  1. Assuming 5th gets CL then we'll be OK. It would take something of epic proportions for us to fall below 5th. Speaking frankly, we're not ready for the Champions League. The only benefit is financial, as we won't be massively competitive in it.
  2. Playing devil's advocate, if they want people back 3 days, then they have every right to request that. If people are on an office based contract, i'm not sure what the argument Whether it is right/productive is a different question, but they're the ones paying the wages. We were told at our place to be back 3 days in the office, and while people moaned at first (myself included), we did it as we want to keep our jobs! Civil servants threatening to go on strike as they are being told to go back 2 days is a bit cheeky IMO. At our company, results/productivity actually improved when people worked from home as they were doing longer hours as they were working their commuting time generally. Personally, i think 3 days is a bit much, 2 days would have been my preference. There will always be people that take the piss though when WFH, those people should be dealt with on an individual basis. I've kinda drifted off on a tangent here!
  3. In the office/room at the back? I just think conducting a job interview in a public place is not fair. Maybe i'm overthinking it. Perfect for this thread though as it shouldn't piss me off...
  4. People conducting job interviews in coffee shops.
  5. I own(ed) a Man City shirt. Let me give this some context. When I was in the middle of a major gym addition back in the early 00s, I was spending 3 hours a day at the gym, at least 5 times a week. Doing cardio. I started with just regular t-shirts, but they were getting so drenched with sweat, I struggled to take them off! Football shirts were far better. I ended up buying a load of cheap football shirts from somewhere like JJB/JD/Intersport etc, as they were last seasons. Most were overseas teams or national team shirts, but there was also the Man City. It was the Kappa one with the logo down the arms, back when Citeh were plummeting towards the lower leagues. Even today I think it looks like a cool shirt.
  6. One for the Unpopular Opinions thread

  9. Its about the only thing health wise I can flex about
  10. I hope she is on the new minimum wage structure
  11. It impacts people differently. I think i've had it twice, and nothing more than a mild cold from memory. Quite lucky in that respect.
  12. I went twice as a kid with the blues supporting family that used to live opposite us. it was the 'kids for a quid' time. Must have been the Barry Fry era. Not surprisingly they failed to win either game. In one, if memory serves, they lost in the last minute!
  13. 10 years in WMP and he reckons that game was the biggest injustice he's seen!
  14. To be fair to him, he's probably earning big money for watching football.

    De Zerbi must be Liverpool bound based on all arse licking Klopp was doing to him.
  16. Entitled prick. He's seen more success as a Man Utd fan than we'll ever see.
  17. He reckons they should be 4th!
  18. I thought his full name was Cole Palmer Penalty.
  19. Not worth more than £25m
  20. I'm pretty sure we've had a confessions thread before, but predictably it slipped into filth and depravity and was probably deleted. So this is the PG version Anything you want to fess up to, that has been playing on your mind? I'll start... I once purchased a UB40 album pray for Xela
