    Motorhead - Derby assembly rooms 1983. First ever gig. Deaf for three days. 
    My Bloody Valentine - Sheffield Arena 1992ish
    Mogwai - Birmingham Institute 1999ish
    The Jesus and Mary Chain - Birmingham Institute 1996ish
    So based on that list, bands are not as loud as before or 38 years of gig going has knackered my hearing.

    43 Nascars starting a race at Texas Motor speedway. Because there are overhead boxes in the stand, the noise just funnels up to the top where we were seated. Watching a rocket takeoff at Cape Canaveral in 2015 was a more bassy noise that shook the insides of your body.

    Back in September '79, when they blew up "The 7 Arches" (Breadsall Viaduct, pretty much where The Paddock pub now stands) the whole ground shook around the houses that looked on.  Everyone had smashed windows apart from us... Dad had the sense to open windows, allowing a "rattle" as a shock absorber.
    The bang was so loud, it almost woke mum up... and it was her funeral the following day!   ??

    Watched a rocket take off at Cape Canaveral about 6 years ago, the noise totally filled your stomach it was awe inspiringly loud.

    When I was a lad... *starts to feel like Grampa Simpson*
    I used to live across the road from Linton Primary School, after school finished a load of us used to go back, climb over the fence and play football on the fields, one of which was on the side of a smallish hill, but the highest point for a fair old distance. 
    Back in those days, fighter jets used to fly over really, really low, really, really fast - they had flown past before heard them!  Several times, we were messing around on the top of this small hill and these planes screamed 100ft over the top of us frightening us half to death. 
    Nothing has come close to that noise.

    Dear Points of View
    I switched on my TV tonight hoping to watch Eastenders, or a programme about improving my house or selling a bit of stuff that has been in my attic for the last 30 years (but has some huge sentimental value), and my choice on your main channel was limited to watching other Country’s football teams. I don’t pay my licence fee to watch 11 little Finlanders kick a football. This is so bloody typical of your evident bias towards Europeans and Minorities. It make me absolutely sick to the arse.

    You really haven't missed much.  Phil Mitchells still knocking off Sharon and a wide boy owns the Vic. Someone's slowly unravelling on the bench of tears in the middle of the square on Christmas Eve, normally having just found out there husbands having an affair with a sour faced bint who shouts a lot and has a peroxide blond crew cut. Someone's hiding a pregnancy after a drunken night with a womanising brother-in-law. Dot cotton is still nobbing Mr Papadopoulos laundrette owner, OTIB forum fanny and FFP botherer
    If you feel the need to catch up, watch some re runs from 1993, its much the same.

    Good luck to him. I have a feeling he will possibly move back to a winger as his career progresses with the option that he can do a decent job as a wing back if needed.
    I'm not sure why people are getting so angry about this. He obviously felt he needed to move to progress his career the way he wants it to go. Playing for a team in a top flight league in their country will have a better chance at playing in European competitions against higher quality opposition without having to get battered by cloggers and journey men in League 1 or 2. Lausanne finished 6th this season, and next season the Swiss League has 5 spots available in UEFA competitions through it's coefficient ranking. With a small improvement Archie could be playing UEFA cup football in a couple of seasons. Sounds better than trying to get into a team who have just strugggled at the wrong end of the Championship.
    Also, not all our best talent is being hoovered up by bigger clubs. We've got plenty of youth team players coming through into the first team and only a small handful have moved that we wanted to stay (Delap, Gordon etc.) The world of youth football is a cruel place and if you choose the wrong path it can be the end of what could be a promising career.
    I hope he does well and has a fine career.

    I didn't vote for Brexit either, but given that Switzerland isn't actually in the EU, are you sure that it is to blame here? 
    For what it's worth, I like Archie and he was a great sight going forwards.  Unfortunately, he wasn't quite such a great sight when it came to defending, and I'm not sure he would ever have made it with us as a left back, given that Lee Buchanan and Fozzie are before him, and Will Grewal Pollard, Dylan Williams and Riley Moloney are (not far) behind him.   I've seen quoted somewhere that we'll get compensation, possibly around £250k, which wouldn't be bad for someone who may never have made our first team, and who at times couldn't get into the U23s either, Williams being preferred.
    Anyway, all the best Archie.

    Although I agree that £25 per month is probably fair, a 100% increase does seem excessive. Add in the months where there are fewer games, either naturally or due to Sky, then the actual price per game wasn't so low as others suggest  (hi @i-Ram). I like @Spanish don't bother stopping my subscription in the summer, and have never even considered doing so in the months where most games are blacked out. Will I pay the £25? I don't know. I shall be stopping my subscription with immediate effect however whilst I decide what to do over the summer.

    I thought you meant £25 per game after seeing all the outrage. £25 per month is an absolute bargain if that includes the majority of the games. £12.50 per month you may as well wear a mask

    Cancel culture is accusing GB News of hate speech/fake news - despite not being able to cite any, whilst mounting a twitter campaign against its sponsors. 
    No one wants to cancel the BBC, some people just don't watch it and therefore question why they have to pay for it. 
    Personally I watch both - the more sources you get your news from the more likely you are to have a more rounded picture.

    Instead of selectively removing posts, how about get rid of the offending post in the first place. Because they are still up, yet perfectly valid responses are taken down.
