Fk that!! I'm with Virgin Media and paying around £25 (IIRC) or maybe slightly less for 350Mbps. Been with them for donkey's years so maybe that's helped. However, maybe your location and lack of alternatives is driving up the price?
NB: nowt to do with Branson anymore, he sold it about 20 years ago. |

I think we, as fans, need to be mindful of the injury situation and not go OTT if results don't go our way. The team just needs to, again, get this season over the line to safety. |

ah, so it's the captain that's Russian? OK, didn't know that yesterday!
But yes, in the current climate having a ship captained by a Russian and hitting a stationary ship containing fuel for the US military does look suss but proving it's intentional could be hard, if it was. |

March was always going to be tough and it's got tougher with injuries.
April is key. We have 5 games we can get at least 8 points from IMO. 52 points should be enough. We finished last season (and that was a crap season) on 56 points. It would be a shame if we had less this season but December-to-February aside, it's been worse. |

March was always going to be tough. Two wins in April and we should be ok. |

That's quite a leap. Russia has a big naval tradition and not every Russian is a criminal or linked to Putin just in the same way as not every US citizen is a MAGA loving Trumpite or every British person a Johnson/Sunak/Truss fanboy/girl etc etc.
Boats often have crew from all over the world on them, not just from where the boat is registered to/operates from.
If the Kremlin was involved, do you think they'd make it that obvious. |

Ditto Bobby Zamora.
Let's put 'that' goal aside..... by and large his record was pretty poor. 12 goals in 83 games.... 1 goal in 7.
IIRC, pretty much all of the four goals (21 games) he got in the 2012/13 PL season were in losing matches so they contributed nothing in terms of points (though, TBF, crap defending is not his problem I guess).
Not good on the whole and certainly not for the huge amount of money he was paid but 'that' goal gives him immunity I guess! |

IIRC, Cureton kept being played out wide. IMO he was a fox-in-the-box striker. I was quite excited when we bought him as he had a good record with Bristol Rovers and Reading but only scored 6 goals in 43 games for us.
Does anyone else think the same... that he was played too far wide? |

Bingo!
By the way, just who are the suggestions aimed at? No one on here can do anything.

I googled it;
“while a suggestion can sometimes be based on an opinion, making a suggestion is not exactly the same as stating an opinion; a suggestion is a proposed course of action or idea, while an opinion is a personal belief or viewpoint about something, which may or may not be accompanied by a suggested action.
Key differences:
Action-oriented:
A suggestion is actively proposing a solution or idea to be considered, whereas an opinion is simply a personal view without necessarily advocating for a specific action.
Open to debate:
While opinions can be debated, a suggestion is often presented as a potential solution to a problem, leaving room for discussion and acceptance or rejection.”
You did not give an opinion, you made a suggestion but you like to sugar coat it as an opinion. |

You were suggesting what the manager should do, that’s not an opinion. |

One shot is disappointing but that’s all it took in the play off final.
Liverpool had two the other night and won. |

"I have friends at IFAB, I used to play for them you know, top striker I was too. No one was better than me. I'm sure as one-off in the heat we can accommodate 30 mins. I'm here to do a deal. I can play the accordion as well...." |

IIRC offside was brought in to stop goal hanging. Last night the goal was ruled out because a PSG and Liverpool player were standing next to each other facing away from goal and the PSG player just happened to lift his foot meaning his heel was now 'offside'. Sorry, but that's not what it's about, that goal should have stood.
Football is a game where goals are to be scored, that's the primary objective.
That's why strikers are generally the highest paid, are the fans favourite, win the awards and so on.
Players & fans enjoy goals, players & fans watch the game for goals but the authorities seem hell bent on doing everything they can to stop this. It's weird.
That aside, a real smash 'n grab and fair play to Allison who had a corker.

According to google half time is 12 minutes for a regular NFL game, except the Super Bowl which is 25-30 minutes.
Expect the same. |
