I don't think he used to really socialise at West Ham and was considered dour and surly. His assessment of the England squad sounds fair though.

I'd imagine most nonces are in fact ponces

nothing against hull but gotta root for the team named after a day of the week for some reason imo. If Boston created a Boston Tuesday rugby club or something I'd love them as much as the red sox by their first match.

Former Welsh League champions Abergavenny Thursdays face an uncertain future after being forced to withdraw from the Gwent County League due to a lack of players.

The club, founder members of the League of Wales in 1992, were due to host Pontypool Town in their opening Gwent County League Division Three fixture tonight.

But league secretary Glyn Jones confirmed that Thursdays have withdrawn and that Division Three will contain 14 teams this season

Founded in 1927, Thursdays were crowned Welsh League champions for the first time in 1959 and won successive titles in 1991 and 1992 before the formation of the new League of Wales (now known as the Welsh Premier League) for the 1992/93 season.

A repeat of the 1992 success in the first season of the League of Wales would have meant a place in the European Cup but it was not to be. Before a ball was kicked the Football Association of Wales requested that the club put up a bond as surety that their floodlights would be erected in time for the start of the League Cup competition.

Thursdays supplied the bond to the detriment of the club's resources and the uncertainty as to whether the club would be competing in the League of Wales led to the loss of many players and the team manager.

Cwmbran Town were the first League of Wales champions and Abergavenny were relegated before slipping through all three divisions of the Welsh League and into the Gwent County League.

In the course of five seasons they suffered four relegations and conceded 675 league goals.

Expected some harsh responses. Also thought there might be a couple more gutless ponces like me. I have to accept the label as fair enough. I'm too gutless and poncey to defend myself anyway.

I'll never bet on outcomes that I really want to happen. This is the most important match for more than 20 years. I'd have to gamble an amount of money that I couldn't afford for a return that would add extra shine if we win on Saturday. When the final whistle blows I won't give a **** that I've won money if we lose. I might however at some point in the future, after the dust has settled, rationalise that winning some beer money and romping to The Championship title next season was the best possible outcome all along anyway.

Ergh. That probably didn't make sense. Let me think again.

So the odds on skybet are after 90mins: Hull 5/4 Draw 21/10 SheffWed 12/5 and promoted Hull 8/13 SheffW 11/8.

Can you hedge to lock in a profit?

Mourinho is expected to replace sacked Louis van Gaal, with talks ongoing between his agent Jorge Mendes and United officials.

But it has emerged that Chelsea still own the 'Jose Mourinho' name as a trademark - meaning United may need to pay a six-figure sum for the rights.

He always comes across as a decent bloke.

ER was rocking socks, shorts and shin pads as well. Reports of him wearing a captain's armband were strenuously denied.
