  1. …In a poor team - what chance does he have? wish we’d stop continually labelling players shit or the worst ever etc etc. the hyperbole when describing players is pathetically childish - it’s like being in a school playground.
  2. You’d like the think so but we know the ineptness and bitterness of Southgate too.
  3. Watkins won’t push for a move if he doesn’t make the Euros. Hopefully this will be the last tournament under the management of Southgate and we can bring in someone else who doesn’t hate our club and loathed to select players despite form.
  4. I think Southgate will take Kane (obviously), Rashford and Toney as his striking options along with Grealish, Foden, Saka and Cole Palmer as his attacking options. Even if he took Watkins, he wouldn’t get many minutes.
  5. I don’t think he’s that bad but isn’t helped by an extremely substandard defence and midfield in front of him. he’s very young and lacks experience, which can’t be helped - I think he’ll go on to have a decent career.
  6. Well, no surprises in today’s results. Ireland barely had to get out of second gear, despite Wales rallying for 20 minutes in the second half. I totally expected Scotland to win but England played their part (both in a good and a bad way) in the match. England had a good game plan but it was so so poorly executed, which gifted Scotland into the game. Fair play to Scotland, they took their chances in clinical fashion. Way too many individual errors ultimately cost England the game and the return of Ollie Lawrence had no impact whatsoever.
  7. Off the top of my head, Baxter Dury, Sprints, Gruff Rhys, Ty Segall and Big Special are at the top of list to see. some really good younger bands on the bill too like Militaire Gun, Gurriers and Hot Wax. best of it is, it’s only 15,000 capacity so not stupidly big and busy and set in lovely woodland grounds
  8. have this on right now and it’s brilliant! a little jazzy/loungey but psychedelic at the same time. Some great drumming, bass lines and horns! if you like the last few Pepe Deluxe albums it might be worth checking out. I posted a track from it in the what song are you listening to thread.
  9. Nope Murder Capital are the Manchester support its not as if they’ve grabbed a load of their old buddies from Seattle and made a day of it. for £90 more I’ve got a ticket to End of the Road festival - four days of excellent stuff!
  10. Got through the Ticketmaster Pearl Jam ballot so could’ve bought tickets today. however, the £160 a ticket price put me right off (that and the only support slot going to Richard Ashcroft!)
  11. Bloody knew it! have to say, one of my favourite nights at Villa Park was against Ajax. At least Southgate might come and watch the game now (but only for Henderson!)
  12. Are we sure he was shot but instead injured himself with an electric drill
  13. Let’s hope so - they should’ve been banned from the competition due to their fans.
  14. Just stumbled across this and it’s pretty amazing. Never heard of them but their new album is out tomorrow and I’ll be checking it out for sure.
  15. I’m actually quite enjoying their ‘quieter’ musings and think they drift into and away from the more angsty Idles sound of old. The album is getting better with each listen for me Certainly looking forward to seeing them live later in the year.
  16. Have also been playing Idles - Tangk and BRJ (which I agree gets better with each play). also got Ty Segall - Three Bells, Sprints - Letter To Self and the new Grandaddy - Blu Wav on rotation
  17. out on March 7th. Will probably watch too!
  18. Yep. The Iron Claw is a fascinating watch with a very very good (and clearly committed) cast. I have little to no interest or knowledge of wrestling but loved the film.
