  1. And the population over the year grew by how many percent?
  2. In effect a VPN is like a friend that asks websites on your behalf.
  3. I saw him perform in ‘Son of Oblomov’ in 1966 (?) just after my wife and I first met. I thought he was hilarious burnt she was left wondering what she had let herself in for. A couple of years ago on a rainy February Sunday in Sydney we went north on a train trip to Woy Woy for somewhere to go. A girl in a small shopping mall told us that Spike used to pop in there regularly. His parents had emigrated there and he lived with them for a while and wrote Puckoon in their house. He called the place "the world's only above-ground cemetery" but they still celebrate him and they have named a bridge after him.
  4. False equivalence. The reason for playing a ball into space is so that one of our players can get on the end of it. There’s no point in playing a ball into space if it’s going to get picked up by the opposition.
  5. Quite so. Zones don’t score goals, players do.
  6. You really must learn more about statistics. They have no place in football.
  7. I think you’re being a bit unkind there. To pigshit.
  8. Non sequitur
  9. And when would be win his tenner? You can always cherry pick in order to find the results that you want.
  10. It doesn’t close then. It SLAMS SHUT
  11. Companies who say “Your call is important to us” and then proceed to not answer their phones. Yes Marshalls Van dealer, you know who I mean.
  12. That answer depends on who’s asking the question. If it’s a redneck with a MAGA cap and a baseball bat then a diplomatic response is most advisable.
  13. He is too aggressive. This leads to him over hitting the ball. In midfield what is needed is someone with a cool head. Someone who can pick up intercepts, snuff out threats and play silky, controlled passes to his teammates.
  14. With any scientific report the first and most important thing is to find out who commissioned it.
  15. Yes, eventually, but it takes more than just a degree.
  16. Agreed. I saw it as another pre=season game with a chance to get fitter and build on team relationships.
  17. But that’s like having a new tractor and not using it in case it gets muddy,
  18. I don’t mind him leaving but what concerns me is who takes his place.
  19. Good idea. Just as long as he’s playing against us.
  20. I’m with you all the way. What concerns me about this new method of adding time is that there’s no incentive to get a move on. Players a managers will simply say “ stick it on at the end”.
  21. He must have been due a testimonial by about now.
  22. Scientists don’t necessarily lie. They are just economical with the truth.
  23. — World Meteorological Organization (WMO) The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) AR5 is slightly less clear but scientifically says the same thing, — IPCC, AR5 My point was that there is a long term pattern which predates modern climate change. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_hurricane
  24. Atlantic hurricanes undergo a 50 to 70 year cycle known as the “Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation”. Or they may not.
  25. Or regret going to live there. I know that part of East London and West Essex very well.
