  1. Its a good job that we dont have more derby games or we'd have to settle for a point more often. Blues are a relegation standard team.
  2. Hard earned point? We're not trying to avoid relegation are we. We need two points a game of which we are five points behin at this stage. The game todays fixture equivalent in the premier league would have been Liverpool or Arsenal v Swansea or Bournemouth roughly speaking. Couldnt see them being happy with a point. The two points lost could see us miss out on automatic promotion come the end of the season.
  3. I dont understand the mentality of those saying that today was on OK/acceptable result. On that basis, a point at Preston will be fine then too as we are away and they are a decent side? Oh look, we're outside the playoffs again.
  4. Because to go up automatically you have to win the majority of your games. Today we were playing one of the worst teams in the league. Its a bad result unless your aim for the season is to be in and around the playoffs.
  5. Sorry, thats 700 a month for three days per week. Bit its still crazy. Absolutely zero incentive for my missus to go back to work. Can understand why people dont bother.
  6. The cost of childcare is simply insane. We've been quoted £700 for three days per week.
  7. Failing to replace your Belgian striker who scores half your goals.

    Pubs

    Drinking before the game. Isnt that what the early kick off is designed to prevent? Limpid you animal!
  9. Why is Milwall v Blues being played on a Saturday evening? Just seems stupid to me. Similarly to last Saturday us at Wolves.
  10. When will Christmas start to be phased out? 200 years from now? 500 years? Hardly anyone I know has a clue what Christmas is anymore, in its truest sense, and yet the ‘celebration’ of it is getting more and more grotesque/extreme with time. I went to church Sunday and Wednesday every week as a child, and prayed every day, my parents still go occasionally. I probably wouldn't class myself as a Christian now, I'm not sure. I love Christmas. But I love the excuse to binge eat and drink for days on end, I love the presents for the children, I love the relaxed attitude to work for a complete month where our office focuses on Secret Santa, parties, games etc (and I love that that’s accepted), I love the time off. But my actions/thoughts make absolutely zero reference to the subject/topic in hand at any point across the period; it’s truly bizarre. I refer to the phasing out of Christmas as presumably there are fewer and fewer practising Christians in the UK each year (or even those that identify with a religion), while smaller religions such as Islam will grow, and therefore the need for weeks off work, lavish parties etc will be no longer necessary? Or is it too important to the economy and will be protected?
  11. Semi serious point/question - can you drink alcohol while you're driving, providing that you're not over the drink drive limit?
  12. Ye, I just feel that as a driver I've missed the clarity on this somewhere. People I speak to have different views on it. You're seeing these drive-thru Costas and Starbucks popping up everywhere now which only encourages drinking at the wheel?
  13. Are you allowed to eat/drink while you're driving?
  14. I think that psychologically it tricks me into thinking that im not eating a packet of crisps as im only eating 3 or 4 crisps at a time. But if i do that 10 to 15 times, ive probably eaten 2 to 3 bags of crisps. The idea of the crisps being accesible with the lid is also a factor. You know where you are with a bag of crisps. Youre either eating or not. Pringles is like an ongoing bag of crisps. I dont usually swear but theyre pringle bastsrds.
  15. BBQ pringles!! Literally the only thing in the world that i cant resist and the missus has gone out and bought some today. Needless to say that in the half hour or so since being home ive dashed half the box down my neck.
  16. How does it work in terms of people being “mad/mentally ill/sick” when committing these acts? What if they’re not? Or is it that by attempting to kill 1000 strangers, you’re mad by definition?
  17. Hangover Sundays spent shaking on the sofa, eating junk food, watching Bond films and dreading Monday.
  18. I particularly cant stand this mind the gap nonsense on social media.
  19. Cant see Bolton winning. Other than Palace at Man U, the bookies have Bolton down as the least likely team to win in the country today. I'll go 2 - 0 the Villa. I know what you mean about capping hope though. Surely after recents results we are due a bad run.
  20. Ye that too. It just doesnt seem fair that 20% of her awake day is spent on trying to look presentable for that day. My getting ready probably accounts for 1-2% of my day.
  21. The amount of time that women take to get ready. Or more specifically my missus. Im more pissed off for women that such a chunk of their life is focussed on getting ready to leave the house. Will literally be years of my other halfs life that she'll spend applying make up.
  22. We should be beating them because we have spent 5 times as much money as Forest. The same reason Man City beat their equivalents 4 or 5 nil week in week out.
  23. I wasnt aware of the plans with York. Such a shame, a ground full of character and a top away end. Open terrace, stood in the rain, passing around a hip flask. Cant beat non-league.
