    Don't see anything wrong with what has been said. Highly doubt its anything that hasn't been said to him before, probably why he's been mouthing off on twitter the last few months about young players being given a chance in the first team. The rules are so wrong here. The system is setup so...

    Think Mowbray makes a good point. Was scoring for fun in the U18s but not so much in the U21s so why would he move straight into the first team. Also says he's been told he'd be likely to get a pre-season with the first team next year and if he impressed would stay in the squad.

    Jimmy Hill permanent memorial at Ricoh

    Is this separate to the existing memorial garden? Hopefully if we should ever move whatever the tribute is will be moved as well as they did when we moved from HR.

    You can't blame the player for taking an offer of more money. That's why the rules need changing. In an ideal world I'd get rid of agents, have all transferred handled by someone like the PFA. Agents aren't thinking about the players best interests or their development, they're thinking of their %.

    The People VS OJ Simpson...

    I'm tempted to download the last couple rather than wait for them to air on BBC2. Interestingly the next series is about hurricane Katrina so will be very different to this series.

    Pretty much. It's all part of the EPPP. That got forced through when the PL teams basically said if FL teams didn't vote for it they would hold back funding.

    But demand doesn't exceed supply. The rules got changed, basically via blackmail, to allow the PL to sweep up a huge number of players for next to nothing. So thats what they do, they sign everyone they can and then charge other clubs to take them on loan. If one of them comes good and is a...

    Walking Dead Season 6

    What a load of crap. The way it was being hyped up and then it was just another run of the mill episode.

    Its getting ridiculous. Players are leaving before they've achieved anything to go to 'bigger' clubs they haven't got a hope of playing for. These clubs are moaning that players aren't getting competitive games - stop signing so many so early! Think we might need to look at a new form of...

    Didn't like it when it first started. Think it was sticking too closely to the UK version. Got into it later though. Have just finished rewatching the whole lot. The pre-titles pranks between Jim and Dwight are genius. https://youtu.be/dNZ_vHqFkdA

    I don't really see why people think it takes the piss out of the disabled. Derek is the 'hero' in the series so if anything it shows him in a great light.

    "Realistic" free transfers or signings only

    The point being Reda's previous injuries were niggles that would see him unable to play a run of consecutive games. When Mowbray came in this changed and he was playing consistently until he suffered a more serious injury that has kept him out for months.

    Feel free to move this but it may be seen more in general chat

    Can't even imagine what it must be like for something like that to happen to a family pet. Horrible thing to happen.

    I loved it but it seemed to be one of those love or hate shows.

    If you could afford to what sporting events around the world would you go to see

    Don't think we'll ever get Mania, the weather isn't reliable enough at this time of year. More chance of SummerSlam. They did speak with Wembley, Old Trafford and Millennium Stadium a couple of years back about holding that here but nothing came of it. Think the less they rely on PPV revenues...

    If you could afford to what sporting events around the world would you go to see

    Been to 3 (so far), 26 in Phoenix, 28 in Miami and 29 in NY/NJ. Would highly recommend it. Depending on where it is and flight costs you can actually do it pretty cheap. There's always cheap hotels if you look around and you'll only be there to sleep so the most basic will do. Sitting at the...

    Walking Dead Season 6

    There's no technical reason it can't be done. Doctor Who Anniversary special was broadcast in 94 countries at the same time and cinemas worldwide as well. Only reason I can think of is they want people to watch live so they have to watch the adverts. If it was on in the middle of the night a...

    I wouldn't hesitate for a second if Turner wanted to sign for us. Can't see him dropping down to L1 though. Don't regard him as injury prone, he got a bad injury that kept him out for an extended period. The injury he got with us wasn't related, just bad luck. As for Reda if we can get him on...
