You can tell the football season returned this weekend. I turned on BBC Radio FiveLive to hear the 606 football phone in. A Bristol City fan was on, with a West Country accent so broad, it would make Justin Lee Collins sound like Prince William.
The caller was bemoaning his teams 3-0 defeat to Millwall, putting all of the blame onto Bristol City’s new goalkeeper, David James. When the presenter asked the Bristolian if he had seen any of the goals conceded by James, he replied “No. I didn’t go to the game”
Excellent.
No trackbacks yet.

This Derby County fan really doesn't like Leeds United. If you ever wanted to know what "bitter" sounds like, here you go... Considering the caller was on the verge of tears at the prospect of Derby giving Leeds a 'Guard of Honour', I can't imagine he would have taken this very well... ...

I am far from a fan of the radio station talkSPORT, but was pleased by a video I discovered on social media today. Guest Simon Jordan was in the studio and tore into presenter Jim White and his Sky Sports colleagues, over their reporting of a violent robbery involving a Premier League football player. It is about...

Thankfully, Roman does not appear to be troubled by tonight's fireworks, so will not be turning in on the old wireless.

This weekend, Danny Baker used part of his Saturday morning radio show to discuss the worst description that can be given to a football club facing difficult times.
Match of the Day recently used the phrase “Hapless Hull” to report on the Humerside Club's 3-0 defeat to West Ham, while Sky Sports have officially given the... - “Nothing can go wrong now”
Regular listeners to Danny Baker’s radio show on BBC Radio FiveLive, will know those five words should never be issued at a football match, regardless of how well one’s team is performing.
Before tonight, the last time I shouted out the infamous catchphrase, albeit tongue-in-cheek, was during the previous season. Bath City were playing an evening...
About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
