TABLE AFTER ROUND 3 The highest score, and most impressive given the circumstances and scenarios of some of the games, came from @Beelzebub who amassed a big 19 points to take him all the way up from 15th to 5th place, and only 5 points off the top. Between he and 1st place, @JoshBRFC now becomes the closest challenger to @Viva la FCB after scoring 17 points which is also very good. Both he and @Beelzebub got 3 perfect scores, and @Viva la FCB's lead is now only 1 point but he's just clinging on to 1st place... Other decent scores came from @Tommy, @Michael & @The Palace Fan (all 13 points) and @OrangeKhrush who went 1 better with 14 points.Only 8 points difference between 1st and 9th, and only 4 points between 10th and 21st! PREDICTIONS FOR ROUND 4 - HERE - Deadline is Saturday 29th June 2024 at 17.00 (BST)

"can't break the rules if you don't follow them" ..i will try that the next time the police pull me over

It was also pretty common for Sith to break their own rules this is apparent in several examples from the Clone Wars through the Rebellion era, Darth Sidious takes on Darth Tyranus before Darth Maul is dead. You can even see that Darth Sidious began to court Darth Vader before Darth Tyranus was dead. There were also instances of apprentices taking on their own apprentices that they keep hidden from their master. Darth Tyranus kind of takes on Asajj Ventriss during the Clone Wars. Darth Vader even takes on an apprentice codenamed Starkiller during the Dark Times.

Rüdiger was practicing with the ball today apparently so that hopefully bodes well.

Jokers. The lot of them. I used to live minutes away from where they're all from. Taking it with a pinch of salt as i honestly don't care, but not hearing good stuff from people i know who know of them and their associates.

Just checked the timeline and you are correct, for some reason I thought the Acolyte was set in his time and not 100 years before phantom but..I googled if Raven would appear in the Acolyte and its a strong rumour that he will cast by Kanu Reeves like you just pointed out its the wrong timeline but he was one of the most powerful Sith/Jedi's who could heal himself maybe he worked out eternal life, bit of a stretch your theory sounds bang on the money and more plausible I didn't notice the Sith in with the witches, will have to re watch that episode and pay more attention ha. Yes, was something about how they was born in a different way mentioned, think your bang on the money again. When did the rule of 2 come in though? seems like we could have alot of Sith running around at the moment

I bet Ronaldo didnt expect this when he opened a football academy in Georgia ten years ago.

How? The player has just jumped with the keeper? He's not put his arms across the keeper or leant into him. One of those where if it's disallowed we'd be wondering why, and bemoaning that keepers get too much protection.

Interesting. it was a legends concept wasn't it? a metal that shorts out lightsabres is smart for a Sith or Jedi armour but id still rather have Beskar, guess i'm just a Mandalorian at heart Haha yeah shame the Wookie died before we got a chance to see him in action I agree, as soon as Qimir said "peace is a lie" which is the first line of the Sith code i had my suspicions ha ..that's a good shout i can see that happening but think master Sol is hiding something. there was a Sith around that time line called Darth Raven who was also a Jedi, he mastered the light & dark arts. if it's not him directly they could be using his story line with master Sol, he seems conflicted, be interesting to see how his story plays out ..hey this is like Star Wars mafia wars trying to figure out who the bad guys are ..need to google Darth Raven and see if any rumours of him appearing in the Acolyte ha

It's just funny at this point. You almost have to admire it. Cannot help but think what an absolute waste though. Particularly this time around. This might be the kindest set of fixtures yet but it's the worst we've looked. I don't even think beating Slovakia is a given - which is pathetic.

Ronaldo is an issue and has started to act like a cunt. He'll hold them back going into the knockout stages.

This just goes way too far.... lock them up with the Ketchup on pizza people and let them slug it out till the death.. This looks like it's one of them 'I have spent all my money on drugs and now I only have this left in the fridge' student meals..

It's Netherlands unless Georgia beat Portugal or Czechia beat Türkiye. Then it'll be Slovakia. The simplicity of the old format is missed.

I've no interest in the national side so see myself as neutral here. I don't rate Southgate as a manager at all but I don't get the point in the abuse towards him or the booing of the team at the end of the last two games from those England fans out there either. Not many of the other top nations have impressed in the group stages and at the end of the day they've ended up winning the group anyway. Just judge at the end of the tournament (not saying people can't be critical, I completely get why there's criticism given the way Southgate has handled previous games in tournaments) and support the team as they did for that period in the second half and the players would probably feel in a much better place than having to worry about what's going to come at the end of a game if they don't get the win.

The other way of looking at it is you've conceded more goals than England. And one of those being against Scotland. So who does have the better defence...?

She gets her demographic quite clearly and knows how to milk them. That's a businessperson with music skill vs a musician with little to no business skill. It's not innovative and it's not meant to be.

Andor was great, imo the best of the Disney shows. It shows you can tell a great Star Wars story without even using the Jedi. I think some people got hyper critical of it because it was blatantly political - but it's blatantly against fascism, which is a central theme of the original Star Wars films I also don't see how any Star Wars fan of the prequels/Clone Wars wouldn't like Kenobi. I still haven't got round to watching the other animated Star Wars shows - honestly, I found Clone Wars hard to get into... but after the first season it stopped being Star Wars for kids and more of an animated Star Wars show for Star Wars fans generally, or Asoka. But because I like Star Wars, I think chances are I'd like them. To me, the Star Wars IP seems a lot more thought out than a lot of the Marvel crap they were just churning out - and I think Bob Iger was right to have Disney pull back on releasing so much of that shit. So far, I don't have many complaints about The Acolyte. They're touching on a part of the Star Wars universe timeline people generally don't know all that much about, so that's cool. I think a lot of shows suffer to draw in an interest in the first season because they can be a bit of a slow burn... this show doesn't do that. The first 5 minutes start the show off with a bang and it's not really a slow moving series - so I think it's pretty easy for people who like Star Wars style action to get into. So far, so good. Looking forward to the next episode.
