    Oh Lord - RIP John Sillett

    Ninety minutes of "George and John's, Sky Blue Army" works for me. :)

    Oh Lord - RIP John Sillett

    I'd been a few times before, but it was that 86-87 season where I really started going to every game. It was bloody magical that cup run; I can remember waiting for the draw every Monday lunchtime to see where we were going next. (Old Trafford, and we won!!). What a team George & John built...

    Jodi Jones

    If he adds to our match day squad, even off the bench, then I don't think it makes sense to put him out on loan. If he's nowhere near the squad, then it's a different story. As with most things, I think MR has managed it well. In the words of that old cliché, it could be that come Jan/Feb it'll...

    Selling House Privately

    Good work mate, you've played this well. Must be a bit of relief that things are looking promising. Treat yourself to a beer, tell the missus that I said it would be ok. 🙂

    As long as the dangly bit at the front doesn't look like a picnic bar, I think you should be ok. 🙂

    Time to go Robins

    No wish to pile onto the chap, but my personal opinion is that Robins has created a team that is far, far more than the sum of its parts, and punches well above its weight. What more could we ask of a manager, free beer?

    This makes for an interesting read. No doubt the anti-vax loons will think it's all pretend. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/nov/21/icu-is-full-of-the-unvaccinated-my-patience-with-them-is-wearing-thin

    Tin-foil hat conspiracy theories are funny when they're about NASA faking moon-landings or the Queen being an alien. This is too serious to allow dickheads to abuse their free speech though, because it literally costs lives. Frankly, you should be ashamed of yourself. If anyone is a c**t...

    Match Thread Birmingham City (H) - 7:45 Tue 23rd Nov

    It's violent conduct. That's why it's a red. Kicking the player, not even attempting to play the ball. Should've had a yellow for the studs up on Hamer, again that's a dangerous, cowardly challenge.

    Selling House Privately

    Absolutely, it'd certainly give you a feel for it, but things like a new bathroom, new kitchen, or posh decor can put an awful lot on houses that are otherwise identical. Or vice versa, of course. And yes, estate agent valuations are strange things, but the trick of overvaluing a property...

    Brexit Benefits

    Ah, bless, you voted for something you didn't really understand and because you're a teensy tiny bit of a snowflake you get upset when people point out the inherent stupidity of that decision. Don't hide behind fake humour, love, it's not healthy. Call a waahmbulance to take you somewhere safe...

    Selling House Privately

    I'm not saying you're wrong, but that would be slack work. There are lots of things that can make fairly big differences to a property's value, even if they're on the same street. Ultimately of course, it's worth what someone is willing to pay for it, but averaging out the street data isn't...

    What if…?

    Brilliant post. I never knew any of that history... (Edit: Apart from WWII, I think I saw that mentioned briefly somewhere) :)

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Just on the morals of going to Wasps: I've got a mate or two who go occasionally. I don't fall out with them, I just explain to them why I think Wasps shouldn't be here. They're still mates though, I don't consider them immoral, or at least any more immoral than they already were. :) The...

    A bit like football, a good rule here is to play the ball and not the man. If OSB has said something in his analyses that you disagree with, ESB, then just challenge him on the facts. There's no reason for this to get personal...

    Selling House Privately

    I'd politely disagree here FP. Without boring you my work involves using valuation data and the 'desktop' valuation stuff isn't considered to be quite as good as a proper valuation. In fairness lenders like a surveyor's opinion more than an estate agent's, but either would likely be more...

    Selling House Privately

    Sorry to hear about your mum mate, this can't be an easy time. I'd agree with the stuff above, get a couple of valuations from Estate Agents first, and see if the neighbour is willing to match. Bear in my that in my experience estate agents tend to overvalue a bit, to pull you in. So if the...

    You'll leave it there because you haven't got any actual response. Stick to fireworks and flags and leave the rugby to people who actually like and understand the game. You've never yet backed up one of your posts with anything factual or even vaguely interesting. You were making stuff up on...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    L Ha. You've got a young team, not out of choice, but because the bond's been spunked on 'marquee' players who didn't want to stick around. So much for richest team in Europe, eh. Also, I'm not sure that the performances can be there if the results aren't, but then I've seen elsewhere that...
