  1. Not entirely sure the rush for instant news is helping. And I'm definitely sure that MPs, former or otherwise, shouldn't be using language like this.
  2. I'm not sure whether this thread is about fireworks, dogs or having a poo now. So here's my contribution.
  3. I'm not saying its a dump, but I've moved 3hrs to the north 😛
  4. As with many similar sized clubs that have been relegated to Lg1 I'm expecting 3-4 season, any less is a bonus given that our starting position was far worse than most of the others. Whether we'll get back into the Prem is another issue. We threw money at it and failed, if we are now being run sustainably (as I think we should) then we're gonna be relying on god tier scouting and/or a group of academy graduates all coming through at the same time and achieving promotion before they get poached.
  5. There was obviously no AI back then...
  6. Unlikely, I don't have a TV Licence. I had to force myself to go to the pub all weekend to watch the Ryder Cup 👀 Other than the thrill of the live action, you can catch up with the best bits of virtually any sporting event moments after its finished on youtube. Day 1 of The Sanderson Farms Championships for example!
  7. No, I think we're capable of pushing towards the top 2. Assuming we're embedded in the top 6 by Christmas, unlike last season we should have a transfer budget available for January and we'll be an attractive proposition for players - big crowds, good wages, gunning for promotion. A large part of why we missed out on promotion last season was that our small squad tired whereas other teams reinforced. I'm still quietly confident this will be a good season.
  8. Looking forwards to similar on Radio Derby 🤣
  9. Okay its time for almost kick off, lets check out the match thread...
  10. Dammit, I thought I was the only one 😛 Same here. I can't remember the last time I can recall a dream. I just shut my eyes, open them and its a new day! My wife tells me I occasionally talk in my sleep so something is going on, but dammed if I can remember one. I also sleep through thunderstorms and the odd earthquake we've had as well - there's probably a link 🫤
  11. I wonder how many will remember this in the morning...
  12. Maybe not now, but at some point in the future when we have the power to run such a complicated simulation it would give some school kids the chance to 'go back in time' and simulate life from the big bang for a history project. We'll probably just get scraped into the garbage when they're done!
  13. There's a weird reality somewhere in which Rammie is some kind of uber strong mascot doing all manner of stunts before the game kicks off - and this is the game in question... *I don't even what to know why youtube recommended this to me...
  14. Oh I'm very much in the camp of incredible claims require incredible evidence, but I do find it all very intriguing. Whether or not Aliens have/are visiting us is up for debate but I think the theories surrounding the 'visitations' are interesting. Rather than coming millions of light years to reach us, maybe they live in parallel dimensions - in which case, and to answer one of your points, we'd have no way of detecting their technology before we detected them. Alternatively, and to get back to the Simulation Theory idea, maybe its just the creators dropping in and out of their creation from time to time to see how we're all doing. Wasn't it Elon Musk (or someone similar) that hypothesised once you get to the point of being able to create a Simulation, why wouldn't you? And once you do, the chances of you being the original species to create the Simulation drop dramatically. In 30 years of playing computer games I have seen the gameworlds grow dramatically in both terms of scale and detail, who knows where we'll be in another 30 years. Or 300 years... Any maybe despite the best programming there are built in error correctors such as deja vous and the mandela effect. Its fun to look into and chat about, but we'd probably never want to know the actual truth. Depending upon what we found, it might doom us all.
  15. Sailing over the horizon seemed a long way off once. Assuming we don't ruin it all in the meantime I'm convinced that we'll be a space fairing civilization one day. If anyone has been following the UFO disclosure stuff over in USA there are a number of theories springing up about our origins and potential place in the galaxy, along with the Simulation Theory its all interesting stuff and food for thought and debate.
  16. Haha indeed. I don't mind the crowd being raucous and partisan but when the (American) players and caddies interfere with shots before they have been taken it leaves a bad taste. Very happy we got the job done 🙂
  17. Its the best team event imho, made more remarkable (by the Europeans at least) due to the fact that its largely a solo sport and you're playing against your teammates most weeks. The emotion from Rory at the end of his round bought a lump to the throat.
  18. It was starting to get a bit nervy with the US dominating the middle of the singles but Fleetwood has just guaranteed 1/2pt to win the Ryder Cup 🏆 I wonder if the Yanks ever review their performance and come to the conclusion that if they ever worked on their team spirit they'd probably win every one... *And now Lowry has guaranteed at least 1/2pt. Who is going to get the chance to sink the winning putt.
