Highland Hunter just failed after being off for best part of two years .Be interesting to see where they go with him but should be 100% primed wherever he goes 

Very unlucky there pal. He's another to keep an eye on.

He really is coming along. Another couple of years developing at this rate and he will be about ready to join us.

Yes, a good old fashion Craig Gardner style 'I've always been a Villan' would be quite hillarious.

The unwashed will tear down the bridge and bring the shirt number back out of retirement!

One winner Lookaway and I thought Bells Of Peterboro was unlucky leading with that bad mistake at the last which cost him his chance. Strictly is a horse to watch for Christian Williams staying on for 4th in same race, he’s being primed for a big handicap over staying distances . Angels Breath drifting out to 10/1 finishing second and is another who could pop up after a long layoff just. 

Yes. I seen that Ruge. Very unlucky.

The others you mention have also been noted for the future.

Railway Hurricane wiped out at the starting post in his race too.. finished 2nd in the end.

But as we know.. That's racing.

Onto tomorrow we go!

Heard they are interviewing Jake Paul on Tuesday 

At the rate they're going they're 'Prime' relegation candidates, so he would be a perfect fit.

Making fun of people with reading and writing problems isn't funny and is in fact quite shameful, although that's probably only an unpopular opinion on this forum, if you don't believe me see the weekend football threads every weekend to see it's true, all because people are 'like' gluttons or want a cheap laugh. Should be encouraging these people for having a go, not driving them into secrecy and sorrow, and not very encouraging for people who want sign up but are nervous to do so because because their literacy skills might be deemed low either.

Also the word 'mate' employed in a sarcastic way in the small heath thread, a few times now and then fair enough, but in every other post get tedious

And yes I know saying these will make people do it even more, or 'hilariously' find a spelling/grammar mistake in this post and make fun of it, but that rather makes my point for me - the doing it even more, not making fun of this post.

 

On a platform that is mostly 'font' orientated, spelling mistakes happen everyday. How are posters supposed to decipher a reading/writing problem of someone when predictive text also plays a part in misspelling words on people's posts? It happens to me all the time and a few latch onto it and a giggle follows. I've never taken offence to it and it's laughed off.

If there was a problem, I would pull any said poster up via a DM. I would encourage others to also do the same which would then help raise awareness perhaps?

We live in a era where 'were encouraged to speak up' about these things.

You made a thread the other day on here in OT about things that 'make you sad', two posters - myself being one, immediately asked you if everything was okay?.. we were ignored.

I see various posters quoting you/responding to you in other threads but never any direct response to them either. Is it ignorance? Is it an illness? Who knows.. It's a forum and we're not mind readers.

As for the small heath thread, that too has been a long running joke and a thread of pure hilarity and banter against that lot down the road. I'm sure you're well aware where "mate" originates.

If I see a thread I don't like, don't agree with, causes me offence or know naff all about, I avoid it altogether and do not even enter to read, let alone post.

On topic has became a universe where GIFs are awash... I either choose to accept it, or just ignore it. I guess avoiding it is also an option if it really bothered me.

All I can suggest (to anyone who cares) is maybe avoiding the places/threads/posters that you find offensive or uneasy to deal with. Ignore list is there for a reason, but no offence here, you don't do yourself any favours either with your posting style and not replying to others.

Generally, I think everything is done/posted on here in mostly good spirits/banter with no real offence or malice intended.

Like this post to you..   no offence intended.

Last one of the afternoon for me now I need to go out!

Throwing the last of today's allocated pot on 'Railway Hurricane' @ 9/1 in the 3.20

El Efante (Win) in 2.45.

4 horse race next but I don't like the SPF, So only a few quid for a bit of interest on this one.

Jetronic @ 100/30. Win

- Also couple of quid reverse forecast including Walk on Clover.

I wouldn’t drop Tielmans after tonight.  He took his chance with motm, have to award that

So you thinking starting Tielemans over either McGinn or possibly Kamara?

9 minutes ago, HeyAnty said:

I agree.  Do we drop Diaby?  He doesn’t deserved to be dropped either.  McGinn could do with a rest.

I think I would have Diaby, McGinn, Bailey in front of Kamara and Luiz.

Just now, NeilS said:

Yeah, I have checked the tables on the bbc and @rjw63 is correct. We are currently in second place.

I agree, sorry, my post should have read very odd format/rule.

I'm sure it won't matter come the end of the group stage.

Bailey needs to start!

I think he will. He's right back on it and hard not to see him start on Sunday.

It must go to head to head results before goal difference. We may well have to beat them at home to make certain of finishing above them.

Very odd if that is the case.

I think that wording is typical for places like Haven which don’t want 8 lads piling into a £30k caravan and wrecking it. 

Yeah true. Some of the staff at these places can come across as bright as a dark night.

I like Zaniolo, but in this form it's Leon all day.

I hope/expect Zaniolo will find his best and take off as well!

In fairness, different uses in different game perhaps.

He has been on it these last few weeks and I'm glad to see it's coming good for him now at last.

I bet you're delighted more than anyone JV!

A shrewd pick up with Mings out for the season. 

Yes, not a bad little bit of business there was it.
