How were some of the sons of Thanos on the battlefield? They had been killed pre snap (the big dude was killed by Banner)...if everyone was brought back from the dead, how come Vision wasn’t there? If Vision wasn’t ever created (as Avengers never had the mind stone), then surely Scarlett Witch could never have had her powers as Hydra never had the Scepta?

Seeing it tonight, can't bloody wait! Where would you rank it?

Probably best of them all, but I'll have to see it again to be sure!

Brilliant wrap-up of a superb series of films. Loved it!

Obviously, it would be kicking and screaming, but I'd take Lambert back before Sherwood or Bruce.

What sort of sick mind even thinks up these sort of conundrums?

Alright, off to the cinema. Endgame, let's see what ya got!

Bumping this thread, as I've just upgraded to the paid version of Spotify. I have a question - what's to stop you joining for a month, downloading thousands of albums, and then leaving? I assume that these are not regular mp3s, i.e. you can only play them on Spotify, but can you play them on the free version, or do they somehow get disabled? 

All your downloads are encoded so that they can only be played through the Spotify app - although there are other apps that will play them, you generally need to still be logged in to Spotify for them to work.

That said... if you're willing to part with about US$40, there are other apps out there like Sidify that offer to convert your spotify downloads into generic mp3s that you can use of any device. This is technically piracy of course...

A lot of doom and gloom about Disney but for me the only thing they have done wrong so far is allowing RJ to **** the bed with TLJ and still let him have his trilogy. The bloke is an absolute tool. 

I’ve enjoyed everything else. R1 was fantastic and Solo & TFA were both fun.

Same here. TLJ was a mess, despite some great moments, but I thoroughly enjoyed the other other three. Rogue One in particular.

I think Denly would be the one to go. I'd like to see Archer play, he's one of the most exciting young talents I've ever seen. But at the same time, I won't be upset if he doesn't make it, it's a fantastic squad either way.

I would like to see him in the Ashes squad though.

Jeez there's some serious batting in this squad... preliminary only, which I guess is because they're waiting to see how Archer goes against Ireland and Pakistan.

 the jubilation only for it to be taken away.  every time you score you would need to tone down your celebrations until you the review is over.

This does my head in these days in cricket... the wicket is given, the players and fans celebrate and then we all wait five minutes for the third umpire to decide whether it's actually a wicket. The thrill/disappointment of the wicket as it happens goes out the window.

I can understand why some people like VAR, but I much prefer the game without it.

I'm pretty sure Gabby is our leading Premier League scorer (if we're counting goals purely scored in that competition). Some of Yorke's pre-date the Premier League formation. 

I think those figures I gave included cup games, cos yes, Gabby our leading PL scorer.

Manager of the month, great. Nailed on to lose on Saturday now.

Baros....... buying him for 6m was poor business although we made it back by effectively swopping him for Carew.

Kudos to O'Neill, he bought some right old toss at times but that one was a bloody brilliant bit of business!

Ashley Young getting a hammering from Man Utd fans. 11 crosses tonight, not one finding a Man U player. Gave away possession 32 times.

Sorry to spoil the fun, but Streatham Rovers is a fictional Twitter-based club - https://twitter.com/StreathamRovers

Awww no fair

Putting Angel's rather inconsistent form for us into perspective a little, he's still our third highest scorer in the Premier League era according to wikipedia:

Yorke 97 in 288

Gabby 74 in 284

Angel 62 in 205

I've got some fond memories of Gabby, but I can't help but think his retirement is more about nobody offering him another job than it is about not wanting to play for anyone other than Villa!

Adam Johnson.  He got released from chokey today after serving three years of his six year sentence.   It's conveniently just in time for him to get a full pre season in and look for a new club next season.  I wonder if there will be any takers? 

SHA, surely?

Yep. Very poor stuff.

I mean Buttler is still in the crease when he begins his delivery stride! Premeditated plan, horrendous sportsmanship

Poor show from Ashwin to get Buttler out. What a Representative for Wellingborough.
