    Things that annoy you

    I'm having the same with working in Turkey. "I'm going home tomorrow" becomes "Yarin eve gidiyorum" or "Tomorrow home going I am"

    Doug King Takeover

    It was only within the last month or so that Robins said Austin is a one man band at the minute and is going into the transfer window with no help. I've seen nothing to suggest they've replaced Stuart Benthom

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Got a 3 month trial of Apple TV and Slow Horses is the first thing I watched, agree with everything said here. Gary Oldman steals it but all the characters are well played and the storyline is great

    Doug King Takeover

    I'm not too fussed that there wasn't much of note in that. Like when he first appeared he comes across well and level-headed and doesn't want to go down the route of throwing money at it for the sake of it. Would rather that than a Derby/Sheff Weds etc situation. I'd also be happy, as boring...

    Waghorn to hudds

    I wonder if we've made them pick up any of his wages, or whether Robins is just happy for him not to be around

    Sadly my optimism about the takeover doesn't extend to this game. Can see us losing by a couple so I'll go 3-1. Will probably go 3 in the midfield. Wilson BNC Rose Doyle Bidwell JWE Hamer Sheaf Allen Palmer Vik

    Pubs for Saturday

    I went to watch Burnley v Swansea earlier in the season and stopped for a few pints in The Boot Inn before and after the game. Home and away allowed, colours on show and no problems. It's a Wetherspoons so nothing special and can pick up a pint for £2.

    Same as others have said, they're stopping people doing this now. I'm in 16 and against Bristol there were stewards on the stairs between 16/17, going up to people as they arrived and checking. Few STH looked bewildered

    Burnley away 14th Jan

    Sadly I don't get that much of a say, travelling is part of the job. With a multi-million pound project nearing deadline it's all hands on deck and I don't think "but I'll miss Burnley away" would quite wash 😂 hopefully I'm only away for a couple of weeks this time anyway

    Burnley away 14th Jan

    Bought a ticket for this because it's fairly local and the last game I could make before another stint working abroad. Ticket fell through the letterbox and within an hour my boss told me my flight out is now 14th Jan instead of 16th 😑 Add it to being too ill to make Sheff Utd and I've...

    Asteroid Launcher

    Bit of (admittedly morbid) fun/stress relief to combat the post-Christmas/New Year blues. Choose your location, asteroid diameter, speed etc and wreak havoc. I've found it quite cathartic taking out work locations https://neal.fun/asteroid-launcher/

    The National League

    The one thing that may help is that it looks like it will be a simple majority needed (not like the Premier League needing 14/20) so a 37-35 vote in favour would do. 24 Championship clubs and 6 in L1 who will feel they're too big to go down again (Sheff W, Derby, Bolton, Ipswich, Portsmouth...

    The National League

    I like catching a National League game when I can, decent standard considering it's the 5th tier. Agree with @Frostie , National League is stronger than it's ever been and isn't far off being League 3 at this point. Even the 3 semi-pro teams are holding their own. From what I've read RIck Parry...

    He also discussed, in the very first chapter, how purists almost feel that a goal from a long throw-in (citing Stoke/Delap as the example) isn't as deserved even though they're worth just as much as any other goal. I'd absolutely take it as an addition to the way we play, rather than the...

    Match Thread Wrexham FA Cup match

    We're at the stage now where the worst result would probably be a draw, replays have been brought back up to the 4th round this season and the last thing we need is another game in January. Looking at the fixtures it would probably be the midweek between Burnley and Norwich as well, with the 4th...
