  1. Earlier in the season. Away to Newcastle for a start but especially at Everton.
  2. Steady on! He was good today but he was at fault (along with others) for some of the early goals. I think he needs to control his aggression and gets too personally involved at times. He had no need to get so stuck into Antonio.
  3. I am his biggest critic but Stephens was excellent today. Salisu was very good and brilliant Broja was a beast. The way he pushed the ball past Ogbonna and then surged past him was thrilling.
  4. It was only as open as it was because the UK couldn't be bothered to close it.
  5. It is not and never has been fully free movement.
  6. We were looking tired and overrun in the final few minutes. Three substitutions staggered sequentially would have taken the sting out of the Poles and given some respite to our players. Very strange.
  7. No substitutes used.
  8. Suckers. Spent all that time trying to control the game instead of going all out for goal. For the last ten minutes you could see that coming.
  9. He won’t have enough digits. He doesn’t live in Portsmouth.
  10. You nasty little man. So those people who scrimped and saved all their lives should have to lose all that they have built up in order to pay for the feckless who smoked, drank and gambled all their money away. There's nothing rich about owning your own house.
  11. I binge watched that a few months ago. Something like forty hours or more. An interesting concept and probably worth discussing once you’ve watched it all.
  12. Sorry to hear that. Are you sure it’s not long Covid?
  13. Designed for French roads with all those cobbles.
  14. Citroen Traction Avant?
  15. It would need more than pills and consent, but an old man can dream…
  16. Harriet Pavlou Me neither, but I would. If I could
  17. Does it have to be water or would any other convenient liquid be suitable?
  18. I didn’t actually say what you seem to think that I said. I gave an extreme example of the costs involved in transfer dealings and you accuse me of think that the same applies to our arrangements. By your calculations the club must be sitting on £18m in their bank accounts and we all know that’s not true. Your figure if £18m is way off the mark anyway. You should never believe the amounts quoted in the media.
  19. Wasn't that 'cold fusion'?
  20. Good point about the managerial payouts. If we include those it's almost as though we also had to pay the equivalent of a transfer fee for each new manager. Do we have a figure for these payouts?
  21. When I dumped our large CRT model, I think it might have been 28”, it was the first thing that I had thrown away that was in good working order. I could barely lift it when I bought it and it needed two of us to carry it to my car. At the tip a young man just picked it up with two hands and carried it to put on the pile with all the others. When I used to be in TV research up until 1982 the talk was all about being able to make 14” LCD screens for small TVs and portable PCs. Phillips had just bought a production line of Sharp in order to get some experience. It might have been the other way round.
  22. Quite a few of MLT’s were unpreventable and any penalty given because the ball was hammered at the arm from a short distance.
  23. Or anyone who is an extensive user of the internet, especially social media.
  24. Not strictly true that, is it.
