It's a thought, but it might give SR the excuse to play a team of left backs, nustjust because they've been stock-piling them. 🙂

Worry

Knockers

Exactly. Just a "teenage indiscretion." Pay no mind that his recollection bears no resemblance to what he was convicted for.

'In statement, McMurdock said his business dealings had been assessed by "appropriately qualified professionals" and "absolute compliance was confirmed".' It was a free for all as banks and governments dodged together rules to apply, keeping companies going without the requirement of lots of paperwork as proof. Cue tons of fraudsters dusting off old companies, networks of companies and recently set up ones with delusions on future earnings. So, just because he got the money doesn't mean for a second he's not completely at it. Nearly all knew exactly what they were doing. His background in banking makes it certain he did. And of course, this tells you all you need to know about him. https://news.sky.com/story/reform-mp-james-mcmurdock-was-jailed-for-repeatedly-kicking-girlfriend-court-records-show-13258311

Right up until 85 mins, it was France's game. They were in control, and had the odd opportunity, without over reaching. England's passing was miles of their own standard tonight. England switched to a back 3. Considering the space they'd been giving away down the flanks, they could really have started that way. Toone, on as a sub, got some central pressure finally for England. That led to an excellent goal from Walsh. Then, England had a front two and caused France some issues, the best being a last player clearance a couple of yards from the line. France deserved their win. England can be much better, and will have to be in a tough group. Netherlands won, so that's already changing the group dynamic in a really tight tournament structure.

Creepy.

Bruising first half, with England 2-0 down to France. Both evenly matched, when England had VAR rule one out. England worked hard in the move to keep people onside. Even the graphic 5 mins later looked onside. But that changed the momentum. England lost momentum after it was ruled out, and France dominating the midfield. From there, they opened space behind the defence. Carter is okay as a right back, but is a weaker link at left back, and was second best throughout. After good spell of pressure France got their opener from behind right back, getting a ball across for a tap in. But there was space on the other side, with Bronze pushing up. Bronze's outstretched touch, after 2 England defenders were bypassed, gave space for the second. After that, France have moved into being more compact, out muscling England, and keen to counter. England have excellent attackers. With luck, France will be compact again, giving England space in their half to get back into it.

I was tempted, but it turns out it's not Lisa Stanfield playing up front.

I see our third kit has been leaked ahead of our Amazon Prime series, Pirates of the Solent, as we try to capture that Wrexham Hollywood buzz.

Opportunity

Barcelonasaint's point concerned player fitness, and was supported by his second post. Trolling that it's suddenly about structure willfully misses his point, and is a return to you being a bell end.

After surprise TP and Sule pennies, any thing's possible. Hoffenheim pulled out of a 12.8 million pound move for him last summer. Most agree that there is talent there. We paid something like 10 million euros for him. At this stage a thing over a couple of million euros is an accounting profit. A sell on would be nice, and get what we can over that couple of million, so that everyone can move on.

Looking forward to this season's pre match Pride shirt. Although it's slightly less colourful than...

If only I had something like that. But that was definitely one my brother got. To be fair it was just one of many from the Britannia Music Club. We didn't get pocket money as such, but got recurring things bought for us. Since my brother was in Britannia, I didn't have to ask for music. He'd let me order things too, once in a while. That's why, by the time I was buying music my tastes were already refined. Which is why I reckon it was something by the Bangles. 🙂

Just a moment ago played the start of The Damned United with Clough putting the boot into Revie on air, and the reaction of the players to his arrival. 🙂

While not as nice as some of the mock ups, that's not bad. Some other red and white striped shirts this season, courtesy of a Beeb article. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c939y2r0g7lo Nuremberg Olympiakos

Wow. I've heard of people who have a thing for car exhausts. But to take on the loading bay of a ferry is quite something. I can see where the money's coming from now. 🙂

I'd love to know what you're doing to bring 2.5 million into the UK economy in September. 🙂

You could. But there might be a shipping charge. And until they confirm that ship won't be a P&O ferry, it's a trigger risk. 🙂

Coronation

No one making plans for Nigel. 🙂
