Much better test this. Sort of team we hopefully will be in an around and need to take points off next season.

If players need to make mistakes to learn from, I'd prefer it to be in the cup.

A draw away, we'd call that 2 points dropped.

Wishing everyone a very happy happy Christmas from myself, Benbfc and our father Steve Golby who's written the occasional article on his memories of the club. Hope next year bring you great joy and if any sorrow should before you come talk, there are always those willing to listen. We're all in this...

I thought that was a good reality check. We stuck to our style of play & had moments, didn't get over run either, took some quality goals to sink us.

If it takes United at OT to make us look ordinary that's a good sign for a Championship campaign.

Excellent cross on the volley.

You'd think the defense could mark a player who's been dead.

Margin Call

The thinking man's Wolf of Wallstreet.
Takes place over 24 hours the board of a wall street investment bank decides to fire the starter pistol of the 2008 subprime market crash.

A stellar cast; Kevin Spacey, Zachary Quinto, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Irons, Stanley Tucci.

Was out doing an Xmas social so couldn't watch the game and therefor can't speak to the quality of Boro.

But I showed a friend the scoreline at 0-1 down and said to them, "We'll win this".

Thank you for sharing. Thoughts to her family and a great loss to the wider Clarets family of which we all are part of. She will be missed on here.

Guff..... We really really struggled to meet those monthly payments....

So, it looks like I am going to be paying an extra 15k in taxes over the next 5 years to supplement the underclasses. What a country we live in. And that's why everyone from Europe and beyond wants to come here. You're being taxed in an attempt to curb inflation. Taxes do not pay for government spe...

I don’t get the supply and demand argument, tbh. I do agree we should keep building new housing stock since like new cars, there always demand and need for replenishment, but I don’t see large parts of the population homeless. There are enough houses for us to all live in. There are just about enou...

That chart right there shows exactly why we need them to come down and significantly.

That's a supply and demand issue.
Higher interest rates, pricing people out into every more expensive rental property, unable to save for deposits. I don't see how that helps.

How do you control something that is outside your control?

After pollution, EVs need to tackle the other two problems with vehicles. Safety: Speed limit cars. With GPS in vehicles no reason we cannot limit cars to the correct speed limit, even a blanked 85mph would be better than nothing. Amazing we've speed-limited e-bikes before cars/vans/lorries.
