    This is basically every American advert, bar those offering medication for situations related to gross obesity followed by an ad offering you free cookie dough for life if you sign up for a year of pizza delivery.  They also seem to a generator fascination.

    The generator thing is a sort of code.

    Basically, you'll need one for when the grid goes offline in the coming race war 

    God bless America.

    My biggest fear was that Bolton would get a bagful and reduce our goal difference advantage to getable proportions over the final 2 games.

    Maybe not  🙂

    They might still do that

    There was no internal audit by Double Verify it was Musks own X team that found the misleading information about X.

    Double Verify only made mistakes with X no one else. 
     

     

    Head of the America's what?

    Isn't this George Courtney, ref from Spennymoor? Played in a friendly which he reffed - great official, always talking to the players.

    It is.

    I always liked that bit on Match of the day when the referee for the match was named, along with where he was from - Clive Thomas from Treorchy etc. 

    The only time I have ever heard the name 'Spennymoor' is in the context of George Courtney.

    Don’t always agree with what Leigh Curtis writes but do agree with his thoughts here:

    “After the midweek draw at Wycombe……understandably there were plenty amongst the black and white legion that were feeling a bit morose. Some had even written off automatic promotion, although our advise is to never read social media in the immediate aftermath of a game, particularly if you want a reasoned reaction”

    I purposely didn’t gonna on this Forum after Wednesday night until after the game yesterday. Even then couldn’t believe some of the vitriolic comments on team selection and even worse some after a great result and and help from other games.

    Some need to look at themselves in the mirror

    Did he really spell the noun as 'advise'?

    Is he a professional?

    It clearly hits his arm, and changes the trajectory of the ball (going out for a corner, instead of across the 6yrd box).
    His arm is clearly higher than the rest of his sprawling/sliding body.

    I'd add in the defender's defence, that the position of his arm is perfectly natural for the sliding block manoeuvre he is attempting.

    I've no idea what the latest rules are with respect to intent/clumsiness/shirt sleeves etc (🙄), but I can see why she gave it. 

    "Harsh" maybe, but I wouldn't use the term "ludicrous".

     

     

     

     

    It was ludicrous because she's a woman. Or something.

    I watched this at the weekend - because it now appears to be free on Amazon Prime (sorry for your loss Bob!)

    It seemed quite long at 2.5 hours, and I was also a bit underwhelmed by the ending, but my slept-on-it thoughts were much more positive.

    It has all the hallmarks of a whodunnit, but seems to deliberately subvert that by making the point that in real life some things are simply unknowable and you have to make your own mind up and move on with what ever life leaves you.

    I also liked the dual language device which I guess was intentionally done to make you think about how hard it is to understand each others lives. The fact she (as a native German speaker) had to speak English with her French husband, and then was forced to speak French in court but had to keep switching to English when she couldn't find the words to explain her emotions. All very cleverly done

    Mel Sage/10 for me

     

     

    We've just watched this and it is excellent. Some brilliant acting and nicely ambiguous.

    Since you went for Mel Sage, I'll go Michael Forsyth / 10.

    On the topic of the Sweeney, I always preferred the closing credits version of the theme.

    Is that tonight's game you're describing?

    On episode 4 and as we're heading up to Derbyshire tomorrow, I doubt we'll go back to it. 

    Well acted and filmed but utterly pretentious. 

    We watched the first episode afew days ago and are yet to return to it, which usually means we won't.

    Could only watch the last half an hour but some bad decisions from players tonight in the final third and the set pieces were rubbish. That last FK needed to be a shot at goal.

    Too obvious to need writing down, isn't it? Need a goal - don't actually shoot.
