For me, the parking costs really are not an issue - in most places around Stockton, it is £1 for 3 hours parking. It must bring in a slow, steady stream of income to an ever-struggling authority. I don't want free parking, I'd prefer a Mayor who understands the needs of Tees Valley residents...

Same - I had to Google it and learnt it is Chris McEwan. Even his Facebook account doesn't necessarily shout "I'm trying to become a local Mayor!". It is quite sparse.

Great to see Portsmouth back on the up! Great memories of going there last game of the season back in '04 - despite getting battered 4-0 with the emergence of a "young gentleman" called Yakubu!

There is a phenomenal player in there - I hope he can get his mindset in check.

Stop talking sense and get your pitchfork, man! 👀

The guy will fetch at least 10 Majors. His swing is almost faultless. It was Scheffler's to lose before a ball was struck on Thursday, to be honest. The guy is so consistent without being flashy. Historically, his Achilles heel was his putting inside 10ft, he barely made any. When he...

Not sure if you have listened already but Neil Cox and Craig Hignett's are both great listens as plenty of dirt on the Boro! Especially Rav and Juninho's Sunday lunch spat! They do seem to enjoy the Boro lads on there. There has been Downing, Wheater and Arca too.

Really enjoyed the past couple - Lee Trundle and Chris Lumsdon were both good listens.

To be fair, he did say he was reading the programme and came across this game. There is a section in the programme On this Day. He is being purely observational which is something you would do in live commentary. We all know that every aspect of a football game isn't worth commenting on. He...

Archer was (still is) a clinical striker - you can't help but feel that his goals against Sheff Utd at Bramall Lane last year contributed towards his signature. A very natural finisher, very much like Jermaine Defoe. Always the right weight and precision on shots at goal.

The correct answer is Jimmy v Man City and every other one falls into pale insignificance. We'll be hard pressed to see a free kick with such power and balls again - Greenwood v Leicester was good but it was a finesse goal. Hasselbaink threw the kitchen sink at that ball. A strike of a true...

Horrendous. Whilst I understand there are always two sides to a story, your job as a bouncer largely involves restraining attackers and assisting tired clubgoers (in my experience). It doesn't involve Kevin Nash power bombing young adults into the pavement. Any bouncer worth their salt will...

Anyone thought that maybe Sunderland can afford to have lower ST prices compared to MFC?? MFC is a business. It has to run like a business. Its been 6 weeks, stop moaning about it.

It actually wasn't that bad last year! I was working in Saltburn on the Sunday and managed to grab a 30 minutes on the bank itself to watch the riders struggle up!

Bishopton Lane Dental in Stockton were taking on NHS patients at the end of 2023, not sure if that is still the case but I went there from Station Road in Eaglescliffe after having an appointment cancelled but having them explain "we have an affordable private dentist available". I bet you do...
