Does anyone remember that advert for the drink Oasis from about 1997 when Terry Venables was managing the Australian football team?

Basically, he’s trying to teach them how to play football, he ends up getting exasperated and says something like, β€œyou’re supposed to kick the ball under the bar, not over it!”

I’ve been looking for it for ages & there’s no video of it anywhere online, I don’t know if I’ve imagined it or what, but if it is real, and someone has a link to it can you post it please?

#The First Doctor Adventures

TITLE WRITERS INDIVIDUAL STORIES (If Applicable)
The First Doctor 2022 Title TBA ?? ??

Whilst we don't know the details, we know Lauren Cornelius has been recording more First Doctor Adventures. Assumably the AAISAT crew have been as well, and potentially Carole Ann Ford. And one assumes Peter Purves. Sadly, I doubt William Russell has, Jean Marsh even less so. Maureen O'Brien has possibly done recording, but it's difficult to say as she's someone who can't really travel far, and obviously pandemics makes things worse.

#The Second Doctor Adventures

TITLE WRITERS INDIVIDUAL STORIES (If Applicable)
1. Beyond the War Games Nicholas Briggs; Mark Wright; ?? ??
14. The Companion Chronicles: The Second Doctor Vol. 3 George Mann; ?? ??

After being delayed many times, with still no confirmed release date, the fact that remote recording has occurred seems that whatever issues that plagued the release have potentially been solved, and we may get news soon. Otherwise we do know there's a George Mann penned Dalek story, read by Frazer Hines, that at this point logically couldn't be anything but a Companion Chronicle.

By defeating Germany, Gareth Southgate has become England's joint most successful knockout game manager ever with 3 victories.

It's a little depressing how easy it is to write down the sum total of England's knockout game success EVER:

Sir Alf Ramsay won 3: Argentina, Portugal, West Germany (all 1966 WC)

Sir Bobby Robson won 3: Paraguay (1986 WC), Belgium, Cameroon (1990 WC)

Terry Venables won 1: Spain (1996 Euro)

Sven-Goran Eriksen won 2: Denmark (2002 WC), Ecuador (2006 WC)

And Gareth now has 3: Colombia, Sweden (2018 WC), and Germany (2020 Euro).

Every other England manager that has been as successful as he has was knighted. He is the first England manager ever to have won a knockout game at both the Euros and the World Cup.

The Inner City vs The Coast (Crystal Palace FC vs. Brighton and Hove Albion) [OC]

This Monday, one of the most overlooked fixtures in English Football will take place. It’s no Steel City Derby, it’s no North London Derby, it’s no Manchester Derby, but it sure is fairly significant for both sets of fans and for both football clubs’ history.

A word that usually gets thrown around when people talk about this match is – β€œderby”. That’s the wrong word. It’s a misconception. A derby would have to be contested usually between two teams in close proximity to each other. For example, Real Madrid vs. Atletico Madrid is the β€œMadrid Derby”. Real Madrid vs. Barcelona is the β€œEl Clasico” and is a rivalry rather than a derby. This has a derby atmosphere, yes. But it’s a rivalry. Two clubs that just hate each other.

Anyway, onto the crunch. How did two teams of almost completely different cities, nearly 40 miles away from each other become bitter rivals? Only one place to start and that’s from the beginning.

Part I

Something interesting about Crystal Palace and Brighton and Hove Albion is that no matter what, both clubs always seem to be together. When the Third Division was founded in 1920, both clubs were in it together. There was no animosity back then, even when they clashed in back-to-back fixtures on Christmas Day and Boxing Day 1951. After that, these teams would not go toe to toe for the next 11 years.

On the opening day of the 1974/1975 season, they faced each other. Both teams had just been relegated from the Second Division and neither side wanted to waste any time in getting back up. Trouble began with extra police being deployed to control the crowds. The excuse for the heavy drinking and trouble was the hot weather although that was taken with a grain of salt of course. The game ended 1-0 to Brighton.

As small as this may seem, this was the beginning of the rivalry. The seeds were planted from here.

[Just as a side note, Crystal Palace finished that season in 5th place (4 points off promotion) while Brighton just about escaped the jaws of relegation in 19th place (4 points off the dropzone).](https://www.footballsite.co.uk/Statistics/Seasons/1974-75/Div31974-75.htm)

Even though both clubs had contrasting finishes in the table, the fact that they weren’t promoted was a disappointment. The next season, both clubs’ ambition

Leeds United History 101: 2003/04 - All Good Things…

There are some on here who won’t remember these days, there will be others who see it as one of the many ups and downs of the club they’ve supported for years. For me and people of my age, it was the year we realised football can be a harsh mistress.

