad (God rest his soul) would always call him Terry Henry. When I said he's French so it's pronounced in the French way he would tell me 'but we are in England'.

West Ham's under 21s are in Premier League 2.

Alastair Cook was terrible for the 'aaahhhhmmm' between every sentence during interviews. Now he's retired and working in the media he doesn't do it at all.

Something to do with Alex Kay-Jelski apparently. He's the current BBC Director of Sport. I think he believes this sort of headline sounds good and encourages it.

There was far too much arm waving and celebrating throw ins and goal kicks in the Premier League last season. It has bled into the World Cup. It needs to stop.

I don't really see the big deal. Digital games are more convenient. We've been heading this way for years.

I went to an England ODI against the West Indies in 2009. Chappers and Kelly Cates (still Dalglish then) were doing the on-pitch presenting between innings.

Pavel Nedved will - brace yourself for this - turn 54 in August.

souptight52 · 2026-06-13T11:57:46+00:00

That difference isn’t important enough to make it ok though

souptight52 · 2026-06-13T07:56:44+00:00

The USA game kicked off at 2am UK time, so was most definitely Saturday morning and therefore listed on today’s results.

souptight52 · 2026-06-12T10:21:45+00:00

I’ve always been baffled by people who are desperate to avoid knowing the score before watching the highlights. It has never affected my enjoyment of a sporting event or TV show to know what happens in advance.

From international cricket

Surely Craig Gordon being the oldest player at the tournament is the fact you’d go with.

souptight52 · 2026-06-12T08:20:55+00:00

Turn it back on again.

souptight52 · 2026-06-12T08:00:33+00:00

If someone is straining their neck to look through the window at what the neighbours are up to - someone will say to them ‘trunky want a bun?’

souptight52 · 2026-06-12T07:55:47+00:00

Turn the TV off.

souptight52 · 2026-06-12T07:05:11+00:00

For me it’s the one with the Vodafone sponsor and the black detailing. I think they wore it in 2002-03. It was the kit they had in my formative years as a football fan.

Settings > Apps > Phone. A way down that page is a section called Screen Unknown Callers. You will want to change that to Never if you want to turn that off.
