    Things that annoy you

    Is anyone elses lives dominated and blighted by "women-time"? Moans at me for taking 20 minutes in the shower and then she takes a 35/40 minute shower. Gives my a large amount of DIY jobs to do but whenever I say I want to do them she won't allocate me anytime to do it. We have to be...

    European championships 2020 thread

    It's a bit brazen and disrespectful to talk about being in an imaginary final when we haven't beaten Ukraine yet. I've seen previous English flops enough to get carried away but it feels like the media and fans are spunking their load already.

    European championships 2020 thread

    The only reassuring thing about England ATM is the fans and hopefully media letting Gareth and the team know that the standard set so far is not good enough. We've got home advantage, an easy group and apparently lots of young attacking players, why so crap? Either improve massively against...

    European championships 2020 thread

    Typical disappointing England performance. Pedestrian, no threat, slow tempo and acting like it's still a pre-tournament friendly.

    I went past yesterday and the outside is being painted all dark blue.

    Volunteering

    15 years ago I spent some time volunteering for Warwickshire Wildlife Trust based in Brandon. I had a great time helping to maintain their nature reserves, using different tools and mixing with older people. It was also good to discover many hidden corners of our county that I hadn't seen before.

    Forwards

    We have conceded the 3rd most goals in the league so I'd look at firstly improving the defence. I think we need better wing backs. This isn't meant as a dig at Godden either but how many games is a player supposed to play for him to be seen as up to fitness? Have we got to wait for 2/3 of the...

    Things that annoy you

    It might not be related but when I started to do night shifts in my late twenties that's when my hair started to thin out. I could only get 2/3 hours sleep each day. There was a long discussion on the radio a while ago talking about possible links to certain health related issues and other...

    Final Position Predictor

    Preston will be getting more than 1 point between now and the end of the season regardless of who they play. Some teams are one or two wins from safety.

    Dutch/Belgian league merge

    Thank you for your information. I used to have a minor interest in Belgian football 20 years ago but obviously don't know as much as you. Are you based in Belgium?

    Dutch/Belgian league merge

    Belgian football seems very familiar with merges. Over the past 25 years financial difficulties resulted in a few Belgian clubs merging, some clubs merged with rivals. And even after the merges some clubs have dropped down the league's, and off the radar (RWD Molenbeek, a club of previous merges...

    Todays games

    We should have learned by now that one up front doesn't work for us, it is annoying seeing this when we are gifting goals almost every game. Robins should accept that our defending is dodgy, put 2 up front and be trying to win games 3-2, 4-3.... Biamou with Godden or Walker Do not play Kelly...

    Harry and Megan interview with Oprah Winfrey

    I haven't watched the interview but it all feels very one sided to me. Some sections of the US press (CNN) are going beserck with their anti-UK coverage. There's more than one side to a story. The other detached from reality royalty in Hollywood are firing off their own opinions and linking it...

    Who knows Bedworth?

    I moved not far from there in 2019 and it's been the best move I've ever made. Seems like people are a little bit more friendly. There's far too much attitude in Cov.

    Form last 5-10-15 matches

    I suppose we might be able to field closer to our strongest team in February if Marosi, Rose, Walker return.

    Form last 5-10-15 matches

    Is winning all or even half of our games against top 6 teams realistic? Rotherham (relegation zone) are 6 points behind us. They also have 2 games in hand too.

    Form last 5-10-15 matches

    I'm happy about last night's win but I feel a lot of people are getting carried away. Our February fixtures look very difficult to get points and we might end up in the relegation zone if the teams below get a few wins. Birmingham (19th) away Forest (20th) home Watford (3rd) home Cardiff...

    Lottery

    It's a bit upsetting when you calculate how much you spend over the years 😮 I emptied my penny jar when I first started doing the lottery. It was about £45 and I spent it all on lottery tickets. I don't remember getting any winnings back. Maybe for 1 year I should try spending £400 on some...

    Lottery

    About 6 years ago my mum got 5 numbers and won just over £1000. Nice but not life changing. I doubt I'll ever know anyone again that gets 5 numbers. I play it every week and infrequently win a lucky dip. I haven't gotten 3 numbers in years. The frequent roll overs makes me think it's a bit of a...
