If UEFA had stuck to their original punishment then perhaps the Zurich player may have thought twice before diving. As the clocks were ticking you could Bank on the Zurich player doing a Swiss Roll to gain the Penalty. Hard Cheese on Real though.

I was saying elsewhere Mick that, only last night, we got 9 out of the current "Top 10" threads in The Lounge. Someone spoilt it by writing something totally inconsequential about some irrelevant Subject otherwise we would have been the first to have had a clean sweep since The Beatles back in '66...

Surely The Pub was "The Golden Eagle2 not "The Golden Lion"??

I can't remember what the "Non-Death" thread was but I do remember thinking that it was oddly out-of-place at the top of The Lounge..

Moos Wrote: 8 threads on recently dead slightly-famous-to-actually-famous dead people on the first page of the Lounge? Sadly, since the Reaper comes for us all, it seems that there is no end in sight, as the fodder for those that like to start these thread on a daily basis will keep on coming. Thank goodness for the 'mark as read' option. It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform you that nine of the Top 10 threads last night ( at one point) consisted of Tributes/Condolences/Acknowledgements etc) and that did not include "Troubleshooter" Ray Barrett, either. Someone slipped in a thread about something-or-other in between the collective nocturnal mourning, as it were.

I'm getting in a right ole' "two and eight"..that was Jive Talking by The Bee Gees...

I don't really think there is any need for that kind of friviolity Young Lady. Losing Lenny McLeish and being aware of Lenny McLean's death on the same day is not to be mocked....:(

Thanks for the interesting reply Ladymuck.

No, don't get me wrong, I DO believe Keith!! p.s. Thats I believe that if I start singing the Millwall Anthem in the West Ham end of the ground tonight then I'll spend the rest of the evening at The Brooke Hospital at THe Elephant and Castle...:)...I mean:(

What its not sad news that I've just heard of Lenny McLean's death, Mick? You don't want his Family to know that that is your attitude or you might get a visit from Lenny's many bruvvers, if you get my meaning, My Son.::o

When did Heile Selassie change his name to God? Now I rated Mr. Selassie heile, but "God"?? thats strongin' it a bit, ain't it? Must be Jah talking...that reminds me, I haven't played my "Best Of The Bee Gees" lately, which is my favourite Bee Gees Album ( sorry, AP)...

I'm off to Millwall for the return fixture with West Ham tonight, Keith. I'll spread the word while I'mthere. p.s. You haven't got a spare Sandwich-Board have you, so that I can really get our massage across?

Only the day b4 yesterday I bet on 37 Greyhound Races, 15 Horse Races and The Live Sky Football ( MK Dons) and nearly every individual game in The USA Open Final ( Fed. Express/Del Potro= around 60 games) and after those 113 seperate betting heats, on the day, over 14 hours, I won ?3....and you expect me to stop now??

I'm not starting a seperate thread but its quite spooky what happened only yesterday. Watched the fantastic opening sequence ( You Tube) to the original "The Italian Job" with its fabulous drive thru' The St. Bernard Pass in The Italian Alps by Rossano Brassi, while Matt Monro sang the gorgeous "On Days Like These" in the background. Thinking about the talent connected with that 1966 classic British film and enquired who wrote the script. It was Troy Kennedy Martin. Checked to see if he was still alive and he was. 10 hours later I read on the Internet that he had just died at the age of 79.:(
