  1. Quite right, Howe's nothing but a chancer, taking credit for a team doing OK only after Steve Bruce had laid down the solid foundations. Talking of the Corbridge cabbage heed, he would suit the FA down to the ground. Play 85 minutes with 10 men behind the ball then have have a proper go in the last 5. Like for like really.
  2. I was trying to not mention Anthony Gordon as I am admittedly very biased after watching him play fantastically all season for my home club. But, as the superb Cole Palmer changed things whenever he was brought on during the competition, we could have had the same thing on the left with Gordon. Those 2 changes with Toney or Watkins on 60 minutes and we could have been battering the opposition. In regard to Bellingham and Foden, another Lampard/Gerrard conundrum.

    Obesity.

    I try to avoid using public transport whenever possible but took a chance yesterday as I was heading into town and intending to have a drink, given that England were playing the only taxi drivers working would be foreigners and too far to walk. Tyne & Wear metro. So many fat lasses. Once into town, so many fat lasses. In the pubs, so many fat lasses. OK, there have always been chubby people around, and I am no Brad Pitt (not so much these days anyway) nothing wrong with that, but a bizarre number of young people, mostly female, that were of... well, as has been said, space hopper proportio
  4. For decades a common thread during usual the post - mortem after another England fail is that we need to learn from the countries that are beating us. The Germans, the French etc. What are they doing differently to us? It always used to be youth development. Everyone else was better at that than us. That can no longer be the reason. Young talent is recognised at an early age now, nurtured, developed and protected surely? Yes most of our players still ply their trade at home but have come through the ranks or been scouted or bought by EPL clubs that are some of the wealthiest in the world
  5. One last request, Why Aye Man. I still believe our Anthony Gordon will make the difference.
  6. Could someone with better IT skills than myself post Bowie, Changes?
  7. We was lucky to have shoes on our feet and coats on our backs, how the other half must have lived.
  8. From lesbians to Mods via non-ped whippets, gotta love THL.
  9. Thank you for the reply. Cheers.
  10. Why the sad emoji reaction Mackem? Only asking as you appear to be a well travelled man who writes interesting and intelligent posts. Just curious.
  11. I wish you lads all the best with your fight. When it's gone it's gone, and then they take more. Cracking looking smooth Fox Terrier.
  12. You make a good point. I would rent or get a camper van to experience the real day to day existence of living in such a place for a few months before buying. However much I love those remote places it would probably be step too far. But it is nice to know that it would be possible for me if I chose to do so. Rural France is looking ever more appealing. Beautiful countryside with a temperate climate in a location where a stroll into the village for a decent meal and bottle of wine is always an option or a few hour drive to the nearest city for something a bit livelier or cultural. I'm dead
  13. I can see a suitcase ban on the horizon.
  14. Blowing the dust off some old classics.
  15. Apparently it's been on the oldest Italian estate agent, Gimmie Shelter books for a very long time. Listed as it's Only rock(s) and Roll(ing views), Richard's has never never accepted a below value offer as Time is on his Side. It has the potential to be Paint(ed) Black.
  16. I wouldn't like to play poker with Southgate. Very clever or very lucky? We'll find against the Spanish. GET IN!
  17. Get in the black, stay out of the red, everyone bullshits and is found out when they're dead.
  18. You've sold it to me by Tempted I always seem to enjoy films with contemporary songs rather than score from Apocalypse Now's mesmeric The Doors, The End opening to Jo Jo Rabbit's joyful Bowie's Helden end scene. Quentin Tarantino being the master of course, to this day I cannot hear Steelers Wheel, Stuck in the Middle without picturing that scene.
  19. That's how types developed and still are being developed to this day for function. I think we get lost at times with a modern development called the Kennel Club were a finite number of animals where judged to be worthy of registration as proper examples of the breed, the gene then pool closed, and forever after bred within the closed gene pool to a breed standard of physical type. Always doomed to failure.
  20. Probably not asking for advice on a hunting forum would be good advice Find a reputable financial advisor. The 1st question they will ask is how much are prepared to lose? They build a plan around that. No magic money making formula.
  21. Well, just goes to show once again that I know bugger all. Well done Saka, even though I lost track of which positions he was playing in, due to my ignorance of the game. Well done Southgate. Well done England!
  22. Come as You Are - Nirvana. Blasting out in a funeral parlour.
  23. We was f****d and now we are proper f****d. The last Prime Minister to be democratically voted in was Boris. Then we got Truss then the last clown by default. Before that Blair got voted in but Brown and Prescott got the power. The back stabbing knives will already be being sharpened and how long before Corbyn or Abbot becomes the PM of our great country? Au revoir mon ami
  24. ... and ont Sunday our Muthas's and our Fatha's would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah...
