Michael Golding. How bad must you be that you can't get a run out in this team?

Meanwhile things appear to be heating up between India and Pakistan Pakistan and India exchange fire as UN calls for ‘maximum restraint’ | India | The Guardian I'm more fearful about this situation than any other.

David Icke AND Roy Cropper! Great fan base

What a privilege to have lived at such a time...

How many -four?

Tiring day yesterday, so I had a sleep-in today until 7am. Feel great now!

Oil prices are slumping, and it looks as though interest rates will decline too. Trump's real plan?

It's not great, but we're not looking at a great depth to draw upon. No good saying you don't think the team isn't good enough, and then play Ayew, Bobby or Skipp. We need some good signings, and that isn't Ruud's fault.

We should make overtures to China, and let their cheap EVs enter the country. Of course in exchange we'd need to make sure they put pressure on Russia to stop their aggression (and China may not want to do that). The existing auto industry here is already doomed in a tariff war, so time to think radically.

We need to make an international signing, then miss registering him by a few seconds. Fans of other clubs will never sing that!

Whenever a supporter of another club knocks us by saying we shouldn’t have sacked Cooper, the obvious answer should be “which Premier League club will now take a chance on hiring him?” I don’t think he was terribly bad as manager, but his influence on the transfer dealings was very harmful.

not too sure why fans of a Turkish club would want such a strong Spanish theme? Sephardic Jews?

Jury needs to be out for a few seasons more before we can make that comparison. I agree that Pep has had the benefit of always being in charge of a mega-club that can make big signings at regular intervals. Otoh there are plenty of managers who would still flop given those advantages. So it's totally off-beam to use the Fraudiola charge; Pep's a top class manager. It's just that I feel there are better contenders for the GOAT tag, starting with Cloughie and SirAlex.

Absolutely. Bad enough being beaten soundly week in and week out. But having to see the Florists gloat about their season is unbearable. Good to see they got beat by the Geordies. Icing on the cake - the fans on newcastle online refer to Forest fans as the "scabs" (not that our union history in the 80s bears much close examination).

Mads and Bilal probably will. Fats, if he can recover top fitness. In the right team and coached well, maybe Soumare (I know, I know). Afraid Ricky is gone now.

Hard to blame a player for just not being good enough. And if they really are lacking effort then it's down to whoever trusts and selects them.

Potter one of worst two managers in the league? You may be right, struggling at the moment to think of a worse one. Although it may just be that Man U have a contender..

The basic principle of "blame the other" lies at the bottom of it. Already they are making noises about how women not having enough babies is damaging "western values". Women are the next big target.

Yep. Some of us remember Jock Wallace being prepared to use the youngsters like Peake, Buchanan, Lineker...didn't always work out, but it meant the established players couldn't rest on their laurels.

Agree. He also had to cope with the injuries to Mads, Wilf and Fatawu, so points comparisons with Cooper aren't valid.

Take a photocopy of passport and carry with you (or just take a photo on the smart phone), and leave the passport itself in the safe. Of all the things to worry about on holiday, this must come way down the list.

Bless Akolbire - anyone seen him in action?

Creating our goal showed his talent. I'm a bit concerned that if anything he tries too hard at times and makes reckless challenges. He won't be much use to the side if he gets sent off, and the management will somehow need to cool him down whilst keeping his desire to win/

BeK is something else.
