Ultimate respect for him as a tennis player. I watched his documentary resurfacing on a flight. In awe of his grit and determination but his personality really grates on me. Almost like a parody. Kind of a dour Scottish David Brent.

This feels a bit like Leon Knight. Some love him, and some don't. But he's entertaining and gets a chant! "Swansman, Swansman, from Sweden he comes, The greatest fan of Potter, he'll never be done. 21,015 posts and counting, he's always there, In every thread, he'll get in their heads, without...

Drew, are you a Harry superfan or against the rest of the Royals? - I do respect the passion you've defended him with. If you were in the cottage that night, they'd be one less neckless & dog bowl broken.

I know it's not quite a Jamie Vardy story but the idea that he came from a lower league is true. Solly made his England under 20’s debut in 2014 but was still a fringe player at the club. In 2014 Knocky had already played with Leicester in the Premier league. This is where attitude comes into...

He’s clearly not the only player to have ever lost someone significant or dealt with personal issues while playing at a too level. I think the key difference between Knocky and Solly was attitude and coachability. One already thought they were a premier league player whilst the other was...

Asking someone how many people they killed in the conflict is inappropriate. Publically telling everyone how many people you killed in conflict is pretty obnoxious too.

There was a big group of Arsenal fans in the West. I think they must have been in a box or 1901. They clearly had too much champagne and prawn sandwiches. It kicked off a bit when they kept celebrating the Arsenal goals and someone threw a bottle back at them. Not your Arsenal TV type though...

RIP Darius. Took big Rik Waller's place on the show as well. This thread reminds me of an NSC fan who loves Gary Barlow? Did I dream this up, or is there someone that gets really defensive about how good Gary Barlow is?

Surely a resale price of c15m puts Maupay clearly in the green. 26 goals for 5m + wages.

Yep! Matty sold him some furniture when he was leaving the club and it never got delivered.

Thanks. I hadn't seen that. RIP

Wow! That's crazy to see. Had history been different we could have potentially been one of the largest cities from a population/catchment area to not have a club? If that happened, do you think we'd now have an AFC Wimbledon-type resurrection and if so, where would we be now?

Is the Jamie'd thread archived somewhere? I haven't seen it in years but would love another read.

Is anyone doing Boston this year? It's nice to see it back in its usual spot of April and excited for the buzz in the city. I ran some of the route a few weeks ago when people were doing their last long run! - Heartbreak hill felt just as bad. It reminded me of 2021 when the self-proclaimed...

I'm based in Boston, the US where it's been legalized. It's like turning up at an Apple store. They have an iPad with different menus and offer advice on what you might want. Edibles, infused spritzers, joints etc. It feels as normal as walking into an off-license and has definitely removed...

How does that work? And that works with the food as well? I always assumed not being tied to breweries would help on the alcohol side.

Not a fan of Tim Martin, but you have to admit it's an amazing business model.... Massive-scale so they can buy everything as it's coming to the end of its sell date and still get it out at a big discount. Repurpose of stunning period buildings that would likely otherwise turn into flats or be...

My pals Archibald & Tarquin said it was an incredible game. I'm going to check out the highlights now.

Just looked it up. Like the concept and less running. Have you done this one before?

I'm going to take a look at that one. It's the 3 time per week one?
