    Womens football

    I really don't get the need to compare all the time. Wouldn't the better option be to find a unique selling point and push that. I watch women's cricket and I enjoy it because it has a whole different vibe to watching the mens game. I'd be far less interested if they were just trying to play...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    There's some on YouGov, very quick google would seem to suggest most polls showing roughly the same results and support for Israel rapidly decreasing

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    If you're looking at polling numbers on this you need to look at the responses from people who voted Labour in the last election and they are not good for Starmer. The next question should be how will that impact on people's willingness to vote labour at the next election.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Ballard on Amazon Prime starting Maggie Q. Only a couple of episodes in but its watchable without being anything amazing. Pretty standard police procedural type show, Ballard runs a cold cases division staffed with an ex-cop and volunteers. Set in the same universe as Bosch but I've never seen...

    Things that annoy you

    The insane amount of adverts of Amazon Prime. At least on sky you can fast forward the adverts. At the point where I'm going to not watch stuff because the ad breaks are too annoying.

    Masterchef gets cooked

    Looks like the BBC don't actually own the rights to Masterchef. Can't find any mention of Masterchef as one of BBC Worldwide's big earners. The three brands that repeatedly come up are Top Gear, Doctor Who and BBC Earth, which covers all the BBC's natural history output.

    Oasis Reunion

    kind of sums up why a fence was needed doesn't it. people get told not to do something because it will cause damage in the area, do it anyway

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I get the need to means test, although I doubt anyone with millions in the bank is going in the sort of care homes you and I are dealing with, but the limit is way to low. You can burn through that in a matter of months. Bad enough burning through your kids inheritance but in a lot of cases...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I have never known anything as totally not fit for purpose as care for the elderly. Every part of the system is a complete and utter shambles and the only thing anyone in a position of power seems interested in is how to push more of the cost onto the person in care, or more realistically their...

    cricket 2025

    Seems the only people that can't see this, or are deliberately ignoring it, are the ECB. Now you've got IPL franchise owners involved we're fucked. There was an interview with one of the franchise owners on Tailenders a couple of years back and it was a horrific insight into how they view...

    Womens football

    One thing that really bugs me about the women's game is the need to over hype everything. The tv ratings for the game peaked at 7.4m, which is obviously going to be the penalty shootout. Now you've got idiots on social media declaring it's proof that the women's game is as popular as the mens...

    Transfer Rumour Carl Rushworth

    Interesting that it's being reported as a season long loan. Would be nice to get to a point where we have Dovin fit again and our goalkeeping problem becomes we've two quality keepers, neither of whom wants to be on the bench. That will be a big improvement over picking the one least likely to...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    What is mental about this article is that the numbers haven't gone down because we've started processing people faster, or because there's less people coming into the country. They've come down because they are now put in places that are cheaper which raises the very obvious question of why...

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    that's how football fans think. its not how the people who look at the finances think. you've got clubs at the top trying to reduce the number of season ticket holders so they can sell more tickets to day trippers on holiday at inflated prices ffs.

    Do we have any vaguely competent political parties in this country?
