My point in the His Dark Materials thread was that it doesn't matter if you don't like something, you don't have to watch it and you don't have to discuss it. I don't watch Ru Paul, but know several who do, and love it. Good for them, but it's not for me, so I'll watch other things, thanks...

But without the expectation that every single person is entertained by the same programmes. I saw an episode of Ru Paul's Drag Race once and didn't find it informative, explanatory or entertaining so I didn't watch it again and started a grand total of zero threads on NSC about it. ???

We've already established you have no interest in it, so why are you continuing to watch it in order to criticise?

Personally, I think he's got the quality to play in the Premier League. But he isn't consistent enough to be someone you rely on. He isn't consistent enough to be a regular starter. It's a very high standard to play in the Premier League and clubs at our level can't afford a player who is only...

I'm about 500 pages into The Secret Commonwealth at the moment, no spoilers please! :thumbsup: I'm not sure how I feel about Malcolm, just generally. Another strong episode last night, I thought. Plenty of character development on John Faa and he feels like a very authentic leader of the...

I had to have a strong word with some of the boys in my Whatsapp group for Aftertiming over the weekend. Pretty classless "look at my winnings" messages - not a word to however many abject failures they'd also experienced over the course of the weekend. I'm all for bigging up a win, that's fine...

I think the standard of women's football is going to increase all the time and the more football clubs like ours who invest in the training facilities will continue to drive up the standard. And change the attitudes of the fans who think all money invested in the women's game is a bad...

Of course there's the psychological impact - near misses have an impact as well, providing the driver isn't a sociopath! But it's the cyclist getting physically hurt, was my point. A driver's confidence can be rebuilt far quicker than broken bones would take to heal, etc. You're right though...

I really should get a dashcam for my bike. I cycle 8 miles to and from work all week and, without fail, someone tries to kill me once a day, minimum. Be it not stopping at a stop line, turning directly into my path or from time to time, pulling out directly in front when I'm heading down a hill...

I really think the thread has been opened and closed at the same time there, frankly.

There certainly was a couple of years ago - it was magnificent. :lolol: A 0-0 draw. "You're meant to make me money, all you've done it cost me money on this task". How the heart bleeds! I think that was the year of The Brand (RIP).

Buildings can be knocked down. There's plenty of that going on around Brighton at the moment and it's long overdue. It's high time we developed the land there is and drag us into the modern day. There are ways, it's just a question of whether there is enough of a will. If there is, they'll get...

That's no reason not to do something. If it's better for the taxi using consumer, better for the taxi driver, better for the station and better for the local residents - then it's a reason TO do something. It doesn't matter how expensive it is, it'll be worth doing. Improving the infrastructure...

Isn't there a happy middle ground here though? Can't they re-design that part of the concourse so that the road from the back of the station feeds through to the front and people can be picked up from the front? And then be dropped off at the front as well, although it would be an arse for the...

I was thinking exactly the same actually - and there was a look of resignation on Dean's face. I actually thought he might do what the chap did a few years ago, and resign from the process. The other fella did it having won a task because of the absolute rubbish Karen and Lord Sugar were saying...

I'm still really enjoying Carina on a weekly basis, but her voice is quite annoying. :down: I think she'll make the interviews.

There are a lot of abritrary tasks though, it's hardly unusual for Lord Al to make the decision based purely on theory. Like when they produce some product and get "orders worth £1million" - it's not true, it's theoretical orders for a product which doesn't exist. With the e-Bikes, Halfords...

What really annoys me is that they tease a clip from the next week's show at the start of each week's opening titles - so you have an immediate spoiler. Lottie was shown on a train during the opening titles this week, which meant that she was avoiding the cannon again. It doesn't spoil which...

Interesting watching the Q&A involving Ben White on the previous page. He's very quietly spoken and really not all that keen to talk too much. He comes across as very humble and reserved. The Rio Ferdinand answer wasn't popular. :lolol:

Which is why Dan Ashworth was appointed to oversee the whole process and make sure we're getting those decisions right. Right now, you can easily make the argument that we are. Ben White is impressing everyone at Leeds and will be ready to join our squad for next season, but on the other hand...
