"The food/supplies aren't reaching the people who need it" is a phrase that is heard in almost every humanitarian crisis I'm not sure it's worth singling out Puerto Rico as a unique case of failure. It's easy to fly in a plane or dock a ship somewhere but distributing those supplies onward to everyo...

Litterally finished the first episode minuites ago. I'm going to give it a few more episodes (handy it ends on a cliff hanger). As a TNG child there's a lot of details that grate a little; it's too dark (literally in luminosity), costumes are wrong, Klingons look weird, tech feels newer but the sett...

Lindegaard very unprofessional by showing up late for this game, a few minutes I can forgive but 10 years!?

The game was uneventful, we get it. Dyche though clearly feels strongly about diving and aired his views when an example occurred. If Dyche was trying to divert from a dull game with a rant on diving the journalist is trying to divert from his lack of originality and penmanship with a rant on Dyche....

Internet era hyperbole soundbite clickbait.

Does come across as entitled when a an unexciting but not uncommon 0-0 is labeled as abysmal. Palace are abysmal, our game was just average and/or uneventful. No need for such selfie spewing vitriol.

As a white middle aged man who works in the media (TV, Film, Theatre etc) I can tell you it's still very much entirely composed of white middle aged white men or WMAM, though white middle aged women show up a lot more as they are far more sensible at things. Almost all key roles are WMAM. Director 9...

So our revenue is one fifth or ManU?
That's fairly respectable given they are the 'biggest club in the world'.

Far more likely we won't finish in 6th 7th or 8th. 66% or two thirds more likely.

Pope, Bardsley, Tarkowski, Long, Taylor, Gudmundsson, Hendrick, Westwood, Arfield, Barnes, Vokes.

I'm aware of that from a few years ago but not seen it. I'll give it a watch in the next few days. I would highly recommend it. It doesn't just bash SciFi like for example Space Balls does, it highlights some of the silliness of the genre but always with witty humour and affection. The characters h...

I watched the premier and was really not fond of it, it seemed to have no idea what it wanted to be. I was glad it was not 'Ted' in space with cheap swearing and crude sex jokes but the few gags that were present were pretty weak. The gimmick seems to be 'It's Star Trek but people are quite casual a...

I asked last week how long it would take the fans to turn. People thought I meant the team as a whole which given their position is unlikely for now, but it seems Gray is starting to draw some ire. Maybe he's pulling defenders around and contributing to wins like he for us at times but fans want to ...

8 saves from shots on target. Heaton-equse. Exceptional

Risky formation, no keeper and new player at right back?!

4 games in and tied with Huddersfield on points.
4 games in and tied with Liverpool on points.

Both statements would garner very different reactions pre-season.

"...By having a manager who's been there for a long time, he will have known Michael Keane will be going at some point. And he because of his security I suppose he can look a little bit further into the future and make sure the replacement is there and being prepared even if it's a year off." Inter...

Against him rather than their position. Haven't watched them but suppose he might be pulling players around. He needs to score soon though.

4 games and only an assist, wonder how many it will take for fans to turn.

I would hope we are looking at a CB, but I could understand the likes of Shawcross and Dawson would not want to come to Burnley because unless there was an injury to Mee or Tarks they would not get any game time at all, our only hope is we bring in a young 4th choice behind Long as I can see why no...

This board is embarrassing at times. Some of the back seat management, coaching and accounting is ridiculous.

So, the NK has a Ice Dragon, and that's how he brings down the wall... so the guys plan all along was for someone he probably doesn't know exists to fly a dragon - that he has no reason for thinking still exist - so he can kill said Dragon, and then zombify it and use it to bring down the wall?!?

Pre-season Newcastle were rumored to be keen on buying Barnes.

I wonder if there might be a cash and player swap deal in the making.

Our defence looked all over the place, really. Sorry but we were up against the highest scoring team of last season (86 goals). If our defense looked all over the place that's because Spurs carry so much attacking threat and they had to be 'all over the place'. There will be a lot of last ditch def...
