Sudden death

The European cup final was close again.  How happy we were to see Ronaldo’s cocky penalty get saved, only for John Terry to cock up his chance to seal the victory and save Ronaldo from being the player to lose the game. I know that Ronaldo is an outstanding player, but just because he has […]

In a mere 8 days the Hammers have managed to lose three games 4-0 and turn a positive goal difference of 8 into a negative 4. But let’s try and look on the bright side…

A small victory, but something to build on. We went along to quiz night at the Broadbridge Heath village hall and came equal first.
