Thanks both. Don't mind paying to use Adobe but as above it seems expensive even on a monthly basis. But looks the best...

Does anyone use this or anything similar? Any feedback? Need some video and picture editing software. Would typically go for Adobe and has been recommended by someone I know. But possibly don't need all the functions you get with adobe creative cloud. So wondered if there is anything similar at a b...

Newcastle stupid not to sign him but at 29 he doesn't fit Ashley's sell-on for profit profile.

He'd be great for us but can see deeper pockets getting him.

If we start next season with a first 11 of Heaton, Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor, Hendrick, Cork, Westwood, McNeil, Barnes and Wood again we will almost certainly go down. What an utterly cretinous statement. That team kept us up this year. In fact once the changes of Heaton, McNeil and also Bards...

I’m convinced there isn’t. Likewise. "He Sean, we've allocated £20million to spend on players, but you're not allowed to spend it."

Looks worth a watch. I've just started watching Chernobyl. Forget horror films, this is a gruesome tale that actually happened in (most of) our lifetimes.

I watch the Premier League and Burnley highlights/live games whenever possible when not in the top flight. That's enough football for me.

Most of Dyche's recent signings haven't got past the bench, despite them looking like they have potential, i.e. Gibson and Vydra.

Newspaper links have named players such as Bogle, Bowen, Lolly, Adams and Murphy but can we really expect to get "known" young players such as these.
