    So essentially they couldn’t get enough people to pay for the subscription and PPV, even if only some events, is the only way to make it work? Cos DAZN was definitely marketed as the future of Boxing through subscription rather than an out of date PPV system

    In the earlier promotions of Dazn, yeah, they did say a few things along those lines. But times change and the odd massive event needs to be PPV. The basic streaming subscription still offers the best boxing schedule in the world on a consistent basic. There’s been some great fights this year.

    How comes DAZN have gone to PPV…no point buying a subscription.

    Not that I’d pay to watch KSI, but other fights they have are down as PPV too.

    If the fights big enough then it will be on PPV, eg AJ-Usyk, Eubank-Benn in 6 weeks. It’s the only way to raise the money that the fighters want/deserve for these big fights. The subscription itself is still well worth it in my opinion as Boxings my favourite sport and I watch majority of events, however there’s a lot more on there than just boxing and the on demand content is pretty good too.

  3. Just seen Elliot’s goal on MOTD. Great finish, how are Liverpool fans rating him? Always knew he’d be great after his time with us. Do you think he can go to the top in the sense of a permanent starter and get in the England team? Hope so, likeable guy and I remember meeting him. Crazy that he’s still only 19.

  4. I think Drew is going to be the man to finally take the titles off Roman. Not sure if the circumstances but given the location of the event I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see it happen. 

  5. Fancy Everton away, Blackburn and Lincoln at home. But because my team is involved all 3 will lose.

    Also looking at a few away teams that I see are good odds… Preston, West Brom And Bristol. Then even better odds you’ve got Leeds and Barnsley. With the unpredictability of the Championship and start to the season I don’t see many trends in the current data.
     

    Small stakes on a mixture of the above teams. They’re all long shots basically just fun, don’t expect anything, just want to see if any upsets. Gauge how each league start before more serious bets in a few weeks when we have a bit more data.

     

    EDIT - well that was truly awful with the ‘fun’ long shots.:dunce: 
    A few £2 bets down the drain!

    Got very very lucky. Decided to go £10 double on Derby/Boro double 5 mins before before kickoff. Derby against 10 men equalised in the 89th minute then won in stoppage time. 
     

    The Championship feels even more insane this year xD.

    Tough one mate - as he went on the attack the same week the reference was sent to him. He legit had a meltdown and tried to pull up 3 of us who just all happen to be in the union over non matters. That was horrendous too but we met, and it was done and cleared up. (Sorta).  He throws his toys out the pram if anyone wants to seek a new challenge. If he wanted to keep me - he could’ve just written something else! 

    His lies are around two things. 1) a conversation that never happened and 2) an outrageous claim about my professionalism that if it was an issue would’ve been brought up in the 2.5 years I’ve been at the school. And it hasn’t. 
     

     

    Wow that’s absolutely disgusting behaviour. I’d want to be away from him asap anyway. What a cunt he sounds. 
     

    I never understand those people who want to hold people back. It’s a selfish way to go through your professional life, it irritates me.

    Sounds to me like he values you in your role but is a selfish cunt and wants you all for himself. 


    Quite the opposite - A girl who works under me and is very good at her job I’ve been giving advice to this week about applying for a job in a different department. She wanted to go for it and then had doubts and I encouraged her to apply as it’s good experience and she may surprise herself and get the job and further develop herself.

    I had an opportunity to move school next year. However it was blocked due to my boss lying in a character reference so I have huge anxiety about returning to work next week. Didn’t sleep last night at all.
     

    I need to hold him to account. He has friends in very high places but am looking at my options to file a grievance. Have asked for union advice. Very, very, shit situation. The irony is he encouraged me to apply for that position too. 

    Wow that’s awful mate.

    Did he lie about you so they wouldn’t take you on and he could keep you?

    Easier said than done but you haven’t done anything wrong so you shouldn’t feel shit. He absolutely needs to be held accountable.

