    Lukoil? Not so Luky.
  2. So, on loan to the Segunda division to a newly promoted side. Quite an important year for him.
  3. It's the best shirt we've had for a while. But that is probably damning with faint praise. It could have been even better still.
  4. Wrexham at home to start, there will be a lot of spotlight on that.
  5. Just seen that a bus full of Barton Pevrill College Students has just gone into the river in Bishopstoke. Fingers crossed that the kids on board are ok. If anyone on here is family to them, positive supportive thoughts to you all.
  6. A model pro. Sorry to lose him, and to say that about any of the players we've had over the past 12 months is quite the achievement. Hope he moves to a decent club, he's earned it.
  7. Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Duje Caleta-Car have another relegation on their CV's. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cy7ng4vj8leo

    Why am I half expecting Trump to now plant a MOAB in Tehran's main public market?
  9. How did we get this far without mentioning Elyonoussi? (Probably spelt it wrong.) My heart would sink every time he was in the side.
  10. Adam Lallana on his return.
  11. ......And was embarrassingly shit. So, yes. Fingers crossed for low key.
  12. Always assumed it's insiders from the Chinese subcontractors that the firms use.
  13. Madness.... A skate wouldn't wait that long to pass it on.
  14. Sofiane Boufal in the Tesco Express in Kings Worthy.
  15. We can't have nice things, can we?

    Do as we say, not as we do.
  17. Thankyou. The same principle that worked for the old Soviet Ekranoplans if I remember right.
  18. New Craig David song? Met this Skate on Monday.....
  19. Or too draggy?
  20. It doesn't explain in itself why the plane would fall. If you are fast enough to leave the ground you should continue to gain speed and thrust from there on. If there was a flaps issue maybe the plane then stalled, but I wouldn't take the runway length to be the problem here.
  21. No power = no forward thrust. It had enough thrust to get airbourne in the first place and would have slowed according to air resistance.... but would be able to resonably glide a fair distance. They are designed to glide in the event of engine failure.
  22. The plane's attitude doesn't change. It's almost as though it entirely and instantaneously lost power and couldn't maintain it's climb.
  23. Play-offs. Finishing the season strongly. I think we will be optimistic at season's end after some discontent at the start of the season,
  24. You will be relieved to know I don't teach business studies.
  25. I'm a teacher and I do tutoring on the side. A colleague does similar and apparently only pays a 20% tax rate rather then the circa 35-40% i'm currently paying for my extra income. As the sole breadwinner for our family, any steps I take to retain as much as possible are worth considering.
