Not the best at defending either, very much like Giles.

5 uglier men than David Moyes, surely not! My wife and daughter have Arteta at number 1 by some margin, despite him having hair like a Lego man.

Sting because he’s got a massive house, massive drive, massive gates and a lute!

I haven’t played for a long time but I found practicing with someone else focused me, I always wanted to win. Apart from finding the right weight and stance, I found rhythm a big factor. I found very slow players hard to play against, it was like you never got warmed up. Biggest thing is...

Loved Tempest. Played a lot of Phoenix too.

Got to agree about George Boateng, he'd have been first name on the team sheet if I was Boro manager, at least a solid 7 every game. I don't think Kevin Phillips got the credit he deserved, I think Boro missed a trick not going in for him when he left Sunderland.

I have a Villa season ticket holding mate, he certainly didn't underate them, he still moaned about us nicking them off Villa years after they finished playing.

Nobody makes any money in the Premier League other than the players and their agents.

I suffer from this intermittently. It usually comes back on if I play something on Spotify (Or similar app) and start the car before plugging the cable into the phone. Sometimes have to drive for a couple of minutes before it fires up!

Don’t have enough time to indulge all my sporting interests. Rarely watch any football other than Boro but listen to Premier League games whilst cooking. Love any Motorcycle Racing but only have time for one series, so it’s British Superbikes. I like Cricket but generally listen rather than...

I’ve been going since Nov 22, hated it at first but it helped my problem shoulder. Just got back into it after moving house, try to go 3 times per week doing 40 lengths each time. I enjoy it now, 30 minutes of head space is nice too.

Sad thing is Rochdale are barely in debt compared to a lot of lower league clubs, they just have no working capital. The stadium is valued at £4-6M. Their share structure is a nightmare though.

My son's best friend is a West Ham season ticket holder, he reckons Moyes is dithering on a new contract as he doesn't like having to deal with the Sporting and Technical Directors, he dealt with Gold and Sullivan previously. The West Ham fans are deluded, harking back to the West Ham Way and...

My Dad died last year, he started wearing jeans in his 60s, don’t know what prompted it. Never saw him wear shorts after 1976. My grandad was always smart shirt and trousers, never a tie in the house but always outside. Went to the pub every night and drank Guinness, thin as a rake.
