May Contain Nuts got a reaction from 48 hours in Academy Thread 21/22
They lost 1-0, goal in the first half. Nothing game tbh,.
Ebosele came on at half time, did well in his 1 on 1 defending as usual, didn't really get any opportunity to get forward.
Watson came on after about 80 mins, at which point Ebosele got pushed upfront. I don't really get it tbh, can't see him having a career upfront, seems a waste.
Couple of decent passes from Watson (one to Ebosele I think) but nothing of any real signficance happened in the 2nd half, so nothing more to say than that.

Don't know if Festy or Watson play yet. Doesn't seem to be on FreeSport. But live on YouTube.

She isn't smoking, but having been with Eddie for 50 years, she spends a lot of time fuming.

May Contain Nuts got a reaction from GB SPORTS in Things that annoy me but shouldn’t..
The trend of independent bakeries, cafes, pop-up cake stalls and whoever lazily piggybacking the success of famous, mainstream brands to sell their products at a higher price than they're worth.
What's the point in having your own brand when everything you sell carries the names of another brand, one you can buy at any food shop in the country? What differentiates your product from anyone else's when the main ingredient and all you really taste is a mass produced chocolate bar chopped up and stuck on top of a basic £1 bakery item?
Why should I buy a basic doughnut from you for £3 just because you've melted a Snickers on the top of it and squirted some whipped cream on it? If they were making their own versions of the branded items then fair play, but they're not.
Absolutely no imagination, no unique identity, just passing the cost of your licensing fees onto the customer and for what? An Oreo Doughnut? Yeah, great.
Frauds.

May Contain Nuts reacted to Wolfie in Random stuff that cheers me up thread
A couple of blue tits decided to nest in our wall mounted smoking bin at work this spring.
Was outside yesterday having a fag at a safe distance and witnessed one of the chicks standing on the edge of one of the holes, warily deciding to take its first flight - with cheeps of encouragement from one of the parents in a nearby bush. Off it went, eventually, for a loop of the car park and then disappeared behind the building out of view.
Warmed the heart, I can tell you.
By this morning, the nest was empty, so presumably all the chicks (at least 6) had done the same.

Ruby our Rottweiler was four yesterday. Don’t normally give her sweets but if you can’t have one on your birthday...

May Contain Nuts got a reaction from Alph in Boxing Thread
Clicked on view latest post, took me to page 76 (December 2019)
Yeah, boxing, not for me.
Just thought I'd pipe up with that, for no reason whatsoever.
See you all again in December 2022.

May Contain Nuts got a reaction from Taribo in So what does our next kit look like?
Confirms what we all knew really, ordered some orange stuff when we appointed Cocu and we can't back out of it.

May Contain Nuts reacted to IlsonDerby in So what does our next kit look like?
I ordered both this one and the other third kit from the same year too! Much nicer than any mundane crap they’ll serve up to us.
last good home shirt we had was 2015 with those light silvery diamonds in the background of the shirt.

SO avoidable all this
"The Euro 2020 Thread" would have been fine

Definitely felt like the right evening for a Tripel K
Something to help me through the tedium of watching England.

May Contain Nuts reacted to Kinder in Beer Thread
It was an afternoon session so I didn’t have anything too strong. It was Smash & Grab, Life & Death, Perfect Storm and a collab with Salt Beer Factory. All really good.
I know what you mean about the latest barrel aged releases, they’ve been a bit samey. The best I’ve had from them is the mole & poblano one, I’ve still got one left that I’m saving for the right time.

Final concept this year… a camouflage take on the 1996 Puma maroon away kit when were first in the Premier League under Jim Smith. Ahhh, the good old days. ?✌️??

May Contain Nuts reacted to Dimmu in Summer 2021 Transfer Window - Suggestion Thread
Actually, I could and quite easily so. Better service from the wing and playing Sibley in a free role as a second striker and I'm pretty confident they'd both hit double figures even though they are hardly optimal pairing.
Of course, Sibley won't be played anywhere close where he should be and support from the wings will continue to be non-existent if we don't replace Lawrence and Waggy properly. But I can daydream, can't I?

May Contain Nuts got a reaction from cstand in Beer Thread
Gorgeous. A little alcohol warmth but not overpowering. Nice and sticky, very drinkable. Lethal.

I've got two others from them still to drink - CTHULHU West Coast TIPA 12.0% / Kludde Belgian Quadruple 11.5% - bought from a new micropub in Littleover (Triple B's) at a little bit too much of a markup (though they have 15% off this weekend)

If the owners were that good they would have repaid the local businesses inc St John’s Ambulance that got stiffed. Never even paid for the stadium they couldn’t afford .
