Owen Bradley? He doesn't strike me as the aggressive type. You must have really upset him. ?

It’s fascinating that people like this still exist…
people not yet signed by forest, I mean. 

2 e's per night is too many at your age mate

I totally agree with your comments about LoD... also my last "Big watch"!
 
Other than live footy and news, literally everything else has to have subtitles in our house, otherwise Muckerette refuses to watch it!   (Partly deaf, and also struggles with accents... British or International!)

I have an aversion to British based drama that the general public love. 
People who never watch anything with subtitles and are avid soap opera viewers don't carry much weight if I'm debating whether to follow their tip.
Line of Duty was the previous big one where I eventually gave in and watched it - I thought it was decent enough but I could have lived without it and I wouldn't have recommended it to anyone else as a must watch.
So I've been on the fence and seen a fair few say it's good who know their stuff on here too.
Yesterday the missus started watching it and she insisted it's so amazing we needed to watch the rest together.  So I've watched the first 2 episodes of series 1 to catch up with her.
I was pleasantly surprised but I wasn't desperately hankering for the next episode either.....Will stick with it!
 

We’ve done a swap with Victoria Lancashire off the news and radio.

We're claiming her, are we?

The documentary is available on YouTube, it was broadcast in 1997. Anyone interested, just type 'Jody Morris, young apprentice, documentary'.
I should warn that it features Graham Rix before he got done for an underage sex conviction as well as being accused & investigated for bullying & racism as a coach at Chelsea.
 

I think he deserves the opportunity.
 I can remember a BBC documentary featuring young apprentices at Chelsea Jody Morris & Neil Clement* (both milling about in Harrods), Morris' father was a right Cockney & he came from a very ordinary background (Kensington council estate) so it was a major achievement to win a contract at Chelsea, this before young players' lives were radically altered by the riches of the PL/lucrative contracts. After that, he had a few run-ins, but he's been there & done it, has probably used this experience to mentor young players. It is a great opportunity for him.
Like us, Swindon have had their problems & a new ownership has stabilized things, it seems, and are a club again on the up. It's a club not too far from London so Morris could use his Chelsea links to bring in loans.
*Though middle-aged now, I was too young then to realize that Neil Clement's father was also a famous footballer, Dave, & that Neil is also the brother of Paul who went on to manage us. Sadly, Dave Clement committed suicide so the programme also covered the poignant side of Neil's mother seeing her son emulate his father to become a footballer, and perhaps being concerned about the anxieties that such a career can bring. 
 
 

Canaries cruise next Saturday for a week. Some welcome winter warmth in these old bones ?

*Contradiction Alert!  ?
 
I know what you mean though, and I agree that if we keep playing well, we will keep winning more than we lose.
It's those "Fully deserved to lose that" games that are the most disappointing.  Moreso even than the "We was robbed" games.  At least the latter still give us hope.
Anyway... Big win today.  I feel it in my water.  In fact, now is a good time for me to head over to the prediction thread.  ?

I did. But not until relatively recently.  
 
That's not my real snout on my avatar. Mines slightly lighter in colour so I used a snout double. 

Jesus H Christ!  It was a New Year getaway... and a big birthday! 
Just stop with the constant digs, will yer!  

I said I was sorry!

It's when you're asked to use an extension that bothers me!  Have to be very careful you don't go in off!  
 
 
... Or worse... miss your shot altogether, and finish off over by the cushion!

Or you stop half way through and ask a man with white gloves on to give your balls a polish.
Or is that just me?

Preferably that guy at Wraith Rovers, seeing as we couldn't tempt CM19 back to his old haunt.
Also good to see all this extra exorcise in training is paying dividends too.

When a steak and a BJ is simply not enough ?
Is the timing a coincidence? Always felt that Valentines is a bit overrated, but it turns out I've just not been doing right.

Hope Cash is OK for Saturday... 

 
 
 

I think you're right, mate.  ?

They're turning into the football equivalent of human traffickers : sign for a team on the outskirts of Nottingham and end up toiling away in the midfield of a team you've never heard of hundreds of miles away from your family.
I wonder if they're allowed to keep their phones? 

"Baldy"?  

Saw that. 
The fact that the Scarborough chairman bought them all a pint as well......?
