People talk about our woeful defence (rightly), but what have we created at the other end? Again.

Can't believe he didn't already have a yellow.

I’d never use that argument again after some of our recent signings.

What the fuck has he done to ever play for any of those teams?

From when I was trying to decide on a topic for my master's dissertation. Me: Are there any studies that explicitly look at explicit pronunciation training delivered by video? Ideally in the area of self-directed learning? ChatGPT (you don't need to read it all): Me: Are they real studies or...

Not great to bring this thread back up, but just to catch everyone up... A girl alleged that she was being groomed by an Asian gang in Barrow. Facebook groups were started, protests emerged outside the police station and local newspaper who'd been accused of covering it up. But they knew...

It's not even inverted full backs these days. For a lot of the last two seasons, it's basically been four centre backs, with Walker not inverting (because he's shit at it) and not really going forward either, and Ake doing the same on the other side. Gvardiol has got forward a bit more, but he's...

If he wasn't such a prick, Cancelo would be perfect. Or there is another fantastic crosser from the right side who's out of contract in the summer... Yes, I'll go and wash my mouth out before I even say it. ETA: to call Cancelo a prick.

'Buy a player that can create loads of chances for me.' 'Oh yeah, we hadn't thought of that.'

The fact that they have to ask permission to raise the prices in the first place is an admission that water isn't something that can be run as a private business. Private businesses don't have to ask permission to choose how much to charge for their product, because people are free to choose or...

It seems self-evident to me that there should be certain national assets and infrastructure that cannot legally be sold off, with water being the most obvious example. People bang on about things like banning Tiktok or Huawei because it might allow the Chinese government to have undue influence...

That would be a great first. The first ever winner to have a personality.

Yep, rags and dippers more than any other fans, crawl out from under a rock every time they do well, then disappear without a trace the rest of the time.

I'm not sure, but I'd assume that women are healthier than men on average. They certainly live longer, which means they cost more in retirement even before you take into account differences in retirement age. But then they get screwed over when they're actually working, so in theory, it evens...

Yep. Unfortunately, in a world of SEO optimization, so much of Google's results are absolute shite. Putting 'Reddit' after your search often gets a few threads that are far more informative than the AI-generated listacles that dominate the search results these days.

Ok, I'll bite. Ignoring the fact that he's a twat, he's an extremely limited player. He's quick and has a decent long-range shot on him, so he did quite well under a counter-attacking manager once upon a time, coincidentally in the one season where his contract was up for renewal so he had to...

Literally always been the case. Farage and his cronies (even in UKIP times) have always been quietly in favour of asset-stripping the NHS and selling it off to American-style private health providers and insurers (if not actually American). It's not really a secret. Their last manifesto had the...

I'm not sure I agree. I kind of like the fact that we have this little unofficial way of protesting and showing your displeasure that is a bit inconvenient and embarrassing rather than actually dangerous. Obviously people shouldn't really do it, but let's be honest, calling it assault is a bit...

Yet another example of everyone saying we need more depth, but the club knowing better.

Absolutely, but you'd think that 'taking our waters back' would be an opportunity to build a successful fishing industry by taking over some of the quotas that were previously given to other EU vessels (which of course assumes that our boats weren't also fishing in French/Spanish/Irish/Danish...
