That is complete horse poo!! Drive on the German Autobhan my friend, lane discipline is nye on faultless over take and get over into the inside lane and there you have people coming at you from behind at 120mph plus. And you have wagons trundling along at 55mph, they seem to cope. The one thing you don’t get is ditherers ambling along at 60-65 in a middle lane fixed stare stupor. Like I say the amount of miles I drive, not aggressively, not at 90mph, and I have moved in a civilised manner from the inside lane to the outside lane to overtake these people and have more than enough distance to the next vehicle to move back into the inside lane again, I have seen 3-4 cars make the same move in convoy either in front or behind me and that car still sits in the middle lane like a chicane. Something tells me that you are one of these people who enjoys life in the middle lane even on an empty motorway and is part of the problem. Actually you will be amazed at how few people travel at 90 on a motorway those mostly “.being naughty” are travelling at tops 80mph. If you feel intimidated by that on a 3 lane motorway and feel that being in a middle lane bubble is the safest place for you then you should reconsider the using of the motorways as a last resort.

I would never deny that, but being sat in the outside lane of an empty motorway just because you are doing 70mph is not the lane to be driving in if you believe you are being a law abiding citizen tip top driver by adhering to the speed limit alone. I drive 35k+ miles a year, its bloody amazing how when you stick a police car on the motorway (I slow down ) everybody all of a sudden re-discovers lane discipline and is getting left!!!?????!!!! Even those numpties who sit at 60mph in the middle lane for mile after mile on a pretty empty motorway, if people adhered to lane discipline motorways and dual carriageways would flow so much better.

Modern Tills working out the change for the Shop assistant, which results in them placing the shiny plastic £5 0r £10 note on your palm first then £4.97 of loose change on top of the note which has zero surface resistance. ("sorry we have run out of £1 coins so theres 8 50p's") Who actually keeps notes and coins screwed up together in the same pocket or purse. Drivers who think that because they are doing 69.5mph in the outside lane of the motorway "you can stay behind me matey" because I am doing the national maximum speed, yes but the same little book that you got that nugget from also states that you should always be in the left hand lane unless overtaking. Those 2 inside lanes have been empty for the last 2 miles and that lorry you intend to overtake in a minute is still 2 miles down the road. 4 bloody cars going through Woodmill Lane, when the last 18 cars through have clearly been in blocks of 3!!!

Bet for the first couple of weeks they will be flogging THE shirt the players will be wearing for 100 notes again.

I refer the house to comment #407 At the meet the Ralphs evening it was said that all the loaned out players will have the rule run over them by RH before deciding which way to go with them. -
Pretty certain that Southgate commented on one of the times that JWP had been called up, that having known and played JWP at youth level he liked him and knew what he could bring to the game and that he had sometimes been accused of being his Father, or words to that effect. So we have gone from a raft of England managers who have picked the team based on the name on the back of the shirt, then the badge on the front, to an England manager who is conscious that he might be called out for showing favouritism towards a less fashionable player who he knows how to get the best out of and can do the job he asks of him. Makes you wonder if the England manager selects the squad, then submits it to the marketing team for editing and rubber stamping. to like you say appease the press.

He was going off the boil with us before that

Jeremy Kyle is twiddling his thumbs, might want something to keep him ticking over. Plus he does have a heap of Polygraphs and stuff that’ll be just collecting dust.

It'll all be forgotten by the end of August!!

Bury fans must be Shaking in their boots their 6-0 record could be going at this rate!

There is a bigger lad who sits in front of the Kingsland - he plays the role of subversive ball boy pretty well - we get a throw he is positive with passing the ball to Saints players, but more than once he has made to throw the ball to oppo players and either let is fall short of them or thrown it in a kack handed manner making it awkward for them. Think when we were time wasting v Bournemouth - JWP gave him a subtle thumbs up when he had faffed around retrieving the ball both sporting a rye smile.

No thanks

I wouldn’t put it totally beyond the realms of possibility, adding the last Western port before America to the Belt and Road Initiative is not going to be as easy as wafting into an African country with a suitcase full of money. The long game will have to be played. Alrough the mystery and BS alsurrounding this shirt sponsor, if that is the game, has more than likely illuminated a red light somewhere beyond these pages.

one thing with that kit, it’ll make us fat lads look thinner

Their super fans covered themselves in glory - some plonker got a bit naughty with a Sunderland player when he went over the hoarding down the side. Instead of rattling Sunderland it rattled the p*mpey players more, probably out of sheer embarrassment.

I know this has dropped out of sync I asked this question when there last year - the lady who I spoke to is self employed (no not one of those) - when we asked what the personal tax was here in China - she said I don’t pay tax because I don’t tell them what I earn - she has apartments she rents, drives a 5 series L - her husband works in the state prison service and pays 10% “because he works for the state”.

All seems a wizzard wheeze, just hope we finesse this shenanigans with the same aplomb Etihad FC:.........sorry Man City have. The FA will have a field day with us if it’s all a bit shonky, as City slipped through their fingers so with questions about our ownership already on the table, if this turns out to be a bit of money chicanery the magnafiying glasses will be out. Remember when we went into admin, Lowe thought he could use the loophole Derby used in points deduction avoidance, turned out the FL had pulled that one shut and Malwhinney burgeoned us with a baseball bat with a smile on his face. Football has become show business, the money swilling around in it is obscene alone, the only real link to the good old days are the 22 blokes out on the pitch kicking a bag of air about, and us numpties cheering on from the stands. We can all have a bang of the drum on here, but quite honestly the drum has no tension in the skin and it’s stuffed full of pillows. Looking at some of the stuff swilling around these new guys, it does all look very Chinese. I buy from China we go to the trade shows out there, you see something from a new company, you take a closer look, the heavily photoshopped images of Factories are impressive, the infrastructure to manufacture and back story likewise, more often than not reality is distant relative of the imagery. That’s not say what is being produced isn’t top notch and sound as more often it is. Everything is above board, just to Western eyes reality makes some people go Hmmm. Ain’t nothing any of us can do about any of it - if we win on the pitch and steam up the league - the majority won’t give a tinkers cuss about what goes on behind closed doors at SMS and beyond.

Good break away goal that. nice to see Ralph having a look too -
I thought that was all part of the cunning plan to stop us being picked off each summer. Back to the thread subject, why would we want Lallana back here? He doesn’t offer anything special, would probably pollute the dressing room too, and he seems to be broken most of the time.
