  1. Michael Sheen comes very close to being an impersonator but he's always impressed me. Guess I should mention Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Physically very different from the character in the book but totally embodies the spirit of the role.
  2. Except I didn’t you weird fuck. Tell you what mate, why not reply directly to any of my posts?
  3. Yes, completely agree - I wasn't really making much of a point except that the US hasn't always been the defender of democracy it likes to pretend it is. In the case of Venezuela I think it's a useful excuse and not much else.
  4. Hasn't always stopped the US before, just ask Salvador Allende.
  5. TBF if he's not playing then getting him to do carpentry isn't a bad idea.
  6. Can't see it myself - he's not big enough or quick enough for the premier league. He could be the best ball playing cb going (not that there was any evidence of him being anything special with the ball here) but as a cb he's just not physically cut out for it at higher levels.
  7. Completely agree. I think the reputation comes from being a bit more comfortable on the ball than a lot of cbs. People look at that and seem to place more importance on it than good defending (same with 'keepers too). Having said that, I don't think Edwards showed any great composure for us either. Good luck to him and all that but I can't see him being anything other than an average championship defender.
  8. Vance is a gaslighting cunt
  9. Wouldn't have thought so given we signed Downs when Stewart was fit. I do know what you're getting at though.
  10. Didn't someone (Alfie House?) say that we'd only contemplate getting Downs out the door if we had a replacement lined up? If that's the case then hopefully we'll start hearing about a new striker soon.
  11. Wow, you’re brave. Bet you’ve been waiting a couple of weeks just so you could have a pop. How sad. Anyway, as the quote suggests winning games is the only thing that really counts so yeah criticism is justified at the moment. Quite why that needs to be pointed out is beyond me. Shame you didn’t also read my posts that I wouldn’t have given Tonda the job until at least 10 games in, or the part where I said I had no idea how long the winning run would last and if it didn’t then he’d deserve some stick. Still, you’ve been waiting long enough so I hope that made you happy
  12. I could have put Bob Dylan in my original list too. I don't really like any of his songs with the exception of Subterranean Homesick Blues. Quite like All along the watchtower but only the Hendrix version.
  13. Mild cheddar. I'm not 'avin any of that foreign muck or cheeses with pretentious delusions of sophistication eaten by sandal wearing, latte drinking lefties.
  14. You had to edit that? Least it’s under 10,000 words this time.
  15. And then there's people with nearly 60k posts about people moaning about people moaning about people moaning
  16. Big thing is whether they start doing PPV (which I guess they probably will do). Must admit I haven't really watched Sky Boxing since matchroom left them but there isn't much domestic stuff to tempt me to watch them for boxing anyway. Yeah, I expect the next few years will be filled with mergers of streaming services and media companies in general.
  17. I won't bother to watch it live but I'll probably watch it later on Sunday. Generally I'm quite happy with Netflix getting involved in boxing and was pleased when they did the Crawford v Canello fight but this is a bit meh.
  18. I'll take 18 actual points out of 24 over your opinion any day of the week and twice on Sundays. If you find people repeating the only stat that means anything tedious then listening to people who have watched too much Carragher and fancy themselves as armchair pundits is ten times worse. I have no idea if the run will continue - if it doesn't then Tonda will deserve some stick but so far he's done a good job and I'm happy to give him credit for it. It was irrelevant to the point I was making which is that actual wins trumps opinion or placing it in some arbitrary pile of stats that may or may not mean anything.
  19. It's irrelevant because it wasn't the argument I was making. I could try and explain it again but once is enough.
  20. I've no idea and that's pretty much irrelevant. My point is you can do your monday morning quarterback sessions all you like but let's not relegate winning games into just another stat like possession percentage or xG.
  21. I've read some bollocks on here but this takes the biscuit. Winning games is the only thing that counts.
  22. Slow Horses is excellent and I'm looking forward to watching Down Cemetery Road. Slightly different but Dopesick stands out over the last few years. Bit of an oldie now but back in the day "Edge of Darkness" was a big favourite of mine.
  23. Depends how much Tonda wants to change things around for the sake of one position. If we go to a back 4 then I'd be playing Wellington instead of Manning too.
  24. Unfortunately probably nailed on if Fellows isn't fit. We don't really have many other options with both Mads and Jelert out so unless there's a kid able to make the jump to the first team then I'm not sure what other choices he has.
  25. Isn't that the whole point of betting?
