Presume they think now hes gone there's very little need to release any medical details about that situation, which is fair enough. They probably would have had to give a bit more info if he was still manager. Yes quite possible , as if they were gonna cook something up they surely wouldn’t have go...

Oddly there’s no mention verified or factual report of Roy’s hospital stay ,or illness or leaving hospital rather than stand alone “ Roy back home “ etc . I hope the whole thing wasn’t a ruse just to gently drop old Roy ? as it seemed pretty public knowledge a replacement was lined up . Either way y...

You all need to stop listening to western propaganda in the yanks proxy war with Russia. The sooner Trump gets back into power the better to end this thing once and for all correctly, at the negotiation table. You’re quite right re: Propaganda, and it’s embarrassing that the West has spouted just a...

It's sad that Cork, Jay Rod are Charlie Taylor are going out like this. Deserve a decent send off for their efforts down the years. Taylor was injured but otherwise has been one of the few bright spots this season . Cork is of course finished , though bit suprised we’ve not seen more of Jay due to ...

I'm confident we'd get more than we paid for Koleosho and Berge.

Once Kolo has a season under his belt he could be a cracker it has to be said , Berge I’m not so sure , he’s certainly decent but I’m not sure he’s a 20m+ player .

The sheer cult like status some fans hold VK in , they’re simply unable to offer a critique of this shocking season or the staggering failure of the players thus far. As an eternal optimist I’m somehow hoping we can get serious points in our next 4 “winnable games “ and this allied to the possible p...

Dyche was a fantastic championship manager, failed in his first attempt at the epl (out of his depth because he hadn’t managed there before) and came back stronger and better prepared for his 2nd attempt. There’s a high chance we’re watching history repeating. That Dyche team fought hard and showed...

Does he still support Burnley ?

Seems slightly odd they’d bump him off like this when the war is starting to go their way and the West /US getting a bit “ war weary “ on funding etc .? By the media reaction , the EU are raging at hunting Putin down for this and Biden said “ Putin is responsible “ etc . Now I wouldn’t trust Putin a...

If we really go for it we could give Arsenal a right old game , which I think is our only hope. Same team as last week with Taylor in for Delcroix .

Many moons ago when Roy was manager of b@stards , he was on a flight with a group of us going to an Eng game , possibly the Rome game . We were giving him a bit of stick ( he was near rear of plane ) and when he walked past before getting off he actually had a brief chat with us , he was very friend...

That’s the one ! I’d almost completely forgotten that , this was all the RUS minefields and pre prepped lines, WWI esque .

Russians already looking at Robotyne and wiping out the gains made there by Ukr last summer. We’ve just got to hope enough aid will have got through by Spring.

Was it Robotyne that’s now just literally a flattened waste ground ? It shows the sheer futility on both sides for the soldiers .

Is this an attempt at humour? Trump in power is the last thing we need. Nor America, for that matter. He will appease Russia. Reward their aggression and they will feel, quite rightly, emboldened. While I don’t think Trump getting in again is good for anyone , it cannot be denied that the US has fo...

“ went for a walk and felt unwell, after being taken and he died shortly after “ Jesus wept ! The poor b@stard , the sheer brutality of RUS can be staggering at times . The only reason I can think they’ve released the news now is due to the virtual fall and encirclement of Avdiivka ,which is a huge ...

UK....down 1%

EU....up 2.7%.

Strange that. Wonder what could have caused it.

Genuine question , is that an “official average “ stat from the last 3 yrs or so ? I know UK took a huge 10% (ish) drop on the Covid /Brexit crossover yr , but 1% down on Net GDP since Covid would be shockingly poor .

Not sure how many overs left ? But bizzarly India have brought Kuldeep in as night watchman , he can barely hold a bat ( neither can their 10 & 11) could pick up another wicket yet

It’s an excellent and very interesting interview giving a good “ from the horses mouth “ perspective of how the deals are looked at etc . Yes it’s a bit of a puff piece with the Vinny love and “ all players want to stay “ etc but he’s a PR man so naturally he spins it well .

I can’t stand the guy or his politics but he speaks perfectly good English . The video that sent Tommeh’s followers crazy was where he stood with another Asian MP who was translating to Urdu . The loons thought it was the Lab candidate himself who was talking Urdu because he “couldn’t speak English”

He was at the Orient game ! You weren’t there man you wouldn’t understand !!

“Patting away shots” is nothing whatsoever to do with physicality , it’s simply one of the “ micro trends” that have ebbed and flowed with coaches and tactics . I can’t stand punching out unless it’s a real pressure outswinger but plenty of coaches think the % ‘s are slightly better with a good flap...

Why is the ref jumping to the prem with only lower league experience? Refs have to have a pretty “ hard yards” route generally to get to prem level . Or has he been earmarked as a real young high flyer ??

Brilliant and very funny trailblazer dj back in the day . Steve Wright and the afternoon boys was a joy with all the characters like Mr Angry , the geese , the dogs etc . Used to listen after school then through the 90’s etc when he toned down a bit but still enjoyable stuff .

Imagine if Trafford had gone up at 2-0 and ended up in a heap like the Manuel Neur ( still superb at almost 38) did for Bayern .. this place would literally melt .

I’ve huge admiration for people living their lives on their own terms so well done to C&J . Kids can be a very expensive mix of heaven and hell , and though I’m hugely proud of my 2 ,I quite envy those who have no maternal instincts whatsoever .

As for your UN flag point , you’re aware flags are flat ? How else are you going to display the entire Earth except with a flat map?

The polar projection is fairly good at not over distorting relative size as well.

Just as any of you I haven't seen it and therefore I'm not going to just guess what it is. As I'm not sure of any shape. They show us perfectly round spherical computer generated images. They even admit they aren't real. Now they are saying it's a pear shaped oblate spheroid. Sure. I've also seen c...

Its just the top speed recorded. So I presume its not distance specific. Him and Van de Ven are the only 2 defenders on the list.

Cheers , that if anything even more impressive .

I’m not a huge fan of Charles , but as my King I seriously hope he fights this successfully and gets back on track soon . The media circus will be huge as you’d expect and In even worse news for Charles, Nicholas Witchel is back on air in full sycophant mode .

Or - a pretty amazing effort to get relatively close to a target that nobody realistically expected them to achieve. 2 tests in, both effectively decided by a couple of individuals producing stuff that differs from the norm. Pope and Hartley first test, Jaiswal and Bumrah in this test. Good players...

Colin’s last couple of great escapes with Hudds and Rotherham were superb efforts . He knows how to shake things up ,motivate players and instill a real backs to the wall mentality. Could probs even keep us up !

Dyche came back better and stronger,so can Kompany.

But Dyche didn’t get 100+ million to spend after our 1st promotion , having Sordell and Juke up front etc , even then we fought hard and didn’t surrender .

Anyone any idea how long Taylor’s out ? Hopefully he’s not dislocated the shoulder ?

AlargeClaret

It’s not that we don’t have talented , young quick technically gifted players , it’s that they’re not generally anywhere near the level required in the Prem . They’re by en large upper end “small european league” players who will all make a very nice living , while never troubling the main stage .

It’s a pity the club will likely make a decent profit on players yet be relegated for 2nd time in 3 seasons . This model goes hugely t1ts up if we don’t get straight back though . Roberts been a decent servant , not quite as good as Lowton as a RB but always gave his all .
