  1. Obviously money is tight but surely it's worth keeping him and giving him some game time in the PL. Others will be more informed but I thought he'd done reasonably well for us, surely we can get some team to take a chance on him as a "PL Squad player" given he probably isn't costing us much at the moment. Maybe it's not worth waiting an extra year for perhaps a few extra million but it seems short sighted to me to let him go for five now.
  2. Salt deposits are when moisture is coming to the surface of the wall and evaporating, not moisture being absorbed by the wall, so if your wall is drying out from significant damp you would expect to see some deposits. I haven't done much with DPC injection but I don't think it's an exact process. Given how wet the weather has been recently, it could be small weakness in the DPC that has then allowed moisture to continue to rise. Its more likely to be rising than to be a leak from higher up unless there are marks at a higher level somewhere. The suggestion of a gravel drain to the perimeter would be helpful if you can accommodate it externally, even temporarily to help it dry out before some warmer and dryer weather. If the ground level is above your floor level externally in this location that would certainly explain the moisture in the wall. It's more likely to be lime plaster at present and I would avoid replacing this with anything that claims to be moisture or whatever resistant - in that case you will just trap moisture in the masonry and it will have a more detrimental effect on the wall over the longer term. I'd get in touch with the company and see what they think also - the least they can do for free is re-visit and review. Keep us posted.
  3. Unlikely.
  4. Zak Whitbrew - American wheat beer. It's not great but it's better than it looks.
  5. Hossein Kaeibir - Invisible and tasteless lager
  6. "AND IT'S LIVE!!"
  7. I had no idea it was that extreme, shows how much of a joke these Tories are with their "tough on immigration" bollux.
  8. Wayne's Not a Brown Ale. Very pale, only available in Constituencies that have voted UKIP in the past.
  9. Levi's Porter - only served in Schooners.
  10. Completely agree. I've heard very few mentions in the media of how bad it was that we got relegated - rather what seems to get mentioned is that we have PL quality players. That said, I think Enzo has been taken for granted in how easily he has got things gelling and had us winning games when we've played badly. It could easily have been a slow start which inevitably would've ratcheted up the pressure on Enzo and the players. The crazy stat thread and the what do we do next season thread being very active in November is frankly nuts really when you think about it. Plenty of us had a lot of concern before the season and I think if we'd kept Dean Smith or got a championship journeyman the threads above would be completely dead.
  11. I went to Andy's Man Club on Monday night. https://andysmanclub.co.uk/ I'd thought about going before and sacked it off a couple times but I'm very glad I went. I found it incredibly refreshing to be in a group of men of all ages, taking the time out for themselves and each other, to talk and to listen about what one another have/are going through. There's no pressure to talk if you don't know what to say or how to start, but the space is there if you need it. I will be going back and would highly recommend it to any gents struggling.
  12. What negotiations are we conducting? Can't we just agree personal terms or are we trying to get him this window for a nominal fee?
  13. - Spend less time on my phone - Improve my concentration - Plan more stuff with my friends
  14. 2nd and 3rd goals very good. Defending on both theirs is shocking, no matter who is playing or what our record at set pieces is.
  15. Strange comparison. I regularly see cyclists doing things they shouldn't but if you're close enough to a cyclist that your wing mirror touches them then you are driving like a twat and you're putting their life at risk.
  16. Went last November for a day when I was visiting my sister with my parents. Stunning beaches.
  17. I wish they'd paid me a sliver of that for my architectural services! I'm not world class but I do a good job!
  18. Comparing those sets is like comparing apples and oranges as far as stadiums go, they're levels of complexity and sophistication beyond our gaff.
  19. I didn't realise/forgot that was a thing. I can understand a small loyalty bonus, say 5-10 points, but that much is daft.
  20. I'd love to know how Everton spent 54m on their stadium before they got planning.
  21. Is the bar at Birmingham actually low? Didn't they sack the last bloke when they were 7th? And for Rooney of all people. Money talks but they look like a shambles at the minute.
  22. The other thing with Rodgers is the shite that he came out with in the media last season. He was in damage limitation mode last season because he knew he was in trouble. The shocking mismanagement of the team is one thing which is bad enough as it is, but the lack of contrition and accountability, and the antagonism of the club was in some ways for me more frustrating than us being shit.
  23. According to the eye website, tickets were £20 and there were 100,000 tickets. I imagine that's a good chunk of the cost at least.
  24. Very excited by my Ravens this year. Big game against the dolphins tonight but I think we can do them. I don't want to speak too soon but it feels like we may have overcome the early season issue of not closing. Heard a stat early on in the season that we've blown the most 2 score leads in 4th quarters in the last few seasons by far so it does still make me nervous. Also, I don't think we want to face Flacco in the playoffs. January Joe is cool as ice.
  25. I thought with all the hype around Ten Hag that Man U would start to steady the ship and make them more consistent, if not title contenders. Alas he is just the next manager who has so far failed to stop the rot. They are the prime example that highlights how spending with no strategy or plan is an absolute waste. I get the feeling with Ratcliffe there's a good chance there will be more absurd spending but it won't improve anything. They need a Pearson style clean out and reset imo.
