The Fish

Got a letter a few weeks ago saying I needed to arrange an appointment for a health check. Just assumed it was standard practise for people over 40 so sorted it out for today. But everyone I've spoken to bout it says they've either never had one, or only started having regularly them when they were much, much older. I think I've been mistaken for someone else again, just as I was with the vaccine. They confused/conflated my records with some other bloke who apparently had a transplant, and sickle cell anaemia. Now I'm 80% sure I've not had a transplant, and I know for a fact I don't have sickle cell. Any one on here have an NHS mandated health check at 42?

All I've heard is that it's a permanent deal.

Do Wetherspoons still do 'Curry Club' on Thursdays?

That's a very British thing. Even now, in a lot of pubs you look at the number written on a wooden spoon in sharpie, then go to order your food at the bar realising you've immediately forgotten the number.

My sweet summer child, that is how everybody leaves a Wetherspoons, even on their 100th visit. Don't know what you were trying to say with "exploited inscriptions", and there's no judgement because it's not your first language, however I do intend to use that phrase in the future whenever the mood takes me.

Every night I've been hugging my pillow dreaming dreams of Amarillo and sweet Marie who waits for me

I think in Emil, we've got a 'Break Krafth in case of emergency' RCB and RB. Ritchie, Dummett and Gillespie are surely there for their experience, HG rules and knowledge of the local Wetherspoons. With the extra games, the extra minutes in each game, we should be able to give a lot of the squad way more minutes than we managed previously. Having that depth is a great problem to have. The hope is that we replace Ritchie, Dummett and Gillespie with younger local lads.

BEN PARKINSON

Ben Parkinson, Lewis Miley is a midfielder.

Makes it look nicer doesn't it

Humility is boring, I choose Hubris, I choose Violence.

I meant the striker, sorry.

Who was the young lad who made a few appearances in preseason. fwiw, I think in Isak, Wilson plus Barnes, and Gordon I think we're fine for depth up front. the only place we're really short is RCB.

I'm bookmarking this for whenever someone questions me in the future.

Can't argue with that, clearly game recognises game.

Could have ≠ expect to.

You randy fucker.

We're outperforming our xG.

The way I've read the reports, it's not a loan deal we're ultimately after, it's a permanent transfer. Not sure we can manage that this window without breaking FFP, unless we obfuscate the purchase from the books by doing a loan with an obligation. If that happens the money will be accounted for in next season's books. I'd be delighted with Hall, he's a tremendous prospect, but I'd still rather we were signing a RCB.

Being generous here, maybe he was impressed with Aston Villa because he now expects that high level of performance from Newcastle?

Depends who we're facing I guess. Sometimes Longstaff is the right player to bring on, sometimes it'll be Willock.

Singlehandedly the biggest cause of deforestation in that particular area.
