  1. Govt advisors saying AI could bring end of humanity within two years. Given their record I’m pretty reassured
  2. Eldest and mates are going. He’ll see a message in hour. Any tips for them to get back to SiL’s at Worsley after?
  3. Feck it, take a rotavator to the lawn (dying in the drought anyhow) and go Tom Good for Xmas
  4. Front page of Telegraph, study says 1700 Covid deaths prevented by lockdown. Hope that is disproven as more dying from late diagnosis of cancer.
  5. Looks like I’m oop north next weekend. Anywhere decent to watch the CL final not full of Bolton Reds? Be in Smithills, are any of the pubs on Halliwell still open?
  6. Wasn’t City that stopped that. It started with the change from splitting gate receipts, then Sky deal and Champions league reinforced the cartel. FFP brought in to protect the G14 from nasty outside investment
  7. Bit of a skewed question. City and Newcastle would be mid table Premiership without outside investment. I really have no problem with City, Newcastle and Chelsea before them. Their owners have invested to break the cartel set up All the shite from the ‘istree clubs about earning positions is complete garbage. Arsenal raped Huddersfield to get to the top, Liverpool paid record fees in second division to get platform for the Moore’s money to outbid everyone else. Rogers mob traded of grief of Munich and brilliance / celebrity of Best to become biggest club followed by plastics everywhere. Bournemouth is probably the most obvious over inflation of position by out of scale investors, which would be Ali. To it happening to you or us.
  8. We had nightmare this year as club extended family zone into block 8 (opposite corner to aways) so ended up with lots of kids in vicinity. They’ve been moved to the cheap seats next season to left of away end.
  9. Not just the big clubs is it. Do you think Wanderers is better atmosphere with the 13k regulars or when it’s full with family day trippers?
  10. …and yet the can outbid Swansea and Birmingham with an offer too good to turn down for our striker Ennis. Crazy messed up league we’re in now
  11. Talking of superb gigs anybody seen “the padded seat” reels where bloke tries out all the hospitality suites around country?
  12. All about the limbs and scenes innit. Selling the dream to kids who force a celebration holding a phone up unlike pre Taylor report and CCTV
  13. Football needs a serious rethink on attitude to officials. Way things are going won’t be able to get grass roots games played
  14. QotSA saved me from a night with Elton! Hoping Mr Grohl is in town to drum with them and help Axl out on vocals, although maybe Leftfield at that slot. Might mean Foos are Churnups rather than Pulp, which clashes with Courteneers.
  15. Mrs saw Pink at Cardiff Millennium stadium last time out. Said best concert ever but I reckon it was the amount of HRT patches in da house swung it. She’s got bleddy Coldplay in couple of weeks there and won’t sell when tell her tickets going for over 300 quid. She can’t name one song after second album
  16. Not till 24/5. Up to 5 games at 1230 on Saturday
  17. Good article by Martin Samuel who’s about only journalist not writing solely for ‘istree clubs armchair fans clicks https://archive.ph/DQWCr Another week passes and tumbleweed continues to blow around the Manchester United takeover. It’s like an extraordinarily dull episode of Succession, with characters you feel guilty rooting for, but minus the witty dialogue, high-stakes drama or a compelling narrative. Who do you want to win, the greedy American venture capitalists, the Qatari billionaire that nobody had heard of until two months ago, or the boyhood fan in Sir Jim Ratcliffe who was so inspired by United’s glorious past he bought a season ticket at Chelsea and a football club in France?
  18. Sporting side of me says Wednesday after 96 points, the football fan says Barnsley more likely to struggle next season and we may need them to be one of the three to finish below us
  19. Need to get my act together for “At the edge of the sea” next year.
  20. Take her Disney Paris and have two other decent holidays for same money.
  21. Eh, holds 54k now with the next end expansion taking it to 60K. They’ll easily piss FFP from now on with Academy producing 100M / season sales
  22. Coaches from Plymouth, Exeter and Cornwall very home game all full of ST holders
  23. Pretty much all your examples are movement of labour not the loss of it altogether.
