    World Cup and Euros every other year?

    I read one of the press releases regarding the idea, which cites that “younger people want more intensity and entertainment” which is the main driver behind this. It compared the idea to 24hr news and social media. Who’d have guessed that at the age of 29 I’d be so out of touch with the ‘young...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    In fairness (I seem to say that a lot nowadays) Three have also announced that they’re scrapping the free roaming in non-EU countries as well. Feels more like a business decision than politically-led. In saying that, though, it does seem that the consumer is getting a worse and worse deal as...

    Things that annoy you

    When you’re out for a meal and the food’s coming out, but the entire table is chatting and not listening to what food there is. Cue waiters stood around awkwardly waiting for people to shut up. It’s literally a minute, button up and get your food.

    England v Andorra

    I don’t think it will be the end. Southgate can be quite stubborn about these things - Trippier is still in at LB, after all. Completely unnecessary in a game like this.

    Running

    I’ve been through exactly this fairly recently (hadn’t run at all until last April) and my advice would be just to take your time and set small incremental goals. Literally, my first goal was to be able to run round my block (just shy of a mile in distance) without stopping. Took me about 2...

    Was talk of him being on about £50k at Bordeaux.

    International Break - benefit to us?

    Most annoying bit is that England don’t play on the Saturday. I can’t be arsed with a Sunday 5pm kick off.

    Data taken from an app called FotMob and it doesn’t quite tally to 9.8 xG but still gives a decent reflection: Gyokeres - 3.09 (2) O’Hare - 1.24 McFadzean - 1.15 (1) Waghorn - 0.70 Godden - 0.43 (1) Maatsen - 0.43 Sheaf - 0.27 Hamer - 0.25 Allen - 0.21 (1) Hyam - 0.11 Dabo - 0.09 Clarke-Salter...

    You couldn’t make it up!!

    When I was last signing on (around 10 years ago) there was a requirement for you to apply for 3 jobs a week in order to qualify for JSA. Applied for 35 in my first week, got one of them, and the rest is history. Don’t know about more recent developments but it was a requirement to go down to...

    You are correct, but the EFL were surveying on this very subject 3-4 months ago. If there’s no prospect of the 3pm blackout changing then it was a waste of research. I’m merely asking the question.

    Appreciate it’s not in the club’s direct remit, but has there been any discussion with the EFL regarding streaming of games in the future? There was a lot of research seemingly commissioned last season and then everything has reverted to normal.

    Things that annoy you

    With the amount of natural disasters they have, it amazes me that they do very little (in comparison to what they could be doing) about climate change.

    Premier League thread

    Their defensive options are an absolute shitshow. I get the signing of White, think he’s ok, but they need a leader in there. As much as he’s not the best defender, I’d have looked to bring Mings in. At least he’s vocal, which is something they’re sorely lacking.
