Just seen Arigo Sacchi in Thornhill Greggs.

Yeah, that's mad. Should be able to get one in a bar for around 20 quid. Although they have preferred/rare vintages which are sometimes more. Delirium will almost certainly have one and there are plenty of other bars around there that should have it.
-
They are hard to find, and expensive, but if you ever get the chance to try a Cantillon Gueze, do it!
-
They do look pretty similar.

Agree completely. We could have got Vardy booked for barrelling into Ramsdale late, if Rambo had rolled around a bit and we'd made a fuss. Then he would have definitely gone for the foul on Suga, which may well have been a red on its own, from the angle i saw. We would have actually won then.

No he doesn't!

Anyone into Lambics / sours? I've found over the past few years that lager-style beers just make me feel shit, but I'm not a fan of lukewarm bitters or a lot of the very hazy IPAs that you seem to see everywhere now. Sour beers though, give me less gyp and are often very interesting. Lambic is the original king of sours but there are a lot of nice sours produced all over the place now. They go well with food.

That's fucking ridiculous. If we'd put Taylor on, and not Fraser... plus the ref was a cunt in the first half.

Looks a bit like a Tranny but worth a pump either way if you're in your sixties. My mate reckons ladyboys are top shags anyway. More physical.

Badenoch or Jenrick. Fucking hell!

Sounds like a Dubai real estate advert. Fucking gash.

Not sure I agree. Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear sites is now inevitable but the last couple of days / weeks have shown that their technological superiority is huge and decisive. Iran has ended up looking weak and stupid. They will be working flat out to weaponise their nukes as they no longer have Hamas or Hezbollah posing any serious threat. It's all they have left but Isreal will probably destroy it all in one evening. What happens then? Unless a major power steps in to help Iran then probably not a lot. There are no other countries in the region that would mourn the emasculation of Iran, with the possible exception of Asad in Syria. There will likely be some small flare ups in response in Iraq, Bahrain, maybe Kuwait, some unrest in Turkey, maybe, some simple minded marches in London, Paris and so on, probably a few terrorist attacks, potentially in escalation in Yemen, but I don't see it escalating into a wider war.

Like I said.... Israeli attacks on strategic Iranian sites coming your way soon.

I was prepared to stick with Martin provided we were competitive in matches but the way the team is set up tonight is idiotic. Dibling and Fernandes hung out to dry. One of our best players, KWP, wasted on the bench. Changing the shape and set up constantly. I presume the intention was for Dibling and Fernandes to pick it up between the lines and for Fraser and Cornet to run beyond them. Worked OK for ten minutes but it goes to shit if you can't find those deep forwards and leaves us exposed. Needlessly complicated. Play a striker, allow the back 4 to look for him, have Cornet running off him instead. Have Fraser on the bench, not KWP who is far, far better.

Ipswich are crap and will get relegated. Villa had loads of good breaks and chances to put the game to bed but fecked them up then gifted Ipswich a goal with some terrible defending. I wouldn't be at all surprised if us, Ipswich and Leicester go down, assuming no one else gets a big points deduction.

Is he trying to create material to support him claiming he's not mentally fit to stand trial in the future? Either that, or he's a wreck.
-
I'd give BBD a go through the middle. He's mobile, got a decent jump and clearly willing to try to buy some free kicks. --------------BBD------------ KWP--------------------Dibling -------Fernandes--Lallana---- -------------Downes---------- Taylor-----Jan---THB---Suga Rambo PLEASE no triple substitution on 60 minutes.

Lol. Don't be a moron. There are Lebanese birds shaking their tits around all over the nightclubs and beaches of Beirut. You'd love it.

Quite. The short term aim for Israel is to keep escalating until they have an excuse to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities. The long term aim is to force all non-Israelis out of Gaza and the West Bank, but that will just move their current issues to a different border. There was a chance to create a two state solution a few decades ago but it's fucked now and will always be, I think. Eliminating Hezbollah, crushing Hamas, in the way they have been, just creates a new group in Iraq, in Yemen, in Jordan, in Kuwait, in Syria etc. In hindsight, "Israel" should have been put in Nebraska or somewhere like that.

I wonder what he's getting paid at the moment. Presumably not much relative to other first teamers. There must be a deal to be done where we put him on a new contract at, say, 70k a week, with a release clause. Would be attractive to him as long as the release clause is realistic as he'd net a big chunk of cash even if he leaves next summer. I think we can be confident he would justify the wage if he stays and confident he will raise us good money if we go down. He gets the safety net of a longer deal, way more cash over the next ten months, plus knowledge that he can leave when a big boy comes calling.
