What grinds my gears...

Kids need two coaches max at that age really and ideally they’d both have done thier FA Level 1 as a minimum.
Unless things change, I’d consider taking your lad to a different club with a more disciplined set up. Or overthrow the current manager and run the club properly yourself!
 

I’ve stopped coaching now unfortunately mate. I ran the U11’s last season down here in Bucks but sadly my boy has now taken up basketball instead so I take him to that now. 
 

We were in a development league and new clubs automatically went into a lower division to start with. Usually teams are ‘streamed’ again after New Year to avoid 15-0 scorelines in the second half of the season. 
 

You do get some crazy results at this age but it should hopefully even itself out by U12/13.


 

you coached the football right out of him lol

Absolutely. My dear old mum calls it Connervirus. 

 

There's also a lad at work who constantly calls it Convid. 

 

Annoys the shit out of me. 

I've heard it referred to as Cromer Virus, imagine that ending up with a thick North Norfolk accent absolute nightmare fuel.

The worst thing about ‘I Blame Wellens’ is I don’t even remember him getting that much shite, seemed to be a general consensus then and now that he was a handy and dependable player for us at that level.

He was crap. He was another Fryatt / Howard / Dyer that fans rated for some reason. Although tbf I quite liked Dyer.

I think you want the unpopular opinions thread, no? These three and Oakley were awesome in league 1.

Wellens wasn't crap.

He was a key player for 18 months-two years (won player of the season 2010/11) but then faded very quickly.

Doesn't hugely bug me but the term "foodie" goes right through me

One thing I hate about Instagram. There are a billion dickheads who post photos of the most ridiculous greasy sandwiches crammed full of any kind of shit they can find from some weirdo hipster London pop-up, every post looks the same, every post gets 10,000 likes. Or a photo of a doughnut with those Lotus biscuits stuck all over it. Who gives a shit.

 

Everyone likes food, most just have the decency not to eat full-on shameful bullshit and show everyone their deeds.

Codiv? I've got a mate who keeps referring to it as coronavitis! Tbh, it's pretty annoying hearing newsreaders refer to it as coronavirus one minute and COVID-19 the next. Does it really need two names?

Covid-19 is a strain of coronavirus, both are correct.

I know it shouldn't piss me off because its a freebee, but I sent a query to a company on the 7th of this month. They offered me a free sample, so I obviously said yes, and they replied saying it would take 3 to 5 working days. I still haven't received it. I can't really complain as it was a free offer, but I've put off making my usual purchase because this should have arrived before I made my next purchase. 

 

I realised writing that out it sounds really secretive, but I can't be arsed to edit. It was gillette and I was making a query about razors as I've just started shaving my head and I've tried various types and I was wondering what they'd suggest.

Live in a flat, so no bin to put it in.

Tell them you never received it, they'll have to refund you. Hate it when they think it's alright to leave stuff in the bin
