Good mid morning and welcome to the Europa. My first observation is that Rubin Kazan would have been a great name for a character in Angel Heart. And my second is that this will be the battle of the nearly men. Louis Cyphre: Are you an atheist? Harry Angel: Yeah, I’m from Brooklyn. Sure I was put back in my box by the vast majority of you that voted in a recent poll. Things have changed and clearly most people don’t give as stuff about this competition. So tonight will be interesting as I believe that Rubin Kazan do care and…

Good afternoon. Dances With Scones has announced that he plans not to have a hair cut until he scores a goal in a competitive game. His target is to raise £75k for Cancer Research from this stunt. A few immediate thoughts from me. The first is that we’ll turn a few heads fielding the black Benn Gun … to Huddlestone who is shouting “Many’s the long night I’ve dreamed of cheese-toasted, mostly” who plays a sublime ball through to Adbayor … The sketch is to raise money for Cancer Research. It is difficult to argue against a charity that does such…
Good afternoon. First item of business is a whopping congrats to Citizen Astromesmo. Not only is he a delightful chap in his own right, but he is now the quite rightly the wonderfully proud father of a swanky new ‘junior client number’ and we ought all raise a cyber glass to not only him but those he calls his own :winke: My newest most favouritist figure in football, Barry Hearn has formally thrown his Chairman’s titfer into the old OPLC ring. I sincerely hopes he gets the outcome he seeks. Not just granted the OS itself which would be sweet for…
Good morning. First up, good to see Gazza on the road to Wellville. He’s been there before, but I understand he’s making great progress and the more daft characters football has, the better. The game itself was tough viewing at times as our formation creaked uneasily as many new players and an unedifying injury list took it’s toll. Add to this the Bar Codes aren’t where they are in the table by luck. They might not quite be ‘The Entertainers’ again, but Pardew has them organised and their desire was impressive enough. 6 Highlight of the game was his attempt…
Good evening. I am tempted to recall the Hannibal Lecter line, ‘but you may lack perspective’ in relation to today’s fare. The first ten or so minutes were pretty good. Van der Vaart was chucking weight about and it was clear the Bar Codistas were set up every bit like a side that that had been on an awfully good run. But this isn’t to say I believe this draw reflect the natural order of things nor am content. But given the way we failed to cope with their formation, we came out of things none too bad. For the…
Good morning. Late last night I received a phone call from from a withheld number. Here is a brief transcript as best as I can recall it. HH: Hello Manny’s World Of Erotica how can I help? Voice: Mr Harry? HH: Dad? Voice: No Dad. It is me. HH: Who me? Voice: No. no you it is me. HH: Who’s on first? Voice: No like Abbott & Costello. HH: Luka? Voice: Mr Harry I need you help. HH: If this is about that tee shirt money… Voice: What tee shirts? HH: Sorry, different Luka. How is your chicken badge allergy?…
Good evening. Yet more feel good footage. But why ought we be either hesitant or reluctant to indulge in this wondrous stuff, eh? This was in fact posted on the last blog which was itself a tribute to Glenda H. And so a genuine debt of gratitude to the really and quite rightly highly esteemed HH reader, skankehmonkeh for sharing these films that have had – it must be sadly said – quite limited airings. What a treat. On behalf of all of us, thank you.
Good morning. I thought it might be nice to have an upbeat blog before we lose at Newcastle. Only kidding about the losing bit. But the mood has been a bit so-so for some while really. Nothing specific to this two bob blog, rather just the Interlull and such. So scouring the Internet and all the recent stuff didn’t quite do it for me, but I was prompted to share this after seeing it turn up on Spurs Odyssey and this is quite simply a lovely bit of footage. Perhaps we could solicit a few memories of the man and…
Good afternoon. Our old enemy confronts us again. Our squad for the old Bar Codes on Sunday may be heavily depleted. Word is that Adebayor, Sandro, Van der Vaart, Charlie and Krankie are all subject to last minute inflammation inspections. Add to this Les Dawson, Billy Gallas an Dances With Scones who have no return date plus Azza Blud who appears to permanently ‘a bit gouty’ and we are close to a ‘bare bones’ speech from talkSPORT’s number one correspondent. A plethora of absentees. Which for word fans not only means ‘a lot’ but as an archaic medical term refers…
