I'm not sure its a case of not being able to play 3 games a week, it is more than the intensity you are expected to play at so much more these days with all the high pressing etc that goes on. So yes you can play, but at the required level of intensity?
Cycling is an interesting one and clearly is a gruelling sport, but even the TDF features many stages where most seem to ride at a very comfortable pace until a mad dash at the end which most of them don't get involved in anyway. |

Scott Sellers back in the 90s and maybe Clive Mendonca. Also Ian Wright who was plucked from non league by Palace.
David Platt (not the skinny hairdresser bloke in Corrie) is another that springs to mind.
As for hadn't, Gus Caesar, Dominic Iorfa, Joey Barton. [Post edited 19 Jan 23:44]

I used to play pool and darts in after work competitions. We used to joke about the "alcoholic peak" after maybe 3 or 4 pints where you would play better for a bit due to less nerves. It didn't last long though and form would deteriorate after another drink or two.
A snooker 147 is incredibly difficult. A mate was a very good player who spent a lot of his time in the local snooker hall. He managed a century break once or twice I think but nowhere near a 147. Just try and put any kind of break together on a full size snooker table, it is so hard. I was not a bad pool player but never got much past 20 or 30 at snooker.
Given the time it takes to score a 147 and the ability required to control many positional shots over an extended period, I'd say its harder than a 9 darter although that too is a tremendous achievement.
As mentioned above, you can fluke a hole in one so I would say that is the easiest of the 3. |

Ipswich will go, probably Leicester too.
Spurs are decimated by injuries especially in defence. They will improve if they get players back. Everton always get out of it and will again. |

My dad was a regular in Harlesden Labour club when I was a kid. We were often there too and a coke/lemonade and some crisps kept us happy. As mentioned, a place many went to forget the stresses of everyday life and work.
Other clubs in the area we also visited but less often were Harlesden Working man's club (known locally as "up the steps"), the railway club and the welsh club. As kids it was always enjoyable especially at Christmas when they would have great parties and give us good presents.
My dad still goes to St Gabriels club in South Harrow. Even in my 20s when I thought I was too cool for such places, it was great for a late lock in after being out somewhere else earlier. Last time I was there in 2016 we left after 4am on a Monday morning and they seemed to have no concerns about sending us home before that! |

Everyone in football is a data analyst these days.
I keep looking at Luton and thinking they have to be better than their league position suggests, so it might not be the risky move it seems if he pulls them together. |

The Varane goal was a belter and Kolli took his very well.
Btw did anyone see the goal Lyndon Dykes scored for Birmingham? Ok, not the strongest opposition but a cracker of goal. |

Its 100% happening and getting worse, whether or not you believe humans are responsible for it. |
