@werdermouth It’s strange to me, that a successful business owner like SG, continues to plough his own cash into a venture that loses money year on ye...
@lenmasterman As I alluded to in my post, I guess we’ll never know the full truth. Like you, I’m dubious about the announcements regarding IJ, but I’v...
Great work OFB and definitely a reminder of Boro reality at the moment. It’s tempting to look for people to blame, but none of us is privy to what goe...
@john-richardson I actually bought a friend of mine that very book many years ago. It’s a small world.
Today, we’ve assembled a new log store and filled it full of logs. A real sense of achievement and so good to be in the sunshine. IMG_1771.j...
Apologies for the short absence, whilst I’ve been trying to get my head together. When Diasboro was first launched, after the demise of Untypical B...
@powmillnaemore Thanks for your response to the previous post. I’ve not replied to you Philip because we’d end up falling out and that’s not something...
@pedro No worries. I love this Forum, not least for the polite and respectful way we all talk to each other. As far as I’m concerned we’re still (virt...
@pedro That’s quite an opinion you’re expressing there. And that’s all it is - an opinion. Let’s take train drivers - their employers deliberately red...
@clive-hurren Going forward, I suspect snow will be the least of our worries. Flooding and summer droughts are likely to cause far more issues, I thin...
@k-p-in-spain I’d be interested to know if the original photo had the ball on it or not.
@chris-from-barlby Image how much ANY property in Marlborough would be worth now, let alone a two of terraces. I’ve only been to the town once but it ...
@werdermouth Crikey. How would you cope with that? A life changing opportunity snatched away and no redress?
@werdermouth Spot the Ball - I’d completely forgotten about that. I recall people with rulers drawing invisible lines from several player’s eye lines ...
It’s very interesting to hear the stories of other people’s Pools experiences and it also brought to mind a brief period after my parents had retired ...
@lenmasterman Sorry if I’ve posted the Cardiff starter too early. I’ve got some things on tomorrow and didn’t want to delay it until late on Friday ev...
@powmillnaemore I suppose we’d have to analyse whether the tactic has brought us goals as well as causing us to leak them. The jury’s out.
@powmillnaemore It’s a tactic to draw opposition forwards towards our defence creating spaces for our midfielders. It also seems to be a very popular ...
@k-p-in-spain That’s my conclusion too. It just seems such a basic area to work on.
There’s a lot of talk of Arsenal’s set piece goals at the moment, particularly their corner routines. To me, it seems obvious that there’s room for in...
Well that was tense at the end. The difference down the left when Borges came on was telling, although I understand the need to rest Engel. I'm sur...
A first half that was anything but easy on the eye. A change in attitude, skill or maybe personnel needed in the second half.
Looks like my self medication worked last night, as I’m feeling much better today. Two bottles of fizz and a couple of single malt nightcaps helped me...
Don’t bank on it - I’ve got a supply of various single malts which I may well use to self-medicate.
@original-fat-bob Who’d be a goalkeeper? We take it for granted when they make worldie saves and hammer them when they make a mistake. I don’t have mu...
@werdermouth I’ve succumbed too, having picked it up from the family over Xmas. No pub for me tonight, I’m afraid.
@john-richardson Hi John - just a heads up that your card arrived today. Many thanks and Happy New Year.
Another great starter, Len. Like you I fear a loss of points tomorrow - if we’re the real deal we need to win the next two games but I wouldn’t bet in...
An interesting article from the Guardian about the gulf between the Championship and the Premier League:/p>
