I really believe Potter would be a great fit for England.

Going to get to the semi-finals and then lose tepidly 2-0 to Portugal or something. Then hopefully signs for Manchester United.

And that's being optimistic. It's all the ridiculous hype, leading up to these games, that is so annoying.

3 years ago one couldn't imagine that Barkley would be playing for us in the Champions League and not he who shall not be named

GREALISH!!!! How hard is that? And I would love him to come back too.

Wilder versus Chisora, what a wonderful thought. What’s the record for a pay for view in this country?

It beggars belief. The heavyweight division has some really poor "Athletes." Reminiscent of Bouncers past their sell by date. 

That Wilder/Zang fight was as bad as it gets. Honestly, I've seen better fights at the back gate of a primary school. 

Apparently, Aaron Danks is in line to join Kompany at Bayern. 

Stranger Things season 4. The young male, lab technician, dressed all in white looks like the offspring of John Boy Walton. 

Stranger Things season 4, I enjoyed the little twist on the "Devil" line from Usual Suspects.

Couldn’t agree more. Essential television

That scene there, deserves to be in another thread.

Thought he died years ago, must be about 110 

Still going, and still struggling to say "Roberto," as in Duran.

The comment from Colin Hart that Fury is in decline. Honestly, it's hardly a pearl of wisdom, the  man is 36yrs old, of course he is "In Decline".

We’ll never sell Watkins. His output’s, consistency and availability are incredible. We’d need to buy two players to replace him. I suspect that him and Martinez are the two untouchables in our squad.

It's naive to say we'll never sell players. If there's a clause in their contracts there's not much you can do to stop them leaving, especially if the player wants to leave.

The North stand used to have a walk under tunnel if I recall. It’s where the St John’s ambulance people were when we pretended to have sprained ankles out of the Holte to walk past the away fans and clock what they had @sheepyvillian knows what I am on about 

I'm saying nothing till I've seen my "Brief".

still can't wrap my head around the fact that it's happening.

It's an "Exhibition" fight.  It's absolutely meaningless, unless you're an idiot who wants to pay money to watch such nonsense. And, I'm guessing there's going to be plenty of idiots interested. 

I wouldn't even watch the highlights.

In those games he looked the business....his movement and reading was superb.....maybe his age, puts a damper on it....but looks good.

Players like him, off the mainstream, could be the answer.

One swallow and all that. As good as he was, as bad as our defending was.

The Premier League is a whole different ball game - pun unintended -.

No doubt, 18-0 and becoming undisputed is something very very special. 

But time to hang them up I feel.

Absolutely!! Where to go??

I know one thing. That Bam Bam/ Estrada fight has the making of a classic. 

Just now, Avfc96 said:

Since he became undisputed 3 years ago, he's fought 3 times and lost 3 times (twice officially).

His lifestyle has caught up with him, too much boozing etc.

Takes nothing away from what he's achieved. A absolute certainty for the Hall of Fame.

What a fight. Catterall just for me, but so close.

Really difficult to land flush on Catterall with his Mayweather type defence. 

Jack won that with the more eye - catching work. Taylor has definitely lost something from what he once was. And, I still don't see Catterall getting anywhere near the achievements of Taylor. 

The sheer delight of the players and fans proves that nothing beats, for sheer excitement, winning trophies.

Can't wait for Labout to get in, an start the "we can't do this, can't do that, because of the mess the Tories have left us in."

An the quote that tories voters are scum @DCJonah I reckon you'd be shocked how much the rich still want them in. My pal (a property developer), will still vote Conservative, as well as most of his pals, although admitted dont think Rishi is up to much.

Its the working class Tories who elect them to Government. The Alf Garnett's of this Country.

Blimey even John Redwood has had enough and is going back to planet Vulcan rather than standing again. Suprised IDS still wants to carry on when he will almost certainly lose.

John Redwood!!! How could I forget that strange looking visage.

No doubt. P.T. Barnum is proven right every damn day

Nonetheless, one can’t fault a guy for hoping for Paul’’s permanent demise

I'm sure you mean that in jest. For no matter one's dislike of a person, it is quite something else to actually wish them harm in such a way.

I still hope he has enough left to end Jake Paul

It's an "Exhibition". It won't be much different from the Roy Jones exhibition. Tyson is a shadow of what he once was. As for JP, his choice of opponent tells you all you need to know. How anyone would pay for that nonsense is beyond my comprehension.
