    Player Contracts, Summer 2015

    I can't believe that nobody has resurrected this thread - it's almost as if nobody cares, which surely can't be right... Anyway, I've left the out of contract players on here until there's an official announcement, even though we all know that most of them will be off. And it's a big Foxes...

    Random Encounter Thread

    A few days ago, while out bird watching near the Mexican border, I met the author Jonathan Franzen, said to be the greatest living American novelist. We talked about cormorants. Over to you...

    Player Contracts, Winter 2014/15

    It's back, back, back: the thread that nobody gives a shit about! So, new four-year contracts for Andy King and Richie De Laet. I've also been messing around with the young boys! If reports are to believed, some of our U21s might not be all that, but there are numerous players in the lower age...

    Kasper Schmeichel

    Kasper will be out of contract soon. However, I've just heard an interview with him on Five Live, congratulating him on promotion. It was approached from the angle of a Schmeichel back in the Premier League. The possibility that he wouldn't be at the club next season wasn't even raised, and he...

    Player Contracts, January 2014

    Here we go again, the most exciting thread of the season! The usual caveat applies: it's probably all wrong. Unknown Contract Length: Panayiotou, Larrauri, Cain, Sesay, Anton, McCourt, Elder, Sharpe, Casey, King (M), Ngoma, Hopper Out Of Contract in summer 2014: Waghorn, Dyer, Smith...

    Player Contracts, Summer 2013

    Same old bollocks. I think this is where we were the last time anyone posted, which was in December. I can't be arsed to look for any changes since then, and, as always, there are probably a load of mistakes in there for people to moan about. I don't remember how long Chris Wood's contract is...

    Another new thread as the old one was closed again. No mention so far of how long Bamba's contract is. Mee signed up until the end of the season. And of course, Fryatt gone. Unknown Contract Length: Parkes, Chamberlain, Verma, Schlupp, John, Bamba Out Of Contract January 2011...

    Not a conversation I expected to have...

    Sorry to start a new thread, it really doesn't warrant one but all the old ones were closed. Anyway, here's a conversation I did NOT expect to have today. I was driving north from near the Mexican border on I-19, effectively a motorway, and I came up to the big permanent border patrol...

    New Championship table

    Blimey! :icon_eek: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_div_1/default.stm (If they've changed it by the time anyone looks, the BBC are currently showing a 33-team Championship including the likes of Accrington and Carlise, with a whopping 12 teams to go down!)

    Next!

    IF Nige goes, then who is the next manager going to be? My personal preference would be Curbishly. Sensible (to the point of being extremely boring) but someone who would understand the financial restrictions all clubs are under nowadays.

    England vs USA

    Never started one of these before. Tough game, the US are a half decent side and will set out to frustrate England. I can see it being tight, 0-0, 1-0, 1-1. My side would be: James Johnson King Terry A. Cole Millner Lampard Gerrard Lennon J. Cole Rooney But Fabio's team will be...

    Remember Bing?

    This is something of a "random" one, to use the vernacular, but it's quite a nice story. Several years ago I met a new friend here in Tucson, a Londoner who'd just moved here. A while later I spent some time with his family when they came to visit, especially his dad, who's a lovely old bloke...

    Max-Alain Gradel

    I was under the impression his last name was pronounced Gruh-dell, being French and all that. Today's commentators called him Gray-dull, to rhyme with Cradle. Anyone know the definitive answer?

    Toughest job?

    A friend of mine has a new job, which has to be one of the most difficult I can think of. He's been a high flier for ages (pun intended); he was the youngest person ever to make the full board at British Airways, he used to buy all their planes (cool job!) and his current role is Commercial...

    Morrissey

    I'm going to see the legendary Mozza tomorrow night at Tucson Music Hall. I think a few of you on here have seen him recently so I was wondering what to expect - any Smiths tunes? New stuff? Was he good? I was a big Smiths/Morrissey fan as a teenager but I've never seen the great man live...
