    That stupid thing players do with corners. Positioning the ball so it is/isn’t on the white line, to gain one millimetre.

    Gaspode reacted to Caerphilly Ram in Barnsley (H) (FACR3) Sun 8th Jan, 12:30 KO   
    3-0, NML wins the ball pressing high, keeper saved his shot 1 v 1 but it rebounds back to NML who lays it off for Knight to finish from 12-14 yards

    Fire Sticks are entirely legal - unless you install software on them to illegally access content....be aware that you still need to pay for the better content so would need a Netflix or Amazon Prime subscription unless you're happy with the free live/catch-up services (iPlayer etc)

    Maybe we already have a striker lined up so Utd can’t see the point of leaving him here….

    Potter must be under pressure at Chelsea if he can’t get more out of their squad - they look absolutely clueless - and worse, they don’t really look that bothered….

    Gaspode got a reaction from Miggins in The coronabrexit thread. I mean, coronavirus thread   
    Not sure why you're trying to turn this into a party-political issue (actually I am entirely sure why, but let's leave it there) - but as you're asking, why didn't Labour fix it when they were in power either?
    I can give you a clue what the issue is (and I speak as someone who worked on the ill-fated NHS Digital programme) - the NHS is too big and too intransigent to change - every single part of the NHS that we worked with considered themselves to be 'special' - and consequently, they were far too (self) important to change to a more efficiernt model. An absolute nightmare organisation that needs a complete overhaul, but any government that tried it would find the unions all over it and refusing to change. I reckon you could take 60-70% of the mangement out and no-one would notice (other than those remaining might be forced to work together in a more efficient manner) - just think how many front-line staff you could employ by re-distributing all that management money.....

    Gaspode got a reaction from Ram-Alf in Pele   
    Much as I loved Pele, what an absolutely ridiculous idea. Most countries have one national stadium at most - which they’re unlikely to want to rename - forget Wembley, let’s call it the Pele Stadium - yeah right….
    As for other major stadiums, has the numpty not seen the way they’re named according to sponsorship arrangements? Can you imagine, for example, Arsenal renaming the Emirates as the Pele Stadium and throwing away many millions on sponsorship just to keep the prat in charge of FIFA happy?
    The bloke may not be as corrupt as Blatter, (thoughI i wouldn’t be surprised if some evidence of dodgy dealing feathering his own pocket appears at some part in the future) but he’s certainly in the same league as far as stupidity goes…..
