Oh, okay. I'll ring the club and ask then.

How long does your current XI stay the same like that though?

I'll do the same for the Fulham thread.

Easy does it

Guess you won't care about that title win either then

Happy belated birthday @DeadLinesman!

Get some oil in them. Or better fitting headphones. Or both.

Ah Nurburgring. That and Hockenheim to race and pick up speed on the old f1 games Also, I know its only been a few weeks but forgotten what to do each weekend without F1 . Felt so good to watch it again after more months than usual without it!

'hasn't actually contributed to his team doing well this season'. Really?

Is it?

To be fair, I've seen De Bruyne do that a hell of a lot more this season. De Bruyne sometimes stands out like a sore thumb when it comes to that side. Tracks back so much more, gets tackles in and spreads the play with ease. His ability to pick a pass on any part of the pitch is just ridiculous. I agree football shouldn't just be about stats but the influence both have on their sides is pretty much the same.

Like Henderson is to get the ball, and give it to the front 3 Both players have been superb and both players have performed when it mattered. Both players very much work in the systems they're asked to flourish in.

The picture hasn't loaded and it's just a load of numbers and words, a load of gibberish. So yes, sounds about right.

Imola

I don't think so as not registered in initial team for the knockout rounds.

Cheeky git.

Positive?

That's quite a narrow way to look at it, to be honest. There's probably hundreds, or probably thousands of police officers who approached danger and stopped it in a time where public were breaking rules and gathering in crowds etc. You say been in the media for weeks for kneeling on people's heads and tasering men at garages. They were isolated incidents and don't (I hope) represent the whole of the police force they work for. Police officers deserve a pay rise. You can't not give it to them just because of the actions of one or two. Also, that police officer who knelt on the guys head (who was carrying a knife) was promptly dealt with so it doesn't affect him, does it? That's like saying doctors shouldn't get a pay rise because of those that were responsible for the maternity scandal on Shropshire. Doesn't fit, does it? The police do ridiculous amounts of extra work that doesn't get reported on. Think of all the domestic violence cases they tend to. The people who get stabbed and how they go searching and arresting these criminals. Everyone clamours for them to get paid more when they're the first people on the scene at terror attacks. Their penchant for running to danger, like fire officers, ambulance paramedics, instead of running away from it is commendable. Also, nurses are exempt from this payrise announced because they agreed to one previously in 2018 for a set amount of years. I get the sentiment though given the risks they've put themselves on to in the current situation. Supermarkets are in the private sector so wouldn't be included. They would get separate pay rises based on their company policies. They're not run by the government. This isn't to say that I don't think they kept the country going. They of course did their part. But so did many others.

Gotta hand it to him, he tried.

I don't like mushrooms but that does look great. My dad's been baking a lot. Made a lot of cake recently and they taste amazing. Ginger cake last week and a maple syrup one at the weekend. Part of me thinks he's secretly auditioned for Great British Bake Off and he's practising on us

@nudge Where's that calendar you had for this year? Was dinosaurs on it
