    [Misc] Working from home

    Good idea. I have one of those too. Thanks. Yes, heating goes on in November regardless. I pay myself my own winter fuel allowance as I go all **ck it by that point.

    [Misc] Working from home

    Getting colder, although I'm reluctant to put the heating on during the day as I'm all electric. The problem is what sort of clothing to wear. I don't feel comfortable working dressed as Michelin Man. What sort of layers do folk use wear when the temperature drops a bit ?

    [Football] Finland v England 5pm (ITV)

    To be honest, I don't give a flying flamingo. International football is enjoyable to watch, but I don't get passionate about England. The Euros and the World Cup are football's T20. Spain's victory this year was a tournament where the best team won. But had Spain missed their 2-1 chance and...

    [Cricket] Cricket- England tour of Pakistan- October 2024

    Looks like Pakistan are using the SAME pitch for the next Test and have been drying it out. So could be a real battle between Leach and Ahmed. https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/pakistan-to-re-use-same-pitch-in-multan-for-second-test-against-england-1455093

    [Football] Finland v England 5pm (ITV)

    International management is different. History has many successful managers with poor CVs and many unsuccessful ones with outstanding reference. 50% is whether the players like their boss. The other 50% is if he knows the best team and can put them in a formation that works for them. The rest...

    [Albion] Yet another Amex food complaint

    Folk should try Whitehawk for the Hawk Burger. £8 and you won't need to eat for a week. Although you may not have to eat again if you have cardiovascular issues

    [Albion] Yet another Amex food complaint

    Only if you'd forgotten to take your own at half the price. Crisps were out of date and the pies were the 22p Sainsbury's efforts with a tea spoon of mince in them. Folk are at football for three or four hours. I'd simply say eat a dinner before you go. No half time scramble and no insulting...

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    Are they ? Or is there just a barrage of negative headlines in nearly all the newspapers as expected ? It's not like the endless mud slinging is going to achieve anything. They're here for five years. My thought process has become so much easier since I stopped being bothered by politics, or at...

    [Cricket] Cricket- England tour of Pakistan- October 2024

    Apparently Multan is the joint flattest pitch on the planet. The next Test is in...oh, Multan. Anyway, the third Test is in Rawalpindi. That's err, the other flattest pitch on the planet. I wonder if they might decide not to water the next two pitches more. Perhaps produce a couple of bunsens...

    England conceded 500 against New Zealand in 2022 and won, also on the last tour of Pakistan. Very entertaining.

    Firstly, that's not proven, and secondly, even if I believed it to be true I wouldn't share it on a public forum.

    [Football] England v Greece match thread

    Hold on, I thought England we're rubbish in the Euros and Gareth Southgate should have been sacked before the final ? Or am I being wooshed ? You don't get any points for that where I'm concerned. Everyone does it.

    [Football] England v Greece match thread

    It happens. Most international fans are rational enough not to call for a managerial change every time the opposition of a shot on goal. It's a really fascinating game. Greece are very well organised. Their transitional play has been outstanding. But all the talk has been woe is England like...

    I'd give him the job. No reason not to. Players like him and that's half the battle in these games. If folk are bed wetting after England go 1-0 down in a match then they are forever bed wetting.
