We discovered that while it may be true that no one likes Rovers, they do actually care.

I think this might have been up here before, but it's well worth taking 5 minutes to read it and watch the video, whether you've seen it before or not.

Where is Bluebeard anyway? Have noticed a severe shortage of posts taking more than a minute to read. (Excluding dcfcsteve on a hobbyhorse, of course)

I was thinking that the other day (the Bluebeard part). A quick look at his profile confirms he hasn't posted since April 23rd. Has he discovered something more important that Foot.ie? Maybe he's out talking to real people (eeww).

Hope he's ok anyway.

I believe he was heading off to the us of a. Not sure they have internet there yet.

I almost crashed my car earlier coz I saw a cork city fan in Monaghan. Got chatting to him briefly.

No doubt he'll be on himself to verify, I'm sure he keeps an eye on here still, but I can put your mind at rest anway.
He's grand, fear of him! Living the life in the States with his significant other, though still finding time to contribute greatly to our match programme with his "Every Game An Away Game" column every other issue. He's pencilled in for an article for the next Derry game as it happens, and there's an early season one up online, with more to be posted up over the next days.

Let us leave our old friend in one of those moments of unmixed happiness, of which, if we seek them, there are ever some, to cheer our transitory existence here. There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast. Some men, like bats or owls, have better eyes for the darkness than for the light. We, who have no such optical powers, are better pleased to take our last parting look at the visionary companions of many solitary hours, when the brief sunshine of the world is blazing full upon them."

Very good, Osarusan. I think these choice excerpts will be a pleasant recurring feature to raise the tone.

The above is, of course, culled from "Jordan - My Life", n'est pas????

"Have I told you my theory of life, by the way? Life is like invading Russia. A blitz start, massed shakos, plumes dancing like a flustered henhouse; a period of svelte progress recorded in ebullient dispatches as the enemy falls back; then the beginning of a long, morale-sapping trudge with rations getting shorter and the first snowflakes upon your face. The enemy burns Moscow and you yield to General January, whose fingernails are very icicles. Bitter retreat. Harrying Cossacks. Eventually you fall beneath a boy-gunner’s grapeshot while crossing some Polish river not even marked on your general’s map. "

Brilliant observation like that can only be from John Barnes, The Autobiography.

Is this correct? (no idea where the quote comes from)

It's from Julian Barnes' Talking It Over. I've never read it (although I have just finished his excellent Arthur and George), but it was quoted in The Guardian today and a search for the full quote turned up the above so I can only assume it's the correct one. It's a brilliant quote though, especially the last line.

Aye, and you won't have it for another few years until you've paid off the mortgage you took out to pay for it!

Their burgers have gone downhill recently in the last few years, I could swear they were bigger in 2005.
