I suppose it’s out of the question for Tom Huddlestone to re-sign as a CB? Is he still looking for a contract ? He’s 35 I think. Would love to see his class again 

Boris couldn't sack someone for being unfaithful.
Or indeed being bad at their job.
Misleading the public would be shaky ground, too.
In fact, it's hard to see how Boris could sack any minister ever, if he held them to his own standards.

Who can forget the part he played in the Leeds 2nd leg, his awareness and calm control
under pressure was fantastic - he deserves another go IMO

50 mil for the club and 250 mil on players etc

For those of you with a pair of those old-fashioned red/green 3D glasses, you can now watch Ingenuity fly on Mars in 3D!
Also, in the early hours of this morning, the Chinese safely landed their first rover, Zhurong, on Mars. This report from the BBC is terrible because it doesn't explicitly state that you're not watching footage, just a computer animation. As opposed to the NASA actual  footage. 
 

If Steve Gibson gets his way....

Hopefully if we ever do become a fan owned group, that group of fans can find their way to agree on matters better than we do on this forum. ?

I might be being naive here but how can the club come out and confirm anything just yet when they:
1. Don't know the outcome of the EFL appeal (which is the reason behind the delay in accounts, already confirmed by Stephen Pearce)
2. Don't know whether or not the takeover is going through
3. Don't know the final outcome of the Keogh appeal and any compo we may have to pay
4. We don't know which league we will be in next year which impact the finances either way
 

Here's a dog and frisbee metaphor for what I think when I hear 'it's back in our hands'...

 

The wife took me out for a drive in the countryside and she said to me sexily with a wink "why don't we do something we've never done in the car before"
"Go on then" I said, "put it in 4th gear"

Archaeologists have uncovered another tomb in an Egyptian pyramid.
When they open the sarcophagus they found the body had been embalmed in chocolate and hazelnuts.
They think they have found the tomb of Pharaoh Rocher.
 

A woman goes to the funeral home to visit her late husband whose funeral is the next day.
Upon seeing the body, she says to the funeral director, “Oh, no, you've dressed him in a blue suit! He hated blue and I've given all his other suits to charity!”
The funeral director says, “I'm not sure what we can do at this late hour, but I'll see what I can do.”
The next day, the widow returns and asks if they had managed to sort things out and the undertaker says, “Well, as luck would have it a lady came in last night and said her husband was dressed in a grey suit and that he hated grey”.
“Oh good!”, says the lady.
”Yes”, replied the funeral director, “all we had to do was swap the heads”.

Two 70-year-old men, Billy and Pete, have been friends all of their lives. When it's clear that Pete is dying Billy visits him every day.
One day Billy says, "Pete, we have both loved football all our lives, and we played football on Saturdays together for so many years. Please do me one favour, when you get to Heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's football there."
Pete looks up at Billy from his death bed "Billy, you've been my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favour for you.” Shortly after that, Pete sadly passes on.
At midnight a couple of nights later, Billy is awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to him
"Billy......Billy"
"Who is it?”, asks Billy sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?"
"Billy - It's me, Pete."
"You're not Pete... Pete just died!"
"I'm telling you, it's me...... Pete" insists the voice.
"Pete! Where are you?"
"I'm in heaven" replies Pete "and I have some really good news and a little bad news."
"Tell me the good news first," says Billy.
"The good news," Pete says, "is that there's football in heaven. Better yet, all of our old friends who died before us are here too. Better than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always springtime and it never rains or snows. Our wives are there too, and young and pretty as ever! And best of all, we can play football all we want, and we never get tired!!"
That's fantastic." says Billy. "It's beyond my wildest dreams! So what's the bad news?â€
"You're in the team for this Saturday!”

Can you help?
This may be of interest to someone.
A friend of mine has 2 tickets in a Covid secure corporate box for the next Wales v England game Saturday 28th November.
He paid £300 each but he didn’t realise when he bought them that it was going to be the same day as his wedding! If you are interested, he is looking for someone to take his place.
It’s at Derby Registry Office at 4 pm.
The bride’s name is Sarah and she’s 5ft 5”, about 9 stone, quite pretty, has her own income and is a really good cook.

Be glad when the Pubs open again! 
My drinking at home is getting out of hand. Last night I asked the missus for her phone number.!

Two Scotsmen go to Hell
A demon approaches the devil and says "Dark lord! Two men from Glasgow in Scotland have been sent here. What should be done with them?"
The devil says "Glaswegians? Their kind are normally very friendly, helpful and honest, so we do not see many such men in my dark domain... Hang them in a cage over the lake of fire for now and I shall check on them later."
But when the devil flew up to the cage to check on the Scotsmen, he found them happily lounging around with their shirts off.
"What is the meaning of this?" The devil cried. "You're supposed to be in torment!"
The Glaswegians looked surprised "Naw" they said "it's pure quality taps aff weather here man. It's no drab an' dreek like Scotland, you know that way?"
Fuming, the devil flew to the great thermostat of Hell and cranked it all the way to the top. And the next day, the temperature was so high that even the demons were sweating, the stones of hell were melting and the flames from the lake of fire were leaping higher than ever before.
So the devil was surprised when he visited the Scotsmen and found that they had somehow procured plastic lawn furniture and Buckfast tonic wine.
Raising a glass to the devil, one of the Scotsmen said "Hey big man! If I'd known it was so lovely an warm doon here, I'd've done a whole lot more sinning! Weather's always poo in Glasgae. Always freezin' ma nuts off, you know?"
"I see." The devil replied, smiling though clenched teeth "your dismal country has given you a great love of heat. The hotter it is, the happier you are. Well, we'll see about that."
So saying, he flew to the great thermostat of Hell once more, but this time, he turned it all the way down.
The next day, the lake of fire was frozen solid for the first time, sinners were frozen in blocks of ice and demons huddled in corners for warmth, their teeth chattering.
But when the devil visited the Scotsmen, he found them jumping for joy, tearfully cheering "Scotland! SCOTLAND!!!"
The devil's jaw dropped. "What? Why? How? I burn you and you are happy! I freeze you and you celebrate! What is wrong with you?"
One of Glaswegians turned back and said "Is it no feckin' obvious ye daft bastart? Hell's frozen over! Scotland's won the world cup!"

They say the ghost of a 14 year old boy haunts the house of Krist Novoselic. There's been no sightings but it smells like teen spirit.

Prince Harry is currently at Tottenham learning how to live without a title.

Counselling works....
A desperate-looking woman stood poised on the edge of a high cliff about to jump off when a filthy tramp wandered by, stopped and said, “Look, since you’ll be dead in a few minutes, and it won't matter to you, how about a quickie before you go?"

She screamed, "NO! Bugger off you filthy old bar steward!”

He shrugged and turned away saying, “Okay, I’ll just go and wait at the bottom then."

She didn't jump.
 
 
 

The Pope is handing out miracles to kids in Liverpool. Billy walks on stage and asks “Can you please help me with my hearing ?” The Pope says “Yes” then he puts his hands on Billy’s ears and prays, he removes his hands and says “How is your hearing now ...?” “Billy replies ”I don’t know, it’s not till next Wednesday.”

This I like! First the sledgehammer, then the surgeon's scalpel. Beni at 18 years of age...
