    I`m possibly in the minority, but I`m not obsessed by them like a lot of our fans, they`re just another team to me. What I`m finding increasingly distasteful, is the way the media and pundits are pushing the tragic death of Jota as the reason for their decline. It was an absolute tragedy, but...

    Me too, Slot will go before Salah. He`s made a very expensive and complete balls up of the transfer window, almost doing what Man U have been doing for the past few years, buying a load of expensive " names " with seemingly no idea where or how to play them. He looks clueless as to how to fix...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    It`s the fawning over an corrupt, autocratic, tango tanned, sociopath that`s sticking in peoples throats. With added bonus of it looking highly like he`s now got FIFA in his pocket.

    It`s a real conundrum for promoted teams : Do you do what Norwich do every time they get promoted, pocket the tv money, sign a load of cheap grafters and hope for the best or do you do what Sunderland do, take the risk and spend big and hopefully survive ( which they 100% will do ) The way to...

    Rab was as much as a social comment as it was a comedy. Brilliant writing and casting, even Wee Burney, the little nonce.

    My missus has a very good mate from around Donegal and having been over there a couple of times, I can categorically say that Father Ted is a documentary ! If anything Father Ted is possibly scaled down in some aspects. Last time I was there, the pissed up local copper, who`d been drinking in...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Even stranger, when you think Everton didn`t have a functioning right back when they signed him - still don`t, they`re probably going to play James Garner there tonight, who`s a midfielder.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Iliman Ndiaye is off to the AFCON, so I`d say it`s highly unlikely that he`ll be let go, as at the moment he`s his understudy. Dwight McNeil is more likely to either be let go as a sale ( think his contracts up or go out as loan. Plus Frank knows McNeil and as much as he`s not a pacy winger...

    Wait until Coventry get promoted and you go to Anfield, it`s not just half and half scarves, you`ll never see so many full kit wankers at any one ground - mum, dad and kids !

    Recommend a book

    Just finished : Across The Sand, the follow on to Hugh Howey`s excellent novel - Sand. Sc-fi at it`s absolute best. If ever there were books that should be made into a film(s), these two books would be perfect. These books would be perfect for the director Denis Villeneuve to do in a...

    Another Western Noir - Killing Faith. This one had a supernatural twist. Dewanda Wise plays a freed slave, who has a white daughter ( explained later ), who can kill any living thing, just by touching it with her bare hands. The townsfolk believe that she is a demon. Guy Pearce plays the...

    She`s properly mad, I know it`s his sister, but I don`t know how he can spend more than five minutes with her. Maybe that`s the whole point of her being on the show ? They go to some great locations though, that one last week in the castle was a real bottle tester, as was the old pub in York.

    The way they seamlessly blended the Asian and Traveller characters into nearly every episode, without resorting to stereotypes or not patronising their cultures and making their characters genuinely funny too, was really clever writing.

    The casting of Neil Ashton, an an unknown actor as Davie McDonagh too ! I always thought there was room for a spin off with his character.

    Think it`s a combination of things : Klopps team with a few minor tweaks. Salah and Vandyke being on the wane. Shoehorning Salah in and playing to a system to suit Salah and not the other players, especially Isaac. The big signing of Wirtz and seemingly no idea how to play him and the player...

    Same here with my eldest lad, that and the Punisher :ROFLMAO: I`m just finishing something off and then I`m going to start with the very first episode and work my way through every episode as a pilgrimage. People who don`t like Stranger Things don`t like life.

    The Apprentice - just dropped on Netflix. Sebastian Stan, is totally convincing as the young Donald Trump, as he falls under the spell of his disgusting lawyer, Roy Cohn, who is played by Jeremy Strong ( of Succession fame ), who is spell binding as the human garbage that is Roy Cohn. I`m not...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Which is why anyone with half a brain will try and get out of Jury service. It`s the exact same for witness expenses too. I`ll use an example. A taxi driver gets assaulted and robbed. For everyday he is in court, as the complainant and chief witness, he has to fill in a load of forms to...
