Dismal.
We play stupid too. Giving away unnecessary fouls.

It's rubbish and difficult to see how it gets any better.
Kane has 2 goals in 18 Nations league games; nobody looks in form. Rubbish

We watched this last weekend & I was keen to catch up with it, after Mark Kermode said it was far better than the latest Doctor Strange multiverse film which was out in cinemas at the same time.
I agree with you and would give it an 8/10. Mrs Woflie I'm sure would be nearer a 4/10 - but then her favourite films are the Bad Boys franchise, so she clearly knows nowt.
It was the other way round with us. Her Indoors loved it; I hated it.

Relax man, jeez.
How have people managed to make out I've had a dig at them.
It is a significant event. It's a shame some people don't consider it so. I've not got a problem with them for it ffs.
I also think it's a shame I'm not a millionaire, that people don't enjoy things like that. Or that not everyone gives a toss Palestine (war), famine (Afghanistan) etc etc.
Keep you knickers on. No wonder there's no politics thread. Got your boxing gloves on and I only meant I like to see people brought together.
Are you ok?
It sounds like you are the one who needs to relax. I'm in a transcendent state of serenity.

Think it's a shame that some didn't watch this historic event in the UK.
I think, even if I wasn't pro Royal family, that I'd still watch some. I can't imagine not being interested in significant world events.
Some don't consider it a 'significant' event. It's a funeral, not a flood (Pakistan), war (Ukraine) or earthquake (Mexico).

Gosh you have been busy researching this. I am impressed. I bow down and out to your greater knowledge.
I find greater knowledge to be a better option than gobbing off

Parts are accurate actually and parts are omitted.
He was suspended after confronting the principal at a public event.
As an aside, one wonders what part of the teachings of Christ transgenderism runs contrary to.
If he wasn't suspended for his polemic on homosexuality in 2020, what makes you think he was suspended for refusing to use appropriate pronouns?

A teacher who refused to call a pupil they because the teacher was a Christian. He lost his job and was threatened with jail. What makes one person's beliefs trump another person's. ?
That's not at all accurate.

Soon after the publication of his dictionary, that renowned brain box Dr Johnson received a visit from a group of religious ladies who expressed their disappointment that the good doctor had included rude words. Johnson's reaction was surprise that the ladies had been looking them up.
Such complaints reflect more on the complainer.

Lovely stuff reading back through a matchday thread when we were losing, but ended up winning. The impatience of people is laughable at times.
Thank god we won. It's saved us from an international break of whining.
My own particular favourite was this little gem:
'The moment Rosenior decided to play Chester who hasn’t kicked a ball all season at RB against a pacey forward it was all over'
I won't name him but this particular bit of pants-wetting is a matter of public record.

The Cocu, Rooney, Rosenior experiment of tippy tappy, backwards and sideways football needs to end, cut ties and start afresh, it didn’t work back then and it’s not working now.

All we're asking is to whitelist this forum.
It is a free forum, not asking much just to have a couple of ads showing on each page.
I mean it would be a bigger problem if there was no forum surely?
For what it's worth, I think you're on the legacy ad free from donations years ago. So won't be seeing ads anyway, if the whitelist wouldn't effect you.
There's no question of me not whitelisting the forum. I just don't like adverts and this was always an ad-free oasis.

Did you force ads on the site now? I get a popup that remains unless I disable my adblocker. I'm pathologically averse to sites with adverts blinking at me!
Any chance we can have a subscription ad free experience?
Ad blocker is quite important to me, so the pop up on this site is a bit of a problem.
I haven't had it pop up on my phone (yet).

Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Watched on Amazon)
You've probably seen the controversy online and maybe formed your own opinion already, fwiw heres mine after watching the first 3 episodes.
Personally, I think its okay. The scenery (CGI or otherwise) is excellent, as is the soundtrack at times. The acting and dialogue, not so great. The story isn't really compelling yet, but its watchable enough for me at least to carry on. I'd give it about a 6/10.
If you're not interested in the controversies, thats all you need to know ?
I'm not coming at this as a Tolkien fan. I've seen the Peter Jackson movies and tbh enjoyed them a lot, but I've never read the books nor invested myself in the lore beyond what I can vaguely remember from watching them. A lot of criticism I've read centres around it being Amazons vision for Middle Earth and not Tolkiens. I can imagine as a Tolkien fan you'd be pretty disappointed, as purely a.n.other fantasy epic its not reaching any new heights - its one I'll watch then probably forget.
The diverse cast also apparently triggered a lot of people, although tbh the reviews I've read barely mention this. Maybe a convenient distraction from the reported $1bn investment into a pretty average show? Dunno. Whilst some members of the cast have been pretty outspoken about the diversity of the show in the promotional tours etc, nothing in the actual show stood out as forced or cringeworthy. If it wasn't for hearing about the controversy beforehand, I wouldn't have thought twice about it.
The Galadriel character I guess is the other sticking point. Again, not being a Tolkien fan her combat prowess didn't really bother me (She is known as more of an angelic priestess type figure in the later movies). She is completely overpowered compared to everyone else however which tbh was a little distracting and her characters dialogue and motivations have been written by the office junior.
I still remember quotes from PJs LotR, this however is instantly forgettable. Not the actor, or any of the other actors fault - if you're spending $1bn on something you hire the best writers and directors, this was however created by 2 showrunners with barely any Hollywood credits between them. It would be okay for a run of the mill fantasy show but Tolkien as with my guilty nerdy pleasure, Star Wars, are held to different standards by their fans.
I agree. Could get wherever it's going (I don't know where that is) a lot quicker.
I will probably watch the rest of it because it's ok but if something prevented me from seeing it, I wouldn't be upset.

Having watched last night's game, all I can say is you are going to need a lot of shopping and subbuteo to fill the time after watching the 'highlights'.
