Poor buggers were on a trip out from a home and the 'carer' had brought them into the wrong film.  They didn't stay after the opening blood all over white leather scene.  Hope they got shifted to the right screening. 

Texas Chainsaw Massacre?

This is a pivotal point in our season. How we react to this defeat will be definitive I feel. 

We can still break into the autos if we can put another run together.

Not sure what some people are on with their knee jerk get rid of this or that player.

 

We can't afford to get rid of anyone.

Most over-rated since Morgan Whittaker? Maybe one day he'll be playing against us and he'll do something to change your view.

Probably ok in a good side.

If we'd only have drawn at their place (they did go ahead remember) and scraped a draw today, we'd still be worse off.

They battered us.

Sorry but the sooner we get an improvement on Max Bird the better. He was anonymous in this match. Poor work ethic and offers nothing going forward or back. If we got any fee for him I would class it as a bonus 

He was hopless. Most overated Derby 'prodige' in ages. Shows how short we are in midfield.

It's about fireworks, not your bowel movements.

When was the last time we won when 'live on Sky'?

Probably completely unfounded, but I honestly can't remember!

Yep I had a look to see if they have any injuries, any possible points deductions for previous unpaid wages or anything like that but nothing, it's strange.

Not strange at all, it means punters have seen our form and have put serious wonga down for us to win, (that's how bookmaking works).

Did you re-enact Oliver’s dance right at the end for her?😀

Yes, but there was a lot less swinging about! 😢

Saltburn (on Amazon).

Completely ruined by absolutely shocking audio (the dialogue was inaudible). Should have gone to the cinema.

Won't be to everyone's taste, but Mrs Grumpy enjoyed it, so I'm happy! 😬

Close the thread.

I’ve not ruled it out completely GG. I know the timetable well having used it for the past two seasons. Appreciate the post though!

I’m going to leave it to closer to the day as a puff of wind or mild drizzle can disrupt the service and I can’t afford to be stranded.

Cheers.

The railway cannot leave you stranded, (it's the law). They MUST organise you a taxi to your final destination (or provide overnight accommodation if a taxi is not possible).

Travel on New Year’s Day is a bit of a lottery. I think that will keep some people (myself included) away.

Gutted really because it’s the kind of fixture I bought my season ticket for.

 

New Years Day should be absolutely fine by train and there can't be any industry action now as is closer than 14 days away.

Loads of trains between Bristol and Derby next Monday, including this one. 👍🏻

To be fair, if we really did live in the 70s we certainly wouldn't be sitting down or bothering to go down to the concourse for a slash 😉

How much does a pint of Ginnis cost in Scouseland ?

Nowt, we steal it.

I don't think I've ever seen such a clear cut penalty in all my years. WTF was Ward thinking?

Nice to play a team who didn't park the bus.

They check your ticket on a flight if you are turning left instead of right on boarding

Not been on a wide body since 1991. 😭

This thread has certainly  done a good job of revealing which posters must look like dodgy f******, with a knack for  catching the eye of security staff, and which look like butter wouldn't melt.

The plane thing, I just don't believe, .....

This is not the House of Commons, so be a bit braver and call me a liar!

I do remember being asked to show my boarding pass at the plane door on at least one occasion, but not in the last 20 years, (the automatic checks since 9/11 have done away with the need).

4 hours ago, Tamworthram said:

So what was the process? Three checks?

Every time you went up or down the stairs.

So four in my case (five with the turnstile). Good job I hadn't had a proper bellyfull before.

.......and very few flights where a visual check of the BP wasn't demanded on entering the plane (though I have seen people get on without being challenged).

I've probably boarded 300+ flights in the last 20 years.

I honestly cannot remember the last time I was asked to show my boarding pass at the plane door.

The checks in the SS v Wycombe were complete overkill. An absolute shambles and totally unnecessary.

If they continue, I can see there being plenty of gaps next season when regulars move elsewhere.
