I will quote @Gee SCREAMER !! from a few weeks back - Hourihane is stealing a living in this team. Absolutely stealing one.... For a player that was supposed to be our linchpin he has been woeful in all but two or three games. Sibley is still living off that Milwall hat-trick (if ever there was an example of lucking out that was it, I'd be surprised if he scores three more goals in the rest of his career) and Bird just seems to get muscled off the ball too easily. Some say Bird gets himself about but that is for naught if you can't control and distribute the ball when you win it back.
To not score against either Lincoln or Reading and to not even have a shot on goal when a win would have taken us top shows just how poor this side actually is. And while we can point blame at Hourihane, Bird and Sibley it is also true that time and again, it's the summer signings that have been the undoing of us, there is simply no quality in nearly all of what was brought in. Nothing to even suggest we can change a game when things aren't going our way. Ward, Bradley, Washington etc. have just been bang average. Nelson, Elder, Nyambe, Wilson have replaced what was there before (Davies, Roberts etc) but besides that this team is not better than the one of loans and favours we cobbled together last season.
As for Warne, I'm not sure you can blame him as much for the footballing ideas and general intent but if you don't have bite in the centre of the park you can shout and wail all you want to get it out wide. Not much point though if you can't keep the ball for more than ten seconds or find a man in space when you do.
What I will say is that tactically Warne doesn't seem to do his homework - mate of mine is a Reading fan, tells me before the game that Azeez is the main threat. So what happens, we let him run free for the first half before we work it out? Surely someone, somewhere watched a video and had a think about what they were going up against?
Depressingly poor performance against a team that we should have cantered to a win against.

France tried something like this, pretty much a tax that was at a rate of something like 80% over €1m of earnings. It never got through, to my recollection.
I've always wondered for film stars, entrepreneurs and the like there must just come a day where they wake up and think "this has all just gone mad". So few of them manage to remain grounded (Keanu being an example). I think they all just decide they need more 'stuff' - extra telly, then new watch, then new car, then extra house, then two houses, then five cars, then on and on it goes.
The problem for many of us as well is comparative wealth - I've heard it said that one of the better measures of contentedness is that you earn more than your friends. I also remember hearing a story that Roman Abramovich scrapped / sold a new yacht because he realised that one of the other oligarchs had gone and bought one bigger.
My point? It's not about wealth, relative wealth or desired wealth. It's about being contented with your own position in life - my Mum was anything but a millionaire (anything but!). But she was also always happy with her lot and I can assure you she lived a far happier life than many 'successful' businessmen. And her pot of ashes looks just the same as theirs.

And, all a bit of a hassle to run the hoover round - or pay someone else to do it. To quote Fight Club (which I know you're not supposed to do) "the things you own end up owning you"

They're clearly trying to get their revenge on us from the Butterfield - Winnall loan deal.

I went to a midnight auction with a friend, because we couldn't sleep, and I bought Ronnie Barker's duvet for £5. My mate then bought Ronnie Corbett's for £3, so it was a good night for me and a good night for him.

I thought Meyer just nicked it

I thought Mayer was even more unlucky with the decision against Baumgardner, tonight’s fight was closer

I wouldn't say there is advnce as such because, as others have suggested, you will need to be a different person at every stage. But I would say two things. First is that it goes so quickly, savour every single moment - even the tough ones. And second, when one stage is gone it is gone. As someone once said to me, there will be a day when you pick up your child and carry them in your arms for the last time. On the day that happens neither you nor they will know it will be the last time, but it will, and it will then be gone forever. So cherish it now.

You could have just left her to feed the baby in peace?

I think Mikaela Mayer can consider herself hard done to there. Spent most of the fight on the front foot, clearly landed the bigger shots but came up short. Not going out on a limb and saying she was robbed, it was a close, close fight and you have to clearly win it when you are fighting the champ on their own turf. But she will fly home feeling she did enough - again!

Yeah, i said when they booed the Star Spangled Banner it was bad form, only for them to boo GTSK even louder.

Back on topic - I can't stand Valentine's Day when you are in a relationship. In years gone by you sent a secret card to someone you had a crush on, or to be a little more grown up wanted to show affection. It was anonymous and there was an aura to it. Now you have to not only buy your wife a card but also flowers, chocolates, out for a meal. 
It's another example where "they" put pressure on us to spend money and act in a certain manner, which as an ageing punk rockers (without multicoloured Doc Martens) goes right against my core. Then we're asked to do it again on March 8th now (international women's day), anniversary, Christmas, birthday, Easter, Summer Solstice and about five more in the year.
Don't get me wrong, love my wife and happy to show it. Just get a little riled when someone in a marketing department tells me "you have to do it in this way, on this date or else you are a failure". 

Well done!
