Not sure why everyone is enraged by this sale. This is the Brighton model isn't it? Buy low, sell high, reinvest some of the money in relative unknowns and repeat! Putting the transfer request in was a poor decision by Cucurella but the sale would have gone through regardless as soon as...

Its an interesting subject and I think there are some people that are naturally more likely to be go-getters. I am no biologist but as I understand it we are motivated primarily by hits of chemicals like Dopamine and serotonin, and, as well as environmental factors, how our brains process these...

If you had to the attitude of being happy where you are with a work-life balance then you wouldn't succeed as a professional footballer. Its a hugely competitive environment and only a tiny percentage with the commitment and drive to succeed make the cut and an even smaller amount get to the...

Everyone would including you given the chance! It's human nature and particularly for those that are driven to succeed. If it wasn't then Cucarella would probably have stayed at Getafe, its his home town and Im sure he was on enough money to survive. Why uproot the whole family for a few more...

It doesn't matter how much money someone earns, if you are likely to earn £20 million in your career for kicking a ball around and someone offers you £20 Million - £30 Million more to kick the same ball around, you are going to take it!!

I don't think you can make any assumptions about the development of the women's game as a spectator sport from last night. Major championships and one-off events are different, you see it with Wimbledon where everyone is in to tennis for a couple of weeks of the year or when people watch certain...

This is always spun as a problem for men to sort however ultimately more women need to watch sports. Theres a much larger percentage of Men that follow team sports, go to the games and sign up for the sports subscriptions, they spend a fortune on sports and thats why it's all geared towards men...

You say he's with a shit promotor but I think a lot of Joshuas success has been because of Matchroom. Apart from taking the Ruiz fight at short notice the rest of his career has been managed very well. He's ended up making more money than Tyson Fury, got massive sponsorship deals with the likes...

Yes I have been having lots of the same problems recently. There seems to be a ridiculous verification process and if you are in a rush its easy to think that the parking has been approved when it hasn't. Once the app times out or has a bad connection then I often need to restart my phone or I...

You have done the same holiday! Great to hear the experience of someone who has recently been! What was the Angsana Laguna like and would it be good for kids? We are staying at the Centara Grand on Karon Beach but they didnt have the room type we were looking for so we have had to compromise a bit.

I think its worse than GGG vs Brook or Canelo vs Khan because at least those fighters had already won world titles and towards the back end of their careers. I think this is a terrible decision for Benn at this stage of his career. He need to concentrate on winning titles at his own weight...

I have a holiday to Thailand booked in for April next year. 8 nights in Phuket (Karon Beach), 2 nights in an elephant sanctuary called elephant hills and then 3 nights in Bangkok. We did originally look at Chaing Mai but decided it would be a bit much to do 2x cities in the time we have...

Just went to have a look at their current tour dates..6 sold out shows at Wembley Stadium! Can't be many bands out there that could do that!

I don't think he is that preachy...He has views on things, and is quite open about them, but i have not heard him push them on to other people. It's more an image that the media like to portray. They ask the leading questions and he answers them in an open and honest way! He just seems like a...

I saw them on the original parachutes tour, there must have been no more than 800 people there and he said it was the biggest gig they had headlined ! I loved that album, less so the rest, however I do think they have had an incredible career with genuine world wide success. For me they divide...

As I understand it there was nothing to stop the government from doing this before Brexit as work permit rules have always been the responsibility of the UK government.

Can you explain what effect Brexit has had on work permit rules for people coming to us from countries outside of the EU?

I don't know what to think now, I'm trying to balance my admiration for him as a key member of one of the greatest and most influential bands of all time with the revelations in this thread about his character and his shocking attitude over that late night sandwich!

I think there are undoubtedly many uses for blockchain technology but this doesn't necessarily mean that the long-term prognosis for crypto currencies as an investment is still good. My take on the ridiculous prices rises over the past couple of years is that they have directly correlated with...

Has anyone got one of the hybrid - Gas/ Charcoal BBQ's? Was wondering if these provide a solution to the convenience vs taste problem?
