Summer's here and the time is right for watching lots of international football on the telly. This forum is for team news, match reports, shirt analysis and deconstruction, tactical suggestions by otf experts, dreams involving Michel Platini and any other Euro 2008-related activity.

UK and world football analysed and debated by the sharpest, most relaxed, sober and objective panel of pundits on the web.

Politics, science, philosophy, beer, religion, travelogues, food, love, sex, death and piss-taking.

Argue the toss about favourite groups, records, top ten lists, most influential bassist, how much you've blown on old vinyl on Ebay... or discuss your own compositions and recordings.

Reviews, analysis, tips, fave directors, lists, script ideas, stuff about French actresses plus dramas, soaps, reality shite, gameshows, sitcoms and rants about how there are thousands of channels and still there's nothing decent on.

Razor-sharp analyses of cricket, rugby (posh and northern), darts, er, snooker, baseball, American football, running and stuff, weightlifting, horseracing, cycling, bowls, fishing. And that's just for starters...

Reviews, top 20 lists, new releases, the classics, lit-crit on the hoof, half-baked theories, plus loads of stuff about Richard Dawkins not being as funny as he used to be. New writers welcome... our sensitive audience would love to read excerpts from your manuscripts.
