  1. Struggling  this year to get in the spirit.

    With a  6,5 and 1 year old I should be in peak xmas mood but i just find myself pretending for them. 

    Mixture of work covid dark nights all just getting a bit to me.

    Not helped by the fact my lads main gift is tickets to a monster truck show in January which I'm pretty sure will be cancelled

    We didn’t have the option to accept the bid also.

    After just surviving to stay up Grealish’s agent definitely negotiated a release clause otherwise that 5 year deal would not have been signed.

    It looks like the release clause has been triggered.

    If not a release clause definitely a gentleman's agreement

    if you brought off topic logic into football, then football wouldnt be football would it.  Football is as big as it is because the feelings around it.  I mean going to the ground season after season and being beaten in the last decade or so, you wouldnt do that in any other walk of life, you'd just walk away whether a job, a girlfriend and especially programs, you wouldnt stand for that.  But football we follow never mind how bad it gets and we keep paying fortunes and being hopeful.  This is simple to understand why on topic is different to off topic

    I disagree you can love club be passionate have strong feelings without wishing Ill on players that leave.

    We support the team not one player the team lives on everyone else is just opposition. We hope we beat them nothing more

  4. For what it's worth I think theres been an agreement (not a clause) last season that if anyone bids 100 million then we will let him leave.

    His agent will have told city this which is why gone straight in with it.

    It's all up to him now and how he feels he will already know what both  clubs are offering and will have known for some time.

    Wouldnt blame him either way to be honest it's easy to say what we would do in this position but nobody can say for sure unless actually faced with it.

    Either way we survive we are villa

    I've highlighted the concerning parts. 

    Any 'get rich quick scheme' is just that - a scheme to make certain people rich - the people behind it! 

    You'd be better off putting money into an index tracker via a stocks and shares ISA. 

    Thanks that was my thoughts. I told her dont think it's a good idea and seems like a sort of pyramid scheme. The more people you get to sign up you level up apparently and make what they call passive income!!

    After the school run today it seems like she is not going to go with it apparently her friends where really pushing it in sales mode. They let slip that if they can get 2 people to sign up they dont have to pay the £150 a month subscription!!

  7. Any one on here used Hfx academy for binary options trading?

    I know nothing about trading or really got  any interest in learning too much about it, but my partner has been talking with her friends who are members and now she is interested.

    The sales pitch seems to be that you dont need to know anything about it can follow their live stream advice and make money, sounds easy but I'm always sceptical when something sounds too easy.

    And the monthly cost seems high

  8. I think the frustration is that fury and his team agreed and signed the fight dismissing the court hearing as not a problem.

    Clearly they where wrong and should never have got this far down the line without being 100 % sure.

    Imagine what Fury Warren or Aram would be saying now is it was the other way round and Joshua suddenly pulled out of fight because he needed to fight usak

    The "heed tha ba'" problem may stem mainly from that 1960s generation, when footballs were very different from those of today. I'm old enough to remember playing with wet, heavy leather caseballs, lacing and all, which made the modern equivalents look like balloons. I'd be surprised if the brain damage statistics remain high for today's players. 

    Could there be an argument to say the players today are more physically developed.

    So although the ball is lighter the force the ball is kicked at is a lot more.

    The size of some of the modern days players legs I wouldn't want to be sticking my head in the way of a ball they kicked

  10. If no fans are allowed which is pretty obvious will be the case, surely the home advantage angle is void and it doesn't matter where the games are played.

    For what it's worth I'm sick of it all the premier league, football in general and the insistence on playing through this at any costs.

    It sold its soul many years ago and has been reaping the benefits and now the time has come to pay up. I had already fallen out of love with the game but this has pushed me over the edge I just don't care anymore
