    100 years from now

    100 years time - god knows what it'll be like. By then the entire game may well be officiated by technology and as has been said actually being in the stadium will be totally unnecessary. By then you'd probably have some form of camera all over the pitch and even on the players so you can watch...

    Next Seasons Confirmed Squad/Transfer Rumours

    Part of the reason I like the off-season is because we get these new faces in and you can imagine they're going to set the world alight and how great next season's going to be. It's the reality of when matches start that ruins it when some of those players don't settle or turn out to be shite/lazy.

    England cricket 2019

    Was it down to complacency? Low total to get, we've been getting high scores for quite a while. It's the problem with having that kind of batting line-up - it's very explosive and when it works it works unbelievably. But when it doesn't there's not really anyone other than Root to provide a...

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    Of all the stuff the papers could focus on on Boris (and let's face it there's far too much to list here) they've decided a domestic argument is one worth running with? Only bit of it that I thought might be even slightly worthy of explanation is the neighbour apparently hearing her say "get...

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    It does seem odd that people wanting BRITAIN to be out of the EU are willing to see the end of Britain to make it happen. It's like "if we can't have it nobody can have it"

    When we were allowed to play football last season, as the better teams tended to let us do as they wanted to play themselves, we looked as good as anyone. Our big problem was in breaking down teams that didn't want to let us play and when we did putting those chances away. I really think last...

    Sponsor incoming

    I think it's nice to have a local company as the shirt sponsor, although like many I didn't think their logo looked great. I don't get why they have the ampersand as the prominent feature? I'd either have it in smaller font between the two words, or if they really want it large in the...

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    Yes - it's a proper protest vote that would get recorded as such - it's a true voice of dissatisfaction. Spoiled ballots never give specifics as to how or why the were spoiled - it could just be someone filling it in wrong or someone scrawling WANKERS over the entire paper. Plus there are...

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    I'm not sure banana republic is quite fair - maybe mango? Everyone knew it was going to be Boris but after May won by default last time it had to have the look of a choice. But there is that feeling of "you can vote, as long as you vote the way we want you to".

    I think it was more to do with his time here in the academy. Young lad getting loads of praise and hype and let it go to his head. I think probably getting released helped him sort himself out a bit.

    It's definitely an option, but by the sounds of it Kastaneer won't be able to be relied upon to track back and I don't know about Jobello. I do think the strikers we've got would all be better suited to a partnership rather than as a lone wolf, but MR really seems to like the 4-2-3-1 system and...

    I ummed and ahhed over who to play as the striker - all of them have a case. In the end I went with Hiwula purely because he was top scorer last season but accept he may not work out as a lone front man and may need revising. I think with the attacking three we've got we should be looking...

    I'd have Westbrooke as closer to Bayliss (and looks almost identical too)

    Biamou is currently left out partly due to injury - but I have him fighting Bakayoko. Similarly Chaplin should be pushing Hiwula. As for Jones, again he's injured for a while and it really depends on how the two new wingers do. I think Jones can be a bit hit and miss and I'm not going to pay...

    I think next on the priorities list should be getting Hyam on a longer contract

    At the moment I think it'll be (assuming we're keeping the formation of last year and Willis leaves - if not he's in ahead of McFadzean) First XI ---------------------Marosi Dabo------Hyam---------McFadzean-------Mason -------------Kelly----------Shipley...

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    Agree entirely - there's need to be an option of a 'protest' vote on the ballots.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    So we're down to Boris, Gove and Hunt......it's like being asked if you'd prefer a kick in the bollocks or a punch in the head. We've finished scraping the barrel, have gone through the bottom of it and are now seeing how deep beneath it we can go

    Confirmed Ins and Outs 2019/2020 Summer

    I've got the total in as 499? I think an average score as well would be a good indicator of summer business rather than just totals. At the moment it's 62.37 in, 62.00 out (I've not included those without a score)
