    Anyone been to a FC Koln game?

    It's not too long ago that they were in the Bundesliga. I was meant to go to see a game in March, but I trapped a nerve in my back and was laid up for 8 weeks. Looking forwad to next season. Staying in Bochum and travel to Duisburg for the game.

    Anyone been to a FC Koln game?

    Yes, went a few years ago, an absolutely great experience. One of the best atmospheres I've witnessed. The stadium is a bit out of the City but there are plenty of bars to stop at on the way to the ground. Going to see Duisburg next year, with a German mate, they've just been promoted to their...

    More than 75% of Pensioners to get Winter Fuel Payment

    Sorry Andy, but you and brief just don't go together. It's like putting Farage and nice in the same sentence.

    More than 75% of Pensioners to get Winter Fuel Payment

    I don't need it and if I get it, I'll be donating it to my local food bank, who hopefully will put it to better use than I could.

    Tour of Britain - Women

    Do it regularly particularly if there's an Easterly wind, but tends to be the other way round. Down Saltburn Bank and up to Brotton then Kilton Lane to Lingdale.

    DavidsonMorris study, dated February 2025 is the most recent one I believe, although some studies previously put the figure higher.

    Then, if they are granted asylum, they enter the workforce and make a positive contribution to the economy of at least £2 billion pounds per year.

    Defence secretary says Britain has ‘lost control’ of it’s borders

    A bit like me a few years ago. The TV show "Desperate Housewives" wasn't the programme I thought it was.

    Winter fuel payment cuts to be reversed.

    Nearly all of them used to be Labour voters. or at least they say they used to be, I would say half of those, switched to Tory and a few to Reform and a few back to Labour. They are now all saying they will be voting Reform at every single election. Our local wards weren't up for grabs this...

    Winter fuel payment cuts to be reversed.

    Unfortunately, I can't see this decision winning many votes from Reform voting Pensioners. I hope I'm wrong, but I won't be holding my breath. For years they've been voting in Governments that pander to their every whim, and still think they were not generous enough. They want public services to...

    Have you ever supported a team other than Boro?

    South Bank as a very young kid. Used to go when the Boro were away. That stopped when I started going to Boro away games.

    Unforgotten:Bradford City… BBC2

    I was on duty at Grangetown Fire Station on that horrible day and was sat in the mess room having a cuppa, when the news and the pictures started to filter through. In a short period of time the whole watch was watching the tragedy unfold, it's the quietest mess room I have ever been in as we...
