Can you recommend a couple for a newbie please mate. Never seen a single one. 

Princess Mononoke

Howl's Moving Castle

When Marnie was There

Kiki's Delivery Service

These are my particular favouries. The first 2 are dark but beautiful. The other 2 are less dark but just as beautiful.

How are Bolton getting on?

I've seen there are a lot of animated Japanese (I think) films on Netflix recently. Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, etc. No idea why, but I've always felt like they'll be really depressing and so I've avoided them. Am I being ignorant?

I dion't find them at all depressing. They can be dark; very dark in the case of something like Princess Mononoke; but I find them incredibly uplifting. Give one or two a go. You might find you want to watch them all. I did.

I have a soft spot for Paul Blades, so...

Cox

                   Shilton

    Sage  Wright Blades Forsyth

Micklewhite  Gregory G.Williams Mcminn   

               Saunders Goddard

Smith   

                      Poom

         Stimac  McGrath West 

      Eranio  Carsley  Asanovic  C.Powell

        Sturridge  Wanchope  Baiano

Proper heroes actually to most of the country at the time. Brave men who refused to be bullied or intimidated into striking when there hadn't been an official national ballot. But as Steadybreeze wrote earlier this subject doesn't belong on a football forum. 

Piss off then

Priceless.

Thanks for everything, Motty.

They can’t hear what the players are saying to the ref though can they? And watching a player cheat on the pitch doesn’t really compare with someone sitting near by shouting out some of the stronger swear words we hear. I don’t have a problem with my grandson seeing Grealish go down like he’s been shot but, I would feel a little uneasy if the person sitting next to him started shouting out one of the strongest examples of industrial language. 

It is completely the opposite for me. Dishonesty is worse than swearing.

If kids can watch the overgrown brats on the pitch with their gobbling off at the officials and their cheating, a bit of swearing should be the least of your problems.

He's a t*****

I just watched an old episode of 'Star Soccer' from 1977 when we got tonked 3-0 by Forest and just to rub it in, it was followed by a match between Chelsea and Coventry with Barry Powell, Mick Coop and Steve Wicks reminding us all about how much further we had to fall.

Grim.

The point of the family area is that you respect the families who sit there, in my opinion. The one at fault is the person shouting and should not be surprised to be asked to calm the language down. 
In the stadium as a whole, I explained to my kids when they were little about the places and people who do not want to hear it, as you just know they use that language with their mates. 

Having a family area in a football ground is like having a no pissing area in a swimming pool.

Swearing is fine.

It's not a gateway to anti-social behaviour and the kids aren't going to learn anything bad from being in the presence of swearing.

Written by the same team as Sexy Beast, so was always going to be somewhat 'fruity'! ?

 

There's a sequel  / Prequel / TV series (not sure which) coming soon. They were filming round the corner from work the other day, complete with London double decker bus and black cab.

Just ove rhalf way through Operation Mincemeat and I'm very happy I waited and didn't pay to see it.

I'll see it through tonight but it's a bit of a yawn as of now.

Having said that, when I think about it, it must be a tough book to make exciting. Especially when you have to strip 80% of it out and you lose a lot of the really interesting detail.

The book had me in awe whereas the film had me in bed.

Try The Man who Never Was - Clifton Webb with a whole host of familiar actors of British film of the 50s and 60s.

That’s ended our chance of top 2 tbf

also it’s opened the door for Wycombe into the play offs, we’ve dropped down in the table and suddenly look less secure. Harder away games to come too

Woe, woe, and thrice woe.

Cheer up.
