  1. So that’s why they always overtake at 1mph faster than the other coach? You learn something new every day
  2. I can remember you posting about her starting a new job (in a bank?) after leaving uni (I think) and now she’s mid-30s ffs. Looks like they both take after their mam too luckily
  3. Had a couple a nights away in Keswick, got back yesterday morning. As is often the case I usually wake up at daft o’clock when I’m not at home in my own bed. Preoccupied with thoughts of today’s match and one of my best and oldest mates, whose dad has days to live. Anyway, I decided to go for a long walk to clear my head so did the Newlands Round from Little Town. I even had a chat with a fellow Newcastle fan at the top of Catbells. Nice day for it anyway. Howay the fucking lads
  4. I like him on both comedy and political panel shows. He’s got the political elite absolutely sussed and isn’t afraid to call them out. He does seem to inhabit a sort of pointless area of academia now but I’d class it as harmless. It’s like a type of high art like ballet that I have no time for but has its place. The aforementioned cunts he calls out are on a different plane when it comes to their cuntery though. I quite like his intellectual pretentiousness too. I read one of his books ages ago and I can’t even remember it now beyond one of the characters fantasising about decapitating people then fucking their neck stump. Agree with SpongeBob about Shooting Stars too
  5. Decent manager / coach. But seems like a decent lad too. Nee bullshit / edge about him, pretty honest, hardworking etc
  6. Why’s he a cunt? Out of interest
  7. By any reasonable measure Mowbray is doing a good job as well.
  8. Also nailed on that Francois relived the scene at home later, in front of the mirror. In full military regalia. Only this time he chinned Self
  9. I saw that live at the time. Self didn’t really do himself any favours by staring him down but it’s typical Francois in that he’d shit his fucking pants if it was just the two of them, not live on tv etc
  10. They're desperate for him to be the new Ferguson like. With all this building a dynasty shit. Agree about Rashford. Likewise if Ronaldo hadn’t done that interview
  11. Jesus wept! Really? Too perpetual this place
  12. The were 3 down when I went to bed. Safe to say this is not what I expected to see when I checked the score this morning. Brook is shaping up to be a superstar
  13. I have similar feelings about Starmer as I feel he could be far braver. But I just saw a piece on the BBC news about his giving a speech in Bury. The tone of the it was that Bury was a place Starmer still had to win over. Opinion polls point to the Tories getting 20-odd % in both Bury constituencies with Labour expected to get close to 60%. Not really a defence of the bloke as I’ve grown increasingly disillusioned with his ultra safe approach. But fuck me, the mainstream media narrative still presents the next GE as being somehow in the balance. In a way you can understand the caution against that backdrop
