    It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

    The fee you pay isn't necessarily indicative of the quality of player you get. City have spent fortunes on crap, and has some absolute bargains as well. Should we do away with our £30m squad player keeper and get a top class £70m one like Chelsea's?

    It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

    Has anyone watched Stones in the last year? He's not at the required level.

    1894 Group Banner

    David Squires has referenced the banner in his latest cartoon: https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2020/jun/23/david-squires-on-the-premier-league-return-plane-banners-and-all?CMP=share_btn_tw

    1894 Group Banner

    The purpose of a banner isn't to make you read every detail. It needs to be succinct and punchy to quickly carry a simple message.

    George Floyd murder | Clashes between US police and protestors

    Can you provide any evidence of the Black Panther movement being racist? I've read some material on COINTELPRO this week that's really opened my eyes to the systematic tide that black rights activists have had to fight against for decades.

    Board games

    Carcassonne works well with 2, as does Pandemic which is cooperative, but maybe a little inappropriate for the times! If you like Harry Potter then the Hogwarts Battle games might be worth a try.

    Perfectly cast roles in films

    Quite a few in the Harry Potter films - Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane, Helena Bonham Carter, etc.

    COVID-19 — Coronavirus

    He's just been on 5 Live for literally a minute, having his moan at the government and going off site before anyone can question his view point, and why it's different to that of the government's medical advisers.

    General Election - December 12th, 2019

    Or we can leave them in place if we agree with them (as I'm sure we'll be the case for many). Leaving gives us the power of choice though.

    Keir Starmer

    Spot on. I don't think the core Labour vote mind posh people; nowadays many will have been to university and met people from many different backgrounds. What people don't like is the feeling of being spoken down to - the attitude of vote for us as we know what's best for you. Whilst the likes...

    General Election - December 12th, 2019

    As someone who generally leans towards the conservative side of government spending, I actually quite like this Labour policy. Broadband has become as important as other utilities and centralising it should improve connections in rural areas, that just don't make financial sense for private...

    General Election - December 12th, 2019

    I have absolutely no idea who to vote for. All of the parties have huge negatives for me. Another election where I'll have to pick the least worst option, but the hardest I've had to decide who that is.

    #47 | Phil Foden - 2019/20 Performances

    Were any of them in the England squad at this stage of their careers though. There's no need to rush Foden at all, but it's silly to think England should take the risk on him when City seemingly won't yet. Both will come with time.

    "The Athletic" launches in the UK | About to be bought by NYT for $550m (p 32)

    The Athletic positions itself as an antithesis to all of that tabloid style reporting you allude to. I can't remember any articles of the style that you mention, that diminish a team's achievements through irrelevant and poorly sourced points. I've also noticed the number of proper football...

    "The Athletic" launches in the UK | About to be bought by NYT for $550m (p 32)

    Which article are you referring to? Can't remember them inflating fees or using Euros. I'm enjoying it. There's normally a couple of interesting pieces a day that soak up my commute.

    Manchester Dogs Home,Harpurhey.

    I walked dogs with my wife at the local animal sanctuary when we were renting. Adopted a lovely German Shepherd from there as soon as we bought a house!
