Get in. But Bradley is a bit of a weapon isn’t he.

Darren pratley in the Orient team. Wondered what had happened to him.

I’d assumed he’d long since retired. He was part of that Swansea team that tonked Forest in the play offs I believe 

Normal bloke

Nice to see the moaners are out in force..

It's been dreadful, but the idea that a draw tonight means we've blown the autos already is ridiculous.

Supposed to be part of a front 2 but has been almost playing as a 10 or third midfielder. Now gone central of the front 3 with Washington on the right and NmL on the left .

Thanks. Very strange. Glad he's moved back. Wash off next surely.

I mean, they go up, they don't get a game next season. They stay down, they might get one. Anyone else reckon it's self sabotage? Or just incompetence? 

Presumably they'll be receiving promotion bonuses.

Where's Collins been playing? Been in a meeting for most of the game.

What a purchase CBT is turning out to be.

Had a big impact on the Pompey game tbf. But needs to get over that miss quickly.

That's criminal. Disaster if that costs us.

Oh right, are they just reflective and not actually lit? I've never paid much attention🤣

Didn’t have a car growing up but my uncle did. One night he took me for a drive and I got to sit in the front seat. When we went down unlit roads he showed me how he could turn the cats eyes on and off! I was dead impressed but also slightly bemused how this would affect other drivers. Took me many years to work out what was happening 🙄

I'm trying to figure this one out, do tell!

If the bald barsteward still owned us now, we’d spend all summer pursuing Hughes and pay him outrageously unaffordable wages to huge excitement from the fans, only for him to be a crock of poo signing.  

This annual thread is one of this forum's proudest traditions. Love it.

Quite. What does the Instagram piece say?

Nothing at all as far as I can see. Just TJJ sat in a chair. Cryptic response from Nate to it though. Perhaps the lad might be fit again prior to end of season after all.

Cheers @Comrade 86 👍🏼

Just posted a pic of him playing for Derby - no caption. Instagram stories disappear after 24 hours, hence the confusion.

Someone random like Smith.

This is a random one!

I think we'd be entering into rallying cry territory as we head into the final four games. He'd be bloody loving it.

I think he's fallen out of love with the game and possibly a deal of the Utd fanbase. It's a shame as when he's on it, he's almost unplayable. 

Quite possibly. I was wondering yesterday if a move away from United might do him good. But not sure whether anyone would be willing to pay the fee United would expect and the wages he'd expect given his lack of consistency.

Latest patreon episodes guest is former Rams player Scott Malone.

There’s a good chunk covering the Lampard season, Joiners Gate and Mels decline.

Worth a listen.

Do the Patreon episodes get posted on Youtube eventually?

You're too modest mate.  Tell him about having a right arm like Arnie.

 

Yeah but then I'd have to mention the left

Didn't watch the Utd game but I see there are a number of Rashford clips doing the rounds this morning.  Not sure he'd get in a Paul Warne Lg1 team tbh.

 

It's a shame that he's probably not going to reach the ultra-elite level that he had the potential to reach. Seems like a mentality thing. He's been public about mental health issues in the past, so I hope he's well. But he'll never be considered truly elite until he finds some kind of consistency.

My story's the opposite to everyone else's here 🤣

I've always been very skinny (about 6'1, 10 stone in Dec 2021). Started going to the gym 3 or 4 times a week and just generally eating more, and I'm currently up about 3½ stone. Went in at the deep end with calorie counting, protein supplements, creatine, etc., but I look so much better for it.

The only slight concern I've got at the minute is the cardio side of things. I've focused so much on lifting weights and getting bigger, that I've completely neglected my internal health. So now I've started dedicating a whole session to a combination of the bike/treadmill/stairmaster.

I also have a lot of aches and pains in my lower back and knees. I'm not sure whether this is me getting a bit older (31 now), a downside of me carrying some extra weight, or an injury that I've not paid enough attention to. It's on my list to see a physiotherapist or something.

I’m similar to you. Went to uni at 18, around 6 foot and 10 stone wet. Went to the gym inconsistently for a few years, then really started counting the calories after I graduated and got up to around 13 stone. I’m back down to 12 stone now but am hoping to get back up again soon.

When I first started, I had frequent lower back spasms. I went to a physio, he gave me a few stretches to do every day (I do them any time I exercise), and that largely sorted it.

I’ve started upping the cardio in the last year or so (part of the reason why I lost weight), and have had minor issues with knees, aches and pains. So I swapped some of my heavier squats (5 sets of 5) to lighter ones with more reps (3 sets of 12). Seems to have helped a little bit, but if the physio gives you any tips, let me know!

Until tonight I never knew this song was about a "chicken ranch" in Texas.

Raunchy southern rock at it's finest.

Turn it up, or don't play it.

 

I recently discovered this and it was swiftly added to the summer driving playlist

You've just awoken a forgotten memory. What a circus that whole period was. Him, Kirchner and the Fake Sheikh.
