Re: Hipkiss to Bath confirmed

Sad to see him go. As others have said, I always thought he'd been somewhat underrated. Strange comments he made though. He spoke about wanting to be somewhere ambitious and that Bath exude ambition. Excuse me, but aren't Leicester the most ambitious club going? Where else will he find ambition to m...

Re: Josh Lewsey cheats death on Everest

Good grief - how terrifying!!

What a mix of emotions; disappointed not to reach the summit and yet glad just to be alive.

The challenge of climbing Everest doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. It's just too scary and potentially fatal. Great effort Josh, respect!!

Re: Dublin

It's a wonderful city. I've been twice and loved it both times. I loved the fact that it's so compact - very easy to walk around. Definitely recommended for an easy, fun mini-break.

Re: Leaner, Not Necessarily Meaner Me

This may prove to be an error, but I've entered the Brighton Marathon. April 10 2011 is M-Day! According to their website, you shouldn't start serious training until September, but I've started doing a few runs and feel better for it. I'd better lose weight, but Mrs Gonzo did the London Marathon a f...

Re: If you could......

Worry not Old Hob! Us Muppets are wary of any kind of romantic involvement. Just look at the constant tension between Kermit and Miss Piggy - way too much like hard work! Fozzie and I have tried telling him, but hey, he's in love apparently, whaddya gonna do? Me? I'm just too busy trying to get fire...

Re: So what's your favourite tipple?

If ever you're down Sussex way, have a pint of Harvey's Best. Only 4%, so a good session bitter - a lovely drop. They do a nice Old Ale too, but it's only available in winter. Their 'Star of Eastbourne' is a fantastic pint. Guzzle it down quick should you ever see it at a beer festival! Can someone ...

Re: Three Cheers For Harry Carpenter

Hear hear! Good thread Kinny. I absolutely loved Harry's 'Get in there Frank!' moment during the Bruno v Tyson fight. There's something wonderful about a commentator losing all sense of impartiality in the excitement of the moment. Barry Davies did it well too in the hockey final against Germany. 'W...

Re: Chris Lewis as got 13 years.

The stupidity of the guy is unbelievable. It does seem some sports stars struggle to cope with being out of the limelight, once their playing days are over. Lewis will have plenty of time to reflect on the thousands of things he could have been doing, rather than this disgraceful act. Still, at leas...

Re: Funny chants

A couple of Brighton players have good chants. Dutch goalkeeper Michel Kuipers was a soldier before becoming a footballer. So his chant, to the tune of 'Yellow Submarine', is 'Michel Kuipers a former Dutch marine.....' Leftback Kerry Mayo married a woman called Kerry, leading to chants of 'two Kerry...

Re: I hate 'keep the faith'

Rizzo mentioned City using 'KTF'.

Must have been during the Micky Adams era, as it's a favourite mantra of his.

Adams recently returned to my beloved Brighton and Hove Albion, for a second spell in charge.

Keep the faith? Nah - they've just sacked him after only nine months!

Re: England team to play Italy

I'm thrilled for Goodey. The guy took so much stick from his own supporters here at WR. Having made a bold move to play in French rugby, he's got a fantastic reward.

Good on ya Goodey - here's hoping you play a blinder!
