Announcing on the eve of the CL final that you're going to leave if you win isn't a sure-fire way in how to endear yourself to your squad and board. Potch lost the dressing room after that. Look how their players preformed for their countries in this last break. Anyway, bang goes their record for pl...

Another good advertisement for ditching our cars in favour of public transport.

Billy Balfour

I wish you all the best and a full and speedy recovery.

Apparently, Ann Widdecombe was offered a leading role in the government’s post-Brexit negotiating team if she stood down. And some of you think Corbyn's crazy, eh.

Billy Balfour

Well I've magged to learn one thing from reading this thread.

Under no circumstances whatsoever should you accept a drink out of Bill Oddie’s flask.

Sterling added that he and Gomez "are good" and "both understand it was a 5-10 second thing it's done we move forward and not make this bigger than it is. Let's focus on our game on Thursday." Much ado about nothing. But still, let's all cry about it and make loud noises about L...

Pity is wasn't 10 years ago. I really can't be doing with him and this has nothing to do with his run-in with Stan.

The walking poppy mascot was way OTT and the height of poppy kitsch. Also, I now feel that Remembrance is being tarnished by those who wish to out do each other every year. Be it shops, businesses, pubs or football mascots. There seems to be a "We are considerably more patriotic than yow" ...

You must like to get close to the viewing content, but how close - Ultimate Whitecream close?

A heavy fine, in the thousands of pounds category, vehicle crushed along with some lengthy community service (litter picking and cleaning up after fly tippers) and this is for the first offence. Another heavy fine and jail time for a repeat offence.

I hope the Scousers start singing 'we're gonna win the Prem' and end up hexing themselves.

Billy Balfour

Oh and Millertime is right. The difference between 1080p and 4K in very minimal.

Billy Balfour

I do actually have a Sony 4K - bought it from Richer Sounds. It replaced a 10 year old Sony 1080i that only had one HDMI port.

BTW: Richer Sounds throw in a 6 year warranty.

Oh no. I'll have to get one before my neighbour does.

Billy Balfour

I can't wait for 5K then I can hand over some more of my hard-earned to the TV manufacturers and retailers.

Might as well sack VAR and throw away the handball rule book while they are at it.

The Man in the High Castle on Prime. Season 4 starts next week.

Billy Balfour

Cost cutting. I can't see any other explanation for it.

Billy Balfour

Good to read that a couple of people here on UTC rate The Outer Worlds highly. Apparently, there's a patch about to land sometime next week that deals with the tiny text issue that some have been complaining about on the Obsidian forum.

Billy Balfour

I've decided it's not for me after reading the reviews. In any case, my gaming time it rather limited at the moment. A couple of hours a week if I'm lucky. One game I'm going to buy in the next month or so, to play over the Christmas break, is The Outer Worlds . A bit like Fallout NV, but with aroun...

The south is a foreign country; they do things differently there.

I can't remember the last time I sat through a full TV advert. In our house they are either fast-forward or paused and then FF.

Don't do it then.

I have a hunch that Japan isn't for you, Blackrod.

That would be terrible for the environment. Better to throw the mobile phone users out of the window - at least they will biodegrade.

While it’s not my cup of tea personally. Also understand why some people do that. Many go for the weather, blue skies and cheap ale. And aren’t bothered for the culture. Not my idea of a holiday but... A while back, I remember reading about an East Lancs couple who went running to the local press b...

Stay away from the Irish bars and British style pubs and treat yourself to a visit to a Greek taverna. Soutzoukakia and a bottle of Alpha beer is the way to go. Yiamos. This. Why go abroad to drink or eat in British/Irish style pubs? Might as well stay in your local Spoons. Find a good taverna, awa...

Same here. Can you imagine the hassle if the sale hit any snags? Dealing with someone who may or may not pick up their mobile phone. I just wouldn't go near.

Billy Balfour

I'm now glad I didn't go. Awful result/performance and so-called Burnley fans acting like bellends, even towards their own supporters. What a way to spend a Saturday afternoon, eh.

As for cocaine - it turns dullards into boorish arseholes.

Billy Balfour

Petulant form regarding the medals.

Cheers for that, Felix. I'll check it out.

Does anyone know how the Pro Evo option files work on the PS4? It's years since I last played Pro Evo and messed around with option flies. I know you have to download them and transfer the files onto a USB stick, but what's the faff like after this. Do you still need to manually transfer everything ...

Microtransactions now make up 28% EAs sales. £40/£50 for a game and then further monetise it with microtransactions. Gamers are being mugged. Same with Ubisoft.

There's no way that BJ is going to ditch his deal to hold hands with Farage. It's just not going to happen and Farage knows this.

That's quite a ridiculous comparison and one that makes you look like a bit of a dickhead. Turkey invaded Cyprus in 1974, not even a lifetime ago, and murder and rape of Greek and British people was indeed widespread. HTH.

Mrs Browns Boys is a 'comedy' made for single-celled organisms.

I was going through my dad's vinyl collection a couple of years ago and came across some Genesis LPs. It's not for me, apart from maybe Foxtrot, but by heck they didn't half take a tumble when they allowed the drummer to take over lead vocals after Peter Gabriel left. Even worse though is his solo s...

It is also a criminal offence for a person to refuse to provide their name and address, or to give false or inaccurate information, to an enforcement officer where it is proposed to give that person a fixed penalty notice (Section 88(8B) EPA 1990).

An absolute massive own goal to target public transport powered by electricity. I'm all for environmentalism, but some of them are clearly going off the rails on a crazy train.

Sorry to read this. I had a few 'debates' with him, but he didn't bear a grudge - I think that says a lot about him.

I'm fully aware of how local govt works. The LA will have been consulted about a road closure on this scale.
