    I do - he's OK. Not sure about his dress sense though.

    If I'm totally honest with you I think you've rushed into that way too quickly. You and Tom don't seem very well suited IMO.

    F1 2021

    This is it in a nutshell. Sell more tickets over the weekend by having a competitive element to the F1 everyday.

    Basically a way of absolving themselves of blame and responsibility but not doing something unpopular. "If people go out and get ill it's their fault for doing so. We advised them not to"

    There is a thought that the high incarceration levels are actually deliberate because it's how America remains competitive. Basically it gets used as slave labour.

    Too late. They're already over there training.

    I agree. My disappointment comes from the fact everyone knew that was going to happen, it then did happen and yet we did pretty much nothing to prevent it, or indeed to try and regain the initiative. They had two ageing centrebacks, one of whom was on a yellow card for most of the second half...

    This could be a masterstroke or a massive powder keg. Hope it's the former.

    His ego. He wants the adulation as scoring the winner.

    Be surprised if the team that miss first are more likely to win a shootout. Purely because they're already at a disadvantage. Away team I think I could get as the nervousness and tension in the stands when the home team take a penalty may be harder to deal with than hostility towards an away...

    I liked the ABBA system and felt it levelled out the pressure well. Not ideal but better than ABAB in my opinion. For some reason people didn't seem to like it though and it got dropped.

    But we're putting a lot of resources (financial, technical and human) into keeping track of Covid and I can't see that being feasible longer term as it takes it away from other areas. We only know which variants are spreading because they're spreading rather than we identified them beofre they...

    I think we may see some of these established players join clubs quite late in pre-season as they will be holding out for offers but with the market situation and Covid I think many will be disappointed and eventually sign shorter-term contracts on less money hoping the market recovers next year...

    McCallum to QPR

    Burroughs isn't a RB, RW or RWB by nature as far as I know but a attacking midfielder who can go a bit wider if necessary (SBChimp I'm sure can correct me if I'm wrong). Eccles isn't either - he's a DCM. I'm sure they'd be willing to play there if asked but I feel we'd be doing them a...

    No-one put in the score. I'm taping it and don't want to know the score beforehand.

    It's really annoying how we've got a small number of people who have to be complete and utter dicks all the time. To a much lesser even the dick that invaded the pitch. All this is going to ensure there's a reason to make sure we don't host a tournament for a fair while. As for the abuse...

    But in both tournaments he had pretty favourable fixtures, and this one was practically at home for us. I'll admit I got quite a few things wrong about this tournament. I wasn't convinced on Maguire's fitness. I wasn't sure about Phillips and Rice but both were immense. I thought the likes of...

    I think being in the Lords gives you more freedom to not tow the line. Most of the moderates have been removed after the necessity to pledge allegiance to Boris and his Brexit deal at the last election.

    I know regardless of party cabinet positions are handed out more regarding politics and power deals than relevant experience but it would be a pleasant surprise to have a cabinet based around at least some sort of experience in the sector they're in charge of. But with most politicians being...
