Me and my girl had two nights down that way. We just got a cheap Premier Inn in Poole ans then took the chain ferry from Sandbanks over to Studland, Swanage, Corfe and ended up at Lulworth/Durdle Door. Some pics...

Be interesting to see what Tsimikas is made of. To be fair, Norwich and Burnley are two soft opponents to come up against, depending on how long Robertson is out for.

Yeah, I've no doubts he's probably waited to see when Fofana is next on the ball to give him a bit back but it's not reckless. It's just horribly unlucky it's turned into a bad one for Fofana. Could easily have walked away from it with nothing and for all the hate the Villarreal bloke received, he did win the ball. It was just a bad tangle.

I think what you have is those of us judging the challenge for the first time from the outside looking in, verses Leicester fans such as yourself that are extremely emotional losing a big player, have watched a bit of context to go with the game, scrolled countless social media posts relating to it and really built up a venomous reaction to it which doesn't totally relate to what we're seeing on first time view. I totally get it, I'm sure any of us would be the same if it happened to one of our own, you convince yourself it was reckless, nasty, premeditated etc because you are protective of your own. But judging the challenge on a first time glance without any of the other bits influencing our judgement, it doesn't feel like one of those really bad one's IMO. Not on a wind up here either, genuinely feel for you losing a quality player but for me it's just really bad luck.

My first bet of the season, a fiver on this. I expect West Brom and Ipswich to go well and the others should all be capable of the rest.
-
Forgetting the context of the situation, personally, I think if any one of our players get's sent off for that challenge, we'd be livid. I can understand the anger and frustration of losing a top player in a friendly but when the dust settles, I think most Leicester fans will see it was unfortunate.

That will be Leicester going hell bent for a new centre back now. No way he plays for the majority of the season.

Brilliant, that's worked a treat thank you.

I'm not sure what's happened recently as I've been away but is posting pictures also a known issue? I just tried some in the kit thread through the 'Add Files' option, sent to submit post and nothing. Apologies if it turns out I'm the 26th person to mention this.

Not everyone's cup of tea I know, but I liked the most recent one and this looks decent too. Judging by the trailer, the opening sequence looks totally bad ass.

Got to admire Villa for being ballsy. Taken one of Arsenal's long term targets in Buendia and now looking to pinch one of their talented youngsters. I don't think they ever truly expected Arsenal to accept but still. A sign of the times, perhaps.

Makes a change from them using thicker officials. -

I think Brentford will look to the foreign market and whatever cream is left of the Championship. It's what they know best really and I don't think they need to change that game plan. They used to pick out the League One talent but I think they have the pull to aim higher at the Championship starlets now. Michael Olise, Arnaut Danjuma and possibly Adam Armstrong would be good players for them to target that I could see fitting in their system. I actually wouldn't mind us going for Olise to be fair. He's looked a decent prospect. Could do a lot worse than look at possibly Sam Johnstone as a keeper too although not sure what West Brom would ask for him. I am definitely not convinced by Raya at all, bloke is a liability. -
Had a late long weekend away in Cornwall. Actually didn't take a lot of pics, these are probably the best one's though when in Looe.

Unfortunately, there is no shock factor to these videos anymore because they appear daily in our society. It seems imperative for the young generation to carry knives and blades of all sorts and people are dying, especially young teens, left, right and centre every week as a result. I don't know what the answer is anymore. The sad thing about it is, it makes you wonder about bringing kids up in this world when they are exposed to this.
-
Cheers both. I may give it a go out of curiosity because each to their own and all that, but I must admit, the premise doesn't grab me like Series One. I didn't realise Series One was actually based on a book from 2007 so I may download that and give it a go, see how it stacks up to the series. At least I can visualise the Tuunbaq then haha.
-
Haha, I didn't know there was a Season 2. Obviously a completely different story I take it? Not sure I'm up for it anyway after that glowing report

Good stuff. Bloody cracking it was. I was hooked.

I don't suppose anyone watched The Terror did they? I smashed it on BBC iPlayer. A strong 9/10 for me. I loved the atmospheric location of the Arctic, the unknown of what was out there. It evoked strong Game of Thrones vibes actually with beyond the wall and the White Walkers. What a brilliant, well acted series, fantastic at building tension and a great ending too.

I thought this was extremely dull, I'm not going to lie. I saw it through to the end but it was a hard watch. Where as, Three Billboards was quite the opposite and praise fully justified. I saw Sound of Metal last night. Now that was decent. It's on Amazon Prime at the moment about a drummer (Riz Ahmed from The Night Of - very good!) in a heavy metal group who loses his hearing and struggles to adapt to his new life being deaf. It's very thought provoking, especially with the artistic use of sound in the film to emphasise what the character and people in real life have to go through in this situation. It really made you feel n his headspace and my heart goes out to anyone that has to go through stuff like that. 7.9/10

That's disgusting. It was never that difference at the time. Fair play to Canelo for the finish but to insinuate he was coasting the fight like that is laughable. What chance do you have if that's what you're up against? The one thing with Boxing that really irritates me. Corrupt judges.
