  1. 9y/o shot dead in Liverpool . RIP. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-62642060
  2. Vestergaard and Bertrand are the 2 highlights. Combined, costing approx £15-20m, and wages approx £150k/w. Add to that, Perez who has been inconsistent at the very best and nowhere near good enough for the £30m we paid. Soumare hasn't really performed as we'd have expected - £18m. God knows what wages he's on. I'd have loved Praet to have worked out and I still think he could under a different manager, if he's not sold - £17m approx. Benkovic in 2018 - £13m. Ghezzal - meant to be the 2nd coming of Riyad Mahrez - £13m Adrien Silva - missed half the season due to an epic transfer mishap - £19m. Iborra - £13-14m. Left and went back to Spain after 18 months. That's up to 2017. So 5 years worth. Not to say it's all bad - Maddison, Pereira, Tielemans, Soyuncu, Justin, Castagne, Fofana, Iheanacho, Maguire, Daka have all been signed in that time too. But where we were famed for solid recruitment, that reputation is slipping away with more bad than good signed in the last few years.
  3. Along with Riise/Cisse/Garcia/Torres, he was one of my favourites in that mid- to late-00s Liverpool squad.
  4. I don't mind Leeds so I hope they continue as they have started this season, but it is very early days. They seem to approach games how I only wish we could - that performance against Chelsea was superb and full of energy. Can be difficult to keep that up... Shocked in what respect? It's wages paid towards average players that don't even play that are the issue.

    Oh it's so tempting. Ruining Tommy's day is what makes life worth living.

    SA ripping through England in their 2nd innings. 141-7. Nortje's pace too hot to handle.
  10. We can't afford to lose him, no. I'm hoping he will sign a new contract. He'll be deserving of it regardless because of how he's performed the last 12-18 months. I heard one of Newcastle's offers was an initial £20m then £20m worth of add-ons. No wonder it was described as 'insulting' by us

    I can't remember who it was with but I had a conversation with someone on here about SA cricket squad and that you're pretty well set for a good few years with your bowling attack. So many options for different tours/series/pitches. Rabada Nortje Ngidi Jansen Mulder Phelukwayo Olivier That's some attack and all under 30 - so you've got at least 5/6 years of a selection of those. And even for spin, Maharaj and Shamsi are very good too for different formats. It's formidable to say the least.

    Bet @MUFC has a good use for it.
  13. An unwritten code that you're not allowed to go to a party and dance? Maybe that code needs to be changed. The position of PM doesn't automatically equate to you not being able to have fun, and have all kind of life sucked out of you to become a miserable straight-laced goody-two-shoes. She's literally done nothing wrong - what's crazy about it? And is it worse because it's done on camera? Why would anyone be fired/suspended for dancing at a party? Do you really think people in military or other 'serious' walks of life don't go out to parties or enjoy themselves when they're not at work?
  14. Exactly! First time in a while where I've said to myself 'some people just want to watch the world burn'. Let her have a bit of fun! It's not illegal (unlike some PMs having parties), and it's not bad to have a sing and a dance at a party ffs The fact she is even asked to justify it by media and other MPs is a joke in itself too.

    Very, very unfortunate dismissal for Dean Elgar against England. Flicked off his elbow and trickled back on to the stumps, bails just about dropped off.
  16. Finland's PM was filmed at a party, just having fun. Yet some people didn't like it https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-62588480
  17. Did you know when you put stuff into the Recycle Bin it doesn't actually go in a physical bin?

    Try now . I've kept it as Mini Games. Separating them out is a possibility but may make the list look quite long...?

    @Bluewolf - have a look now in Other Football section. I can separate them out even more, or just keep it as it is there now as a 'Mini Games' sub-section...?
