Trophyshy did an updated version last time he was at the match

Tremendous second half that. Especially given the outcome

Reminds me of the time I caused bother on there for posting that picture saying what page Dumbledore died on

I think it was Jello Biafra that compiled a list of imaginary punk/hardcore band names and they were all real bands within a few years. Iirc it was all variations on things like Desolate Youth, Wasted Youth and stuff like that

At the time it was reported that it was a much better deal for Australia. There’s a similar one with NZ too iirc. And it was only hastily arranged so that the government could announce a deal had been struck. They really are the worst combination of corruption and incompetence imaginable.

I think he was suggesting you’d be naive enough to buy one

There was low odds of this joke being made

It was more in response to people (seemingly to me at least) suggesting Miley’s age meant he wouldn’t suffer from fatigue as much. There are obvious advantages to being so young but downsides too, things like still growing and not having the built up the stamina levels of someone used to playing 30+ premier league games in a season. There’s probably mental fatigue too when you’ve give from never having played at that level to starting week in, week out. I think there’s a case for him starting tomorrow though as Longstaff looks a shadow of the player he was last season and is said to be carrying an injury

Look, he was one of the best players in League One at some point

I specified ‘male’ in order to stop some bell end saying that but it still didn’t work

He’ll be in the U21 squad

Probably lucky it wasn’t a Margherita with a whole pineapple on top

You can perhaps recover more quickly but I can’t think of many instances where male professional athletes are at their peak in terms of performance levels at that age

Another fabulous assist by Shola (to go with the one for Shearer v Everton)

Ah, toll house. I thought you meant you were now living under a bridge

He did, aye. The absolute Edgelord. He’d be lucky to find any takers mind

He’s the one who would be mates with Toby Young of either of them had any friends 👍🏻

The expansion of the tournament ironically, rather than the format itself* has created the elite players being concentrated in fewer clubs. *appreciate that’s a bit chicken and egg, but there used to be two group stages the last time we were in it.

As to the other point, even the inaugural tournament in 55-56 was played over two legs until the final.

Shows how well the mackems are doing on their budget when you think that, as recently as the autumn, they’d have given these sides a good game

Rod Liddle is such a fucking cunt. Which is also inarguable

It’s fucking mental where they’re now at the point where they’re having to go on national tv and defend blatant racism. And the only mitigation is the bloke they're defending said sorry after a particular unpleasant example of his racist behaviour was made public. And they’re only doing it because he’s their biggest donor. They are so fucked

It blew my mind a bit (despite being aware of the distances / sizes involved) when Brian Cox did this on tv. It’s a really good way of illustrating the vast emptiness of space (even just within our own solar system).

Really sorry to hear about your news @Dr Gloom fingers crossed for your mother-in-law x
