Katie Prices brother used to play football for me on a Sunday back when she made her breakthrough in the Sunday Sport as Jordan.  Don't think he was too pleased when someone bought 15 odd copies and stuck them on the bench under each shirt!

Sorry for the late answers.  Grabbed what may be a last round of the season (as I am a fair weather golfer!) at the wonderful Ifield Golf Club.  Yet another Club that is soon to be closed to housing developers which makes around 10 gone in my area alone in the last few years.  All very sad. Random T...

If memory serves me correctly Trevor was suffering with a pelvic injury which in the end required an operation and think he missed a lot of the following season so probably wasn't fit, although I may be wrong. Keegan I think had a back problem and I remember in Ron's book he drove himself back to Ge...

Random Trivia 41 1.  Which controversial director directed "Rosemary's Baby"? 2.  Who is Angelina Jolie's actor father? 3.  In legend who was the wife of King Arthur? 4.  What is the longest bone in the human body? 5.  Granite is an example of which type of rock? 6.  Who wrote the autobiog...

East, that's a hell of an explanation to remind me that I made a massive typo!  😂  It is meant to read "directly", no idea how I put diagonally down.  Must confess though I oftern wondered why the numbers were arranged as they were.  Stumbled across this, it's quite interesting but I still...

Would a prime Ali have beaten Holmes? In fact a prime Holmes against Lewis would have been interesting.

Took me a while to find the questions but finally can complete the 1-10 series! Ten Quiz 1. In ten-pin bowling, the highest possible score is what? 2.  Which of the following is the traditional tenth anniversary gift, is it tin, steel or pottery? 3. Ten is the atomic number of which noble gas known ...

Apologies, doing my usual thing by mentioning an older film!  Got back into some Robert Redford classics since he passed away, and stumbled across on Netflix "The Natural" which despite myself having no interest in baseball at all, it intrigues in the way "Field of Dreams" did.  ...

TV Game and Quiz Shows Quiz 1.  Which show was introduced each week as "And now from Norwich, it's the quiz of the week"? Sale of the Century 2.  Who co-hosted "The Generation Game" alongside Larry Grayson? Isla St Clair 3.  Who hosted the ITV teatime quiz "Golden Balls"...

Not sure the outcomes would have been different but would certainly have been interesting to have seen Lewis against a prime Tyson and Nigel Benn at his best in the two fights against Steve Collins.  That goes for Eubank as well to be fair.

Thanks again to East for last week.  As I am back it's only appropriate to start again with a  TV Game and Quiz Shows Quiz 1.  Which show was introduced each week as "And now from Norwich, it's the quiz of the week"? 2.  Who co-hosted "The Generation Game" alongside Larry Grayson...

Didn't see too many of her films but caught her in the the excellent "Something’s Gotta Give" as I am a big Jack Nicholson fan.  He didn't do enough comedy imo, was excellent at it.  A fine actress.  RIP

I think we have had some bad luck with injuries in tournaments over the years as well to be fair.  The metatarsal curse with Beckham and Rooney, and Bryan Robson in 86 and 90 World Cups.  I think he might have caught Maradona instead of poor old Peter Reid chasing, and whilst David Platt deputised b...

Wasn't his assistant the defence-minded Don Howe? I seem to remember at the time feeling Howe's influence was greater than it should have been. Yes I researched a bit before posting and noticed it was Don Howe who was Assistant or at the very least a coach. As you say very defensive minded so somew...

17 thanks East. Anne Bancroft came to me 8 hours after I first read the question. Chose blue pill and annoyingly thought about Big but then decided on his first Oscar win that I think was Forrest Gump although it may have been Philadelphia. What a moron if I can't decide on that should have gone for...

I do enjoy the interviews with old players.  This is the latest with Bish.

I remember when he picked seven Liverpool players in one England team, including old man Callaghan who had actually played in the 1966 World Cup .     I can sort of understand that as Liverpool were the team of the late 70's and 80's.  Picking whatever English players they had had a certain logic t...

Yes I meant to say "like the England teams of the 70's", I know he came in late in the decade.  Good point about Hoddle and that's the perfect example really, the perfect style of Ron player but in Spain I think he went with Bryan Robson and Ray Wilkins in a 442.  

One for the older amongst us I suspect.  I was listening to a rather frank interview with Steven Gerrard about his time with England and he was rather honest about why England's so called Golden Generation failed.  "Egotistical Losers" was the expression he used to describe the clear cliqu...

Hi all, just to let you know I am back, many thanks to Easthammer for holding the fort. Shall I start again on Monday East, unless you want to carry on for a bit? My nephews MRI has been posponed till November  so good to go if needed.
