I've posted something very similar. Whilst the law permits a limit which by its nature is hard to comprehend/know, there will be people who make errors of judgement and ultimately make a mistake. Likewise there are 5 and drive morons who are a major hazard to others. Very different.

Where has this 50k figure come from? Or is it from the 'Vardy is on 140k' contract experts? Or even worse from the Metro!

This is the problem though. It's impossible to actually know id you're over or not unless you breathalyse yourself, and even they aren't particularly accurate. It's something we have a law on that's based on how different bodies react to something. In an ideal world it would be zero tolerance but that's difficult because alcohol breaks down slowly in people's systems and it is regular for people to have some left in their system the morning after even a couple of drinks. Because there's a law with a bit of give in it people can legally have a drink and drive; it makes the whole thing less black and white. So, in my opinion there is a huge difference between being slightly over and recklessly driving after more than a couple of pints. I will wait to know more about Choudhury's case before passing more than the judgement I already have.
-
I agree unless he's marginally over the limit and thinks he's big braining it by giving a blood sample rather than a breath one. I know that's not how it works but some think it does
-
Completely agree. Fair point
-
To be fair that is literally supporting an opinion the majority of his generation have. Think the drink driving is quite a lot worse.
-
This is fair, I do think that it is a spectrum though and depending on where he falls on that (ie did he have 2 pints which many people drive on) is important. I like Hamza but he definitely needs to grow up a bit

Restarting watching Dark and looking forward to it. Also looking forward to the new Alexander docuseries. Also, I was thinking yesterday at the lack of any good shows about pirates or naval war fiction (except Hornblower) - does anyone have any recommendations of that ilk?
-
Not completely where it began but Blink 182 and early/mid 2000s emo got me more into music and led to what I listen to now.
-
Can we actually do this I want to know if it's true
-
Agree - by far our best player last night.

I think you can accept part of this without accepting the whole thing. Yes there will need to be some advancement of the system, but imo some of those changes should be nuanced. And there isn't going to be a complete overhaul. I think Vestergaard should be re-signed, if only for the times we are playing shit teams (which there are plenty of), and then to be back up when our style has to have a greater shift when we are playing the top half. I actually think it's a complete no brainer.
-
Wild observation? There's about 10 teams that invert full backs. How many teams are there in the Football League? Any vaguely possession oriented football doesn't mean 'like Man City'. In fact I'd say most teams prefer possession based but fast breaking football which works against the argument. High pressing is used more than ever (see us last night) so it is hard to understand why people are bored on such a grand scale. Or maybe you are just making a load of arguments for causality to back up an argument based purely on correlation.
-
I've got a Fold 4 and I love it. My friends hate it though. Still think I'm going to go SIM only when my contract ends this summer for a year or so until there is a major change.
-
Hardly any grounds are good though and most teams still don't play like Man City. I agree that the crowd is better on a fast break etc but crowds are getting worse all the time, and no team can be breaking forward with numbers 24/7.
-
There's a bit of bite in here for once. Now if we could channel that into improving the atmosphere rather than at UFS/others...
-
Me too. Not perfect though so others will say he's shit.
-
One thing I will say is that (although I don't think they were right) we did at least make some subs to try and protect the lead, they just turned out to be the wrong ones. There are clearly lots of different perspectives of what the right substitutions would be. I disagree that mistakes were exactly the same as before. I think the mistake was bringing KDH off, and also think Hamza should have moved forwards into midfield and bring another defender on. McAteer should have come off and Cannon should have been given 5 mins longer. But other posters have said completely different things. As long as he learns and keeps trying different things then I'm not overly worried.
-
KDH was still our best pressure on the ball in midfield, but yes I accept not quite his normal engine (which is the best in the football league). Kasey should have gone first.
-
I know he's not 100% but taking KDH was criminal imo. And Cannon had loads left in the tank and looked dangerous. We live and learn

My mate who works in advertising got asked in his interview what his all time favourite advert is and said this haha
-
This is undoubtedly true but still... Iheanacho?

Crazy early for a goalkeeper to retire isn't it?
