Jezza’s manifesto…

“For the many, not the few!!” For proper people, just not the Jew It’s a time for change that is REAL Not some empty, same-old spiel Whose side are you on??? I’ll repeat that til long after you’ve gone Because in the absence anything worthwhile That really wouldn’t be my style So I’ll bombard you – Read More-

What ya didn’t know…

Who knows where Scunthorpe is? I didn’t. No idea. Just looked it up and its up by the Humber Estuary, just south west of Hull, in North Lincolnshire. Now ya know. Though it all gets a bit vague when you travel up past Luton, I know, just a vast northern wilderness of strange accents, stranger – Read More-

Its comin’…

It’s comin’. The General Election that ‘everyone’ wants. Everyone needs. Everyone’s gagging for, chewing the bit, climbing the walls, simply MAD for. Its here. The Tories are desperate for it, because they need the majority in the House that they don’t currently enjoy. Labour would bite your arm off for it because its now time – Read More-

First love…

Football was my first love And it will be my last… Football of the future And football of the paaaaast That was a pop song in nineteen something or other. Terrible bleedin’ song, so I changed the lyric a touch due to ‘artistic freedom’. Yet the sentiment is true. Football was my ‘first love’ and – Read More-

Joking…

Have you seen Joker yet? Then you should. It’s remarkable. Brilliant. Mesmerising. And a bit brutal. Joaquin Phoenix plays the eponymous hero(??) in a study of a sick, warped and abused mind. Mel found it too long and too slow. Pretty much as she finds every movie due to her lack of patience with everything – Read More-

If only…

If only Maro Itoje was our Prime Minister, and Kieran Read the leader of the opposition, life would be so simple. Because everyone would know their roles and everything would go like clockwork and there’d be no posturing, no posing, no cheating; no room for liars, procrastinators, deliberators or outright masturbators. As seems to be – Read More-

Affluent…

Yesterday was Lila-day and I was sitting with her doing… whatever, when she just suddenly said; apropos of nothing; ‘grand-daughter’ and laughed. But said it properly, beautifully (she’s a posh bird, or will be once she masters ‘L’ and ‘G’… ‘J’… ‘K”….‘Z’…). And I said, ‘yes?’ And she repeated it as if the word itself – Read More-

High flyers…

It’s always the same; the only sin in public life is hypocrisy. So they’ve gone and calculated the carbon footprints of lots of holier-than-thou and greener-than-green type ‘planet-savers’ to see if they ‘walk the walk’, rather than ‘fly the plane’. And it would appear that only Greta Thundberg is worth listening to without thinking ‘yeah, – Read More-

Now you’re gonna believe us…

Well, it had to happen at some stage, I suppose. Spurs won a game. And not just won in any normal sense, but really, really WON! Beating Red Star Belgrade 5-nil at the Tottenham stadium. But its not really about beating out-classed Serbians, given a place in the top European competition on the grounds that – Read More-

Different…

I’ve found another gender difference. And I’m just talking about the 2 ‘primary’ genders here, for simplicity, and because I can’t be bothered with the other 32 in between. In this context. But I’m always keen to find a good, honest, pure gender difference, mainly because that’s what keeps them ‘primary’ and prevents us turning – Read More-
