That’s arguably exactly what we’ve just done to smash the championship to bits. Can’t paint lcfc as some rule towing choir Boys. That’s proper head in clouds

No one apart from sky sports care about the league cup it seems. Midweek home games watching the reserves against lower league teams with 15k there are depressing. A few different away trips would shake up this season

Leicester are ball 14. Barrow or derby away pls https://www.efl.com/news/2024/august/14/carabao-cup-round-two-draw---ball-numbers--date-and-time/

Love Bahrain. Only place in that region I’d consider permanently working/living etc

Have lived and worked in 3 jurisdictions. We are so lucky as English speakers, can traverse the globe and pretty much be fine. If you are a male, drink beer and follow football, you're almost guaranteed to make friends in most parts of the world. Have a lot of admiration for those moving from non-English speaking jurisdictions, on their own, to work full-time. Especially hot - cold countries.

Usually used to call out jobsworths and other associated tickboxers/manual bashers who love process and cannot see the human element and nuances of life. But I understood your point

Took me two years to extend the lease on a property, 999 year extension, which has at least solved one problem. I have noticed residents are getting a lot more organised about service charges. They have always been a total scam, but now pockets aren't as deep, the pushback to the freeholder from residents is relentless. We have our local MP involved, citizens advice, and scores of residents making group/individual claims via the housing ombudsman and eventually small claims court. This has resulted in one success of a £50k reversal of historic water charges, and a few wins coming up. Would advise anyone dealing with freeholders to get organised and go through the system to reclaim costs that you think are not accurate. You have the right to see detailed invoices, procurement processes and results of work done. The allocation of costs across estates is another easy win. Eg if your freeholder owns multiple blocks, hires a contractor on a group basis and simply splits the cost per block, you can appeal. An equivalent cost between a 150 bed and 50 bed block for cleaning is obvs not correct.

Decent analysis today in the FT about 'the world's going to sh1t mate' you usually hear. If you stay within your confined cosy European bubble it certainly is, outside there are positive signs: Subscribe to read (ft.com) How should a universalist — somebody who holds that human life has equal worth irrespective of location — regard the overall trajectory of the past half century? The philosopher John Rawls suggested that questions about the just ordering of society should be considered from behind a “veil of ignorance”. If you knew nothing about your own attributes — whether you were rich or poor, male or female, Chinese or American — which society would you choose to inhabit: today’s world, or the world of 50 years ago? Given that your chances of being Chinese or Indian are roughly two-fifths, while your chances of being a westerner are about one-tenth, you would almost certainly choose the present. Trouble in Beverly Hills should not obscure the much wider progress of those who live on less elevated ground.

Europe is on fire every ‘summer’ from now onwards. Be mad as a bat to go Italy, Spain, Greece, the traditional brits abroad countries in august

Yeh I remember Bournemouth, nice town, very poor stadium for this level of football

Jealous. If I’d known they would fill their unique looking ground I’d have thought about going, and tied in some Olympics

This forum is gonna go off tonight LOL

Why is their stadium packed for this match lol? Are we still a big draw

Another early away KO suiting Jersey bulls, 5-0 up at Spelthorne within 60 mins.

Correct, as previous posts point out, he is staying with other athletes in the village who are also at their 'woodstock' - potentially once in a lifetime chance to define your career/life. if they get seriously taken down by his illness... Unpopular opinion incoming - less concerned about him passing it onto Marc Deschamps or Celine Agathe in the crowd or media room. there's loads of covid going around now, if you're a spectator at these events, you take that risk. And the consequence to them is nowhere near as brutal as to an elite athlete.

He knew he had covid before he ran?! That's insane if so, and makes me think much less of him (even though he deserved his brilliant gold in 100m). His argument will be there's nothing in the rules to stop him competing at such an important event, which is ofc true. But why come out and admit it?! Proper Martin Shkreli scorched earth thinking

I think a lot of it is commercial/sponsorship driven, like the Samsung selfies at the medal ceremonies. I was thinking womens beach volleyball players were wearing bikinis for the 10pm kick off solely for the lads. But then did wonder why they’re wearing visors and sunglasses….All sponsorship driven apparently

Only one side to get out of my bed tbf!! I agree the Olympics should be the highest level of the sport so football, tennis, golf (??), rugby should not be allowed. There should be squash, bowling, fishing included. But Olympics is the highest level of international basketball???? Bank balance should not play a part. In that case footballers should not turn up for the World Cup or any internationals, they get paid peanuts for that

It appears Noah lyles had covid, carried out in a wheelchair! Given everything he does is exaggerated, it’s unfortunately a struggle to believe he was really that sick

Lol what’s a competitors net worth got to do with competing in the olympics. Bank statements required to be uploaded before your space at the athlete village is authorised. Strip Usain Bolt of his golds!!

Yeh it is locked, forgot that, still have it on my favourites tab. A Partner at my previous firm was a Millwall fan and member and gave me his logon once. It is seriously unhinged.

* Members forum | Millwall Forum (millwallonline.com) See above for the Millwall one. It is WILD.

It's not tongue in cheek! We tend to do well on the anniversary fixture and we smashed them 4 zip in the season we went down. Forest aren't that great and we will turn up at least once this season.

Wow Friday night, works well for me. This is around the time of the helicopter anniversary, I predict we spank them 4-0, Vichai songs aplenty and this is the best day of season 24/25
