  1. I watched it last night, and I'd say it was a bit brutal for a five year old! Maybe that's just me, but that was a really murdery Bond film, a far cry from old school Bond. Not the topic, but I thought it was very very average.
  2. That's what my mum and step dad both say they did. It seems to me that someone who's bought into the Tory narrative hook and line won't ever vote Labour, but they are for some mystical reason OK with voting green. It's almost as if they have no clue what they're doing.
  3. It's a good story, but I don't think there's any comparison to running a football team.
  4. It's a glitch. We're all in a computer program.
  5. He's done half of it. He's definitely done well with that half though. From the reviews and so on I half imagined he had done the whole book, so I was surprised it was just part 1/2.
  6. Of the brexiters I know not a single one of them voted for this reason. Your statement is a massive stretch. Most people didn't know what they were voting for anyway.
  7. They'll go for a big name surely.
  8. He's a great defender and we should definitely sign him.
  9. Five years ago we were a mess that almost went into administration in the Championship, propped up by loans from Premier League teams, and they were an actual, functional Premier League team. Our spend includes about £65 million on the loan players, or replacing the loan players, from our promotion season. They've built from a much more solid place (they were a good Championship team for a while) and have been able to build sensibly. We had a few years of bored or mad-charlatan owners almost crippling us, and had to spend a little quicker all at once. Both teams appear to have invested solidly over the last period, but most comparisons work in Smith's favour if you consider the context.
  10. I think he's been really good in the previous few games. He's a great defender and he'd be a good signing.

    Seems like Hause ran away from goal looking for a shorter ball. I feel it might have been a plan, and more complicated than it seems.
  12. To be really fair our problems last year began after our covid break when Grealish was still playing. With Grealish we were pretty shit then. That suggests covid was a bigger problem than we realised.
  13. His all round play is so good. What an amazing header to set Cash free.
  14. I like them both, but I really rate Tuanzebe. I think he's been a bit of an unsung hero these last two games. I'm not against the idea though. Hause has a lot of good qualities, but on the ball Tuanzebe is on another level I think. But I more meant that Smith might use it as an opportunity to get some others involved. But I might be wrong.
  15. We have no Axel, so a change in formation may be about to happen.
  16. There's a good feeling around the club with the youth and the squad seeming united. It's pleasing to see, and it's proven in good performances like that. That's all on Smith.
  17. I was in full doom mode, but I wasn't aiming it at Smith. I felt we had been weakened significantly as a result of the summer events, including clubs playing games with us knowing we had extra money, and that eventually affecting our recruitment. Again, it was never aimed at Smith. I don't think I was the only one like that either. The last two games have been a massive surprise for me, and the big surprises recruitment/non-recruitment have been Tuanzebe, Ramsey and the nouse of Ings for me. Those three have really helped broaden the skills and balance within the team. It's great and exciting. It's too early to say how the season is going to go, but considering we were average without Grealish last year (and perhaps more critically post covid, which might explain a lot) it's been great to see. One way or another it's a new era now.
