Wish I hadn't bothered with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Only good thing to come out of that is I really want to see Wonder Woman now. IMDb were kind as they almost give it a 7/10. Only a 6 from me. I mean really. Negan and Maggie married to each other. Simba playing the butler. What a mind fuck. And I'm not having Ben Affleck as Batman.

@Stan or anyone else seen any of The Trial yet? Watched the first episode. Already got the missus and I coming at it from different angles.

I had the misfortune of watching this the other weekend and agree with you. So bad. Recently watched The Green Mile again which is a 9/10 for me. Great film. Watched 13 Hours: Secret Soldiers of Benghazi which an absolute top, top film. 10/10. Saw Fast & Furious 8 at the pictures the other week. Was alright. 7/10. Got Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice tonight, so will let you know.

I'm similar. I do seem to get drawn to shows that are based around lawyers, cases, etc. Going off track for a bit but I've done jury service once and would love to do it again. Was fortunate enough to get called up to The Old Bailey. Nearly got sent home without getting on anything but eventually got put onto a jury then spent almost a month there. Really enjoyed it. As I'm only 24 I've not got a lot of experience to call upon, but in hindsight I wish I had trained to be a barrister.

I've recorded it as am intrigued with the format. Hope to catch up with yesterday's and tonight's later on. I've got too much on Sky to allow me to watch Netflix as well, which I'm a bit gutted with as there a number of shows I want to watch including House of Cards, Daredevil and Lucifer. My current go to shows are The Good Fight, Madam Secretary and Street Outlaws. Like a bit of Fast n' Loud when it's on as well. Broadchurch was great and glad they stopped while it was still worth watching. Watched the first season of Mr Robot but stopped after the first three of the second series. Wasn't enjoying it at all. Was the same for Billions. Now just waiting for The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones to return.

Hurrah For Gin by Katie Kirby. Quite funny generally but will be particularly amusing to those of us who have had kids. Transfer of Power by Vince Flynn is up next.

Proper jealous. I haven't been to Florida for a couple of years. Love it out there. First time out I rented a convertable as well. Gotta be done, but won't lie, all the rest of the times since I've rented the biggest most comfortable beast possible with Antarctic level A/C. Mirror all that @Lucas said. Naples is a nice place to visit as well. I'd suggest doing at least an overnight for Miami, and make sure you take a look around Florida Keys. Promised myself a trip on a Harley next time I'm out. Cuba is next on my list.

It will definitely be interesting to see.

The example you use though is one of those 'once in a blue moon' ones. Josh Bohui could be a top, top player. Players of that calibre will always be snapped up by the big clubs. It is very rare that a 'smaller' club will keep hold of players that are considered the very best. The same with Ian Carlo Poveda Ocampo [although that one was a different situation altogether]. The four players I've listed earlier though are all Academy players that the First Team are now benefitting from. There's also players like Alfie Mawson that was a Brentford Academy boy. In my opinion he should have been kept but wasn't. Even so though the club has done well from the sale to Swansea.

Interesting. The main players to come through from the B Team this season though are Academy players. Tom Field, Reece Cole, Zain Westbrooke, Chris Mepham. That's not a bad return for any Academy, especially one that it isn't worth investing in.

So you have bought into the B Team project? It's been a season now since the Academy was closed. With what you understand to be happening wih it all do you think that the money is better spent on the B Team than a youth development programme? I'd also like to know what your thoughts were when you initially heard that the Academy was closing.