    Well people are all going to have their own opinions on this. But I'd have had it even or Usyk leading after round 9. Then as we all know, Usyk won the last 3 rounds. Usyk threw and landed an incredible amount of punches. I do think that Joshua fought a much better fight than the 1st fight in Tottenham which I went to see. But Usyk was still the clear winner in my opinion. But I don't agree with those who have been slating Joshua. It is uncalled for, Joshua is an excellent boxer who has proven himself. He lost to the best pound for pound boxer in the world, there's no shame in that. 

    I also agree about Andy Lee, he is excellent in his analysis. Moreover, Laura Woods is very level headed in her assessment of this fight and she shut that idiot Jamie O'Hara up, when he was coming out with his nonsense as regards to Joshua. 

    Fair points mate. I was also there. Why didn’t we meet for a pint?! Ha 

    First 9 were either way but yeah Usyk got the last 3. I really hope he fights and beats Fury now. AJ will be back.

  9. I disagree that AJ lost clearly. I’ve watched it back without commentary and it’s much better. Usyk still won but not by much. AJ was much better than the first fight… first fight was 8-4 in rounds to Usyk. This was much closer. I had it even or even AJ ahead going into the last 3 rounds. Then Usyk won all 3. 

    Sky have become embarrassing and cringey to be honest and their whole team needs a shakeup. Dazn’s production team and punditry is the best in the world at the minute, Mike Costello, Laura Woods, Andy Lee, etc. No surprise given they have the best promoter in Hearn.

     

  10. Focused a lot on this the last few months. Small gains as always, been walking to work for weeks whilst it's been nice outside and then jogging back. A good few mile a day there.

    Can anyone recommend any good long distance runs to do and get involved with up narrrfff. Lancashire/Yorkshire ideally.

  11. 8 months in... pharmaceutical industry is tough and has taken a lot of my time. But i bloody love the challenge and learning new skills. All is good thus far.

    Edwards second British UFC Champion after defeating Usman Kamaru

    Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. 

    Somehow stayed up for this and it was well worth it.

  13. Fury fails drugs tests, has a meltdown and messes the division up. Fans praise him.

    AJ finally has a melt down after a decade of being the face of boxing in the UK and hypocrites attack him, as they always do.

    This man changed the way boxing is viewed worldwide and saved a dead scene in the UK. 

    He's an inspiration to me and always will be, much more than the other lying hypocrite. 

    I hope Fury fights Usyk i really do, he would be the favourite and rightly so. But it needs to happen. The man is now demanding 500m after previously saying he would fight for free. Money doesn't matter....same man who gives all his fight purses to charity apparently!? Just shutup and make the fight.

    Looking forward to this, AJ needs to walk him down and work the body. anyone else watching it?

    Always mate, always.

    Was at the first fight, was something special. Hoping AJ can become a 3x Champ here, Usyk is P4P number one for me, so going to be some ask.

    There is genuinely so much shite on Netflix. Probably the best thing you could do is unsubscribe until you've piled up 4-5 things from Netflix you want to watch and then subscribe for a couple of weeks or maybe months if you're a big pussy and your binge game ain't great.

    Prime has comfortably overtaken Netflix for me now as basically any film I can think of, you can pay about £2.50 and just watch it on demand. Might be on top of the subscription fee but for me it's worth it for the convenience. I've given up searching for films on Netflix because it has lost so much stuff to the other streaming services like Disney+ as well.

    That said, I'm yet to unsubscribe from Netflix and it's not something I'm thinking of at the moment.

    Your whole post made sense from your perspective untill the hypocritical ending. Typical Everton fans talking shite... just like my best mate.... pffft x

    I still see no comparison to be honest, the whole user experience of Netflix is like no other, i have Netlifx, Prime and Disney Plus aswell as my Smart IPTV subscription(if anyone's interested PM me - all live TV aswell as all on demand.. best out there and 24/7 support).

    Been watching a few Mafia docs on Netflix this week.
