    High Blood Pressure

    In March last year after a particularly stressful couple of years at work, I had been feeling lousy so took a week off work. On the Tuesday I saw the Dr and registered 176/96 BP. They suggested I buy a blood pressure monitor and check my readings for a week and get back to them. On the Saturday...

    UK's Eurovision Entry

    Croatia grows on you but surely its got to be 'Europapa' the Dutch entry. Suitably bonkers and will be all over the nightclubs on your holidays this summer

    Anwar El Ghazi & Cameron Archer

    I've been of this mindset for a while...Championship is an uncompromising league and it always takes players new to the league a while to adapt. We've got 3 months to get folks back fit and bed in Azaz. Reckon we will finish somewhere between 10th and 8th position. Looking forward to next season...

    pubs in Madrid showing Sky Sports

    Irish Rover on Avenida de Brasil which is just across the Paseo de Castellana from the Estadio Bernabeu usually has the Sky games on. Alternatively Triskel Tavern in the city centre on Corredera Alta de San Pablo shows the games also

    Mr Bates vs The Post Office

    I understand that PR is about fighting your corner and pushing your side of the story and that as a professional you can only work with the facts with which you are provided but I must say, the whole sorry business has slightly dampened my enthusiasm for diving in to Mark Davies' book which I...

    Luke Ayling?

    He would be a great short term replacement for Tommy Smith. We need some nous at times in games. We have a very young inexperienced squad. He's only a few months older than Smith. As for wages...its Leeds...seems there is always a deal to be done as far as their loaned players go recently :)(y)

    Club Shop - Complete Shambles!

    Just called in to the club shop to buy a Boro tea mug as my old one had gone the distance. Thought rather than get one from Amazon or the like I'd make the effort to head over. Needless to say it was a complete waste of time. One solitary Christmas themed mug on an empty stand. Surely these sell...

    Napoleon movie

    I watched it yesterday and left feeling I needed to see it a second time as I was undecided what it was. It certainly wasn't a biopic. It was like a mishmash of two ideas with neither given the full attention. Perhaps it should have been called Napoleon & Josephine and the screenplay tweaked...

    Ted Lasso

    Its a great series...It does seem a bit weird at first to UK audiences but I think its because it was originally aimed at US audiences where watching the game and supporting your 'local' franchise team from home and the bar is much more common than in the UK for a whole host of reasons...

    Ipswich Town - the real deal?

    The unpredictability of the Championship is one of its greatest assets. Ipswich are looking good so far and have had a great start but will it last? This time last year it was QPR. On 22nd October after 17 games they were sitting pretty in 2nd and were looking set for a great season... then...

    Boro borrow £7m against Akpom transfer

    Surely its about cash flow. Boro's accounts have previously highlighted that we do not carry a huge cash surplus in the bank account. With the Chuba sale Ajax have to manage their cash flow so agree a staggered payment plan for the transfer. As with anyone selling something, the seller wants...

    Dael fry

    At the match yesterday I was thinking that his distribution has shown a marked improvement this season. To me it has always seemed a bit of an achiles heel to his game and especially so with how Carrick wants to play out from the back. Sadly so far this season the perceived improvement in that...

    People sh*tting their pants in August again

    I guess its all about perspective. Everyone wants to hit the ground running but ...and I know its boring... the season really is a marathon and not a sprint. Last season QPR went top of the league after beating Wigan at home on October 22nd yet finished the season battling relegation. In the...

    Which is your choice Scottish League Football Team?

    Its always been Aberdeen for me as in the early 80s Aberdeen and Boro shared the same Subbuteo box code in the team catalogue you picked up from Romer Parrish and that was good enough for me. Plus Aberdeen were a top team in those days.
