What were the wolves fans singing all game? Couldn’t mark out a word of it

That’s crazy, never had that. In which case ignore my whole post!

Tom ford ombre leather. Tend to stock up on any oud fragrances when in the Middle East.

Sounds like you’re making a mountain out of a molehill. Tickets are on general sale, put in any random name and just buy a pair of tickets. Seymour butts on my account has got 5 home games under his belt

Defo an unpopular view so not gonna argue lol. But his personality and popularity has clearly transformed his sport in 2024. First year in ages I couldn’t get anywhere near a ticket for ally pally. For that reason I’d say he’s a good bet for sports personality of the year

Yeh that’s what I mean, it’s similarly priced to things like a single gin, a random craft beer, peroni or madri which are other drinks that have gone through the fashion cycle. It used to be nonces drinking ‘a small brew ipa darling’ out of colourful cans, now they’ve moved into Guinness, next it’ll be a random drink from some cesspit in France or Italy. I’d say every stout I’ve had is nicer than Guinness but Guinness isn’t really a stout to me. It’s average and easy drinking, had 4 yday at lunch because it’s so inoffensive

Yeh agreed. I get it’s fashionable to go against trends, hence it’s now v fashionable to insult Guinness. But as the poster above says, it’s an average and reliable draught. That’s it

It’s an average draught pint at an average price point. That sounds about right. Average isn’t an insult. If you’re switching from a spirit/mixer or another average draught to a Guinness, I can’t see how you’re having your pants down.

Yeh I agree, but ofc I would as a millennial who’s not benefitted from the commoditisation of everything. The western capitalist world has created a post war generation of people who live unbelievably luxurious lives off the back of average skills and work ethic. The down side is the raging inequality and ravaged world we’re now seeing

That’s human nature. We split into camps. Also when you have a homogenous product at a stable price point, I’d be interested to hear any other way to do business other than with people you like

Turned up for a charity cash grab football match in Jersey the day after Mahrez's wedding stinking of booze with just a backpack and no boots. Said he could play in trainers before a runner went and got him a new pair from sports direct. Got with a decent looking female that evening too. Legend in my book.

Musk is great at making big bets. No one would have the balls to go in with so much leverage on DJT, if cackling kamala won, he'd have been stuffed, but orangeman won and he now owns a country, with the UK coming next. Also great at marketing, a very tough skills, cannot be understated. In my industry at a certain level the service and price is pretty much the same. So winning new business purely comes down to making people like you, hence we are tasked with going out drinking regularly.

It would take extinction first though, before settling back down to the normality you describe. E.g. you, I and everyone else on this message board is maddeningly richer than the wildest dreams of 99% of people that have ever lived. However we've somehow got ourselves caught up in a world where we spend £100/£1000s on pointless tat for a religious festival for a religion we don't even follow. People literally get in debt and die for this sh1t. Think what a huge drop like 75% in income would do first before that adaptation

Liam Lawson is far more of a commercial and media proposition than 5'3 Yuki, right decision all things considered.

Yeh that's what I mean, club Board/shareholders won't allow it. Players and managers are paid many millions and in return for that you get flogged to death and are expected to earn your money. With the amount of cash involved in this tin pot, I can imagine full strength teams will be sent.

Damn it, I'm as good at hiding names as I am at decorating xmas trees....

I wrote on here a few weeks ago about putting a pic of vardy on our communal organised fun Xmas tree, and it being a huge bone of contention with the fun police. The winning floor was chosen, with the below message sent to all… Goes without saying I’m enemy no.1 with the approved fun committee. Can overhear people gossiping about me. Never known this feeling, it’s strangely so satisfying!

I highly doubt they’ll be allowed to rest players. There’s so much money involved that fifa and the club boards won’t have it

Yep pure corruption re getting Miami and Messi in, shows how much of a farce this tournament is. Not too bothered about Miami, I didn't find it that great when I went, partying and food is good but prices are insane. With the F1 being there long-term and matches at the 2026 world cup, plenty of opportunities to see the ground.

Yes yes I know it's a complete farce and modern football is dead. I hope clubs take weakened teams and treat the tournament with the little respect it deserves. Although the money involved will mean that will not happen. Anyway, tickets go on sale tomorrow and flight prices are cheap, quite a good opportunity to do a few grounds in short distance. NYC - Philly - Washington is an easy route with the match schedule. Tickets - FIFA Club World Cup 2025™

Do what the hell you want. Personally I cannot drink anything above 12 years with a mixer, and my years drinking anything below 12 years/sour mash type with mixer in grotty clubs is long gone. I like two rocks, or the block ice you get in decent bars. Good thread this, I've got some tips for duty free visits. Been meaning to properly try Japanese whiskies for a while, any tips?? My tip would be Canadian club 12 year, smooth and refreshing entry level bottle.

Ah ok. So what’s your other son going to do, wait outside?

Why bother with the emails. Just take both (you said both would be with you anyway) and get them in the pic. No point asking for permission in the modern world, you know what computer says no salaried employees are gonna say

Thanks for the invite, will let you know
