I remember thinking we'd rue the loss of Leo Ostigard more than Gyokeres. Both done well since leaving, but I was clearly wrong about that. I also remember, years and years ago, thinking we'd rue the loss of Michael Standing more than Gareth Barry. What I'm saying is, you should all be asking...

Isn't he off to Inter Miami? That's the rumour I heard. If true, it would mean he's a sort-of replacement for Diego Gomez. As for OP's question, absolutely not. He's basically the opposite of the profile the club has for "older pros". We do NOT want our young players looking up to him.

Chelsea fans turn on one of their own for the "crime" of having a baby with her same-sex partner. Horrible club with the worst fans in football. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/nov/18/chelsea-pride-condemn-abuse-directed-at-sam-kerr-after-baby-announcement

No, you get 5GB for free when you sign up for the free tier of iCloud, as I said.

I pay 3 quid a month for 200GB. Apparently I'm only using 60GB of it. I'm sure 3 quid is "not trifling" for some people, but how many of those people have iPhones? The issue here is basically the same one Microsoft ran into all those years ago when Windows came with Internet Explorer and...

Apologies if fixtures, but this seems particularly relevant for this discussion. Regardless of the politics side of things, Twitter has morphed into something that's bad for football and bad for football fans...

This is a really weird response. You've quoted only part of my sentence, without the conditional clause that preceded it. I didn't say "I think he'd be a positive influence on the youngsters", I said "If the club thinks..., then I'd trust their judgement". The purpose and function of...

I'm not sure he'd add a great deal to the squad in playing terms. But if the club decides it's worth bringing him in as a positive influence on the youngsters, then I'd trust the club's judgement on that. I can only guess at what any given player's influence on the squad is gonna be...

He's also the man who thought he could make Twitter more efficient by firing the coders who wrote the fewest lines of code (i.e., he fired all Twitter's most efficient coders).

Hurzeler's definitely changed the way I watch Brighton games (for info, I live abroad so don't see games in-person, but I see every match on TV because the official Premier League streaming package here is a bargain). Under RDZ I used to pretty routinely switch the game off if we conceded...

I mean, the fact it's the "Gossip Column" is reason enough not to take it *too* seriously, no? I don't think we need to start demanding people research it.

I had a "Dunk has to go straight back in" reply all written out and I deleted it and wrote this instead because I just don't know anymore. Dunk's leadership is invaluable, and many of our best attacking moves over the last couple of seasons have started with a pass from Dunk. But JPVH and Igor...

Looking at the table, I see we just need Arsenal and Chelsea to both lose today so we can stay there. Shouldn't be a problem. Now, let me just check who they're each playing... oh.

That's not really an answer though, is it? And @Kinky Gerbil's even less so, but that one doesn't even warrant a response. See, if a party presented a policy programme that was literally everything I ever wanted -- hell, they could even put in "free money for life for blokes called Jim" -- but...

So where does the fact that one side voted for the deportation and denaturalisation of their brown-skinned neighbours come into this "analysis"?

Must admit I've wasted most of this morning watching American gamer chuds only now realising they've completely shafted themselves. The person replying here probably thinks he's so smart for this. Edit: Here's the article if anyone's interested...

I'm back with another update for all you schadenfreude fans, and this one's a doozy

Trumpism in action. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/black-people-text-messages-picking-cotton-nearest-plantation-rcna179036

These next four years are going to be a wild time for fans of schadenfreude.

I think I've posted about this before, but I took the nerdiest route possible into this. I only had a light interest in football when I was little, but then when I was 12 or so, I got a pirated copy of Championship Manager for my Amiga. Not knowing much about football, the obvious thing to do...
