GTP has closed down, so I’ve been working on setting up a wide-ranging sports/ current affairs/ stuff forum to replacesome parts of it. Towards the end, there was a split between those who wanted a pure Sports board and one that was comfortable covering life.
So, the lightning lounge is here, and growing.

GTP, or Glorify the Past, the best damn Chargers site ever, has closed down. After years of effort and good times, Scott has closed the doors and turned out the lights.
So, two sites have emerged from the ashes - www.boltbunker.com and www.thelightninglounge.com
The first is a pure Sport site, with room for fun. The [...]
Another year, another draft.
This year was much faster than previous years, with reduced time on the clock for selections.
The Bolts have selected according to ‘type’ again, looking for talented players rather than physical specimens. They seem to have got talent, adaptability anf the only question is over how they will develop and how one [...]
Here’s a question:
Does 300 quid sound like a lot of money for a hospitality buffet, beer, wine and skittles at Wembley for the Chargers v New Orleans game? 3 hours before, 1 hour after plus 3 hours of play starts to make it look reasonable - especially if I get thirsty!

The Giants beat the Patriots, which was a surprise. Some great play if not a score-fest.
Watching with a German commentry made for a strange feeling, as did the absence of adverts.
What is worse is that German TV are now showing footage of a train journey with a camera strapped to the front of the [...]
It’s tomorrow. I’ll be in Germany.
I can’t see the Giants beating the Pats - and I’d rather that Junior Seau wins a ring.
Here’s hoping!
It’s all been a bit mad on the Sporting front. The NFL Conference Play-offs happened and despite a brave (and injured - three key players injured and struggling) effort the Patriots beat the Chargers. All a bit depressing except for the way the Bolts have improved during the season and the competitive spirit [...]
This weekend I managed to watch football (Derby) and rugby (Nottingham) ‘live’, in the flesh and then watched a few games (parts of all four) NFL play-off games.
The rugby was really fun, although I expect the openness at National Division 1 or whatever it is comes from teams not being quite as good as their [...]
What a difference a couple of wins make. The Bolts are now out in front in the AFC west and looking pretty good if not world beating.
Winning in KC is always hard. In December it is almost impossible. Yesterday the game plan worked - run and pass rush - despite ridiculous winds [...]
