I still do (under a new username on here)... fancy coming back Fretters?

Falcon

Cheers Matt.

1 space still to fill if anyone fancies themselves as a decent manager...

Falcon

No chance United will play him, imagine the backlash.

Falcon

As another season draws to a close, I am looking for a couple of new managers to join the Xpert11 fold. The Clarets Championship will shortly enter its 65th season, old enough to draw a pension (in Xpert11 years) but still going strong with 36 teams fighting for the coveted title. If you're reading ...

The Athletic are reporting that we have an option to make Beyer permanent for a fee if we are promoted.

What about people like Caster Semenya? Should they be allowed to compete at all?

Unfortunately probably not.

The alternative (letting her compete) harms all female athletes, whereas a ban harms only those who are intersex.

Always take the option that does the least harm.

Weird how many old blokes care so much about this. I think it's a great gesture. The chaps already get plenty of dosh at their clubs so won't miss it, and the girls get a nice supplement. I fail to see how the differences in physical attributes / footballing skill have any relevance other than in fo...

Moving back to the darts, and Price in particular. He loves to play the panto villain and is used to being booed, and the crowd favouring the opposition. He's used to that and revels in it. However at the worlds unfortunately there were a few tools in the crowd who were whistling just as he was rele...

No surprise really.

Media darlings United versus Championship leaders managed by a City legend.

Always likely to be picked for Sky.

Just seen our group , has to be the “easiest “ WC group in history . Wales/USA/Iran. I can only think that USA got a high seeding for beating generally weaker sides ? Iran are no mugs ,though their keeper’s throws are something . On paper (by both FIFA and the more realistic Elo) rankings our Group...

Any more interest before I start the new seasoN?

I preferred their left back, think he was the one sent off, rapid pace.

I agree. Thought their number 3 was their best player until he got two needless yellows.

Falcon

Hi all,

It's that time again when I look to recruit some fresh blood into the Xpert11 Clarets League.

More info in the post above. Hopefully some folk will be along to tell you how fun it is and cajole you into having a bash!

Cracking 2nd episode.

The scene on the bridge between the two competing heirs was top notch.

Can't help but feel a bit sorry for the King. He's trying to make the right moral choices but it seems like mistake after mistake politically.

Hopefully a striker and a CB

I'll deffo do a count at some point. I'm away this weekend though so it won't be for the Millwall fixture.

Falcon

Very interesting, and you can see the parallels with Sunderland Til I Die, which I believe Rob Mcelhenney watched and took influence from when deciding to buy a club.

Europa League draw: Group A: Arsenal, PSV Eindhoven, Bodo/Glimt, FC Zurich Group B: Dynamo Kyiv, Rennes, Fenerbahce, AEK Larnaca Group C: Roma, Ludogorets, Real Betis, HJK Helsinki Group D: Braga, Malmo, Union Berlin, Union Saint-Gilloise Group E: Manchester United, Real Sociedad, FC Sheriff, Omonia...

Man City, despite being in Pot A, have probably the toughest draw of the English sides.

Quite funny.

Starts at 17:00 BST

Who do we want?

Apart from Huddersfield we've created less chances and less on target than every opposition including Shrewsbury.

I don't necessarily disagree with your point, but we had more shots & shots on target than Hull, and more on target than Watford.

Falcon

There's usually only one outcome if the focus on a character on a TV show is their seemingly innocuous injury/illness...

That's my takeaway from Viserys's wound scene.

As I said earlier though, I've not read the book so I'm just speculating.

Falcon

I thought the Queen put in a fantastic acting performance personally.

Obviously she won't be featuring much from here on in, but got to appreciate the craft.

Falcon

Nobody is catching City this season tbf. They have too much quality, and have won 4 out of last 5 titles. The Liverpool win in the Covid season was a blip and I think we'll see a Bayernesque domination of the PL for a good few years yet.

Chelsea & Liverpool will be some way behind scrapping for 2nd.

Falcon

Solid start. Loved the juxtaposition of the bloody tourney violence and the anaesthetic-free deadly Ceasarian (a 'Queen's battlefield' as she put it herself), although it was tough to watch at times. I haven't read the book so I've no idea what's going to happen next (no book spoilers on here please...

Great player but he really does let himself down with the diving. I bloody hate watching him play.

RIP to a Claret legend

Why apologise for using the opportunity of free speech to say exactly what you think. Oh I did forget that we no longer have free speech, no longer have common sense, no longer have many people who are able to think for themselves etc., etc. ad nauseam. I am now waiting for someone to claim that th...

I think everyone understands what he was trying to say, and being honest, most fans would agree with what he meant in his head. He's just worded it carelessly. Clever thing to do is apologise for his unfortunate misspeak and use the platform to explain the intended meaning, then move on. Doubling do...

Another vote for Tulsi for a kebab. They're delicious and enormous. I have a big appetite and I struggle to finish. Don't often get a takeaway curry but when I do I use Premier Curries on Colne Road. Pricey but very good. I've been using Prontos for pizza for years, but anecdotally I believe they've...

Clearly a good player, but had a terrible attitude.

As others have said, I hope he does well so we can recoup a decent fee.

I'm worried about this being the 'peak of the season' - what if we lose? That's a terrible peak!

Will offer you to change as you have matched number of segments 26 with Eloise Laws and 123 mls with catcatcher and BigF

If 2 or more guessers have the same points are shared

I will amend to 122mls and 27 segs

Falcon

I'm also jumping on the 123ml of jooooose train for the same reasons.

26 seggies

Falcon

Is he really becoming a hindrance though. All this is just background talk - I'm sure he is just knuckling down in training hoping to get in a matchday squad.

Falcon

Well, sounds like we've set our stall out.

Ball is in Newcastle's court. They can fork out the cash or else Max stays put. End of story.

In the meantime Cornet can carry on as normal.

Falcon

I believe any booking for simulation would be classed as such.

Falcon

I assume the ref could have at his discretion called it as unsporting behaviour, but chose not to in this instance.

Falcon

That's quite tricky, Trevor.

Long time UTC viewer and lurker, first time poster here so firstly hi to everyone and most importantly here's my guess:
40 olives
78ml juice

And what a way to pop your cherry, I mean, olive.
