If anyone is looking for transport to (and back from) Amsterdam - I may be able to help.
Eurostar out Thursday morning, back on the Saturday morning (giving some time for museums, culture etc on the friday). I would need to transfer the ticket at least week before travel.
The VAR decision against Liverpool was an absolute nonsense. Made worse by the commentators finding ways to AGREE with the decision when anybody watching could see it was clearly wrong.
As for our coverage, I wasn't going to watch. But woke up on the sofa just as our match came on. So did. And...
I think, of the three, Burnley will be Ok. they haven't got going yet in terms of results, and its a steep learning curve, but they seem to have a bit of quality, both in terms of players and manager. Luton and Sheffield look to be gone after six games. A shame as it doesn't leave the room for...
He had the choice of taking one of two risks:
1. risk cutting ties with brighton, going with Potter and hoping everything goes well at Chelsea.
2. risk staying and hope that he keeps a position with the club and is able to continue developing his coaching career under a new manager.
As someone...
Horses for courses though? I did wave a Yemeni flag when Newcastle came to town, with the explicit intention of causing upset.
I suspect however that my subtle political pointscoring was wasted on the wobbly hordes of pissed-up, topless, Geordies in the away end.
If I was PIF I'd want my money back in that case. As others have said, he/she is arguing their case politely, patiently and persistantly. But also entirely ineffectually. If anything my distaste about the failure of Newcastle fans to oppose the new regime has been deepened.
It's odd, as the...
He was a sh*thouse. But he was OUR sh*thouse.
Worked really hard. Not a high volume of goals, but some real quality. Also ended Guendouzi's career at Arsenal. Which was nice.
Hope he does well. Except against us.
Apart from the obvious error ('great club??) I'd agree. As much as Palace may be paying him, I'm certain he'd get more at Chelsea and has chosen 1st team football and avoided the toxic mess of Chelsea. Sensible lad.
You're still a pr*ck though. Obviously.
Without wanting to derail the thread too far...I am pretty confident that the next government will not be a majority Tory one (in name at least). I am far less confident that what we get instead will do anything significant to challenge greed and power. Not in football nor anywhere else.
If you want a reality check, then read post #42 in this thread.
People are seriously comparing our childish (but fun) pantomime rivalry with palace to the financialized destruction of football, which in itself is just part of a process by which almost everything in society that matters is being...
Yes, but I think it goes a little further.
I believe the economic 'right' have understood that they are begining to lose the economic argument (eg the pushback against rail and water monopolies extracting private profit from public funds). Their solution is to align economic 'left' politics...
