  1. How the hell can you play another player offside?
  2. That means nothing. He makes mistakes and sometimes gets away with them. Last night he made two short passes straight to a Leicester player. The first led to a good chance for them and a good save from McCarthy, the second led straight to their goal. There’s something wrong with his visual appreciation of the situation. He just doesn’t see the opposition player. It’s not as though they were miskicks or underhit. The way that Maddison swept past him was not what you expect of a Premier League defender.
  3. That’s one of the indirect consequences of VAR.
  4. They’ve only mentioned the 9-0 three times so far.
  5. We’ve just polished off a takeaway that I walked back with. Prawn purri , meat rogon josh, vegetarian balti and pilau rice and a chicken tikka starter which I shall save until tomorrow.
  6. If that happens then I will give them the credit for it but there again I’m not a loon 😇
  7. BT do a monthly pass for £25 if that’s any good. Seems a bit steep to me but there again I’m one of the mugs who has the full set on Virgin Media.
  8. It’s on BT tomorrow, which is all that matters. Whether I shall be allowed to hog the tele for two hours on a Saturday night is another matter. I have fallbacks but one is cold and the other uncomfortable.
  9. Sold on at a fraction of face value.
  10. It would not surprise me to find out that food vouchers were being traded on the black market.
  11. No, bike!
  12. A letter in The Times today, Sir, If a cup of tea counts as a picnic, does that mean that when we’re allowed back into the pubs we don’t need a Scotch egg?Iain McCoubrey Letcombe Regis, Oxon
  13. At home to Arsenal
  14. We are number two
  15. It's only 15:25. There's still a lot of the day left yet but if as someone above suggested they are waiting on the result of tonight's draw then I wouldn't expect a decision until tomorrow.
  16. Sometimes they explode before they hit the ground.
  17. The R rate is a broad average and what this example demonstrates is the variation in the K number which is a measure of the spread in how many other people any particular person infects. In this case there seems to be a super-spreader. Maybe there is something about this individual’s behaviour that causes the raised infections?
  18. Dickheads. How can it be a picnic if you don’t sit down? Isn’t this the same Force that employed drones to spy on people congregating in groups of one in the open countryside?
  19. Why not blame your auto-correct? I always blame my iPad. Sometimes I swear it even changes the text after I have posted it.
  20. I am certainly no expert but as you say it’s the post that becomes redundant and not the employee. I would have thought that the employer must provide an alternative employment of at least equal status and remuneration as the previous one. There are sources of help out there who are much more knowledgeable than me. ACAS for example.
  21. Thanks, you won’t be surprised to find that it’s a surprise to me
  22. "We were storming The Capitol, it's a revolution and I got maced" (to paraphrase) Well, yeah, derbrain.
  23. Then the 4th round becomes the 3rd round.
