Eh?

What a deliciously strong team. Looks like the "play a sh it team, so we can concentrate on the league" wet-dreamers will have to wait for our next manager because Ron ain't ever going to give you the satisfaction. Come on Saints.

BBC saying it's Oldham he's signing for. Joe Royle turning in his grave.

I've spent some time with some perfectly pleasant Americans through work and once we talked about the "we need guns to ensure the government is afraid of the people" argument mentioned earlier in the thread. It is so ridiculous to my lily-livered European pinko ears but seems hard wired into the wider American psyche as a central truth. As if individual members of the public owning a handgun is, in itself, a way to prevent dictatorship. Borderline inexplicable to me but seems a fundamental core belief. It would be a mountain to climb to change that.

The Arsenal game is on later to be fair. For the first and second round BBC coverage was good, but this is a bit of a damp squib. Them showing the Wimbledon match on Monday is dopey too when it should have been the centre piece of the weekend coverage.

There won't be a stream for this one, I'm afraid.

Looks like he's signing for Oldham. Or Barnsley. Or someone in L1, tomorrow. Get your half and half scarfs ready, Saints Forum Chedettes.

You can deliberately do something and still be wrong. Footballers don't deliberately miss penalties but they still do. You are wrong, deliberately. Have it your way.

So the answer to my question is no, then. England, English. In all dictionaries and all known style guides. Glad that's settled. You chose to write "english" because you're not a "slavish follower". But of course. Or... you "really care" enough when picked up on a simple mistake to fabricate an entire back story for your error rather than just owning up. So, "for the record", you're full of it.

Can you point me in the direction of a dictionary or major style guide that advises using the noun/adjective English without capitalisation? If it's just you, as an individual being a "trend setter" (for the sake of not admitting you are wrong on a forum) then let's agree you're wrong. And accusing people who use capital E for the word English as "slavish followers"? What a monumental bellend you are.

NBC going for a bit of multi-layered subtext. Like it.

Your style is to be wrong, then fine. Well done on that.

LOL. Just accept you made a mistake.

I wondered about that - is that picture up in the ML Pavilion, or was the interview with LR filmed somewhere else. Either way, it was an odd choice for a background image.

They say Jack Wilshire is underrated every single week.

Fair enough. I'm not the expert but what is happening now isn't actually an appeal, and wouldn't result in the conviction being overturned, I think it just means the case is heard again back in court.

Sunday and Monday night. Slightly odd selection. They should have put the Wimbledon match on Saturday teatime.

What crosses are Sky currently showing every week?

Chedettes: never let anyone take your dreams away from you. #prayforChed

Thanks for the link. Despite some ropey production and a slightly wonky flow to it I thought it was a nice watch, clearly tailored for a newcomer. The heart of the story is an exceptional organisation deploying the right strategy in the right way. The pathway, the player development, is truly fantastic and seems to be able to transend any individual, which is the sign of a really strong culture. And the facilities look astonishing again. Les Reed's role slightly over egged for the sake of the NBC narrative but nice to hear him, and as usual he spoke well. But poor old Ralph, who I desperately want to like, still struggles to sling a decent sentence together on camera. All in all, it was lovely.

No you haven't.

You keep that solitary joke going throughout 2015, won't you. So funny. So very, very funny.

He was no more than an employee who was paid for his work at the time.

....this guy. Still scant evidence of him being a real professor.

He's not pretending to be a know all. The BBC pay him to make predictions each week for Five Live, Football Focus and the website. And the only people who put any "store" in his predictions are the effing loons that over analyse them and then get jolly upset. Which brings us to...
