Lads is Mings actually a rocket polisher in real life? I’m sad to hear that, he seemed very decent.

Well @Newry_Villan don’t leave us hanging how did it go?

At £20m nearly half the league would want him. The likes of Forest and even Brighton would snap at that price.

Chap has just got double figures in the Premier League. Fifteen million pounds gets you one-third of an Anthony Gordon these days.

Take my dick away, and I’m absolutely useless in bed.

I’ve done DUB-BHX plenty of times so Belfast will be similar. Train to New Street, then a small a change to Witton. It’s cheap and cheerful and a good experience for a young land to see public transport in a different surrounding. Twelve o’clock landing is fine, you’ll be at VP before 1:30. You get to see St Andrew’s on the train, and you can stop in Witton Tesco for a sandwich before the match. It’s a 5 min walk from the train to the North Stand. Stadium only opens about two hours before kick off so don’t get in tooooo early. Do a lap around the stadium (Holte is opposite North) and plan on spending 30 mins in the club shop (also North).

Keith Wyness and the HMRC winding up order in 2018.

This except the true faith is played in Croke Park.

Alliance are officially neutral on the matter, I believe. Neither nationalist nor unionist, and thus the BBC tweet was technically correct (albeit because of how it was worded.) Of course, in reality Alliance are a gateway drug to the actually sensible approach

Tangential to the Brexit thread, but it’s interesting how the long-run effect of leaving the customs union (and thus putting the DUP in an impossible position with regard to the Northern Ireland Protocol) continue to play out.

Seconded. Thanks to all you nerds sharing military technicalities with us. Much appreciated.

IF we get Europe, can you imagine the impact Coutinho’s through balls will have on Cameron Archer? He’ll flourish.

And the panel gave the decisions exactly zero mentions.

This drives me mad. The UK has leverage with members of the EU but not with the EU itself. The Commission and the Parliament would be absolutely dead set against anything like that. Not happening in EU colours. Now it might happen that many members of the EU sit down with the U.K. on defence. Most are already in NATO for example. But, nope, the Commission and the Parliament are never doing anything military behind closed doors.

Same age as Duncan Ferguson at this stage.

He’s worth £25m in yesterday’s money. In today’s terms he is a £40m player imho. Nathan Collins is what you get for £25m in today’s money.

Awful seeing so many peaceful protestors arrested by the police. Such an undemocratic thing to do on the day of the coronation.

Yeah if Mings keeps his volley down then it’s a different feeling. We were both unlucky and not very good at the same time.

No but he’s better than Buendia when he gets it in the box. Whether he gets it in the box or not without Buendia on the field is another debate.

Interesting that Carlos replaced Young today, pushing Ezri out to right back. That could be a sign on our transfer targets this summer if the strategy is to use Cash and Konsa as right backs. It could fit with Emery’s philosophy of having a conservative RB if Moreno is pushed up and a more attacking WB (Cash) otherwise.

We lack a clinical edge. Bailey, Traore, and Buendia were all off the pace and arguably have been off the pace all season — we have been very reliant on Ollie. Referee was poor, and we deserved more. Bye bye Europe, I think.

Fifteen minutes to go against Wolves, 1-0 down, we could really use someone like Archer.

McGinnho.

Sorry, but this is one of the funniest things I have ever read.

Same way bookies set odds?
