    BaaLocks got a reaction from Papahet in v Charlton Athletic (H) Match Day Thread   
    I know we are all focusing on Cashin last night but the strange thing for me is that NML was having a bang average game and yet we kept punting it out to him, even when Corey Blackett Smith came on. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different result.
    This team should be so much better than it is, in the like of Cashin, Nelson, NML, Gayle, Hourihane (supposedly), Bird we have stand out players in this league throughout our team. We should be tearing it a new one. And that is not arrogant or "we're a big club in the wrong division" it is just that with these players we should not be letting teams like Wycombe, Charlton, Shrewsbury, Lincoln, Reading take points off us. Currently, we are nowhere near top two quality yet we should be eating this league alive.

    If you haven't already, give Alice and Jack a try on Channel 4. Angela Riseborough and Dominic Gleeson (plus a robust support from Aisling Bea). Two episodes in and find it so much of what I was hoping to get from One Day. Well scripted, genuine chemistry between the leads, a bit of aching over what a mess they seem to want to make of it all. Well worth it, and I hope it continues in the same vein.

    The Angel - Ashraf Marwan, President Nasser's son and special adviser to Anwar Sadat, begins to sell classified information to Mossad. Is his motivation simply greed, or has he a nobler cause?
    No spoilers from me, but well worthy of a watch. It felt quite balanced which I had not taken for granted and Marwan Kenzari and Toby Kebbell are both excellent playing Ashraf Marwan and his Mossad handler respectively.

    Good point, well made. I came into the chat for chance to have a rant about how it can't be right that Peter Sutcliffe gets to keep his passport while a 15 year old girl groomed and pretty much trafficked doesn't, how having a second passport means you can have your British one taken off you (but only if you have a second one) seems kinda, well, racist.
    But I read your post and I thought - you know what, that gadgie makes a good point. Cheers to you for it.

    Ambika Mod is far more believable than Hathaway as the girl whose charms are overlooked. She has more natural humour and charisma.

    Yeah, I've also heard that when he's good he's special. To be fair, one of the times I saw him was at Wembley Arena - I think you could see The Beatles supported by Jimi Hendrix (with Janis Joplin on backing vocals) there and it would still be underwhelming.

    The Blunts now are the third club (after Sunderland and Wolves) to achieve the feat twice. This is the third closest any team has come after, strangely, Sheffield United in 2021 and Huddersfield in 2019. To put it into perspective, Sheffield United still passed eleven points a full 48 days before 29th March, which is the date we were relegated in 2008. This record is going nowhere.....
