    It had to happen one day.

    Clitheroe 2-0 down at Rammy get a free-kick on the half way line towards the left hand touchline. The big lads lumber up into the Rammy box and our international keeper Lee Camp trots up to take it. It floats into the box, a Rammy defender heads it out to their left wing and their number 10, who is quite rapid, is onto it and over the halfway line in a flash, with our centre-half trailing vainly in his wake. Lee, who has been ambling back, suddenly senses the danger and scrambles across his box as fast as he can, but the Rammy lad has seen Lee is struggling to get back in time and curls it beautifully round him and into the rapidly diminishing gap from fully 30 yards out.

    I've always thought this was likely to happen one day, but I don't recall ever seeing it before, although it must have happened somewhere before. Why take the risk, any player can dump a free kick from the half way line into the penalty area, why does a keeper have to do it, and leave himself exposed ? In the end it made no difference, we were well beaten at the time and unlikely to get back into it.

    Lee Camp turned out to be a truly great bit of recruitment eh sinkov?

    Actually we've got a bargain mon ami, he wanted £400 a game, but we talked him down to £200. Mr Pace, eat your heart out.

    It had to happen one day. Brenda forks out £12 million to pay off someone her son Andrew allegedly never met.

    I've definitely never met him, what sum do you think is reasonable to sue for?

    Brenda hasn't forked out anything, it's taxpayers like me and you footing the bill, thought you'd know that mon ami.

    You’ve done a great cash builder BT but it will only be £1 if you take a further step away from the Chaser. Take a step closer to the Chaser and they will offer you the Moon on a stick but only if you have the photograph.

    It was alleged this morning Brenda draws a tidy little cash cow from the Duchy of Lancaster treasure chest of about £20 million plus per annum.

    Seeing that she is now 95, that £12 million she has just stumped up is a drop in the ocean.

    The fuss mon ami is about giving an alleged wronged bird £12 million for allegedly never meeting her.

    It's obvious Randy Andy is lying through his teeth, hence the Royal Family have succumbed to blackmail & extortion.

    It does not rest easy with me sinkov.

    I suppose we have got the Royal Family we deserve.

    I still have no idea what the point of having them is all about.

    Just the way it goes BT, rich and powerful people are open to blackmail by gold-diggers, that's what this case is all about, the diggers know no one is going to trust a US court to dispense justice, so they have them by the short and curlies. I believe it's not the first time this lady has had to be bought off. Always surprises me how many women don't realise they're sat on a goldmine. But that's probably just as well for us men.
