  1. 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.

    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.

    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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Not ITK or anything but this was taken 10 minutes ago in Tipton. Not sure why he still wearing his Villa tracksuit but obviously been in talks all day with WBA and now deserves a Naan Kebab:
  7. 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.
  8. 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
  9. If we had to put a fair value on him right now, what would it be do you think? Must be £60m or £70m plus?
  10. Bert will always be marmite to fans of whichever club he plays for. Lyon fans were the same. Personally, I really like him. I want to be entertained, I want to see the unexpected. He certainly has a place in our squad at present.
  11. The thing to remember here is that Targett isn’t going to get many games between now and the end of this the season, unless Digne gets injured. His value therefore isn’t going to increase whilst he’s on the bench. In addition, the recent comment from Gerrard about fighting for your place was telling. Perhaps he now has a desire to go and doesn’t want to fight for a place? Some players want to feel secure in their position. I very much doubt we’ll give encouragement for a bid but can certainly see one incoming. We should definitely be looking towards £25m plus at this point, especially if it’s Newcastle.
  12. I remember them Alex and used to have them as well. I forgot about them completely until I saw your post. They were called ‘Ketchips’. We’d have them usually with a Bernard Matthews Chicken Escalope or a Dalepak rib steak thing.
  13. Usually with just a pin/needle. With slight movement and testing, you can usually get them right for you in a few seconds
  14. Honestly don’t see how we can turn down £35-£40m if he’s flatly refusing to even discuss a new contract? We’re a business and we’d be making a decent profit on someone that hardly sets the Premier League alight with his displays. I don’t dislike Dougie at all and a good player but it’s good money and he is replaceable.
  15. So what if you’ve been doing it for 2 years? We all have and to be honest, this could be a way of life now. Deaths stable? What does this even mean? An acceptable level of people dying? Be nice if we can have the death rate at zero don’t you think? Have you that thought an old vulnerable person may have no choice but to use their local supermarket to get their shopping and if people like you pass something on and cause them to be hospitalised and potentially die, does that not bother you? For the sake of wearing a mask for probably 10 or 15 minutes, it’s hardly an inconvenience.
  16. I can see a move happening before this window shuts next week. It just feels inevitable. Pretty sure though that we won’t allow him to move unless someone else comes in. I’m really not sure if he’s progressed as much as we’d hoped he would have at this point?
  17. Probably for another thread but I hope this isn’t some sweetener from Arsenal in order to get Luiz before Monday? One for the conspiracy dump store but I’m a little suspicious.

  19. Jeez, where did this move come from? I’ve never really thought that much of him but never really watched him closely when he’s been playing for Arsenal. Gerrard clearly rates him as good enough for the squad, so that’s good enough for me.
  20. I’m really pleased we’re progressing this side of the club. It certainly adds something, whether it be to our overall brand, attracting new fans and improving that winning mentality throughout the club. Clearly the women’s game is growing at quite a fast rate, with increasing TV exposure, we’d be mad to ignore it. It’s refreshing and I’ve enjoyed watching them this season. Would just be great if we can make that next step and get in amongst the top six clubs next season.
  21. Chicken & Mushroom? If I have one of these I always add a few gravy granules for extra flavour
  22. They’re a really fed up bunch aren’t they? Listening to some of the fans, they play dire football, have an ageing squad and look unlikely to catch the automatic spots.
