Honestly some people desperately need a hobby or something interesting in their life.

It was ok, I don’t understand the rave reviews it’s been getting. For me it lacked the 2 things the game was good at - real tension and big action set pieces.

The money is barely a positive as it is almost 100% funnelled out of the club via increased transfer fees, wages and agents costs.

I have the big Millennium Falcon, it took me and the kids a few weeks to build it. It’s an absolutely incredible thing, and it weighs a ton.

Isn’t that the point though? The conspiracy theorists were pretty accurate in their assessment of covid.

You mean that Bill Gates was using the vaccine programme to microchip the population?

Some next to us were standing up and in the way of a 6 or 7 year old girl. The selfishness of these people is astounding and shocking. They were extremely agitated and aggressive. They left for the toilets 5 minutes before the first half and didn't return until 5 minutes into the second half before...

They can buy the best players in the world and employ the best coach in the world to manage them.

They bloody well should be the best team in the world.

I saw the map with all the answers last week. I won’t ruin the comp but there are a few I disagree with. One is a trio for Dorset where only 1 member was from Dorset. Deep Purple are given for a county and not one member of the original line-up were from close to that county. Yes if it’s the same o...

Just wondering what would happen if the new auditors don't sign off the accounts

They wouldn’t accept the job if they thought there was a risk of this happening.

claret2018

Previous auditors (who signed off the last accounts) were Azets. They're a top 10 firm and more than capable of doing Burnley's accounts. (They do Nottingham Forest's for instance). They are a top 10 firm in name only, they are the same small firm of accountants that were bought out by Azets a few ...

claret2018

I’m personally most concerned about why we’d need to change auditors. A financial audit is an administrative practice and so I don’t see why we’d choose to change to “improve” the club or “move it forward”. The obvious explanation would be that the previous auditors were not willing to sign off the...

claret2018

These things happen in the audit world, it appears to me that there’s nothing at all to be concerned about. Not ideal, but not a huge negative

claret2018

No surprise really. His goalscoring ratio is worse at Utd than it was at Burnley, which was godawful. People were saying on here he would score hatfuls at Utd with quality service into the box but it just hasn’t happened. Some people think he’s doing a good job because he does the work of a midfield...

I think the Blair Witch Project is one of the best horror films ever made.

And Heat being in the list! Literally a perfect film in my view.

Get rid as soon as we can. He’s proved in 2 separate PL spells he’s not cut out as a PL striker. A good 20 minutes at a World Cup does not a great player make.

Sell him to a team in some farmers league where he can go back to bagging 1 in 2.

Another vote for the godfather.

I don’t know what I’m missing, but it’s a long, boring drag. And I like a lot of old, long, slow-burn films.

It's not it's not practical in any shape or form for some businesses due to short shortages they struggle running effectively on 6 days a week never mind 4. Some businesses will be able to adapt but not all.

Absolutely right, but that shouldn’t stop businesses who can adopt it.

The huge advances in technology and IT in the last 30 years should mean businesses can operate more efficiently with less human hours worked, but in reality this hasn’t happened. Companies have got greedy with what they can squeeze out of people despite the massive increase in productivity that tech...

I really like 1984, although I read it on holiday in the Caribbean which may have clouded my memory on it.

Unless Orwell’s works have also undergone some sly revision in the years since I last read them, I can’t really see the relevance of 1984 to the attached news story?

People like to say things are like 1984 when they clearly haven’t read it, or if they have they missed the point spectacularly.

I’m not saying it’s not a good night out, I’m saying it comes across as tinpot.

Do you think Man Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea let the great unwashed in to mingle with the players and staff for their awards do?

claret2018

Of course, who can forget that part of 1984 when Big Brother changed a few words in children’s books.

claret2018

The club seems to be steering away from this kind of event, which isn’t a bad thing imo. It comes across as a bit tinpot

claret2018

He’s done well to carry on a premier league career for as long as he has.

claret2018

He’s done nothing at Utd to suggest he’s anything other than out of his depth at PL level.

His scoring record in the foreign leagues shows he’s not a defensive forward, but PL managers are making excuses for his lack of goals by saying he brings other things to the side.

He doesn’t look out of place in the team, generally uses the ball quite well, works hard.

Critics will say he’s not scoring but there’s a reason Ten Hag is playing him every game.

Yes, they don’t have another striker

Had no idea he is actually Canadian.

I assumed it was a Scott Arfield/Ashley Barnes sort of international arrangement.
