Coffee being sold in a bag??? don't take the piss Are people that bloody stupid... In a world where we are trying to reduce the amount of waste we produce some daft bunch of idiots think it's ok to be throwing away another empty bag 4 or 5 times a day..

It's not often I would say this about a Spurs player but I could take a liking to Davinson Sanchez... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/index.html Looks like it might be his specialty...

RIP... killed in a 3 way car crash in New Mexico about 9pm last night

This was an odd find... didn't know if I should put it here on in the music section...

Nothing like the royal seal of approval to keep us peasants happy is there...

Well the rules state that a penalty can be given if the hand or arm is beyond the natural silhouette of the body 'regardless of intent' In the City v Spurs game a goal was ruled out for 'accidental handball' and I say handball, it wasn't even that was it.. but you can't rule a goal out for that if the accidental or unintentional handball rule applies surely??? this is the horrible grey area we are talking about here! make it clear, if it touches the hand or arm regardless of intent it's either a penalty or disallowed goal...

Personally I think anything that is available should be used, It's either in ( in which case use it ) or it's not! sounds to me like they are cherry picking what they do and don't want to use and what rules apply and when.. It's one or the other. @RandoEFC covered this a while back and I agreed with him that when it comes to the handball situation for example much as though some can seem daft, that the simple rule is if it touches or comes off your arm/hand regardless of where your arm/hand is or if it was accidental or not then a goal should be ruled out or a penalty given. At least this way it's crystal clear for all... annoying as fuck obviously if it was totally accidental but at least the rule is clear and it applies to all without fail so that makes the judgement fair even if we don't agree with it. VAR should be advising the ref on anything he may have missed or where his call was on instinct perhaps incorrect and for that he should be using the pitch side monitor to put right any error in judgement, We keep giving refs a hard time but then they have the ability to improve their decision making and then it promptly gets taken out of their hands it would seem... We are going to have to allow this first season proper to gauge if it has been more a success or a failure as far as the fans and decisions are concerned.. Either way we will not be happy, we moan if someone gets away with a blatant handball for example and because they are not reviewing other fouls/incidents, and yet we don't want to have to wait for VAR to make a decision because we feel it slows the game down even though we demand justice..

Yea mate they do.. However, the Premier League have enforced some of their own criteria with a view to minimising disruption to the flow of the game. Firstly, referees have been told to avoid on-pitch reviews at the pitch-side screen whenever possible. These types of review are known to cause the longest delays. Instead, on-pitch referees have been told to trust the advice they are given by VAR. There has also been a pledge from former referee Neil Swarbrick, the man leading VAR's implementation in the Premier League, to stick to a 'higher threshold' for reviewing decisions and only intervene in the case of 'clear and obvious' errors (does not apply to offsides, remember).

Whats not helping matters is that the Referees have been told to stay away from the match side monitors as much as possible in an effort to keep the flow of the game going and been asked to put their trust in VAR..

Most of the teachers I see these days are kids... not like them horrible ex army nurse types we used to get when I was a kid..

Good, get all those horrible kids off the streets...

Indeed, some are terrible but there are a few gems among them, Every now and then I search around to see what's new out there and stumbled on this so gave it a watch.. There is a lot of Asian stuff on YouTube and I mostly watch the films like 'Red Cliff' ( heavy on the battle aspect ) so probably not your cup of tea but still enjoyable to watch if you can tolerate subtitles that is... This is the first tv series I have started watching though..

Another mass shooting on the motorway in Texas... at least 20 dead so far https://metro.co.uk/2019/08/31/texas-shooters-open-fire-on-busy-motorway-leaving-20-injured-10664554/

Lifted his spirits a bit for sure, don't know if it was blind luck a tactical masterstroke by Lampard but he kept faith in the face of the nay sayers and played him against both the clubs he played against last season when he was in the Championship with Villa so they may have been more the defensive level he was used to going against previously which may have helped the cause.. either way it's given him a springboard now..

He played for the under 23's on Friday for the full 90 minutes... Looks close to me..

Nice work.. very in depth detail, must have taken a while to put together

Did you do that write up??

Don't know if this will interest anyone on here but I have been watching a series called 'Novoland Eagle Flag' on YouTube I have found it to be very good, Special Effects have been pretty decent for the most part but obviously not flawless but all the same very watchable, Has subtitles and a little hint of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon style Martial Arts which is normal for these kinds of productions but again not overly silly or unwatchable.. Some of the sets and Scenery are fantastic along with the costumes.. Here is a trailer for it... only up to episode 4 of 56 ( according to Wikipedia )

Can you imagine receiving that text from Nudge one night... She must be drunk, lonely or horny... hopefully all three I would think to myself.. Imagine how gutted you would be after rushing round and finding out she has just locked herself out because the key snapped off in the keyhole.. "Yea, but I thought..... nevermind! "

This happened at a German Safari Park... Got to respect the power.... I used to watch the old Tarzan films when I was a kid on Saturday mornings and always thought Rhinos did not look that big until I got to go to a Safari Park and saw them up close... Like tanks they are..

My missus gets bitten the shit out of... I never get bitten by them, don't know why, perhaps it's because I am cold blooded

Azeem is stalking that girl from the coffee shop....
