I went to Israel as a teenager back in the 70’s it was a fantastic place. Did all the Bethlehem & Jerusalem stuff, but the highlight for me was a resort on the Sea of Galilee. I keep trying to take the snap dragon there, but she’s a bottle job and won’t go. Personally, I love the Greek islands, the people are fantastic, weather great in spring & summer, and there’s some beautiful beaches and little coves. Kos being my favourite. South Florida is also a personal favourite, and the west coast of FLA, Tampa/ St Pete is beautiful . Cities, Dublin Miami & Montpellier stand out. For the crack it’s Playa del Inglés / Maspalomas, its like 18-30’s holiday for 50 year olds. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Probably the most sensible criteria we’ve ever used, they only needed to count away games for members and it would have been perfect. Counting games that fall out of ST remit is clearly fairest as is prioritising memberships bought pre Wigan over post Wigan. My eldest son had a mad scramble for EFL & Milan tickets with members signed up just to get tickets for those games despite having bought his membership pre season. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It really is a bit of a joke how ****ing long they’re taking to decide or announce it. It’s only 2 games, one is clearly first choice. What’s so complicated about it? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Agreed. I’ve wanted out since Maastricht, another 21 months isn’t going to matter. I don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn't matter now, because DD has been to the mountaintop. And looked over. And he’s seen the Promised Land and we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land on 31/12/2020 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I thought anyone could define themselves as a bloke or a chick without surgery nowadays. If Martina believes that Mac is paid more because he's a bloke, why doesn't she just define as a male ( she's halfway there anyway), and she'll automatically get a pay rise. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We need numbers in the central midfield area, whether that’s a 3-5-2 or 4-2-3-1 or even a diamond with the full backs pushed on, we’ll get passed to death if we don’t. The only way a traditional( or as it’s become known, a Merrington) 4-4-2 can work is if you sit in with 2 banks of 4 & one of the strikers drops in. Basically Leicester when they won the league. I don’t think we’ve got the players to play that way. No Vardy, although long could probably do an Okazaki defensively, isn’t going to pop up with valuable goals. For all their talent Boufal & Tadic aren’t going to knock great passes like Mahrez. We’d end up just sitting so deep, with no out ball. The key to scoring goals in any system is getting enough blokes forward, something we’ve failed miserably to do since Ron left. How many times the past 2 seasons has there been one or two players only busting a gut to get into the box? Tadic, Davis, Boufal, Redmond , JWP all like to drift around outside of it, picking up the pieces and recycling the ball. They don’t gamble, don’t get beyond the striker and don’t show any desire to get on the end of things. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

God, we're going to have numerous posts bemoaning the unfairness of the ticket allocation for the next month. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If it’s no big deal, why did The FA go to wales when Wembley was being rebuilt. They could have used OT Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Let’s see what an ex Barca, Man Utd & Bayern striker makes of him. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Having watched football for so long. Has there ever been a semi final at a non neutral ground in the history of English or European football. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Just shows how big a part luck plays. The Skates got Barnsley, WBA, Cardiff in their semi final draw, looks like we’re getting 3 of the top 5. Utd look the weakest of the 3 at the moment, but who knows come April. Just don’t want Spurs, losing at their home ground will grate for a while. Dream scenario would be Leicester to come back in their game, draw them, then Utd in final. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I thought the keeper played well, particularly first half. Very solid, probably have a couple more points if The Mummy was dropped earlier. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The Corbyn supporters seem to miss the point that Russia wanted to make it obvious they did it. They wanted to send out a message. Corbyn knows full well they did it, but his lifetime obsession with going against the West and siding with our opponents overrides anything. Had the suspicion been it was a Mossad operation, would Jezza be asking the same questions ? Course he wouldn’t. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I know he’s a skate, but quite impressed with Cook. He seems a character & his side play some really good stuff Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

If you make genuine attempt at ball, it’s yellow. If there’s no attempt to play ball, it’s red Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Missed a sitter and now a pen, but I bet it’s Carrillo or Redmonds fault if we lose Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Now let’s see how much influence hughes has managed to input. Normally we’d sit back, hopefully we’ll go for a second Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Had that been Carrillo, this place would have been in meltdown, because it’s Gabbi, we have pony about good save. We should be 1-0 up, awful miss. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The FA won’t give a shiny shiete about fairness, all they’re interested in is £’s. They’re setting a precedent that will bite them in the arse. Chelsea are talking about playing at Wembley for 3 seasons, that’s an immense advantage in the cups. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Newsnight used the same background in a picture of Gavin Williamson a few weeks back. Don't recall little Owen Jones and the other lefties complaining about that. Funny enough neither did the Tories, they probably thought a grown up audience was perfectly capable of deciding it's just a ****ing picture not a political slur Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Where was #blackbox in 2013 when he was tearing it up for Basel? Don't tell me, we had Adam Lallana so didn't need him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They’ve picked up 1 more point than us over the past 6 games. Their last 2 games were both at home, to teams right in the relegation mix, they picked up 1 point and didn’t score in either. We have a game in hand on them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Swansea are in it as well Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Although it’ll be a blow going into the bottom 3, I think we need Huddersfield to lose. We’re more likely to catch them, than stay above Palace Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
