Like tossing off?

We did that one with the 4 letters and one with earth, air, wind and fire and some other ones.It was quite interesting in certain parts but a bit farty in others. Its a good deal for me cos its a path to management and we get a couple days/nights away from work in a nice hotel with a free bar. Got 3 more over the course of the year, I will keep you informed of my cock ups.

Been on a management course with work this week. It's run by a woman who is some kind of head doctor. Had to do all these personality tests, but I read the directions wrong, so like where you are meant to put 1 as strongly disagree and 5 as strongly agree or whatever, I did it the wrong way round. There were 12 of us and she split us into 4 groups based on answers we gave, I was on me tod.. She probably has me pegged as a mental or something now. Will probably ride it out and see how it goes

Well done mate, chemo is a lonely place. Glad you are done with it.

Can't see this coming back to bite you in the arse at all. What a strange thing to take from that match as well. -

Think the way the results went yesterday, if we win this and the Sunderland game we should be right back in it. -
Aye, what do you think I'm doing in this thread?
-
what if the free kick is in the opposition half but is still going to lumped in the box? Does he have the same starting position as when the ball is coming in from near the corner flag?
-
Which keepers don't start getting a game until their mid twenties? Hart, Valdez, de Gea, loris, given, ter stegan, courtois, neuer all playing regularly by 25, as was Krul
-
Darlow just turned 25, has had one season (I think) as a first team regular. Getting dropped last season after oddly not "commanding" his box enough when dealing with crosses. Krul missing is a massive blow whichever way you look at it.
-
Should the keeper position himself 6 yards out for all free kicks or just the one you remember us conceding from? If goalkeeping is as easy as being six yards out and getting to the ball before the attacker, why don't games always end 0-0? I can't be arsed to go into all the reasons you are wrong, but believe me, you are, regularly and spectacularly.
-
World class goalkeepers like De Gea can make a massive difference despite playing in a bad team. Good goalkeepers rely on their team as much as their team relies on them. Krul is a good goalkeeper, admittedly not playing at his best, in a bad team. People always talk about confidence for strikers, the same is even more applicable to goalkeepers tbh, one small mistake that an outfielder player would get away with will probably lead to a goal being conceded if made by a goalkeeper.
-
Didn't it come out yesterday that the NHS is running a billion pound deficit? Coincidentally the day after the Tory conferefence finished?
-
Yeah a relatively untried keeper who hasn't played in the prem or Rob Elliot. Definitely couldn't do worse than an experienced international goalkeeper.

EVERYONE. LOOK AT ME! IM AN ODDBALL..

I got this last week for my xboxone. Played last years after a break since probably 98. I got Pogba in one of my free packs so sold him and have built basically the Barca team, minus Iniesta, Messi, Suarez and Neymar. I have never played a game online (haven't played any of my Xbox games online tbh) but if any of you fancy a game/battering me, PM me and I will try and add you if I can figure it out.

Aye

Canny mood today. First decent nights sleep since we got the puppy. She is alternating between an angel and a terror but if I can get some kip it all seems a lot easier.
