  1. I hate the captain chip for this reason. You should never be in a situation where you don't want your players to do well.
  2. It's not the best look for a professional athletes, however, I'm sure some people at the club will be happy that it's getting City talked about and trending again.
  3. It isn't how much Rice is worth, it's how much Rice is worth to West Ham. After Jack in the summer we should know this better than most.
  4. Surprising that one. He's a solid player, fairly regular for them and going into his prime. Good pick up for Dortmund, especially as they'll likely have a difficult summer and will possibly lose Haaland and Bellingham.
  5. Managed to drop 2.5lbs this week and now down to 13st 1lb so only 1lb off my target weight. Really happy with that. Expecting a slight rebound next week though as out tonight and going to the football on Tuesday. Will try to be sensible but two nights out in 4 days will be tricky. Thinking I might now aim for 12.5 stone as feel it's achievable and will give a cushion for any enviable rebound when I do stop.
  6. A lot of salt and an even bigger amount of sugar.
  7. Speaking from the head not the heart I'd say get rid of them. I did with 90% of what I had and I think since then I've watched only a handful of what I have left. We stream everything nowadays (including all TV/terrestrial channels) and it works absolutely fine. When I do buy films nowadays it's a digital copy (and it's usually a kid's film). You won't have time to watch them when the baby is here and if your misses is anything like mine it'll be another thing for her to get at you with. Also, you will definitely need the space, however much room you think a kid takes up triple it. Maybe have a look how much you get could get by selling them as you'll also need the cash as babies are expensive little things. Having just read the preceding few posts I feel this won't be a popular post so I'll try and make up for it with the below gif, which is what my heart would say.
  8. Sounds interesting but like they've overcomplicated it. Might give it a go later though.
  9. Hope you've not been stewing on this. Clear wind up with my own name was included.
  10. If it becomes pay to play they'll either have to release more than one per day, offer other perks or expect a lot of people (myself included) to stop playing. I suspect it'll instead be very advert heavy.
  11. I quite like the interesting and unusual names. Much more interesting then the boring, everyday ones which are really common like Alex, Ben or Rob etc.
  12. If Banks were sending money out without checking who they were dealing with they'd be in breach of some serious stuff regarding KYC/AML/sanctions legislation.
  13. I was out on the bike today and I didn't do it. I usually ride quite aggressively/defensively (whatever you want to call it) and stick out a metre or so from the curb so that drivers have to wait to pass when it's safe (for me). Moving further out though seems overkill and asking for trouble to me. The update I'm most curious about is the driving and playing music on your phone one where touching it to change track is called out. How is that any different to changing a CD or radio station? My brother in law was hit whilst tout cycling by someone changing a CD so this one has always stuck out to me.
  14. I'm curious if people would pay not to see my nude selfies?
  15. But how do you know who is more vulnerable? It can't be that simple. What if the car driver is feeling overwhelmed or the pedestrian is actually a ninja?
  16. Has Danhausen got his blimp yet?
  17. When everyone has figured out and agreed upon what everyone is meant to be doing in each situation can someone please let me know?

    NFTs

    Agree with what you are saying about NFT's but I'd argue that even the original physical piece of art is over inflated in price and can be easily copied. The only difference between an original and a print is knowing yours was originally done by the famous person. The print still looks exactly the same.
  19. I use LiveFPL but it was the virtual gameweek bit whihh through me. So are the results of the matches just artificially created or randomised then and not based off actual games?
  20. The car park at the kids school has been relaid twice since September and is yet again full of potholes. All caused by the sheer volume of 4x4s that fly through it at crazy speeds. School run is absolute carnage.
  21. He already knew. He was given the Leicester top as a Christmas present as he lives in Hinckley and is mildly interested in them due to their recent successes. But it's all about star players for him and his mates. It's Mbappe now but was Ronaldo a few years ago. I think it's a bit like how superheroes seep into kid's heads. My lad has never seen any Marvel movies or cartoons but is adamant he loves Spiderman. I think the brand type players get talked about in the same way for kids.
  22. The last 30 years have been a big push on the player marketing side. Led by players like Beckham, Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar and now you have Mbappe and Haaland too. They created brands as big as some clubs, bigger in some cases. You can see some of this in how Villa are portrayed in the media now being largely about Gerrard and not the actual club. This and the rise of international fans in new markets like Asia, Africa and America who are more plastic and shift their allegiance. Look how many fans we gained online when Trez or Samatta joined. The games changing and not necessarily for the better.
