    Men's Health.

    Hi, seeing as it's getting confusing on the thread about the King, I thought maybe a thread about men's health might be more appropriate. I'll admit to being ostrich like when it comes to my own health but have plenty of advice for any other bloke showing any signs of illness. Thanks to those...

    Riverside Rocket(S)

    First off, thanks to everyone that has posted so many positive comments about the Rockets. Being so involved on them, it's difficult to know how much notice people take of us Rocketeers ( I do see the responses to my Rocket Ramblings and it does warm the cockles' ) So, I thought I'd take TJs...

    Belated congratulations Boreham Wood.

    Nearly 24 hours later and having time to reflect on last night, I want to pass on my congratulations and best wishes for the future to Boreham Wood.

    Peter Barry, retired.

    Just seen on Facebook, he retired today after 18 years with the club. Not sure how many roles he had with the club but whenever we saw him around, he always had a cheerful disposition and cheerful smile. Always a recognisable face about Dean Court, hope he has a long and happy retirement : )

    Burnley Parking !

    I called Burnley F.C. yesterday to book a Disabled Parking Space at Turf Moor. At the 3rd attempt I spoke to their person responsible for allocation. She started the conversation with "Don't shoot the messenger" then informed me it's 20 quid a space. We went last season, I think there was no...

    Rob Trent

    Just had a phone call from Rob, letting me know he won't be there tomorrow or able to make the Liverpool match. Unfortunately he misjudged a kerb, drove his chair over it, only to find out it wasn't a dropped kerb. The upshot was , the wheelchair ended up on top of him and he's got a broken leg...
