Monday's Peninsula Breakfast Briefing
By Derek Davis 26th Oct 2020
Did you know?
The Football Association was born on this day, which was also a Monday, in 1863. London solicitor Ebenezer Morley is credited with being the father of the modern game and the rules which govern it, when representatives met for the first tie at the Freemason's Tavern in Great Queen Street, near to where Holborn tube station is now. All clubs in England from Pin Mill Pirates to Liverpool are members of the FA.Today's Peninsula sunrise: 06:40

OpenQuote of the day:
We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.T. S. Eliot
Joke of the day:
God and the devil were having an argument, and Satan proposed a football game between heaven and hell to resolve the dispute. God, in his eternal goodness, pointed out that it wouldn't be a fair match because all the '˜good' players go to heaven. The devil smiled, replying, "Yes, but we've got all the refs."
