At one point one of our coaches tried to speak to the 4th official and he literally gave him the ‘talk to the hand’ They aren’t interested. They think they’re doing a fantastic job and everyone criticising them is wrong.

Might be a decent walk up with the weather looking much better than was forecast at the moment

Not sure you get a huge amount of money if you’re on the sick. But irrespective of that you need to look at the causes and how you can help people back into work. Most people do actually want to work and aren’t on the sick for an easy life. Can’t see that number getting much lower tbh when you...

How many 'feckless' are there living it large? I remember when my job was in jeopardy during covid I had a look how much I'd be entitled to and it was fuck all, I would have been on the streets within a month. Not sure I buy the idea that there's huge numbers of people having a nice comfortable...

don't really go away these days due to family commitments but thinking back to when I did can't really remember stewards telling people to sit where they want very often. Happened every now and then when we'd be rattling round an empty away end. I can imagine the people who sign off on event...

presume it was because sky would have had an advert earlier so they timed it for right up to kick off to get it on there

3 hours max, but the station is £5.50 for weekend parking. They don't do an evening rate so you'd need Grosvenor Road car park or the SkyDome for evening games. If they keep running these wouldn't be a bad idea to add a stop at the park and ride at the memorial.

Why should that be the case? I can't imagine any safety group or event planner going 'well its football so the rules don't apply. Just let them do what they want and cross your fingers there's no issues'.

Why does this apply to football but not any other event? I have a group of people I go to gigs with, the group is larger than the usual limit for buying tickets in one transaction so we buy our own tickets and end up sat in different parts of the venue. We meet up pre-gig and post-gig. It...

You're far from the first person I've heard say that. Just reading through this thread tells you everything you need to know, people who don't give a shit about anybody else's concerns as what they want is the priority over everything. Football must be the only event where you buy an allocated...

He's going to play after his leg has been amputated? That's a real captain!

From outside looking in he seems happy with that and a good guy to have around the squad. Don't think we're going to be in the position to have 2 genuine contenders for the no 1 spot unless we get to the Prem so on that basis I'd have no problem if Robins gives him a new contract to stay here as...

Really odd, why would you publish that now. Not even like its one old story they've dug up, they've merged two together.

I’d be looking to start the changes higher up tbh, the people in charge seem more concerned with property development than running a successful cricket club

so what I'm getting from this thread is that everything good that happens is nothing to do with the management & coaching team, everything bad that happens is entirely their fault

Our fans are fucking weird sometimes. People were loving it when Mcfadzean came over to us at the Blackburn game last season, a player who had 5 other clubs before us. Yet for some reason showing some appreciation for a player who came through our academy and has gone on to be a top PL player...

Why do people always talk like we have to bin one player off. Can't we be happy to have squad depth, to be able to rotate & rest players, to have cover for injuries?

One place I worked are line manager went on holiday. Without him there we got so far ahead we had to stop working as there was no room left to store stuff waiting to go out to site. We had a more senior manager come down and give us a bollocking. He didn't care that normally it was complete...

Seems like a right wing government grandstanding to its supporters while doing fuck all. The difference between what the party has tweeted out and what is actually happening is huge.

Decent managers don't need to monitor people, they know when people are getting shit done and when people are taking the piss. The more you micro manage people and monitor every little thing they do the more people do the bare minimum.
