    The man so immobile they named a car park after him.

    Gareth Barry

    He was alright as a player. A good prospect in his younger days. Then the rest is down to being a solid, hard working pro willing to take care of himself. Someone I've appreciated more as time has worn on, like James Milner. Not a superstar but someone you want around.

    Some of it in the early years will be due to spending longer in education than their parents but the days of a decent wage for unskilled work are gone.

    Nationalism

    I agree. They're talking about the death of High Streets (which began long before this) but ignoring the local community shops that will have been doing better. IMO would be far better to reconsider city centre's/CBD's as less as the business hub and more like a new housing development but with...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    One thing I'm struggling to get my head round is this "sell TikTok to a US company or we'll ban it" from a party that is supposedly small government. They're literally trying to tell private enterprise who can and can't own them. Part of me would love them to sell it to a company from another...

    But you will at some point in time seen Sugar advising the government on business. Oh, and Phillip Green. So greedy narcissists seem to be the desired outcome for UK business.

    There is an element of that at times. Like with that tweet it wasn't so much the questioning of whether Jones was good enough, as a lot of this board is about giving opinions on player ability, it was more the tone in which it was written which came across as quite nasty.

    Depending on the level he coaches at. Lower level he's got more clout having two L2 promotions to his name but above that he's basically no more than a solid, hardworking pro. Keane at least had major silverware to back it up.

    Match Thread Sky Blues v Boro (double header)?

    Striker next before DCM I reckon. But likely to require one of the current ones to be out the door to accommodate (almost certainly Max)

    Match Thread Sky Blues v Boro (double header)?

    Shipley's not big on the tackling though. Neither are overly suited to the role.

    Match Thread Sky Blues v Boro (double header)?

    It's more than O'Hare and Jones will play in a very similar way. If we're looking at two ACM's IMO you're better having more of a mix with one who will take players on and one who will either play passes or look to get beyond the striker. Unless Jones is going to be asked to do the latter he's...

    I want him to be successful. If he is likelihood is we'll do well. It just seems that people are determined to make him out as a shoe-in to be effective in the Championship based on a good couple of months at the start of the L2 season before his injuries. He's hardly played since, has had two...

    George Floyd

    Do we know which shot actually paralysed him? As far as we know it could've been the first or the seventh. I'm still of the opinion 7 is far too many and the officer wasn't well enough trained to have access to a firearm if they'll just fire off a load of shots in succession.

    George Floyd

    Dunno if anyone else can confirm but I did hear shooting in the leg can actually be a very bad thing to do because it's quite easy to catch major arteries and veins. Plus of course if you're shooting because you're in danger it's unlikely that threat will be coming from the lower half of the...

    So? How many Championship games has he played? Two seasons he's played a decent amount of games he got relegated both times from L2 and L1. At best he's unproven.

    I was sure I read we'd let him go for free because there was a decent sell-on clause involved...?

    It also proves that someone playing regularly as a teenager won't necessarily end up being great.

    Progressive social policy aimed at a fairer, more equitable society and not completely ignoring other issues like environment.

    The list of countries I'd rather not live in is WAY bigger than the ones I would even in an ideal worl where I'd have no barriers to anywhere I liked. I think we have a lot to shout about here, but we also have a lot that needs improvement. Over the last few years it's felt like we're going...

    New Player Incoming - Leo Ostigard

    He isn't a wing back by nature but MR brought him as cover for the right defensive position. And if that is the biggest problem position right now and where he thinks he's most likely to be playing then it's where he'll put him in. CDM is absolute emergency and it has seemed for sometime MR was...
