It was a cracking finish, I'd written us off until Fuller started smashing it. Dawson is such a legend too.

Bump. Is today's blast game to be streamed on YouTube?
-
It was immediately after Fraser's off-side goal. Whilst some of our players were busy complaining about the off-side to the ref and lino, Porteous was trying to re-start the game with a quick free kick, as several of our players out of position and not paying attention. Mara saw this and "brushed passed" Porteous (ahem, perhaps there may have been an elbow to the body or suchlike). Porteous went down like a sack of spuds and the quick free kick was thwarted. Their goalie, who'd seen it all then started having a tantrum like a toddler who'd been told he wasn't allowed any more ice cream, cos the ref and lino weren't looking.

Is tonight close to a sell out?

Isn't he cup tied?

Deion Saunders: Won 2 superbowls and played in a baseball world series.

Lumley's decent performance today hopefully spurs him on to up his game.

It turns you into Iain Dowie?

Might've been worried about losing a shoe...

Just bought flights to Bucharest, 4 nights, the car parking at the airport costs more than the flights...

Is that Prince William in drag?

Totally agree! Absolutely nothing! That's why she is still in a job and Rishi and the Tories are all fully supportive of everything she said recently. She is the future of the Tory party it is a breath of fresh air, unlike the tired old crap of the Conservative party's recent past. Just be thankful we can't go back in time. Now I'm just going to switch on the news to see what's happening in the world of politics today...

I'm attending my first game of the season tomorrow, so I've bought a ticket near the back of block 15... Only 4 tickets left in that block now...

They must have some players who can score, that we could sign, what about Ballard who got 2... Oh hang on !!!!

I have just spoken to an experienced tyre fitter, so I thought I'd share the response I received: If the size/ratings of the 'non-run-flats' is identical to the 'run-flats' they replaced, then the new tyres should be inflated to exactly the same pressure as the run-flats they replaced, i.e. the recommended pressures shown on the plaque in the car's door jam. (Obviously if for some reason this then results in tell-tale uneven wear patterns, for either over or under inflation, then the pressures should be tweaked accordingly). Most emergency tyre repair kits (the through the valve gel type kits) will fix most punctures (other than side wall problems) and allow the car to be driven to a garage to sort the problem, but in 99% of cases these kits will effectively ruin the tyre and require the tyre to be replaced (not ideal if the tyre is relatively new). I was therefore told the best solution was to just have decent breakdown cover (which I thankfully do), meaning you can either be towed to somewhere to fix the tyre, or apparently these days the AA and RAC often carry a number of different sized donuts that they'll fit, then follow you to the tyre place, and then remove.

The fronts are almost new, and the rears (different width and recommended pressures to the fronts) have only done about 40 miles in total, so it's way too early to see any uneven wear. Plus ideally I want to get the pressures correct, from the start, because at £270 a corner, I don't want the tyres to start wearing unevenly (from either under or over inflation). I just wondered if there was a rule of thumb that pressures should be the same for the standard tyres as for the run flats, or perhaps that the standard tyres should generally be inflated to 10% more than runflats (due to weaker sidewalls etc... etc...?). The only info I could find from the tyre manufacturers was the max PSI for that specific tyre, but that does not help much because the "recommended" pressure will be way below that, and varies from car model to car model (due to loading and if the car is FWD or RWD etc.).
-
Any tyre experts out there? I've just bought a car that came with run-flats from the factory, but the previous owner switched to 'standard' tyres. (Pirelli cinturato P7's, with lots of tread, on the front axle, and brand new Michelin pilot super sports on the rear axle. So neither sets will need replacing for a long time). My questions are: 1. Do I need to be running different pressures in the standard tyres, to the recommended pressures for run flats? 2. The car has no spare wheel. Can anyone recommend an emergency repair kit, so I'm not stranded if I get a puncture? (Ideally one that doesn't ruin the c.£270 tyre, if used).
-
I've just bought the nicest car I've ever had, so thinking of getting a dash-cam, but I know very little about them. Anyone got any advice or guidance?

Pollution is not only about CO2 equivalent emissions, diesel cars emit loads more particulate matter (PM5, PM10 etc.) than petrol cars. It is this particulate matter that is strongly associated with health problems. If half the whingers on here were around in 1956 and 1968 I bet you would've argued against the 'clear air acts' and would've wanted our city's to still be full of coal fires etc., using the same arguments...

Nope.

The article also states Citeh get 20% of the fee (rather than of the profit). But do we assume the sages of this forum know more than a footy journalist?
