  1. 4 day weekend means it won't be confirmed til after we play them Lincoln can suffer the new owner bounce.
  2. Softening my stance on Will and Kate after speaking to folk from Arts & Homelessness International, and hearing more about the couples £500m fund to help the homeless, and how they've actually got homeless experienced people and grassroots organisations guiding them on how that money should be spent. Apparently Will himself has been very hands on and as a child along with Harry would be taken to a soup kitchen by Diana without the press and royal hangers on to pitch in and help out. The anti royalist in me is wondering how much good could be done with all the royals cash but I'm chuffed he actually wants to help out in a meaningful way and isn't just donating a token amount to shelter/crisis for it to be lost in admin and directors wages.
  3. About 10yrs ago the stretch through Queens park was the cleanest it had been since records began. Part of the plans for the development at bank street way back before the recession was to re-green the area around the river after it leaves the tunnel under the town centre. Not sure there much point til UU stop filling it with shit.
  4. My dad is in his 70s and bought some Pharrell Williams's Human Race Adidas Stan Smith the other month. He didn't realise they were Pharrell ones they were just cheap simple black trainers at the Adidas outlet near his caravan.
  5. Adidas Originals will be the footwear of choice for footy lads as it's part of the standard attire. Outside of that they're losing money thanks in large part to Kanye West being a huge prick and the fact outside of British football blokes people don't want the same 4 only slightly different suede trainers repeatedly pumped out in various colours as Adidas have done for forever. Despite his awful designs in my 40+ yr old eyes Kanye was massively successful for Adidas and had them relevant to youngsters and fashion bods. Don't think Adidas have been at the forefront of anything sports related probably since the Predator, Nike lead the way (then sketchers copy it) and them owning both Jordan and Converse helps keep them on top.
  6. both full backs not good enough, dunk not good enough. Englands 1st choice 11 win that game though
  7. Is TAA injured too? Or has he got the hump with southgates staff like Ben White
  8. Are all Englands right backs injured? Doku made Gomez look like a statue
  9. Manc Punk Fest this weekend if you spot a bearded corpse wandering round the stadium on Monday that'll be me
  10. Thought Bolty would be all over New Balance what with them supporting the Trump campaign in 2016.
  11. More thinking from his hotel in Glasgow
  12. 9 months time expect a Romanian lass appearing in the BEN brandishing a DNA test
  13. Aye relegation battle for a young keeper is very much sink or swim. Traf at the minute is sinking maybe next year will be better for him was always a massive gamble for Kompany playing him over the established keeper in Muric.
  14. Doesn't command his box, when playing with Santos that wasn't a problem as he had the box covered, Burnley's defense being at sixes and sevens need their keeper to come claim everything and take control.
  15. The only time Jerome should be coming on is to see the game out, he's shown many times this season that he's very good at that. If we're relying on him to win us a game then we won't be going up.
  16. Norn iron lads were including Dion who should still be at the club getting healthy rather than fucking about travelling for meaningless games.
  17. As far as I remember the money coming in from the Pink gigs was the reason little work on the stadium was done over the past off season, this summer is supposed to see a large bunch of work carried out including stuff out off last year.
  18. Mid season friendlies can get in the bin so I agree with him there.
  19. Can never have too many attachments for the old fistmaster though.
  20. Did you not leave the nippers upstairs and head down to the basement at Cyberdog with Mrs Gonzo?
  21. We were knocking about in Camden on Saturday too. It's gone a bit touristy shite and knock offs galore in recent years but past all that there's some cracking places. Modfather, collectif, Cyberdog (if it's not got a queue like on Saturday), Camden Watch co, Japan Craft and the Gacha shop always get a visit with a stop at Seven Heaven for a crepe and fresh juice. There was a Palestine/Israel protest outside Mornington station on Saturday morning with folk either side of the road. Gone by dinner time with minimal fuss.
  22. Supposed to be uncomfortable as fuck. Some of the styles look better than a lot of repetitive stuff Adidas pumps out. Looked into their collab with Community Clothing but didn't have my size at the time and honestly don't need anymore trainers.
  23. If kit nerds want to pay over the odds for 'player quality' then let them but replica kits shouldn't be more than 50 quid.
