Best player according to FlashScores

The run he had that took Forest from bottom of the championship, to battling for automatic promotion was genuinely sensational, and they were playing some good stuff in that period. Clearly they had little to lose and got an incredible amount of momentum. But Billy Davies did that with Derby too.

You’re assuming that the people making those decisions aren’t complete idiots

Albert Adomah nailed on for a goal

I do keto for a week or two every few months. I find it helps me a lot but it’s obviously impossible to do permanently. The ultra processed food is the main one though, get meat from the butcher, veg from the market and try to eat wholewheat grains. Anything with sugar that isn’t fruit or veg is generally terrible for you.

Its confidence end of. Its the belief in what your doing and having the confidence the communicate that vision to your team to help them buy into it. Lord Nige and O’Neill were charismatic, but they had an understanding of what they were doing and were always competent at developing their squad around their vision.

I think he’d actually be quite handy with this group of players and at least he has a clear identity even if he is a massive weapon. Our squad is a lot better than Southamptons.

Decent ending on the cards in Galle. New Zealand need 78 more with 3 wickets in hand. Would be another good win for the Lankans. As for England, what do they expect when these players are playing 16.4 over cricket during the 50 over season ?

Surely Wilder will kill Joshua based on last night evidence? Very limited boxer but insanely powerful hook.

Tyson Fury will fight him now

Fair, I know there’s been hype since the Usyk losses, almost like a second wind. No shame in losing to Usyk, the Ruiz fight was wild, but this seemed like a unanimous drubbing. He should retire.

Was that expected? Haven’t really followed the build up and seems pretty stunning?

Some coaches ‘have it’, others don’t. I guess it’s a sense of confidence in their own ability and the way they conduct themselves. Enzo had it, Brendan had it (before he lost the plot), Nigel had it, Claudio etc. Watching the Tigers today, their new coach Cheika has it, Cooper doesn’t have it, and he isn’t finding it either. Get it done now as well only be coming back to this conversation week after week.

We were always capable of a good result under Puel. It’s completely incomparable.

Not the first time he’s fallen out with a manager though. Probably says a lot about him

We need more rest days, reminds me of the glory days of the 50’s

You’d probably go back and try and work out how the hell he ended up in a position that he gets off to this stuff

Rebuild is an interesting thought in this case. I’d like to think we’ll never hear anything of him again for both positive and negative reasons. I get you, it’s certainly not an easy topic to debate and it’s also subjective. I don’t have kids so it probably triggers me a bit less? I don’t think that punishment for crimes should be abolished, I think a majority of cases that people could and should be rehabilitated but politically and as a society, we don’t seem ready to invest to take that step. When people have inflicted a horrific amount of suffering and harm on others, it is politically and morally better to keep them out of society, but where the cut off is there will differ to different people. Some people would lock a heroin addicted burglar up for life whereas others would give murderers a second chance.

One of the reasons why she’s not funny is sadly because the punchline is too slow (not her fault obviously), so you’ve already worked it out 20 seconds before she says it.

Yeah it’s teetering on paranoia and conspiracy.

He’ll be in the prem with West Brom next season while we’re heading to league one with a 15 point deduction.

Just going back to the Huw Edwards stuff, I don’t really see the point in jailing him. I think his sentence is reflective of the crime that he’s committed. If he had gone out and harmed a person, if he had created those images himself, if he had distributed them himself then fair enough, I would want a stronger punishment. However in this case you really have to dig deep and suggest what would justice actually be? Is Edwards a danger to children? I trust the judge in this case. I saw a video of Jim Davidson complaining about the sentence and it just struck me as completely mental, a bit like when the paedophile hunters eventually get turned out as paedophiles themselves. It’s a moral outrage thing. If we want a ‘throw away the key’ type of society then life will be miserable and we will suffer. If we want people to better themselves, to engage in psychological support and sort their mess out then society has to invest in them (not specifically Edwards, I find his litany of excuses in his defence counsel pretty pathetic and insulting tbh). My partner’s family had an interesting similar incident. They’re very much pro death penalty, throw away the key types. Then a couple of years ago, a family friend’s son was charged with rape and eventually convicted (so the evidence was clear), so when he I drunkenly suggested, does that mean that he should be killed by the state, they obviously went on the defensive. The point being acting on emotion in these cases is obviously a very bad thing.

People say daddy issues aren’t a thing, but Cooper’s dad was a PL ref and he hates referees. Makes you think really.

Headingley 81 on the cards here.

Anyone that concedes 5 goals to Celtic should be automatically eliminated. Highland league standard.