This was, for the uninitiated, the season Leeds United were relegated from the Premier League. A time at which everything that could possibly have gone against us did; where the club imploded, results went against us, ex-players showed their true colours and the club went through it’s most sudden shift arguably in our history.

To put it into perspective just how much things changed between the first relegation and promotion again, this was the same season David Beckham was sold to Real Madrid, Wayne Rooney still played for Everton, Ronaldo made his debut for Man Utd, Roman Abramovic bought Chelsea, Arsenal completed their invincible season and the last time Newcastle competed in the Champions League. Premier League football was about to change significantly in the new age of foreign investment, sides being regularly competitive in Europe and TV money coming in from abroad ballooning.

At the start of the season, without any context you’d have been forgiven for thinking that the situation wasn’t too bad. We started against a strong Newcastle team in a 2-2 draw where we were unlucky not to win - thanks to 2 very avoidable goals. The side that day included Mark Viduka, Lucas Radabe, Alan Smith, Gary Kelly and 2006 England WC GK Paul Robinson - names familiar across the continent at the time from their deep forays into the UEFA Cup and the Champions League in recent seasons. The side even included David Batty, a league winner with Leeds United in 1992.

Inside the club however things couldn’t have been worse. Just a season earlier Leeds had opened the season with an imperious performance against Manchester City. A 3-0 win had included the likes of Robbie Keane coming off the bench and rounding off the scoring with an audacious chip just to highlight the level of quality available to us at the time.

What was happening at Leeds was a collapse which has had many imitators from the likes of Portsmouth and Malaga but never exceeded given the sheer number of advantages we had at the turn of the millennium.

Having won the league in 1992, Leeds had come back from obscurity by winning the trophy in only their second season back in the top flight. What followed over the next half decade was a mixture of growth and adapt

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

List of all possible US Senators

Taken from the localisation file "TNO_USA_senator_names_l_english.yml"

Interesting things I observed:

  1. Most states have a total of 12 possible senators, 2 for each party (RD-R, RD-D, NPP-L, NPP-C, NPP-FR, NPP-Y). But since some possible senators can become presidents (e.g. Gus Hall) or join a president’s cabinet (e.g. Russell B. Long), there are 5 states who have 14 possible senators (Arizona, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Mississippi) and 18 states with 13 possible senators (Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Washington).

  2. This may or may not be a bug, but following senators appear multiples times:

  • Lement Harris – possible NPP (L) senator for both Georgia and South Dakota
  • Claude Lightfoot – possible NPP (L) senator for both Arkansas and Kentucky
  • Delmer Berg – possible NPP (L) senator for both Arizona and California
  • Edwin Westphal – possible NPP (Y) senator for both Alabama and Kansas
  • Eustace Mullins – possible NPP (Y) senator for both New York and Virginia
  • James Abourezk – possible senator for South Dakota for both the Republican and Democratic parties
  • Cecil Andrus – possible senator for Idaho for both the Republican and NPP (C) parties

Clearly, the National Progressive Party has mastered the art of cloning.

  1. The longest name is β€œBenjamin Franklin Dillingham II,” a possible NPP (FR) senator from Hawaii; the most common first name is β€œJohn” (41 instances), followed by James (22 instances) and β€œCharles” (14).

  2. There are 22 β€œJr.”s, 3 β€œSr.”s, 3 β€œII”s, 2 β€œIII”s, and 1 β€œIV.”

  3. 3 senators have nicknames: BolesΕ‚aw β€˜Bill’ Gebert (Oregon, NPP-L), O. β€˜Abe’ Murdock Jr. (Utah, RD-R), and W. A. β€˜Tough Tony’ Boyle (Montana, NPP-C).

EDIT: 6) Just noticed the awesome father-son combo of Prescott β€œThe Business Plot” Bush as RD-R from Connecticut and George H. W. β€œTreason And War Crimes” Bush as RD-D from Texas.

Anyway, on to the list of names:

Party State Name
Republican Alabama Richmond Flowers Sr.
Republican Alabama John H. Buchanan Jr.
Democrat Alabama Carl Atwood Elliott
Democrat Alabama Howell Heflin
National Progressive Party (Left) Alabama Harry Haywood
