Wenger View: Trent Bridge
Not football, writes Adam Hildred, as if it matters, but still a crap view… I thought I had it somewhere but only just noticed it going through Picasa again… Now that the Radcliffe Road End has been built at Trent Bridge, some of the seats in the old (1990!) William Clarke stand are, urrm, what […]

Quite Remarkable Service Stations of the Nation: Leicester Forest East

impsTALK goes to….. the 2008 Women’s FA Cup Final
Arsenal 4, Leeds United 1 FA Women’s Cup Final City Ground, Nottingham May 5 2008 They’re a national laughing stock. The butt of a billion jokes. Shapeless, tactically naïve, technically deficient; unable to pass, trap, head or basically kick the ball, while playing at a pace that even an exceptionally lethargic glacier would find excruciating. […]
