    Championship thread | 2025/26

    My club are in trouble. Only the bottom 5 clubs have scored fewer goals & after playing only 14 games so far, our form over the last 10 games puts in the bottom three. I watched last nights match in despair, we were abject, clueless & had zero quality. We really are stinking up the championship...

    Referees' Performances | 2025/26

    I would say that he got most calls right when he actually made a decision. It’s the amount of times he let things go/didn’t make a decision where he manages to influence games. Like the amount of times he didn’t give free kicks when City players were getting kicked or held or the amount of...

    Referees' Performances | 2025/26

    The ref was very poor today, particularly in the first half. He allowed grabbing & holding by the Bornemouth players, which was supposed to have been stopped this season? I thought the City keeper made a right mess of trying to punch the ball for the Bornemouth goal, but with the holding...

    Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    I agree, I thought the villa keeper was taking a long time with ball in hand & goal kicks, so started timing him on my phone like a proper sad bastard. He’s was regularly over 8 seconds with ball in hands & some of his goal kicks were 35/36/37 seconds. They took there time with throw ins too...

    Very sad to hear Diane Keaton has died. One of my favourites. Loved her in Annie Hall, Play it again Sam, Sleeper and Love & Death.

    Little Bill Daggett: You'd be William Munny out of Missouri. Killer of women and children. Will Munny: That's right. I've killed women and children. I've killed just about everything that walks or crawled at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you did to Ned...

    Notable movie quotes

    A few from Blazing Saddles. Taggart: What do you want me to do, sir? Lamarr: I want you to round up every vicious criminal and gunslinger in the west. Take this down. [Taggart looks for a pen and paper while Hedley talks] Hedley Lamarr: I want rustlers, cut throats, murderers, bounty hunters...

    The "post something that made you smile" thread

    I did something similar many years ago at a good mates wedding. Whilst he and his bride were not particularly religious, it was a full on traditional Indian wedding and he told me he would be wearing a turban. He also confirmed we would be the only non Indians at the wedding ceremony, although a...

    Just about to finish ‘A Load Of Old Balls’ by James Hardin and Anna Ptaszynski. It’s a trivia type history of sport, with lots of interesting and witty stories behind each particular incident. It’s an easy read and pretty entertaining.

    The NHS...2025.

    There are a lot of people turning up at A&E, when it’s neither an accident or an emergency & it wastes a lot of time & resources. I live with a cardio problem, which is prone to random flare ups. I have been advised by the various cardiologists I have been treated by, to go to A&E when I get a...

    United Thread | 2025/26

    Against Napoli, the var and commentators were looking to see if the last defender got a touch on the ball before taking out Haaland as a reason not to award a red card. Chelsea keeper clearly gets the ball before taking out the rag, but no debate, it’s a straight red. Other than the obvious red...
