Stripey McStripe Shirt

I see that Lyon, featuring Dejan Lovren, Cartela-Car and AMN are rooted to the bottom of the french league table at the moment.

Whenever I think of Cameron fucking Jerome, I think of a squealing pig that goes by the name Jerome. Allegedly.

Oh fuck, just realised it's nearly the weekend. I wish it was still only Monday 😔

Finally! This is what the fans want!!

My understanding was that the intricate pitch designs that we seemed to have regularly a few years ago were banned by the Premier League as they weren't compatible with VAR/drawing lines for offside decisions. Does that mean that they are now allowed again. Thinking back, I think there is a direct correlation between St Mary's only having boring striped grass and the team being shit.

And Olly Murs. Don't forget Olly Murs.

Direct quote from the OP article. "The researchers also uncovered ancient wooden tools, including digging sticks. But what excited them most were two pieces of wood found at right angles to each other." Incredible.

Just seen this on the news. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-66846772 Whenever I see news about "exciting" archaeological discoveries I just don't get it. Probably why I've also never been particularly interested in the Indianna Jones movies. Also, Halloween is a crock o' shit.

Cryptic message in Spanish from Carlos Alcaraz after the game last night on Instagram. My Google translate skills tell me it said "The last battle that is lost is the one that is abandoned". Is this a well know phrase?

If you have access to a Sky login you can watch it on the Sky Sports app (not the Sky Go app).

Anyone figured out if it's possible to watch on Sky Go? Can see it anywhere ...?

Does anyone know if this can be watched on Sky Go? From what I understand it's not on one of their actual channels, but instead just on the red button. Not sure if that can be accessed via the Sky app...?

Had everyone already forgotten that made a shit load of passes against Sheffield Wednesday?

Based on the fact that we bought Rickie Lambert for about the same price a year earlier, and eventually sold him for approx £5m(?), surely that is better value?

Have we ever considered getting someone in the Chapel to do this to the players after a loss?

Literally the only thing I tuned if for too. Had gathered all my friends around to watch.

I've voted for 'select all' so that I can return here as Captain Hindsight in about nine months time to tell you I was right and point out how ridiculous all of your opinions are.

Getafe me! Said his girlfriend (allegedly).

Absolutely sure he would still have chosen to go to Pompey if Bournemouth or Saints had shown any interest in him.

Went earlier in the year and stayed in Cavtat, just down the road from Mlini. Depending how long you stay, an evening for a few drinks/meal in Cavtat is nice with a few bars on the harbour front. There is a boat you can get relatively cheaply to Dubrovnik and a nice way to get to the city. Also a bus service. Alternatively, use Uber, which is significantly cheaper than normal taxis. Walk of the walls is a good thing to do, but buy the Dubrovnik pass which gets you into various other attractions too for the same price. Don't eat/drink anywhere on the main streets. Explore off the beaten track to find something more authentic. But if you do really, really want to splash out there is a Michelin star restaurant on the walls (Restaurant 360) which I also recommend, but be prepared to take out a second mortgage to afford it. On the bright side, I did get £50 off because a bird shat on my wife's dinner.

I can.

Or one JWP rising to a Lavia in a couple of years.

Agreed. Wouldn't be that surprised if he is the new Jermaine Jenas in a couple of years.

What is this weird new story every time England women get past about the quarter final of a tournament. Don't think I'd ever heard anyone remotely mention it until a couple of years ago, now it seems like a big deal whenever the government (rightly) says "don't be so fucking ridiculous".

Just logged on. Some old bloke in the pink goalkeeper shirt asking if we can be more friendly to the away fans travelling from Durham to watch the womens team. Thinks it would be lovely if we could say "Thank you for travelling so far" over the tannoy before the match. Great use of a few minutes of the microphone. Shame he didn't seize the opportunity to ask who has better hair out of Martin and Armstrong though.
