    Newcastle United (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    In real life the last defender can be level with attacker. In real life a piece of string can be used when building a brick wall to ensure that it is level. In Disneyland walls do not exist.

    Match of the Day

    It's tragic that a football highlights programme does not show football highlights. Instead we have to listen to people with poor diction talking nonsense.

    United Thread | 2025/26

    Five live discussion of the wrong decision to award a corner v Forest from which United scored. Andros Townsend thinks it was a corner because the part of the ball that was touching the grass was over the line. That's how goal line technology works he thinks. Rory Smith reckons it was "morally a...

    I did not say you were 90. Your rephrased statement is more accurate. Thanks.

    Nope. Not asking anything. Just stating mathematical facts.

    Pensions

    Sounds eerily like my situation. I doubt there will be any significant changes to tax free pension in budget. I'll probably spend cash isa and savings before DC drawdown too.

    Pensions

    I'm a pedant. But it annoys me, especially if a 90 year woman for example claims to have worked "all their life". Unless you started work at birth and never retired, you did not work all you life. A 90 year woman probably started work at 15 and retired at 60. So that is HALF of their life.

    No. 3. Beware of the pension recycling rules.

    Crumpsall Synagogue Attack - two people confirmed dead, one inadvertently shot by police along with the suspect

    No. But one terrorist not disguised does not preclude others who were disguised. Cannot assume.

    Just seen it. It was grim. Not news. Not educational. Not even entertaining. Quite sad really how much dross the BBC pumps out now.

    What has the UK become under the far right influence?

    The Rise of the Far Right

    I think that if all the 'foreigners' were somehow thrown out of the country tomorrow then the majority of people protesting would see a massive change to their lives. There would be fewer GPs, teachers and nurses. There'd be longer NHS waiting lists, larger class sizes and reduced services.....

    Pension Pot

    Bollocks to that. I've probably averaged 20% overtime over the last 40 years. I reckon that entitles me to retire 8 years earlier.

    Running thread

    Was a 5k, a 10k and a half marathon during a covid lockdown when no races were on. I did all 3. Quite a tonic at the time actually.
