Don’t want to be a dick but surely your best bet would be to type your requirements into google, pay for the shed and get someone to deliver it. I’m not sure what a football measageboard has to offer in this department.

A good number of them certainly do. It isn’t hard to imagine that a sudden obscene level of financial investment from the Middle East would make fans feel more detached from the team they have spent their lives supporting.

Yes. If they have to. If the public is at risk, the police are supposed (in the public's mind) to put themselves in the firing line, even at risk to themselves; within the upper echelons of the police force, that attitude is less prevalent and they are much more likely to have the attitude "so...

Is it police protocol for unarmed officers to tackle knife-wielding lunatics? Easy to call this man a coward, but at the end of the day he is a human being with a family, like the rest of us.

We could learn a lot from the Huddersfield fans yesterday. They were super loud boisterous and maintained the same level of support throughout the game irrespective of the scoreline and the fact they only had two shots on goal, one less than us. I didn’t hear a peep from them in the period between ...

Rileybobs

We’re too slow to take them which allows the other team to get set, and teams know that if they get tight to our players then we will give away possession. Also, our throw accuracy is poor and often makes things difficult for the receiver. On the flip side, we seem to let other teams take throw ins ...

Rileybobs

I noticed the passing statistic. Appalling at this level. We can’t play when teams press us, something only Defour and to a lesser extent Hendrick have in their locker. What was more disappointing is that we didn’t bother to close down Huddersfield with anywhere near the intensity they did to us.

Rileybobs

4 points in 1 week. That’s championship winning form.

Rileybobs

Showed more composure on the ball than our other two midfielders today. I’m a bit surprised Dyche didn’t bring him on for Barnes and go 4-5-1 as the system clearly wasn’t working.

Rileybobs

Taylor has very little PL experience, probably why he is targeted, add to this Lennon is by no means a natural left-sided defensive midfielder. I think it’s clear why Taylor is targeted and hopefully with experience he will improve. If Ward is fully fit he’d be nailed on to be in my starting 11 tho...

Rileybobs

Not sure about the relevance of our players trying to halt the break by fouling them but the second part of your post is a fair point. Not sure how them being wired up works and it depends on what the lino said but if the lino did call out a head injury then it was terrible reffing. If he didnt the...

Rileybobs

Don’t like this witch hunt against a player but him and Lennon were targeted relentlessly. They don’t seem to defend well as a pair and their poor positioning is gifting far too much space to the opposition. Is Ward injured our just out of favour?

Rileybobs

Just on the head injury one Huddersfield broke quick and the ref had to sprint up the other end of the pitch and therefore couldnt really see what the situation was behind him. As soon as the move broke down and the play turned around the Linesman could get the refs attention for him to stop the ma...

This isn't the first time I've seen someone elude to Marney's departure, but nobody ever seems to say what he's supposed to have done or said. What did I miss? I’m pretty sure he said something along the lines of him personally not being in a happy place. Considering he had a very long break with i...

Rileybobs

Just to add - the standard of referreing is terrible in this country. There are a handful of good refs who tend to get the bigger, and often televised games, whilst teams like us have to put up with inept performances more often than not.

Rileybobs

Very poor. He handled Schindler’s head injury appallingly and he should be reprimanded for allowing play to continue despite obviously knowing the severity of the injury.

Rileybobs

Not sure about lack of effort, but there’s definitely a lack of intensity. Huddersfield looked fitter and sharper than us and in many ways their intense pressing was the main contributing factor in our inability to string three passes together. Worrying signs, but we have a 2 week break and we know ...

Rileybobs

Yes of course, but in terms of numbers you are dealing with thousands here, the example dsr mentioned are relatively low numbers, shops, leisure centres ect. How would the number of people using the toilets make a difference to you from a privacy point of view? Of course, it becomes less practical ...

Rileybobs

Same applies to changing rooms in leisure facilities and shops. Apart from the fact that there are still people who prefer nudity and partial nudity to be same sex only, mens' toilets take up less space than ladies', and ladies' take up less space than disabled. If all toilets are full disabled acc...

I wouldn't be comfortable holding it & the idea of the opposite sex (stranger wise) being in the same room doesn't appeal to me, everyone's different of course doesn't make me right or wrong, I take it you are keen on the idea? You would be holding it in a different cubicle. Can’t see the issue...

Is everyone else missing the point or am I?

What's the issue with gender-neutral toilets? Plenty of restaurants, bars, cinemas etc. have them.

Well we went up and eventually stayed up. And he went up and stayed up. So yes. I am. His record and ours shows that was more likely than not. And certainly more likely than going down.

Having already agreed the terms with Silva before asking Watford for permission to speak with him OK. So how do you suppose Dyche should get job offers?

Rileybobs

Let me think....because they made an illegal approach which in turn unsettled him causing him to become disillusioned at the club and ended up with him at loggerheads at the watford board because after Evertons approach they refused him permission to talk with them.

I’m pretty sure it’s against Premier League rules to offer the manager of another club a job. Not that it has any relevance to Dyche’s quality as a manager.

He’s made a practically flawless start to his Burnley career. Kudos to him.

Rileybobs

We can’t afford to play that poorly again this season. Luckily we were against a very very poor side and in fairness, most of their chances were very scrappy and we couldn’t clear our lines. Still, onwards and upwards and the three points are massive in the context of the season.

Rileybobs

Disappointing, but that's football. We played a strong side and should have won the game, these things happen.

Also my favourite ever player, but I think he'd struggle to get into any of the current Premier League sides.
