Farage is a personality which people go for, hence criticism is about him, not necessarily the overarching policy or ideas he espouses. Cameron is very polished, when asked a question he sells an answer back which is often different to the one asked. There's a fair bit of skill in that. Take...

Sparta at War, 550-362 BC Quite good, lots of myth dispelling and such.

knowing teachers as I do one of the more stressful aspects is how parents interact with them. Unsure if there was ever a 'good old day' but I've had some awful accounts retold about how parents insult, demean or behave to them. As a kid I remember my parents trusting the word of the teacher and...

Some very good points, the Barton incident overshadowed the two main reasons you didn't beat us in that match. 1. Finishing your chances - you had a sitter in the first half and in the second a squared pass would have made it 3-1 with 20 mins to go. 2. Keane had a free header in the box to...

Cameron and pals desperately want Corbyn to remain in, politically I'm neutral but it's laughable that Cameron could eat a baby live at PMQs and most of the press would ignore it and simply roll out a piece about Labour infighting/extremism. The Tory nightmare is Corbyn to go with 18-24 months...

He usually drops into the channel near their right back and thus allows Arfield to cut in, which is where he's so effective for us. We play 4-4-2 but it's almost 4-2-2-2 at times.

we play 4-4-2, as mentioned above you need to have a good exit plan when you get the ball back, ours is to hit Vokes (who drops deep) or Gray (sits in the channel). Both forwards split to get away from the crowded centre. This is where we get the hoofball tag from, though it's perhaps a bit...

I imagine that there are a number of ways, firstly go wide as there won't be the space through the centre. Secondly move it quickly, the forwards need to look to receive down the wings and channels. With good passing and tempo you can negate the extra man though you need to be well disciplined...

I thought 30 seconds was automatically added on for each substitution? Gamesmanship exists in practically every part of the match, timewasting by both teams is just one of them.

I mentioned to a mate how he looked like someone waiting for a bus throughout the whole game. When the goal was disallowed and when they scored he seemed non-plussed.

If we don't beat QPR at home and Charlton away then we don't deserve to go up, simple as that. I'm presuming the Boro game will be on Sky?

attacking players seeking contact has been happening more recently, the more common form is where a player in in the box and looks to go past a defender with their trailing leg fishing for any contact.

managers generally publicly defend their players because if they don't they risk upsetting team morale and splitting the dressing room (look at the reaction a manager gets when he blames his players). In the case of Barton I'm sure Dyche was also concerned that if he said something along the...

Yep. My post was non-fiction, the wrestling industry (and particularly WWE) is exceptionally political, plenty of mid card wrestlers have written books which carry some astounding stories about people trying to get one over each other. It's very competitive in terms of getting booked and given...

she had a very, very traumatic upbringing but managed to cut it at the WWE. Her career started to nosedive when HHH dumped her for Steph, a coincidence I'm sure. Then the bad choices started and I think her past caught up with her. Very much mistreated by the industry she did so much for.

Sort of, I'm not from Burnley but from following them for a good while it's this game and the Rovers match which is classed as a derby. PNE will really be up for it. In one way this might give the players a mental break, they won't see the PNE match as a must win for the 3 points as part of the...

cheers - when you got Hughton I thought it was a great signing as he is a class manager on and off the pitch (particularly after how he was treated at Newcastle). He's a great fit as now you have the academy he'll be brilliant for the younger players coming through. Dyche is similar with...

if we were 10th and they were 11th it'd be a massive game. In some senses the fact that it's a derby almost makes the needed 3 points an irrelevance. Imagine you were playing Pompey in a similar situation!

From what I sense our team would run through brick walls for Dyche. I realise he's wildly unpopular with opposition fans but he's fostered a very good team spirit. Our run in is the opposite of yours with PNE, QPR and Charlton we have an easier last two games which we should win (if we don't we...

Hemed first scorer at 4/1 at Betfred (Double Delight offer). Reckon he'll nab a couple tonight.
