    Reliable as ever.

    Had a feeling Dortmund might get past PGS. I hope they do, would hate to see another "Plastic Team'" win it again.

    My ex Partner was always on to me to give it a go, but you know how it is, the more someone tells you to watch the less you want to. Started it the other day, and I can understand the appeal.

    I think it was the first time RD did straight comedy. I know he did King of Comedy but that was rather dark, whereas, MR was funny all the way through.

    The wierd thing about Stranger Things is, the first season actually looks like it was made in the 80s. It has that ET kind of atmosphere.

    Common sense really. I think most of us would rather he stay.

    That doesn't count as speculation, just "Bollocks".

    Regarding The Bear. Richie, that's spot - on how a "Manic Depressive" behaves.

    Having reached episode 6, S-1 of The Bear, I was quite surprised to see Jon Bernthal appear. Always admired his ability to bring a certain amount of honesty to the characters he plays.

    I would be happy for JJ to stay, but someone has to go to generate funds. JJ seems like the only one, of the possibiles, who could demand a hefty fee. Who would you choose?

    I know it's had 5 seasons but I have decided to watch Stranger Things. One thing that took me by surprise was how terribly Mathew Modine has aged.

    Some would differ from that opinion. Myself, I have a soft spot for "Our Own" but as sad as I would be to see him go, Rodgers would provide the sliver lining.

    This Town. It's supposed to be set in the early 80s. The only place you could get Heroin from in 80s Birmingham was the Hobmoor pub in South Yardley and maybe a few hippies in Moseley. In contrast to today it was virtually non - existent. Honestly, the writing on this show is as cringeworthy as it gets.

    Carlos, Cash, Tim, Duran (sadly) and probably a player that will cause some consternation amongst us at VT, whoever that may be, but if I was pushed to guess, maybe JJ.

    The fact that Chelsea looked a lot more dangerous in the 2nd half than they did in the first, I think, adds weight to my opinion. You're right, they are just opinions.

    But for all their possession in that first - half, aside from hitting the post, they never really looked like scoring. We were disciplined in our defensive organisation. Not so in the second - half. The confidence had evaporated and we lost our structure. I honestly don't believe that would have been the case has Emi not departed.
  17. sheepyvillian
    Agreed. Of all the clubs, depresses me just to say "Sheffield United"!
  18. sheepyvillian
    NO!!!!

    I recently re - watched season 4, and enjoyed more than I did the first time. I really don't think there's been a poor season, just some a lot better than others. For me, all seasons are extremely watchable.

    Just reading an article about a film with Matt Damon and Casey Affleck. A heist movie apparently, in their words, "Influenced by Midnight Run and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I loved Midnight Run, a proper 80s flick.very funny in it's day.

    I get the feeling it will be kind of staged. A kind of wrestling outlook. It certainly doesn't interest me in the least.
  22. sheepyvillian
    That's right, we didn't do in the second - half what we did in the first. For me, that was a result of being without the calming presence of our keeper.
  23. sheepyvillian
    I have given my opinion. Offensively, the contrast from the first - half to the second - half was startling. We didn't have the same self - belief in the second - half, hence the lack of cohesion. We allowed ourselves to become over defensive, and imo, that was a consequence of losing our captain and keeper. Plenty of teams have had less that 30 per cent of the possession and still managed to get the victory. It just requires defensive discipline and confidence. Unfortunately, we didn't have those qualities in the second - half, hence the result. That's just my take on the game as I saw it, nothing more.
  24. sheepyvillian
    It's an exhibition fight. It's money orientated, nothing more. Saying that, it would be hilarious if Tyson chinned the muggy word removed.
  25. sheepyvillian
    But there have been countless games where we have surrendered possession and still managed the game to our advantage. Spurs away, Arsenal at home and away, in the first - half. In that first - half against Chelsea, every time we hit them on the counter we looked like we would score. However, that dangerous weapon was almost non - existent in the second - half. We became fixated on trying not to concede, to the point where we forgot about trying to get a third goal. We allowed ourselves to become overwhelmed and Chelsea sensed the fear and panic that consumed our players. Like I said, even the crowd sensed the change in our approach, and sadly, the inevitable happened. Without confidence there's no cohesion, instead of asserting ourselves, we kind of crossed our fingers and just hoped we didn't concede. I really don't think that would have happened had Emi not been replaced. He's the captain for a reason, he brings that assured presence, that sadly, Olsen doesn't.
