    6 championship clubs need bailout

    My thought process would be that the PL gives the EFL a pot of money for emergency bailout which can then be loaned (not given) to clubs in exchange for a points penalty depending on the amount. When EFL loans are in place, clubs are put under a transfer embargo and there could even be certain...

    Project Big Picture...

    Couple of quick points: 1. Could it not be that these owners/chairmen you refer to would rather not delay the inevitable so that the elite piss off to their super league and they get the football league? 2. It’s difficult to blame owners/chairmen of clubs who are weeks away from going bust and...

    Things that annoy you

    Couple of instances of this I’ve found out about in the last day or so. One chap who had a positive test played Sunday League football yesterday. Now banned for the rest of the season. Another chap who tested positive trying to go to the pub and was told by the landlord to fuck off. Don’t get it...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Alternatively, you’re chatting shite. I know which one I’m backing.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    So this devious plan to install socialism involves not picking a socialist candidate because they’ll be beaten and instead going for someone at the right of the party to act as a puppet. A little far fetched, no?

    Ok. Now Nancy Pelosi is part of this ‘far-left’ bogeyman team. Give me strength.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Feels utterly appropriate you’d be using Equality to make your point. It’s not even that much money ffs.

    Biden is far from socialist. Nice try though.

    Bright

    That or the bad influences went with him, he carries a rather mean entourage after all.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Still convinced Andy Burnham will be next Labour leader (and appreciate it’s going a little off-topic!). In fairness to Johnson, I don’t think it can be expected that he knows all restrictions in different places. Same as when the old “how much does a loaf of bread cost” comes out to show how...

    Pass code for iFollow

    I changed my email address in the last 10 years but have never changed it with the club, ergo I now don’t seem to be able to get this game through my ifollow (in another email account). Ah well, pub for me.

    The Social Dilemma

    Yep, really good but equally really scary.

    Forgotten Trialists and Signings

    The one that always remains with me is Che Bunce. Signed by (I think) Micky Adams at around the same time we had Colin Hawkins. Never played a game for us, went back to New Zealand and apparently became an estate agent.

    Barnsley Player Ratings

    Context, I suppose. I would struggle to say anyone on either team had a good game today. Hamer and McFadz were the best out there for me, but neither brilliant, just reasonable and effective. It’s more an indictment on the quality of the match than the quality of the team.

    Barnsley Player Ratings

    I should point out I don’t have anything against either Sheaf or Godden. In fact, I definitely think there’s a player in Sheaf but today was such a bad game to throw him in, no time to get his rhythm at all and he looked rather terrible. Godden’s first touch was non-existent and he seemed way...

    Barnsley Player Ratings

    Marosi 6 Ostigard 6 McFadz 7 Hyam 6 Dabo 5 Sheaf 4 Hamer 7 Giles 6 O’Hare 6 Allen 5 Godden 4 Shipley 6 Walker 5 We were warned that the game would be scrappy as fuck. Horrible match to watch. However, a number of ours weren’t on it today.

    Quitting smoking

    Should say, Blind Faith, that you’ll likely go stir crazy for the first couple of days. Break the three day mark and it is very easy from there.

    Quitting smoking

    Vaping has benefits both financially (it’s far cheaper) and health-wise (you’ll feel better) but is still keeping the addiction, as Mark says above. Plus vaping is really hard to pack in as you can do it pretty much anywhere and there’s little/no scent. I smoked for about 5-6 years, then vaped...
