Used to be able to cut straight through that bit of green in there before they put the fence up.
Haven't gone that route for years, they should have warned us so I could walk that route one last time for the memories.... |

Reply | Pub Landlord being sued by Terrorist
at 17:01 18 Dec 2024
Amazing what gets people worked up these days. Some idiot sues someone over something stupid and the Sun feels the need to report it. Any excuse to use the word Terrorist I suppose, will help shift a few copies.
Feel for you Bucks but can't imagine it will go anywhere, maybe you should counter sue for the distress. |

Interestingly, Google just published a study called "project Aristotle' looking into what makes their most successful teams successful. It wasn't that those employees were paid more, or that they were all 'killer' geniuses but rather it was down to what they call Psychological Safety, those employees felt able to take risks, share ideas and make mistakes without fear of negative reprisals.
Treat people well and with respect and you get a reciprocal response.
Probably just woke nonsense though! |

“But it's very QPR to turn the fire on a 23-year-old loaned right back, now playing left back, rather than asking how on earth we've recruited and retained our way into this position.“
I think you may have been banging that drum once or twice over the last few weeks (months)  |

Just ridiculous whining from Norwich. It was a straight red, ref missed it so was retrospectively punished. I thought I read somewhere that it was appealed and they added an extra game ban for that. May have got that wrong though, if true it would also explain the time taken. |

I’m not really sure it’s a debate is it? I was reacting to a post which dismissed human influenced climate change because the climate has always changed! How is that debating anything? Maybe we have different opinions on what a debate is.
On the subject of football, there are some on here who are able to break the game down tactically and present their reasonings in amazing ways that I for one wouldn’t be able to, the higher up the league the wider the gap between my understanding of what’s going on tactically and the top managers understanding. Doesn’t stop me commenting on it but I wouldn’t exactly be on firm ground to tell them where they are going wrong. |

Find it amazing how many people are suddenly experts on subjects they barely made it to secondary school level on. Imagine someone going into their work place daring to tell them how to do there job..
I accept that people should be skeptical especially in complex situations but to hear some people speak its like they are the bloody experts |

The argument should possibly have been framed around energy security rather than human influenced climate change.
Can’t understand why it’s not possible to build better flood defenses. But again it comes down to people not wanting to pay for it.
Anyway, having this Saturdays game called off due to adverse weather wouldn’t be the worst thing, need to get some players back. |

Some pubs are thriving, have adapted to a changing market. Plenty serving a good range of beer and some very decent food. I didn’t used to mind a grotty pub on a football away day but these days I must admit I prefer somewhere I can get a decent lunch before the game |

Are these not exactly the same arguments used when the smoking ban came in initially, didn't work then and won't work now. Can't imagine people smoking indoors now and in a few years it will seem weird to remember people smoking in shared areas like pub gardens as well. |

I can imagine it will depend on the club, we often joke about Man Utds fans not being from Manchester so I can see a time when some of their games are played elsewhere and why a fan actually based in Manchester is more important than a fan based in the Middle East.
But I also think (hope) I will be going to watch the Rangers in 10, 20 and 30 years time. |

Like most things it’s not a one size fits all, this idea of these mass disordered queues self regulating with chaps politely waiting their turn is not the reality I see much, women in the main dislike it and is a big reason why I instead of my Mrs will head to the bar. |

If we had a midfielder that could play on the half turn then defenders could play it through the the middle. At the moment they pretty much know its coming straight back if they play it forward. Generally meaning they get pushed backwards and into trouble.
Hopefully Varane if it happens will be that player |

Reply | BIden v Trump - and we thought our options were poor !!
at 20:25 3 Aug 2024
Well looks like its on, Trump has agreed, providing everything is stacked in his favour. Which is fine, I doubt she will shy away from it. I think Harris as an ex prosecutor will destroy him in a debate especially if he doesn't up his game and switch away from name calling. All he really has after that is lies which Harris will call him out on.
The 'nasty' journalist nearest to him did try to frame every question using statements Trump had made previously as you say to wind him up and get a reaction, is this not exactly what Trump does? The journalist furthest away from him works for Fox, or at least had a lengthy interview with him just prior where she kissed his arse, so was hardly a massively anti trump panel. He should have handled it better! |

Don’t like the guy but can’t deny that he was injured in a shooting incident, normally described as being shot :)
Have to remember he has never won the popular vote and there are fewer boomers left to vote for him this time round, coupled with his approach of calling people names, dumb, nasty, low IQ, even having a go at Jewish people this week isn’t having the same effect as last time. |
