Blatter wants end to draws

BBC SPORT | Football | Blatter wants end to draws The man is clearly insane. Let's file this one under the whole raft of stupid ideas designed to appear to North American tastes - like bigger goals and dividing games into 4 quarter. Someone tell me - why does an idiot have to be in charge of world football.

The British Grand Prix

GrandPrix.com > News > The British Grand Prix
This makes grim reading from British race fans, and whilst it is only a comment piece a lot of what it says make sense. Ultimately, if no-one is prepared to fund the circuit and the grand prix then the race is going elsewhere. It's hard enough for British drivers to get funding to do F1 and losing the race would be the last thing anyone needs right now.

FIA plans F1 revolution

BBC SPORT | Motorsport | Formula One | FIA plans F1 revolution Ahhh...finally Max Mosely has released his blueprint for the sport. But some of it will of course be dropped.
Somehow I can't see the engine manufacturers backing a reduction of capacity down to 2.4 litre and I would think that some of the technical restrictions will be dropped, but I guess he's playing the long game here and will see what he can get away with during the negotiating process.
Mind you if he got his way it would be great to see some of the younger paying drivers suffering without driver aid and on rock hard tyres...heheheh

Teletubbies on a diet

Bloomberg.com: U.K.
In case we were ever in any doubt, the world has gone a bit more mad with the news that those gods of lard-arses everywhere the Teletubbies can't promote anything fattening. WHAT....like sitting on your bums watching TV maybe!!!!

Old music was great.....

Discography - Wonderwall
Why is it that they don't make tunes quite like Wonderwall anymore. I'm starting to feel like an old git saying it - but most new stuff just doesn't cut it. The bad news is of course is that it's 9 years old this year. Now I feel old......
