  1. I was just reading the comments made by the Exeter manager, Caldwell. Really extolling the virtues of Sinisalo, so refreshing to hear and certainly augurs well for his and our times ahead.
  2. There's been some fantastic Dutch centre - half's ever since the great Holland sides from the 70's. I wouldn't consider his inclusion a foregone conclusion.
  3. I was being flippant. However, I have received a yellow card, believe it or not, for just posting in the wrong thread.
  4. Watching Himalaya with Michael Palin. The episode where he meets the Mosuo people of China, he does come across as a slightly dirty old man, albeit, in a jocular kind of way.
  5. You have to hand it to Crawford, picking Madrimov as his next opponent speaks volumes about his self - confidence. This is a harder fight than Spence imo.
  6. He isn't even Rijkarrd, never mind Beckenbauer. He would struggle to get in the top 20 of best Dutch centre - halves.
  7. I was just about to post that idea. If they continue to drop points then, you never know.
  8. As an Everton fan just remarked on TS, "The only people who like Liverpool are Liverpool." Not a bad shout that.
  9. On the pedantic side, the "The Harlem Globetrotters" never played in a competitive framework. Hence, why they were unbeatable.
  10. Bournemouth hadn't been too bad before playing us. They even beat Wolves tonight at their Gaff.
  11. They just don't possess the ability from a psychological aspect to win all their games in hand. It's ours to lose more than it's theirs to win, by a long, long way.
  12. I somewhat agree. However, the league table at the end of the season tells it's own story.
  13. Remember we're now in a no excuses era. If we miss out on the top 4 it will be down to us as a team. Where do you get, "Nearly 2 full seasons" from? We was nowhere near the top 4 last season. We were close to relegation when Gerrard left and then by the brilliance of Unai managed to get the last spot for Europe. We have been virtually top 4 all this season, but 2 full seasons, I don't think so. I see what you mean. I missed the word "Form." Apologies.
  14. Younger players are maybe less attentive as a result of being less mature. There's a lot of former great players who I could imagine having trouble sitting through such a session. "Gascoigne" for instance
  15. Why would it be "Absolutely Scandalous?" It looks like a foregone conclusion that we will, but even if we were to finish, say, 5th and win the ECL, it would still be one hell of an achievement. We would undoubtedly feel aggrieved somewhat, but I don't see how it would be "Scandalous," after all, nothing is guaranteed.
  16. There's no denying the GOT had some memorable lines, Sansa to Baelish, "No need to seize the last word, Lord Baelish. I'll assume it was something clever".
  17. And so the curtain draws on Shogun. It will live long in the memory. As near to visual poetry as you can get.
  18. You know when it's a really good show because you can't even skip the intro. Such is Shogun.
  19. Just finished the penultimate episode of Shogun. A shame I've only got tea, something stronger would have been more adequate. What a series.
