I mean looking at that list, how many are really good tracks?

Australia is ok
China is ok
Azerbaijan is good
Imola is good
Canada is ok
Austria is good
Silverstone is good
Belgium is good
Monza is ok
Brazil is good

 

So out of 24 I make that 6 tracks that are actually good, and 4 that are "ok"

It's not great is it.

Monaco, Netherlands, Spain, MIami, Jeddah are all particularly shit

 

(By good I mean good for these cars to race on. Obviously tracks like monaco and Zaandvort are amazing tracks for quali and to actually drive on)

Suzuka?

Why is Cooper so highly rated?

Genuine question, I haven't been paying attention.

See aidy boothroyd, Phil brown, Chris wilder, Micky Adams, Ian Holloway etc

British managers who over achieve for a season or 2. Right club, right time.

He got Sassualo to verge of europe, just missed out last season. Two 8th place finishes and they were nice counter attacking team to watch under him. 

They were never going to appoint Sean Dyche. That's something we'd do....

We did, from houllier to mcleish

Seems Herta's dream is off for now. They were right not to bend the rules, but they surely have to go away and redress the unfair way the Indycar super licence points are drawn up. It's ridiculously low compared to where it should be, and you know it's because it's not an FIA series.

Strange one, the FIA always used to allow drivers a dispensation to drive even without a super license, pretty sure max was given clearance without having the required license

So a quick update, everyone who has donated and I really do thank you, my solicitors have sent my ex wife the letter saying under my instruction I am seeking fair contact, and she has agreed but has stopped me seeing them this weekend, saying they are busy this week. 

I really don't know what to say other than that, I'm so frustrated, angry

So sky have 3 commentators for this game

And a half time, let's hear what the reanimated corpses of Matt Busby and bill shankly think about this game

Thank you guys, really means a lot

Sorry you're going through this, mate.

Feel free to lob the gofundme link into this thread.

If that's ok that would be great, I've not had any donations yet, im also selling some guitars and some of my LPs to raise some money

Our pre match ritual of taking sleeping tablets washed down with 4 cans of special brew continues

Slow, ponderous, no urgency, pathetic and the worst part, it's not surprising.

We live in a society where we need to be told it's not ok to rape women

You can do it yourself where you just have to pay the court fees.

Document everything everytime you have been turned away everytime been refused / had plans cancelled put it in a diary so all easily seen and dated.

Try to keep communication through email or text not verbal again so can be documented. 

Big and obvious one but probably the hardest to do, keep your cool dont lose your temper. When you do go to court there is a safeguarding check every communication from the police is put on there, so if you go and start shouting and she rings police it doesnt look good when you get there.

From my experience I had a solicitor for the 1st hearing but quite honestly could have done without.

It was a room with magistrate myself solicitor and her and here solicitor and it was more a kind of negotiation. What do you want what does she want and then see of can agree to a plan. We couldnt and went to a second hearing that was more formal in a court room 3 magistrates again went through same process but this time they went out the room and then came back with what they thought should happen. 

There is another level to fight it after that but then you are talking barristers etc and it rarely changes the situation.

Be clear in what you want regarding physical contact time other contact (phone calls etc) xmas easter birthdays holidays try to think of all those life events and how you want to be a part or share the time to take with you.

You can also write these in a formal email to her saying what you would like and keep a record of it anyrespomses etc again to prove you have tried everything.

Trust me can be invaluable when your sat in front of a magistrate and a completely different person to the ex you know turns up talking as if they would never do such a thing. 

I have everything i need to show I've tried all reasonable requests, at one point she told me she wouldn't send the children to school so I couldn't pick them up

I've spent the last 2 days contacting solicitors, and I've decided to set up a gofundme page to hopefully raise enough for an initial consultation

The owners' wealth comes from duty free shops at airports, I imagine it's been a pretty miserable last few years for them so there's probably no cash to inject.

Or after winning the league and the FA cup, they've realised it's not worth checking money at it anymore 

Wonder if maddison will try and force this, you'd imagine a pretty big contract offer on the table from Newcastle

Sorry to hear the difficulties you are going through. 

Have you tried the Citizens Advice Bureau? 

Everything online from them says to do what I've already done, make an amicable arrangement on contact etc, if that breaks down to find a solicitor

So obviously I can't go into detail, but my ex is, after 2 years separated (now divorced) that she can stop me seeing our children on a whim, either by taking them on holiday on the agreed days Im supposed to have them, saying that she's busy and with them

Where's best to go with this, I've never ever wanted to go down this route but it's become ridiculous, any advice is greatly appreciated, the legal aid question I can't get a definitive answer online, and the solicitor I have contacted straight out said it was £199 just to have a consultation

Reckon i would take that £40 mil for Maddison if i was Leicester.

40 mil is a good price and that offer won't be around forever, i'd take it and invest.

Newcastle have gone back in with a bid of £50million now

Where does that leave Chilwell? 

He's got to get out of dodge of he wants to be on the plane 

I think chilwell is guaranteed a spot on the plane, Southgate didn't give targett a call up when he was playing well for us, so it's him and trippier I'd wager, depends if he's happy sitting on the bench now

Ah, I remember my grandad having an Austin ambassador vanden plas with ruched brown interior like that shirt

Stroll isn't a bad driver, just inconsistent, certainly not the worst F1 pay driver (I'm looking at you, max Chilton)

I'm surprised latifi has lasted so long, he must be paying a heck of a load of money to keep that seat
