    [Albion] Banardo

    I like the name Bornado, which could apply to a number of NSC peeps, really.

    [Film] Film 2019

    Now that i remember, i snuck down to the local cinema to watch a surprise film a fortnight ago. Twas Luce. Whilst watching it i knew it would antagonise a friend from work, who is Eritrean and quite proud of it. The film is about young man who was adopted from "war-torn Eritrea" - that made him...

    [Politics] The General Election Thread

    I'm in the Hornsey and Wood Green constituency, and in spite of a big win for Labour there last time around it seems like the Lib Dems think they have a chance. I am bombarded by post every other day - I hope the huge remain vote they think will be influential. Whilst at the same time, a bit...

    [Politics] Society

    Thanks for this. I was thinking of it on the way to work this morning, or more thinking back to my father, long passed and with memories of nothing but niceness a little tainted, who before Christmas each year would have us all take out a box of goodies or necessities to a homeless person or 2...

    [Football] Granit Xhaka's apology

    This doesn't excuse any dickheadish trolling with malevolent intent, but i wonder about who would be our Xhaka in such a situation. As in, if it's true that he was chosen as captain by the squad itself, whilst being generally unadmired by the fans already, who would we constantly jeer in part...

    Christmas Lights Switch On

    I was in Ourense last Christmas, and the mayor, in an anti-austerity message, spent big on Christmas, and it was bloody lovely. He's to double the budget this year too, with a mad array of lights and performances. I'll be there for some of it. It makes such a difference. I'd then come home...

    [Film] Film 2019

    At this year's festival t'other week i resisted the allure of Monos as it was on general release so shortly after. I went to see it this evening, for a mere fiver, but wish i'd spent another tenner on it at the festival. What an intoxicating beauty of a film. So beautiful and mesmerising to...

    [Food] 34 custard creams

    After cycling back from the dismal Chelsea game a few weeks back, which took about an hour and a quarter, i bought an on-sale 3-pack of white chocolate and cookies Magnums. I arrived home, thinking i'll nibble through one per day. Of course, about an hour went by and all 3 had been...

    [TV] Carol Vorderman.

    When i was working for a publishing company going bust, many years ago, i was in the CD Rom department. Carol's beaming face was on the front of a number of our GCSE cases, and it seemed we owed her about a hundred gees. Her invoices bombarded the department's fax machine every few hours with...

    [Football] "Emery Out"

    I'd give him until early December and then fire him after a surprise home pounding.

    [Football] Raheem Sterling

    Ok will do. *fingers to temples and MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM* nope. not possible with that poor touch.

    [Football] Raheem Sterling

    At times has an awful touch, but he's banging them in. Highly effective, and incredibly quick, and a decent spokesman at times, but not the best footballer.

    [Albion] Still keeping the faith with Potter?

    Yes i am on the firmly pro-Potter side. We're undrearified, but need to turn that into enough results to satisfy those who only want points. I want them too, and goals, for that matter, but deadliness often comes at a large financial cost. I think, as we have seen for quite some time, goal...

    Yes, especially that individual person.

    [Misc] London commuters appear to attack XR protestor

    I have and i travel most days with the London cyclist c*nts. My missus, who is small and female, has had it done to her a few times too. There's a general mercilessness and intensity to this city, in which i've lived for 25 years or so, and it is heightened on the tube and train especially.

    [Misc] London commuters appear to attack XR protestor

    Especially the London c*nts who will shove, usually smaller female, people off of the inside of carriages to make sure they get on. There's something about London which very much makes people worse than they are. I feel it when landing back from a holiday, and all of a sudden bustling my way...

    [Football] Derby shambles

    I know that if i am ever out boozing and drunkenly board a vehicle to drive perilously into another vehicle and then a lamppost, following which i scarper from the scene, i'll write to Ryan Giggs to ask him to copy and paste one of his good character letters that i can hand to a judge. Maybe in...

    [Albion] Why is Dunk consistently overlooked by England?

    Hardly littered with a squad of legends, so there'll be times when it doesn't work and other teams outplay us. It's fine to criticise and declare the ordinariness of a number of players, but expectation shouldn't be often high and such a performance be labelled a disgrace, i don't think, like.

    [Film] Films you LOVE everyone else seems to hate

    Uncle S, can i ask whether you have seen, and like, the film Sorcerer? The 70s, William Friedkin one. I only watched it for the first time this morning, probably partly snubbing it for it being a remake of the classic Wages of Fear. Tis a beauty in its own right though, i thought, with the...
