Marijuana was legalised in Canada last year, October I think. I don’t partake, but I guess one reason for legalisation was to get a ‘piece of the pie’ in the form of taxation. Another reason could be trying to reduce the black market.

Didn’t Dyche refer to DD as ‘Drinky’? If so, he clearly had some sort of insight into the players ‘tendencies’. And, given our alleged club spirit ‘all for one, one for all’, what will his team mates think of DD?

As others have mentioned, I’m surprised McNeils’ in the squad, never mind starting. The other surprise is Gibson has been named captain for the night, one would think Bardsley or maybe Long would wear the armband.

Nice try, however I’m talking about Red Stripe draught from the poolside bar. Or when I’m home, from a bottle. I NEVER drink beer from a tin……yuck!

I don’t know if Red Stripe has been mentioned as a favourite lager. I’ve spent quite a bit of time In Jamaica over the years and found Red Stripe goes rather well with sitting by a pool listening to reggae.

For years Canadian footy fans were able to watch PL footy on our cable sports channels, TSN and Sporstnet. Apparently the contract expired and DAZN took over PL footy in Canada.

Up to now most expect Pope will start in goal, Heaton a distant second, no mention of Hart. In one article I read, Dyche has hinted he’s decided who will start in goal.

Rory’s poor performance shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone. Over the last 5 seasons or so he’s rarely performed well when expectations are high.

Kudos to USGA for not messing with this course, as they have for the previous 3 US Opens.
