Never mind all this Southampton/WBA nonsense.
The big game is the Play-off semi in Scotland between Raith Rovers and Partick Thistle.
It is so important because it will decide whether there will be dancing on the streets of Raith. |

It must surely be time for the annual discussion concerning Yorkshire Pudding with Christmas dinner.
Knowledgeable sophisticates understand that it should only be on Christmas plates if you are having beef - not a common choice on 25/12. Never with turkey , goose or any other meat.
Modesty forbids that I should mention any 'knowledgeable sophisticates' by name. |

Thread | Academy players who became successful in another sport.
at 10:56 2 Nov 2021
A couple of players who were in our academy who did well - or in one case exceptionally well - came to mind.
Graham Napier who became a very useful one-day game player for Essex CCC.
Alex Goode of Saracens and England. He was the 2019 European Player of the Year.
I wonder whether others occur to any of our contributors with an encyclopaedic knowledge.
I am not expecting this to be a lemgthy thread! |
