  1. Mowbray is a good manager, they would struggle to find someone who is better with a team full of kids. Apart from Adam Johnson obviously
  2. Thought about this a lot in the last few years, both cancer diagnoses made me think I was a goner. And I sat with my dad while he took his last breath. Im generally comfortable with it being like a light switch turning off and that’s it. I don’t think people are generally afraid of being dead, they are afraid of how they will die. Will it hurt etc. and worry for the people they are going to leave behind, for the last week or so while he was campos mentis my dad tried spent his time telling me where his money was and how to access it, passwords for accounts etc. so I could sort it all for my mam. It’s a strange way to spend the last few days of your life but it give him some comfort I suppose
  3. Paul Scholes should be on that list for tonguing off his daughters toes as well the wrong un.
  4. The big problem with VAR and refereeing is that all referees are nerdly little spenks who got bullied at school. Every single one of them watch their lass get fucked by another bloke.
  5. Outstanding from the entire team. The games against Dortmund cost us, but no blame for anyone involved. I think we end up in the europa league but still so proud of the every single player and staff
  6. Saying this with 7/8 minutes left. The lads are knackered but fuck me have they put their balls into this. So proud of all of them, no matter what happens.
  7. Miley is fucking mind blowing. 17 years old, fucker is playing like he is 27 and a seasoned international
  8. The good news is there is glue remover to help you. The bad news is you still need to scrape it all off with a wallpaper scraper
  9. Would be a real shame if tickets ended up in the hands of tourists and the atmosphere died e.g. Man City. Im not a regular like some of the lads on here but I’ve been going semi regular for 20 years and not had a sniff of a ticket all season
  10. Playing a big part for an Eddie Howe team playing good football, and he goes home to his lasses massive bangers. I would be buzzing too
  11. Just seen big Joe’s goal again, hahah. It’s like a kid who can’t play football being put through on goal. He’s tried to hammer it and spacka footed it into the wrong corner. Love him so much
  12. She’s looking for a way out as well tbh, the politics like Gemmil said. She loves teaching and working with the kids but all the bullshit she has to do man, including working a full week at clearing on the phones like a salesman trying to get kids to join courses despite the uni having a recruitment team. She has a masters and is nearly finished her PhD and she’s working in a call centre Couple more years when the mortgage is gone and she can go and do community work with troubled kids or something that she will actually enjoy, and it will save me the ear ache of her moan at me for an hour as soon as she’s through the door
  13. Doesn’t get any better in higher education, our lass is a university lecturer and it’s just as bad. She gets paid pretty well but if I worked out her hourly rate it would be either hilarious/depressing. Also she is starting to get the kids who had 2 years at home through covid and they are all backwards apparently
  14. Wrong skin tone but not bad tbh. I think @LongTimeAdmirer probably looks a bit like And @LongTimeAdmirer can have a go at @Ayatollah Hermione
  15. One international break and you are all stalking each other on Facebook like housewives. Shame
