I'm not sure anyone's doing anything especially wrong there. 9 times out of 10 that ball will come where Targett and Axel are at the near post. Konsa is goal side as he should be which allows the near post player to get on to redirect the ball first. Toney in space is the biggest problem but he gambles on the cut back and has no-one with him.

Seems we concede a lot of goals where it's just a run of bad luck.

This thread is pretty depressing, and shows the fairly depressing state of play in the party at the moment. A total coincidence that Jess and most of the Young Labour Committee are on the left, I'm sure. No platform for Palistine Solidarity Campaign either. Getting harder and harder for me to justify being a member, but then I think that's the point. 

 

This Keir fellow just can't catch a break. Every time Labour proscribes a group there's a picture of him with them

Does anyone think kids should be vaccinated ? I’m not sure what I think regarding that. 

Do kids get vaccinated for anything else?

But then a parent or guardian is making their decision for them, which is against their rights about what goes in their body. So we should stop feeding kids too.

But, it doesn't. gov.uk website.

"However, even if you have been fully vaccinated, you could still get COVID-19 and pass it on to others"

You could, but the chances are vastly reduced. Therefore it does stop all of those 3 things you said. Not a 100% stop but it still stops it.

A coat stops you from getting cold. But of course you wouldn't wear one at any time because you'd be worried about it not stopping you getting hypothermia at -50.

Biopsy tomorrow (Lymph) as they can't find anything obvious.

He is getting a bit worse every day.  I have never been so upset and sad in my life, I am not crying but I have tears falling on and off all day.  It's weird as ****.

Apart from family he is all I have got in Holland.  

I lost my job last week so at least I will be home for a month or so with him.

I have him insured for 20k,  I pay 20% of anything,  lets see what they say.

 

 

Sorry to hear this. Hopefully they'll find something they can sort.

Ramsey is okay, but struggles to make 90 minutes, Chuka has proved he's just not ready for the Premier league, Nakamba is still Championship, Luiz and McGinn a bit temperamental and Sanson, I'm not sure he is going to make it.

Unfortunately, I agree

Probably the most negative post I've read on here for awhile. 

Probably about the most realistic also

Would definitely have been an upgrade on either of Young or Carney on Saturday.

Let's hope we have someone better coming in.

Couldn't help feeling yesterday that if you took Ashley Young and Carney Chukwuemeka out and replaced them with Marvelous Nakamba and Conor Hourihane we would have controlled the midfield and won the game.

Season 1 has genuinely one of the funniest moments on TV I've ever seen.  Got me in the mood to watch it all over again.

Think I've just seen it. Aunt?

It still blows my mind that Keir didn't kick the guy out of the party who shared a platform with someone who was literally responsible for a million deaths

No, C means Control. If there’s anything on the C line it means the test works.

T means Test. Anything on the T line, providing there is a line on the C, means positive.

edit; I definitely misjudged what you were actually saying, but to me it read like you were saying anything on the C means it’s positive regardless of what it says on the T which is incorrect so I’ll leave the clarification up!

Yeah I got it backwards. You're right it's that way round.

He's a comedy genius. 

Did you like Seinfeld? 

Not sure. I think I tried to watch it before and couldn't get anywhere but may give it another go now.

Well this is awkward. How will he get out of this one? Turns out guilt by association is utter nonsense. Who knew?

Decided to see if Curb Your Enthusiasm is worth the hype.

1 ep in and so far it's making me laugh. Bodes well.

My wife's done 3 home tests now, all 3 are strong line on the test faint line on the control 

The t line goes strong colour straight away the c line needs the 15 mins to go faint

Does this mean positive or invalid? 

If there's anything on the C line then it's positive I think

Fair result in the end although had Oli come on earlier might had been a different story.Ref and linesman over our side dreadful.We aren’t the pretty team we used to be who would get bullied out of games and opposing fans would praise after beating us as I said pre match we  have a more  physical aggressive mid field.We have been lucky that our first 3 games have been against under strength sides but you have take that as not one of our squad has ever played in the PL.
          Although I’ve seen all the previous games in recent years at Villa Park this is the first time I’ve seen it with 42000 in and what an impressive sight it is in a truly wonderful stadium.Oli got a great reception from our fans and as expected Dean Smith congratulated his former players after the game the mans class.Also good to see Bees fans mingling and chatting with Villa fans at the station after the game all very civil.Very different from my experiences over the other side of the city.

Very genuinely Impressive seeing the Brentford fans applauding Watkins. Some great fans on the train too. How it should be.

This made me chuckle. Looks like the painter and decorator was checking what colour they wanted the dressing room.

Wasn't impressed in this game. I know he's got the potential to play better but he gave the ball away a lot and was quite ponderous at times.

That said, I know he's only 17 so he needs to be cut some slack. I just don't think he's ready for our first team.

From a7:

Martinez: 7 not a lot to do

Cash: 7 dealt with most things well, couple of mistakes

Konsa: 7 not much to do

Tuanzebe: 7 see Konsa

Targett: 8 much improved and dangerous going forward

Luiz: 8 battled well and kept it simple enough

Young: 6 not good enough for this level any more I'm afraid

Chukwuemeka: 5 overawed and needs to be more committed for the PL

Buendia: 8 dangerous and will get better

El Ghazi: 8 best I've seen him play. All over them

Ings: 6 tried but couldn't get into the game

Subs didn't have a lot of time to impress but Nakamba was solid

Ref was utterly shocking

Ha no typo. 411,000. Good spot

Are we still ****ing the hippies and their maths?  

Anyway, isn't it 260,000 a day? Maths was never my strong point.

385*20=7700

2,000,000,000/7700 = 259,740?
