Brilliant read! Who would have thought Ben Mee was in to geopolitics.

Great goal by Shaqiri

Despite getting a tap in, Andre Gray missed two great chances with shocking finishes. That said, he was no where nearly as bad as Joselu was for Newcastle.

"Errrrrrmmm"

We should take it seriously regardless as it is a competition we have a realistic chance of doing well in. In recent years it's been won by Wigan and Portsmouth, while Hull, Stoke and Palace have all made the final. No reason why we can't achieve similar.

kaptin1

Yes, it's not too long ago that we used to applaud when the team strung more than two passes together.

"Top top"

kaptin1

He definitely has something about him...quick, can beat a man, but seems to hold onto the ball too long and then either gets dispossessed or makes a bad decision. Maybe he doesn't have that "footballing brain" that is required to be a "top top" player.

In which case, maybe try a robo-advisor like Scalable Capital. They offered partly tailored solutions for investors with smaller amounts to invest but who still want some basic advice.

In the 50s/60s and the early part of last century we were a force to be reckoned with, winning the league and regularly challenging for the top places. While by no means title contenders, we are once again up there challenging the best. So, would any of our current squad get in or close to being in ...

Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread. My next question would be, where is the best place to find an independent financial adviser, what qualifications should they hold and how much should one cost? I’m not sure whether to get advice or to go it alone at this moment in time. Thanks agai...

It’s ok, they haven’t learnt to use the phone yet or count as high as ‘9’

We’ve never really scored or conceded many under Dyche. The occasional 3 or 4 scored in the Championship and 3 or 4 conceded in be Prem, but nothing like the latter days of Ternent’s reign (thank God) when 5+ at either end seemed to be the norm!!

I can’t believe we got £18.5m for Gray ... daylight robbery!!

Phenomenal double save from Gomez

kaptin1

Depends who’s available. If there is someone who available for the right money and is an upgrade on what we have got in any position then we should try to sign them. That said, I don’t think we need to sign anyone.

Will Hughes having a good game for Watford. Well taken goal after completely scuffed shot from Gray.

Flappy Forster up to his usual tricks

Despite their good start I still think Huddersfield will get relegated as they really struggle to score. Promoted sides always seem to fade in the second half of the season too.

I’ve got a fair chunk in this fund, but to be honest it just proves to me that you can’t beat passive funds over the long term. On average I think that is true as the average active fund will underperform the average passive fund over time simply due to the fact that charges of the former are highe...

PaintYorkClaretnBlue wrote:Long term you think that he’ll come good though kaptin?

As I say, he is regarded by many as a good active fund manager but beating the market on a sustainable basis is incredibly difficult to do, so I couldn't say with confidence that he will regain his stripes.

Woodford has suffered some casualties in his fund of late which have damaged performance, not least Provident Financial which he owned around 20% of and has seen it fall from well over £30 to well under £10 this year, as well as suspending dividends. He is now seeing redemptions which are never heal...

The Venkys are possibly looking at how many potential first team players the academy could produce over the next few years. If they think it's not going to be enough, they can and possibly will get shut of it. As for the land, it's anyone's guess as to how much it's worth. Rovers fans are convinced...

While important, I don’t think money will be Dyche’s main factor in deciding whether he stays or goes

I once had a go at rally driving as part of a day long course at Silverstone. Had a co-driver / tutor yelling in my ear so much that, when I got to a bend, I just carried straight on. Fortunately, there was nothing in the way so didn’t crash. An incredibly difficult sport to master. Whatever you thi...

Don’t forget Juha Kankkunen and Marku Allen too!

For me, rallying is the most exciting motorsport. To drive at over 100mph down a gravel track with trees and steep drops on either side is simply mental. One mistake and you are mince meat.

Is this what used to be the RAC rally many years ago? That was a great event in the 80’s when we had the group B cars like the Audi Quattro, Lancia Delta S4 and Metro 6R4, but rallying seems to have become a bit of a motor racing backwater these days.

They should have both been sent off for violent conduct. Referee bottled it by dishing out yellow cards.
