    5!

    If you ask me how many points we'll get this season, I'd be inclined to say 5! That is all.

    AFL

    Last night's semi final between Carlton and Melbourne was something else. Played in front of a rapturous crowd of over 96 thousand, Carlton scored a goal in the last minute and held on to win. The previous week, Carlton beat Sydney in front of 92 thousand fans. AFL is becoming my preference...

    Hi Jeff, Not sure if it coincided with the change of name from Twitter to X, but any post that has an X post embedded says this tweet is not available. If I click on it, the X post opens fine. Maybe a plugin needs updating? Cheers, Joe_Fox

    Sub thing

    So there's this sub thing that takes rich folk down to the bottom of the ocean to look at stuff. Apparently, it's a bit dodgy, but the rich folk either don't care, don't do their due diligence, or do both, most likely to live by the foolhardy and macho mantle of fortune favouring the "brave"...

    Pre Match Leicester v West Ham

    So here we are. It's a must win. Can we do it? One thing that concerns me (and there are many) is the presence of an Everton legend in the opposition dugout. Will Moyes try and do his old charges a favour, or will he protect his players in preparation for their biggest game in a long long...

    Faded seats and fading dreams

    So, finally, it seems the hammer has been readied and is set to drop on to the final nail in our Premier League coffin. The infinitesimally small shred of hope we have is about to be firmly stamped upon by a team funded by executioners. I feel we are all at various stages of grief but the...

    TikTok

    What's the deal with this piece of shit? Why is it so popular? I've heard that (at least) two very different algorithms are used to serve up very different types of content. In China, the videos are generally positive, helpful and fulfilling whereas in the west you'll get fights, pranks and...

    Next permanent manager

    Ok, who's your pick? Robins maybe if Cov lose the play-off final? Could we tempt Carrick? I just hope we don't get some old duffer. The trouble I have is that we aren't an attractive proposition at the moment. Who wants to board a ship full of rats and scurvy?

    Swearing

    OK, hands up, who's going to be swearing during the coronation of Charlie? Will you be swearing in style a) "I swear that I will pay true allegiance to Your Majesty, and to your heirs and successors according to law. So help me God." .... or style b) "**** this load of ****ing bollocks!" (or...

    Was/Were Has/Here

    Is it just me or is the use of was/has to describe a collective (e.g. a team, a band) becoming more and more commonplace in the English (British English) speaking media. (On an aside, British English to me sounds stupid - just call it English and all other derivations what they are e.g. American...

    Pre Match Manchester United vs Leicester City

    As I mentioned in the Spurs pre-match thread, before the Villa game, I was thinking that any points from Spurs, Man U and Arsenal would be a bonus. Now I'm kind of expecting at least one, and maybe, who knows.... two, three, four, maybe even five, six, perhaps even seven, and dare I say nine...

    Pre Match Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur

    So, no Romero for Spurs, plus Kane just overtook Grievsie so may relax a bit and not score his usual brace against us. Perhaps a draw? Looking further forward, it is also helpful that Casemiro is a maniac and will be suspended for the match against us. Furthermore, Arsenal may have hit their...

    Time wasters (game)

    I listen to the Christian O'Connell Show here most mornings and one of the features is something known as the "At work time waster". Basically it's a fusing game based on a topical subject. For example, Cafe songs. An entry for this would be "Money for Muffin". When I remember to, I'll post...

    Next three games

    Ok, to play devil's advocate a bit here, the next three games are Forest and Palace at home and Bournemouth away. Let's say we don't sack Rodgers and go on to win them all. That takes Rodgers to ten games, and we'll have ten points. If, and yes I know, it's a sizable if, but if that happens, do...

    Quick competition. Predict the opening and closing fixtures. Don't worry about home and away. I'll go Brighton first up, and Arsenal last.

    Premier League 2022/23

    Firstly, I'd like to welcome Fulham, Bournemouth and in particular, Forest back to the Premier League. It will be nice to have a couple of matches with local rivals again. I think all three have a reasonable chance of staying up. I feel the opening ten games of our season will be critical...

    Never mind all this football discussion, this is more important. If you had to choose between only bacon (any type) or only sausage (any type) for ever more, which would you choose? Keen to see the results.
