  1. In a sensational turn of events it would appear that Bellingham is shite again
  2. Aye. It’s looking grim but not quite done yet as their GD is still much better.
  3. They’re getting beat 4-0 at home already. Farsley are winning 1-0. Unless I’m mistaken though, you’re not quite right and there’s a glimmer of hope. If Farsley lose then Blyth could still stay up on GD I think.
  4. The size of him compared to the wave, man. That place is meant to regularly have the biggest waves in the world, isn’t it? Whenever I’ve seen footage (probably because the winter / spring storm season is the best time for huge waves) the water looks almost black. Scary as fuck
  5. Could you not put him up in NZ?
  6. Well he can bloody well bugger off and live there then. Oh, shit! No, he can’t
  7. Paraphrasing here but, in their review of The Pig and Whistle, The Burglar’s Dog described the place as being full of lads with same £5 haircut as Steven Taylor. And with the same look on their face Taylor had when he realised the ref hadn’t bought his attempt to conceal the handball in the infamous home game v Villa.
  8. They’re so bereft of ideas they’re basically continuing to pursue a culture war they’ve already lost. They’ve got nothing to offer to virtually anyone anymore. Couple that with the uncaring arrogance (I don’t think Sunak gives a fuck about the long term effects on the Tory party even) and you’ve got a zombie government slouching towards their inevitable autumn Armageddon. It’s morbidly fascinating in a way
  9. Absolutely ridiculous. Magpies are not water birds
  10. There was a similar thing a while back that was meant to a leaked security services one iirc
  11. Was Mystic Keg the nickname manc-mag gave to Stevie (in light of his unpredictable predictions)?
  12. Especially when the margins were so tight in the ties Arsenal and Man City lost
  13. Been reading too much of the Mail probably
  14. He’s got a hip injury and out of contract at the end of the season anyway I think. It’s the same issue that saw the loan cut short. But currently on Everton’s books, aye
  15. Also, the bookies have October - December 2024 as the red hot favourite for the General Election date. Theoretically it could be Tuesday 28th January 2025. Imagine that? If you want my personal, cynical opinion, it’s not happening until after the summer as so many of the Tory party look set to lose their seats regardless and they won’t want the facade of having to campaign to interfere with their four weeks in Tuscany or whatever.
  16. Would like to see him resurrect his career. But when I read that I thought it’s something he should have kept to himself. It’s not exactly realistic given how little football he’s played recently.
  17. It’s grade II listed and there aren’t many parks outside London that are iirc. Leazes Terrace is grade I listed so that isn’t getting touched. So although it’s not Grade I listed, being a park and the rarity of that makes it less straightforward than if it was a grade II listed building. But I think you have a point with Leazes Park that could work in favour of the club. I think they would only have to slightly encroach on it by expanding the Leazes End. I would come at it from the approach of, if they were allowed to do that, restoring the rest of it to its former glory. And making it a green space people could use and is well maintained etc. You’re right about it being in proper poor condition
  18. Legally there’s a minimum of 25 working days from Parliament being dissolved and the election. If one hasn’t been called by 17 December (5 years since the last one) then it would automatically be dissolved and happen 5 weeks after that. So, even if he called one now, it couldn’t take place for five weeks. By convention they take place on Thursdays
  19. Yes. It’s fairly mild imo. At the last election they tried to stay as classy as MLFs. Whilst several different sources later showed the then government to have been misleading in a lot of their statements. Also, she’s still an MP and will likely be after the election. She’s been particularly vocal lately and is cozying up to the extreme right. But, most of all, she was a disastrous prime minister during this reign of the Tory party
  20. JFK coming back just in time for his 107th birthday, presumably to get Cruyff out of the witness protection program
  21. I once had the pleasure of reading a letter she wrote to the PM when she was Foreign Sec. It was full of phrases like ‘maintaining our heft’. I’m sure that PPE course at Oxford teaches them to come out with that shite. Much like that weird way of talking Renton alludes to. It’s like a Tory politicians by numbers course. Whoever the fuck runs it wants shot to shit.
