    I’ve stopped booking escape lounges in airports now that irritating family are encouraging their ilk to use them. 

    Also that smug looking chap in his conservatory who looks way too pleased to see his lady neighbour under the guise of telling her to buy an insurance. No, they’re having an affair 

    Smug looking bloke also seen bringing his neighbour parsnips. It's a dead giveaway.

    Nice to see you care more about others' claims and suspicions than what courts of law decide. And then use "alleged" to chicken out of passing it as your own opinion due to fear of libel and lack of proof.

    I presume if someone takes you to court and you are cleared you'll remain an (alleged) rapist/wife-beater/pedo for life (and they can happily slander you hiding behind a screen)

    PS No affiliation to said club or individual just find it really cheap.

     

    Cheaper than, say, having witnesses dealt with

    To make a somewhat semi serious point though, the stupidity of all this is that on Sunday and yesterday Coventry deserved all the plaudits for the game they made of it at Wembley. Also Leeds vs Boro was another very good game of football last night and deserves credit (with a bit of damnation over both sides defending as well)!

    But what are the top of football discussions at the minute? Antony celebrations, VAR decisions, pep moaning of fixture congestion’s and Forest losing the plot. If you want to know what is wrong with the premier league, it’s that they all live in a microcosm where they think we should all care about all these little things that shouldn’t matter over actual games of football.

    It's not really a Premier League microcosm - it's a football one, though it is amplified beyond all reason in the premier league.

    Footballers and managers exist in an environment where they never have to grow up. They play a game in childhood that someone pays them to do in adulthood, surrounded by similar people and those employed to perfom parental tasks like do the shopping, fix stuff etc.

    Whilst this doesn't necessarily apply to all players, there are a lot of children in adult bodies, who never develop emotionally and are used to getting their own way, throwing tantrums etc.

    The premier league and media endulge all this like rubbish parents.

    69.

    Place of birth: Edinburgh

    Signed for Derby: 2007

    First club: Hibernian

    Last club: Partick Thistle

    Position: Striker

    Full caps: 69

    Fun fact: One of only five post-war players to have played for both Rangers and Celtic

    Digging deep into 70s nostalgia part of my brain, I believe Alfie Conn was the first of these and I think we had him on loan at some point.

    Musk has a proven track record of success which you cannot deny.

    People ridiculed Tesla and Space X years ago saying it would not work.

    When he takes SpaceX/Starlink public in five years time I expect X will be part of the deal.

    Over here in pedants' corner, we'd like to point out that Space X still hasn't worked.
