  1. As a cat owner and ours is 19 years old and still going strong (thankfully), I’m absolutely disgusted by this. Everyday we’re so grateful that ours is still with us and the kids love him to bits. 

    At the very least, he/they shouldn’t be allowed to own a pet for a long time. The RSPCA should remove the cat or cats and they should then be given to a family that’ll cherish them dearly.

    Zouma is just a vile human being. 

    Edit - the fact he even starts the game tonight says a lot about the club and manager.

    2 good friends of mine lost their jobs at Villa when we were relegated. One of whom divorced and had a breakdown in the following months. Whilst that leach stole a living off us. Infuriates me. 


    This is exactly why he makes my blood boil.

    Truly awful that people lost their jobs and so much more subsequently, but he can laugh about getting drunk, being late for training and people not respecting him! Total tool.

    Roy Keane probably just wanted to see some professionalism and in the end thought sod it, I’m not being dragged down by these idiots.

  3. I can’t say if i’ve ever really liked Leeds and this has become even more so since the Elland Road controversy in April 2019. Has Bielsa lost his touch a little or been unlucky with injuries this season? Either way, it’ll be a battle, they’ll be tough to break and they’ll run hard for 90 minutes. We need to match them.

    However, similar to Everton last time out, I just feel that we have that little bit of extra quality now which means we have that edge over our opponents. The signing of Chambers is an interesting one and I just have a feeling that Gerrard may use him more often than not in the holding midfield position. I could be totally wrong on this though. 

    Night game, big roaring crowd, what’s not to like. Very much hope we smash them but going to be conservative and say 2-1 win.

    I would be very surprised if you had an issues on a proper screwdown crown. Once properly tightened, it should make it unlikely to catch on anything and, if it did, you would have to pull a screw out of its threads in order to make it move. 

    Was the Gucci crown was a pull to change either time or date, or was that also a screwdown crown?

    It is a pull out one to change time and date. It basically got caught and bent out of shape and upon trying to put it back in place, the crown came away. It’s just made me very cautious since but probably unnecessarily so.

    Chicken big mac

    Because its a crispier patty it's naturally drier and imo not as good, sure I've had it before at dubai Airport 

    The main thing was is 'kin hell McDonald's is cheaper in the UK, last month in Germany I paid £18 for a big tasty, mcrib and 9 nuggets, tonight in UK I paid £11 for chicken big mac, triple cheese burger, 9 nuggets and a large fries 

    Edit - makes it sound like I go to McDonald's a lot, I don't twice in a month but I'm sure it's 3 times in the last 2 years, tonight was a reminder why... Its just garbage ain't it? Completely unsatisfactory and I'm full of regret 


    I agree, the problem I have is that the kids ask for it all the time. If we have a takeaway treat we give them all the options available but they always go back to this. It just isn’t a satisfying meal. Expensive as well for a family of four when comparing it to say a chippy tea.

    Have you looked at the Tudor Black Bay 58?

    It’s a lovely watch and yes, I had thought about it. Approx £3000 I think and thanks for the suggestion 👍

    The issue I have and with any future watch purchase now is that a few years ago the crown on my Gucci watch caught on my jeans pocket and it snapped off. Cost a bit to repair and now I look for watches where the crown has some protection so it’s less prominent. Just a fear I have now, especially when considering such an expensive purchase.

  7. I really like Tudor watches and had my eye on a Tudor Pelagos (black face) but the £3600 price tag is putting me off. Not sure if there’s a similar alternative or finding it considerably cheaper? Any suggestions welcome.

    It was a Rolex submariner with a black face that I really wanted years ago but missed the boat before the kids arrived and now can’t justify an £8,000 plus purchase.

    Where are u seeing that? Everything I have read about them is that they are both out till March. Both have Hammy injuries and Philips had surgery in Dec. 

    It appears both have returned to light training this week, so highly unlikely that they’ll be fit. Certainly neither will start but I suppose one or both could make the bench at best. Very doubtful though I’d say.

    If we're full on in a 90's frozen food nostalgia kick, then Findus crispy pancakes deserve a mention. 

    Cook in the oven until the contents are hotter than lava. 

    Bit controversial but I really liked the chicken curry ones. Think they stopped them quite quickly probably because they were less popular than beef or cheese.

    Why will he always be marmite though? Because he’s a chilled out character off the field?  I honestly don’t get the hate, the last player that wowed me like he did was Ronaldinho, I’m not saying Bert is remotely close to Ronaldinho’s level, but the bloke does things no other can.


    Think you’ve misunderstood me. The perception of Bert amongst a lot of fans, ours included, is that he doesn’t work hard enough for the team and that he’s not a team player etc.  That why he’s marmite, people either love him or dislike him. 

    As I said previously, I personally love him and his box of tricks.

    Been watching The Teacher on channel 5, started Monday night and on every night until Thursday. 

    Sheridan Smith is great. Enjoying it so far. 

    She plays a teacher accused of sleeping with a 15 year old student on a night out and the aftermath. 


    Yes, Mrs F and I are watching it and it’s an enjoyable watch. With Mrs F being a teacher herself, we’re both intrigued to see how this all plays out 👍
