Perhaps this is our cunning plan?

OK, we are still second in the table, though the last eight or nine games have, mostly, been disappointing. There may be all sorts of reasons, injuries, coupled with a couple of players dropping a bit in form and maybe a bit of discontent from one or two players. The essential problem is that...

Watching the last few games it has felt as though Cancelo was back with us.

It does seem that the prostate cancers that appear in younger men have more chance of being more aggressive than those that first show in older men. So testing earlier. particularly in those men with family histories of cancer makes a lot of sense.

Note Newcastle player after foul given against him makes gentler pass toward Arsenal player who decides to leave it and complains that Newcastle player has kicked the ball away. Referee falls for it.

I have an MG ZS EV long range 273 miles. It is an indulgence as I probably won’t be driving for too many more years. It is good to drive, though my wife drives it mostly. The recommendation is to charge to 80% for everyday use for better battery life. So normally charge to about 220 miles...

13 fouls to 2!

George Orwell, Animal Farm “The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which." When the electoral system gives any political party a massive majority, albeit on significantly a minority of the...

Anchovy paste, now there’s another story in the life of a food microscopist. Company sent a sample of anchovy paste that had white flecks in it. Quick look showed crystals which dissolved in both acid and alkali (should have given me an idea of what kind of material it was but I didn’t twig)...

35+ years ago, I did some advisory work with McDonalds. At that time they were pretty fanatical on quality and consistency. They had traceability on their raw materials that was on a par with M&S and quite precise and comprehensive operating procedures. Indeed I later used some of their HACCP...

Perhaps he knows what might be revealed if City face a significant penalty.. He will know where the skeletons in Arsenal’s cupboards are.

The number of times Foden got into positions like that for England and the ball never came - criminal.

Thank you for a well thought out post. There is no doubt that the result favours City rather than the PL. Time will tell the significance of the panel’s verdict. To continue your cancer analogy if the cancer only affects one testicle then whilst that is a short term problem, in the long term...

I refer you to the bolt in the sausage! As a footnote to that, when we returned back from that case a colleague asked “Did you ask to see his Equity card?”

At most only two people know whether that should have been a penalty or not and the rest of us, including the match officials can only guess. I’d guess not but who knows.

Sorry to hear of your brother’s experience, but thank you for posting his story to encourage others.

Probably thought it was the Subbuteo competition.

On a positive note, Newcastle’s first shot on target wasn’t a goal.

Eccles will be beside herself!
