    Favourite players of the last 25 years?

    I only got them cos the place we got them from (this was when other shops could sell them) a name was included for free on kids shirts. Once it became a cost extra I didn't get them on anymore (plus it'd have look a bit sad on someone who was 14). Hence why the only exception was the kit with...

    As a kid I had my own name put on the back because I was worried if I had my favourite they'd end up getting sold. This was before transfer windows too. Yep, even as a kid I was a boring bastard thinking about the longer term.

    Surprised they haven't put a stop to that with Covid. How many different hands are touching those cups? Hopefully the vaccine will stop the inevitable rise in infections resulting in hospitalisations and deaths.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I really can't see us staying in lockdown (which we're not truly in now anyway, just eased restrictions) for the backlog to be eased. I think the issue with the Nightingale hospitals was staffing. If you'd shoved every covid patient in them then all your doctors and nurses would have been there...

    Because it was only very short term data. It needs to show that it stays that way rather than jumping to conclusions straight off the bat. It'd be like Cov going 1-0 up in the first 10mins and then saying "well, that's this game won then." As far as I can see the most vociferous voices claiming...

    I'm not arguing that the decisions they made was ad hoc and based more on popularity/idealism than data but are they moving goalposts? Let it rip was never official policy even though Johnson talked about it on TV and was no doubt very in favour of it especially early on. They said we could see...

    New supporters club near town?

    Indeed, but it'd be a joke if Nilsson and Shaw got in ahead of Brian Borrows. I think Gary Mac only really had one decent season with us before deciding to leave and Doyle played loads of times and undoubtedly gave his all, but I can't say he was more of a legend than McGrath or Gynn. Bu I can...

    That's either far too small or far too large a pitch.

    If the tickets were gold dust I'd keep them - worth far more.

    Wrong end of the stick. It was another human v computer chess game and it finished with checkmate, not Czech, mate.

    But the goalposts haven't been moved. Every date they've set for opening restrictions they've kept.

    If they were attending a conference on modern slavery would you take a load of unpaid interns as your team? Given the shit Alexander has got up to of course this is nothing, and it will have no bearing on his popularity (maybe Con +1) but it does highlight just how insensitive he is to...

    Students decide to take down a picture of the Queen. Other people make a massive fuss about it so it's mentioned in the press. Who's keeping the 'culture war' going?

    So the person widely rumoured to be plotting Johnson's downfall with Cummings then. It's a joke. Like when opposition leaders are constantly getting arrested on corruption charges. I've got little doubt that the ruling is correct, but It's just amazing how all those other contracts were fine...
