Relative to perceived sizes of clubs, though. Sunderland can be forgiven, they are now a third tier club so their priorities are obviously very different. I just find it interesting and think that it's something else which should contribute to the perception of how big a club is.

I am surprised to see both Sunderland and Newcastle doing so poorly, there must be no shortage of young Northern lads wanting to get involved but there's seemingly not much talent floating around up there. Or they've not had the investment needed to develop their string of...
Isn't it amazing how many people are now including Jahanbakhsh in their team selections, when nobody thought him worthy of a place on a fictional bench a month ago.
There is no footballing justification for Lewis Dunk not being in the squad - that's the reality. You look at the players who are being picked ahead of him, and none of them are as good as Dunk. Stones is THE single most hilariously overrated player England have produced (except perhaps Lingard...
I think times are relative to what your goals are - it isn't important to be fast. Personally, I'm enjoying running fast and hard and I'm very much intending to continue to do so - but there will be times that I'm not able to run at full pelt. This time last year I was carrying a bit of weight...
Incredible life story, she sounded like quite a character. Sorry for your loss.
I was in Darlington just before Christmas, the place has a charm I wouldn't have expected. The brick train borders on bizarre, but South Park is stunning and their parkrun course is marvellous. I went for a run up...
Well, if we're playing this game!
2014 - 19:52 - none

2016 I had a foot problem so I wasn't able to train until a few weeks before the race itself. Just narrowly nursed home in...
I assumed they'd based it on the shirt numbers, unless they've got that wrong as well? Fogden was definitely a winger, Fraser played in the centre with varying competence. I don't recall Dan Taylor at all, same with Dan Leach and Ashley Jarvis.
:lolol: It only occurred to me to look it up after posting, so I hastily edited. I was surprised to see Elphick at left back, and Gatting on the left wing - but I remember Dean Wilkins being a big fan of playing players in various positions to make them more well rounded. Brendan Rodgers' team...
Vukoje looks like a player. :clap2:
I remember the youth Cup game with Chelsea as well, Scott Sinclair played for Chelsea and I recall Joe Gatting playing for us and looking the business. I'm sure there were notable others from the game too, but those are the two I recall.
I looked it up...
So, having watched the Trump stream of consciousness, which started with, "During my presidency, Iran will never have a nuclear weapon" before the greeting, the takeaways are quite clear. Firstly, it's all Obama's fault for not assassinating the Soleimani chap sooner. Secondly, it's Nato's fault...
I have no question I'm in better general health as a result of getting into running, whether it has taken years off the age of my arteries I don't know - but I don't need any science or study to tell me I'm in better shape.
A nice 8 mile loop for me at lunch time, I'm looking forward to seeing...
It is clearly ridiculous that Swansea fans living in Cardiff need to travel to Swansea and back in order to see the game. There's no other conversation to be had about it - there's no justification, no excuse, no fair reasoning for it. It's overkill in the extreme.
Football needs to remind...
I am also entered - can't miss out on an NSC 10 mile outing. :thumbsup: I'll definitely put my hand up and ask for a lift though please, my car goes in for her MOT this month and I suspect there's going to be some work required on her underbelly. I'm a bit worried about how much she's going to...
Zlatan came on for the last 30 minutes but didn't trouble the onion bag in a 0-0 draw.
Young Ronaldo, on the other hand, rolled in a second half hatty (including a penalty) in a 4-0 Juventus win. I really hope Inter carry on their form and win the league though.
