Not sure if this is a thing but the moderator on a forum I use just mentioned that the government are bringing in sweeping online reforms for any sites that 'enable communication' between users.
While it's meant to be targeting 'big tech' it will apply to every forum that is based in the UK.
There's all sorts of new compliance and threats of fines for anyone who doesn't meet it (of up to 18 million). Anyway, a few forums are just going 'NOPE' and saying they'll shut down in March. I saw a link to some dull-assed London cycling forum that's been going for 15 years or something and the guy is like 'f**k all this' and shutting up shop. But he explains it all better than the official Ofcom site.
Am I tripping or is the apathy so high that there's not even a match thread on game day?
Apologies if I'm spackman-ing this. But I can't see one.
It's a battle of midtable with Hull City on a DDLLWW run vs Ciffy's Supers (DDWDDL).
I'm not going to say must win. It's too early for that. But it might be must win in terms of me not exploding in rage at us dropping points in a winnable home game.
Marti's got this. 2-0. I've not looked at team news but let's just say Frey and Dembele.
Right. Statistically, at least 50% of LFW hates rap and thinks it's some sort of bullshit where they're "just talking" but that's like your wife saying "it's just 22 men chasing a ball on a park" about football.
So, I'm starting this thread because basically I don't give a f**k about football until we're in relegation trouble.
If you think rappers have no skill or talent, try this.
Abdominal - Vicious Battle Raps
If you think rap is American pop bullshit, try this hard UK goodness.
Could we lose the next game and go into the final Saturday literally cacking our arse? Yes, possibly. But we're in that lovely 96/97 form where we're inconsistent but okay and there are some sketchy teams below us. So I'm hopeful. Hopeful but SHATTING!
BLACKBURN v Coventry HUDDERSFIELD v BIRMINGHAM Millwall v PLYMOUTH SHEFF WEDS v West Brom
If we lose and everything goes badly in the other games (inc. Brum beating Hudds), it'll look like this.
20 - QPR - 50 (Final match away to Coventry, 8th) 21 - Sheff Weds - 50 (Final match away to useless fking Sunderland, 13th) ---- 22 - Birmingham - 49 (Final match home to Norwich, 6th but pretty much sorted for a playoff place now) 23 - Huddersfield - 44 24 - Rotherham
Rotherham v MILLWALL STOKE v HUDDERSFIELD Swansea (15th) v QPR Sunderland (12th) v BLACKBURN PLYMOUTH v Bristol City (13th) Middlesborough (10th) v SHEFF WEDS
On paper this is a way less good set of fixtures than Good Friday was. Teams playing each other, no opposition above 10th. But Friday was going shit until it wasn't.
What's good though is that all the teams below us are having pretty dismal form. But if Birmingham and Hudds win and we lose we are right back in the mix, even more than we currently are.
A week later and we're no worse off than before, really. The bottom five remains the same with us a point above Hudds and now also a point clear of Brum.
Good Friday or as QPR call it 'Probably Shit Friday'
Millwall vs West Brom (5th) Blackburn vs Ipswich (3rd) Norwich (6th) vs Plymouth Hull (7th) vs Stoke QPR vs Birmingham Huddersfield vs Coventry (8th) Sheff Weds vs Swansea (15th)
Everyone who matters is playing a top 8 side and Birmingham's form is dogshit.
Feels like this should be a good day for us if we can just figure out how to convert more of these chances we've been making.
Easter Monday
Rotherham vs Millwall :( Sunderland vs Blackburn Plymouth vs Bristol City Stoke vs Huddersfield (hmm!) Swansea vs QPR Birmingham vs Preston Middlesborough vs Sheffield Weds
Not quite as good as Millwall and one of Stoke/Hudds will probably win.
Tonight Birmingham vs Boro - Boro on the back of two wins, Brum no win in 4. Hopeful.
Saturday Birmingham vs Watford - Watford in shit form, hoping Brum are knackered by the weekend. Worried. Ipswich vs Sheff Weds - Ipswich in third and looking to rectify a loss last game. Hopeful. Boro vs Blackburn - not arsed. I feel like Blackburn will escape but they are in shit form. Hopeful. Plymouth vs Preston - Plymouth in bad form. Hopeful. Rotherham vs Huddersfield - most worried about this one . Hudds to win. That said, at least they've stopped that freaky voodoo bullshit where they win when we win. Worried. Stoke vs Norwich - pretty hopeful but Stoke have two wins in three. Hopeful. Sunderland vs QPR - five losses in a row but the Boil c*nt has gone. Charity Park Rangers to the rescue? Long trip to the shitty North East? Smells like defeat. But equally we are the finest football team etc etc. Worried.
Brentford are just four points ahead of Everton who are bottom three (albeit with a game in hand). In fact, without the Everton points deduction it just be three ahead of Luton who are arguably in better form than Brentford.
I don't think they'll go down but it's definitely a possibility. Toney might be the difference there if he can keep out of trouble.
I think I'd be happy enough with Everton taking that last relegation place (Burnley and Sheff Utd are toast) but Brentford would be pretty good too. Apart from the fact that they'll bum us in the gob twice if they come down and we somehow stay up.
I just found this lot. Havana 3am. Had a minor hit with the song below which is a great mix of surf, rockabilly and that sort of Clash reggae sound.
Also, that's Paul Simenon on bass.
And... XC-NN. This band had a little bit of notoriety in the early 90s. That's Tim Bricheno on guitar, he was in All About Eve. This is a GREAT song though and the singer absolute kills on it. What a great performance. They should have been bigger.
Funnily enough I only went to one match last year and it was that win over Watford. I think that qualifies me, mojo-wise, to start this thread.
Watford. Currently 11th. Won their last two. Thing is, THEY'RE STILL F**KING WATFORD and, when it comes to QPR, I'M TIRED OF OUR SHIT.
1-0 to the Rs. Not sure I believe it but I'm manifesting it. Noel Edmonds style. Ask the universe. Just like last time. Hey Universe, give me three points and make it scrappy.
How do you think we will do? I don't watch L1 at all and couldn't tell you fk all about that bullshit but that's where we are headed. I've gone through denial and anger. I'm at acceptance now.
What's the standard there these days?
If we kept this sorry bunch of hooped c**ts would we do alright down there?
