jono reacted to ramit in Worst, cringe making, irritating,adverts
In particular, adverts where I am told how much the company cares about it's customers.
It would be much quicker naming adverts that don't irritate me. Adverts are more and more creeping into everything, can't listen to music radio anymore, the commercial time equals the music time now, it is infuriating.
I have a smart phone, but don't use the smarts, I do however play one game that comes included with it, a tile type of Majong thingy I enjoy. At level 176 I can no longer play it without agreeing to some adverts first, I almost threw the phone into the wall. It is my phone, I own it, it is not on rent, I should have complete control over it, but no grrr.
Like the sucker that I can be, I came back and clicked on allowing the bare minimum of ads and I hate myself for that weakness.

jono reacted to cannable in Liam Thompson
When he first broke through he was this tidy midfielder who would keep the ball, keep things ticking.
He’s sort of lost that ball retention and turned into this energetic midfield runner.
Maybe the style of football won’t allow it (not a dig) but if he can knit it together you’ve basically got another Bryson. Just without the goal threat, thus far.

Thommo is a brilliant footballer and a good asset to the team. His ability to keep the ball and his naturally attacking mentality is so important to us.

I think it’s fine as it is the area is very different to Inner city stadia where stands were named after the area adjacent. I don’t really fancy
The Arena End
The Car Park stand
The Padel stand
The industrial estate End

jono got a reaction from Animal is a Ram in Summer transfer suggestion thread
Wel they’re both regular church goers so it’s an easy mistake to make especially as we’ve got Vicars already.

jono got a reaction from NOTSA74 in Richard Keogh
So sad. I remember the peno shootout at old Trafford. A real gutsy player who seemed to have integrity.
The Joiners, his behavior, the gall to sue, the lack of humility ? Well may that’s life, survival or whatever we all have to do but he wrecked his name in my view. Pity. A courageous player on the field.

jono got a reaction from Chester40 in Paul Warne
I don’t do it on purpose. Early days for me 8/10 years ago, I thought you were a balanced poster with much reason to offer in debates and a lot of Thoughtful comments. I just took exception to the bullying thing, the victim mentality, the seeming desire to avoid a back and forth discussion / weighing of the odds. This is a football forum, we all have views. Some pretty strong, some knee jerk passion; that we might either regret or be glad we voiced. There will inevitably in these circumstances be people who disagree with us and use firey language .. jees we are a bunch of folk arguing the toss in an open environment. No body is being threatening. When “new speak” starts to creep in and somehow you aren’t able to be forthright without someone sticking a name tag on you grates beyond measure. Sorry, I don’t mean to be personal or irksome but I have a point to make and believe I have been measured, reasonable and argued with logic. The moment ( and this isn’t aimed at you) I see certain language forms my hackles go up. “Gas light” “Straw man” .. there are plenty, that in isolation are useful but too often they speak of a corporate HR dept of a state institution. Tick box, say the right thing, pass the course. It’s intellectually shrivelled.

jono reacted to Rich84 in Retained List
Need to remember you have 9 subs, not 7 in the Championship, so there should still be room in a 20 man matchday squad for the younger players, whilst keeping the good characters that will be able to so a job when required.
Also, can everyone mentioning Hourihane just stop, he said ages ago he was hanging his boots up for a coaching role at Villa, and even if he wasn't, he's become very much a bit part player in the last 10 games!

Pretty sure he will retire and do coaching at Villa .
