    Went to see Project Hail Mary last night. As a big fan of the book was half expecting them to mess it up as is often the case with book adaptions. Happy to report they couldn't have done a better job. Definitely worth seeing in the cinema. Have seen people posting that the 70mm IMAX version...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The messaging was completely wrong from the start. The biggest benefit is by having a high capacity route between major cities you relieve the demands on the current infrastructure which can then run more, and less crowded, regional services. But from day one the messaging was 'get to London a...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This story is a bit mental. As much for the way it happened as the content. A story was seeded in the Times at the weekend headlined 'HS2's latest challenge? Cutting the speed of its trains to save money'. The sub headline suggests a linear relationship between speed and cost with every 1mph...

    When did it begin for you?

    1986 I started going to games. In my first season we were up the top end of the league, won the FA Cup and the Youth Cup. All the talk from those in charge was how we were going to push on from there and challenge for more honours. Didn't quite work out like that. Looking back its crazy to...

    Sell outs

    Are they random tickets or in a certain place? Wonder if we've still seats that can't be opened up with the SAG approving it.

    The First Team That Started The Journey

    Does anyone know who the 'we'll be back' chap is and if he's still around? Need to see him at a game with an updated sign if he is!

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Think I've mentioned before there's a chap bang in the middle of prime redneck territory who has a very similar gmail address to mine and clearly can't get his own right so I get a lot of his emails, including invites to Klan events! I used to get a steady stream of properly out there MAGA...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    One of the problems is most countries do, or at least should make some attempt to appear to have, due process and things like going to war are a major decision that can't just be made on a whim. With how often he changes his mind he's created a situation where it's near impossible for other...

    To the 116 - Thank you

    Couple of names in there I barely remember and some I'd rather forget! Its been horrific at times and there were points where I genuinely wondered if we'd have a club at all for much longer but every single person there has played there part. The last few years have been so bad even now I'm...

    Sell outs

    Don't think the segregation banners would make any difference because there's actual barriers as well so additional seats would be in the away end. Not sure why we have the banners by the dugout. Pretty sure there's been a time when they weren't there at all. There's stairs between those seats...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Trump has put out a list of demands Iran has to meet to end the war: No missile program for 5 years. Zero uranium enrichment. Decommissioning of nuclear reactors. Arms control treaties with regional countries. No financing for regional proxies. Strict outside observation protocols around...

    The same applies to the writing team as well. Would have been easy to go to the same old names but they've been out there and scooped up the fresh young talent. So important as there's a dire lack of opportunity. Not sure why given the successfully history of sketch comedy in this country but...

    Its a fun show and such a simple concept. Enjoyed the first episode of the UK version of SNL last night. As always with sketch comedy a mixed bag but some really good stuff in there. Particularly enjoyed Weekend Update.

    I've been a supporter long enough to be worried until the maths says its done but even I'm starting to think we might have a chance :ROFLMAO:

    Sell outs

    I think the cap is a bit misleading. It's just a marketing thing. When sales have slowed pretty much to a halt we get a made up cap to encourage a few more sales. If we go up next season may be different as we've seen PL clubs actively discourage season tickets as they can make more selling to...

    He won’t. It gets worse, media reports now that they didn’t sack him because it would cost too much. Who gave him a new contract? The only other issue they seem to have come up with after a shambolic tour is how he handled the media. They’ve told him to give more interviews.
