The Tanner Report/A memorable day

It was a long but satisfying day travelling up to Sheffield by car with Bob Tickler’s Godson Jamie and 2 other Fulham supporters. Sheffield Wednesday fielded a team of reserves and despite taking the lead were all but overwhelmed by a stronger Fulham team who won 2-1 but failed to maximise [...]

Golfsixes

A new format was presented yesterday on the European Tour namely internationally paired four balls played over 6 holes over 2 days. It’s marketed as golf’s attempt at T20: quicker, more razzmatazz for the younger audience who in our compressed accelerated age has they say no time for 4 [...]

British Gas saga ( part two)

My father had a wonderful phrase to describe a dashboard of the motor cars which he liked to trade every two years: “It’s got the mug’s eyeful” I cannot think of better description of the smart meter whose most useful feature is the clock and has many of which I am unaware [...]

Fulham’s flowering youth

Over the years I have supported the Whites we have produced some impressive youngsters. Johnny Haynes went on to captain England and another one club Cottager George Cohen a World Cup winner. In the sixties we produced loyal servants like Fred Callaghan and Stan Brown and a crop of exciting kids in [...]

The Tanner Report- phew!

Fulham have earned the reputation over all the years I have supported them as the Great Escapologists with the most unlikely of results but conversely they have tormented us by failing to finish the simplest of jobs. Yesterday all we needed to do was beat or equal Leeds’s result. We drew, [...]

Summing up

Today I’m the last to leave of the National Rust party. It’s gone well. I prefer the apartment with its stunning views over the Baie des Anges and greater space to last year’s more cramped one. With the help of Alice Mansfield we have made cultivating excursions to the museums of [...]

Golfing update

With our pages dominated by those cavorting on the Riviera I have had less opportunity to boast about my golf betting.

The French elections

Michel de Vacri I’m no Macron fan. He has no political experience, formed his own party En Marche, and therefore no affiliation, no representation in the Assemblee Nationale. This was an election for the traditional right to win and surely would have done so had Fillon stood down after the [...]

The Tanner Report/a dream becomes a reality

It was only a month ago that the Fulham play-off challenge seemed to stutter after losing at home to Wolves. Since then we have won 5 out of 6 with some notable away scalps at Norwich when reduced to 10 men and Huddersfield yesterday. To go one down and then beat them 4-1 in a febrile atmosphere is [...]
