If it was faked then somehow NASA managed to get Jodrell Bank to join in on the conspiracy as well as I was listening to one of their scientists on the radio last week describing how JB tracked Apollo 11 all the way to the moon and the surface and back! They also tracked and un-manned Soviet craft t...

I'm not religious bobinho, so best avoid that one. I just find it hard to believe nobody has been back in 50 years. Such a race to be the first, then nothing. There were 5 more moon landings after Apollo 11, the last was in 1972 and by that time interest in the 'space race' had subsided and the USA...

Well, now I know how proud Sean Dyche feels having a Burnley pub named after him

Got to to be a windup, can't see the players being happy to run around in a shirt like that and certainly can't see any fans buying it!

Vintage Claret

Good choice.
Mine would have been Barnes Wallis or Charles Babbage

The white one with the thin horizontal claret stripes from 2017/18 season I think it was.

Oh, and the jade and black halved one of course

I think the fact it's addressed to "Dear Costumer" is the first clue that it might not be genuine (unless you happen to work in the costume industry)

Went to Hamburg for 3 days/ 4 nights last August-great city. I would recommend one of the 'free' walking tours to get an overview of the City and a bit of it's history and the horrors it encountered during WW2. Also catching a ferry and just going up and down the river for a bit of sightseeing rathe...

Not really shown much interest in the WWC up to now but having watched all of the 1st half so far it's actually quite an entertaining game this.
C'mon Inger-lund!

Sheffield Wednesday away 1st game of the season under Owen Coyle.
Lashed it down all day, we played awful, lost 4-1 I think it was, did get to see the world beater that was Van Der Schafe play though!

Thanks for the replies and advice guys, appreciate it.

Thanks GIADJ, think I'll get it into another garage for a diagnostic and take it from there

Vintage Claret

I have a 57 reg Peugeot 308 and the radiator fan stays on all the time when ignition is on. No related faults, no warning lights on dash and temperature normal. Garage I normally take it to said it may need a dealer ECU update so rang dealers who quoted £90 for 'diagnostics' and another £90 if it di...

Suppose it depends what time of the year it is but coldest I remember at an away game was Gillingham and Rotherham. Turf Moor can be a tad inclement though, think coldest has to be that Saturday game (against Peterborough, I think, Jay Rod got a late equaliser) anyway, freezing sleet was blowing hor...

No, it's definitely not a hoax, the bloke who saw Lionel Messi in Costa Coffee with Sean Dyche at lunchtime signing some kind of papery thing told me.

It's time to start watching videos about how to work things you own. I have. I own a guitar, a mixer tap, a Peugeot 308 and a Windows 10 PC. Thanks for the advice though. If I'm ever halfway through watching a YouTube video on how to work a combine harvester it will help me remember that it's a was...

Vintage Claret

Use it a lot for guitar tutorials. Loads of useful videos on there for novices (like myself) and if there's a certain song you want to learn chances are someone will have done a video showing how to play it. Also learnt how to replace a mixer tap, change bulbs on a Peugeot 308, and get the old compu...

^^This is spot on. What happened to the clear and obvious also? Good question. The offside decision was marginal at best but 'clearly and obviously offside' - no way. I also think that VAR decisions like that give a physcological boost to the team that have 'got away with one' whilst delivering a k...

The thing that strikes me when WW2 veterans talk about WW2 and the D-Day landings especially is how dignified and humble they always are. They don't see themselves as brave heroes, although they undoubtedly were/are and everyone of them deserves our respect and thanks for the job they did and the sa...

Not by Crouch but JW did mention 'Burnley' in the same disparaging way as 'Stoke' after referring to his career with England and Liverpool.

I'm sure they've still enjoyed their cup run, particularly their win in the semi against Wolves. Scratching around near the bottom of the Prem will get boring very quickly for us without the excitement of the odd cup run! Fair point. Still, must be a bit of a kick in the whatsits when you've put so...

On the one hand would love to see us in an FA Cup final.

On the other hand if Watford's experience today is what we have to look forward to when we get there I get why SD doesn't really prioritize a cup run over PL survival

Is that too much to ask?

I've had a "thanks, enjoy the game" off the turnstile staff a few times to be fair, but maybe they were just being polite to their elders

Really?? My nephew (8 years old) got stopped from entering the ground on Sunday using his Grandad's card who was unwell and couldn't attend. Both concessions... Did they let your nephew in? Even though he was in a different category to his Grandad seems a bit tight to refuse him entry when they are...

Last night's episode was entertaining as a spectacle but a bit disappointing storywise and the battle was too one sided. Obviously Daeny/Jon had the advantage of a giant airborne flame thrower on their side but as had been shown previously they are not indestructible and I kept thinking Cersei and h...

I think it probably is Love seeing world class players like Aguero, Hazzard, Salah etc at The Turf and those games when we do pull off surprise results against 'the big boys' especially away are still special. A top 12 finish would be a great achievement next season but it would be nice to have a bi...

Used to like Houghton but went off him a bit following his comments after the Bong booing fiasco at The Turf. Also wasn't happy when he got the manager of the season award for finishing 3rd (not his choice, I know, but it still irks a bit that he got it rather than the manager whose team went 23 und...

Hard to pick just one.
The Spurs home win was as satisfying but if I had to pick one highlight it's probably the 3-1 win in a '6 pointer' at Brighton.

Always had a soft spot for Sunderland having lived there for a couple of years as a kid, family connections, and the send off their fans gave to Stan T in his last game as manager for us.

Interesting that a lot of this thread is about Owen Coyle and the reception he received. Whatever your personal opinions of him it's difficult to argue that he wasn't the catalyst to where we are now even if we did strike it lucky with what turned out to be a one hit wonder. 10 years on, older and h...

I agree with Falcon, this series definitely feels different to the preceding ones with more happening 'off screen' but still enjoying it. Watched episode 4 last night and it was a bit of a slow burner (no pun intended) and setting the scene for things to come. The scene where Tyrrion was trying to a...
