    AFL Round 9

    Kev, I quite like that old Pool top. What McGuire fails to mention is the alternate Collingwood guernseys of the past few years. OK, they were black and white, but not always the so-called 'traditional' regular stripes. If, as Mark Williams pointed out, clubs use different coloured...

    Nothin like a Four And Twenty

    Billy Clay? Struth, what the bugger is a billy clay? The archetypal Calder Valley 'growler', that was a Billy Clay's. Unfortunately, Billy Clay's is no longer with us (Loved their cream horns). Waites pies were their main rival, they have been taken over by some multi-tyke conglomorate...

    I love the mud

    Mud, who'd have it? Well some Sydneysiders it seems. Of course mud comes in many forms, some of which almost causes frost-bite, that's my favourite type, something Northern European, local, quite solid. trench-foot enducing!

    Nothin like a Four And Twenty

    The pie looks good, although a Billy Clay's was always my fave. What's with the hair, I don't think I've seen anything like that in at least 15 years.

    AFL Round 9

    Kev, I stumbled upon a site a few weeks - Toffs.com - back that specialises in replica football shirts from yesteryear. This is their Liverpool 1920's shirt:-

    League and the Jewish community

    I used to have a football book, it was probably printed in the late 60's. Inside there was a section on the Spurs side of the late 50's to mid 60's with a few crowd photo's. The crowd shot's which judging by the fashions date to theearly 60's show lot's of Asian faces.

    Eurovision Song Contest

    I can't believe that probably for the first time in about 25 years, I sat through most of it. Shame we didn't get relegated. How come you Antipodeans got to watch such high culture.....;)

    League and the Jewish community

    "I've heard stories that West Brom are gaining an extensive Asian supporter base some of who have even turned the tables on the Combat 18 types." There is a very large Asian population in the WestMidlands area, so it's quite possibly true. Leicester City have a sizeable Asian supporter base...

    God - What Have I Done To Deserve Being A Parramatta Supporter?

    You might miss out on the premiership for the next two or three seasons, you might even be wooden spooners for the next decade. Just imagine the situation if relegation and promotion was the system used in Australia. It's a case of realising what you have got, not what you haven't. I...

    League and the Jewish community

    "With regard to gav-bt's point regarding the perpetrators of anti Jewish abuse; I'd imagine that the reason British Muslisms don't tend to come out with the Auchwitz shit is because most of them are of Pakistani origin and the Israel thing isn't as prevalent an issue. Is this a fair comment to...
