Eclecticism. Not random, just tangential. Possibly not here at all. Seeking refuge from that other place.

All those years I thought your hair was a Merson tribute act (as mine was 35 years ago) and I now realise you're actually just a moustache away from a moody David Seaman...

The translation from Danish is arguably worse. It's named as a Great scaup, great and great crested grebes and "Large skull-eater", which is *almost* a literal translation, but only if you get confused about "skal"(shell). Apparently it should not be confused with a crested martin (not a species)

Top twelve of the Champions League table after 4 games. Every other club is English. All six English teams i the top twelve. Only other league with more than one team is Spain, with two - in 7th and 11th. English teams are 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th and 12th.

What an incredibly unlikely top four after 9 games. No-one could have imagined this as the top of the table nearly a quarter of the way into the season.
Who in their right mind would have dreamed of Spurs being there?

I see the startlist quality rating has gone up a bit in the Giro del Veneto, though I think about 300 of those points are UAE farming late season Italian 1.Pro races they should be leaving to the PCT and CT teams. FFS, Del Toro doesn't need another chipper.

Of course. Liam Brady walks on water, we all know, so Sunday is obviously his.
Here he is playing in a friendly against Whales.

Can Pog be stopped? I don't think so. Is that bad for cycling? Yes. I normally do something like this for each of the big races - and settle down to 5-6 hours live watching. Today I don't know when live coverage starts and am wondering when the chemist closes and if I can squeeze a pint in.

The UCI helmet measurement regulations coming into force next season make it clear that they don't want fridge-headed Man U & England defender Harry Maguire to take up cycling
