    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Inside No 9 was back earlier this week and brilliant as ever. The podcast is back on BBC Sounds as well which is well worth a listen.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Are these things cancelled because the booker has had some moral epiphany or because they are worried about running the event safely? Seems unworkable, venue says we can't put this event on and guarantee everyone's safety and security - what happens then?

    Derby County deduction?

    Even if you ignore the accounts submission something was off about the way they went from not being able to pay wages to signing more players than anyone else without a takeover going through was a bit suspect to say the least.

    Got to be a wind up, he's suggested the same for Baka.

    Man Utd v Liverpool on Sky

    Yep, and a lot of extra security. Man Utd team got to Old Trafford early to get in before it and Liverpool used a different entrance while their, empty, usual team bus went the normal way in.

    School Protests

    Hope so, certainly needs to be tougher penalties. Although as recently as January the government were resisting calls to make changes to the law so I'm not too hopeful.

    Club Shop at the Ricoh

    Wonder if we're getting a pub as well. If not at the Ricoh at least nearby. Yesterday the club posted about Dhillons wanting Sky Blue's memorabilia. Today they're posting about the Sky Blue Tavern. I know they already open on matchdays but if they're planning to make it a Sky Blue pub that...

    School Protests

    Will certainly welcome it when it happens. They should probably have let their MPs know so they don't make statements saying its not needed when questioned on why they voted against it, 'It is self-evident that animals are sentient and UK law already recognises this fact'.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I think you could have made the 'they couldn't have expected this, get them home' argument a year ago but not now. Anyone travelling to any other part of the world knows perfectly well they're taking a risk. Reading articles like this makes you wonder just what people were thinking...

    School Protests

    Will be welcome if it happens, given that the article mentions some of this has been promised since 2017 and hasn't been implemented I'll reserve my praise until then. Have they said why they are introducing it now when in 2017 they voted against it and claimed it was unnecessary as existing...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    To be honest I'd be up for similar restrictions to Australia if that's what it takes. But at the very least get the quarantine in place as soon as the experts say it is needed. How many times do we have to repeat the same mistakes?

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Have you read the article? It quotes Indian doctors saying there's a huge surge in younger patients, with 65% of hospital admissions under 45. Also talks about symptomatic cases in children under the age of 12 when there was virtually none prior to the variant. Of course we need to open back...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Can't see that they would not be going as quickly as possible, what would be the advantage in that? The only time my local centre has stopped vaccinating is when they have got too far ahead of the rest of the country and been told to pause. Guess they don't want any accusations of it being a...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Was thinking the news reports of lockdown being extended due to the B.1.617.2 were just media talk but listening to Cleverly this morning it sounds very much like it could happen. Very much back to the 'following the science' line which they tend to use when something they think will be...

    Stadiums

    They do but equally they spend ridiculous amounts, often often taxpayer money, and class a 20 year old stadium as old and in need of knocking down and replacing! Also have a tendency to put them in the middle of nowhere. Imagine how people who moaning about the Ricoh being out of town would...

    Liam Kelly, Kyle Mcfazdean and Dom Hyam

    I think anyone who is expecting a huge overhaul of the squad is in for a disappointment. Fact is you could do it in L1 / L2 as you were mainly picking up cheap or out of contract players. Not sure you can build a squad of genuine Championship quality players on frees even before you consider...

    Wouldn't be surprised to see that happen before we reach the point where he'd be able to speak with other clubs.
