  1. Past hour
  2. Hazel Irvine could cope with it pretty easily or Michelle Owen, Damien Johnson.
  3. Today
  4. Viewing figures for Football Focus dropped when Scott took over. I find her voice/accent irritating and I suspect I'm not the only one. I've heard lots of moans about Lineker and his salary but he's extremely good at his job and anyone else will be a downgrade.
  5. and one for the bindippers of the board...
  6. One for Midlands and a few others on here! Obviously city related as no finer place to grab an ale or two in the UK
  7. Hilarious. You’ve been told your crusade has no value by all and sundry, you’ve exhausted the process and you still don’t learn. 🤷🏻‍♂️
  8. Yeah but if a banana is orange is it still a banana or an orange?
  9. Venom 3 or smile 2 is the options for this weekend. Unfortunately it's not my turn to choose so it'll end up being venom, the missus always moans that I go for the horror option 🤣 Absolutely can't wait for gladiator 2.
  10. Interested to know what improvements in fan engagement people would like to see. What should be done that isn’t being done? I’m all for fan involvement, and have a few ideas, but I suspect many of us primarily care about having a successful team, ‘the grass below, above the vaulted sky’.
  11. Yesterday
  12. To be fair to Connor we all have had learning curves. I wish though, similar to the football club too, that learners could sometimes listen a little more, recognise more speedily that their proposed solutions have gone a little awry and be prepared to tweak promptly.
  13. We have a problem. This site has a history that is not understood by the boy moderating it. He is creating a problem by unnecessarily highlighting something that was lost on the majority but made an issue by the very need to micromanaging it. It happens. The best response is to learn and retreat.
  14. I am struggling to understand the problem that some people are having with the non-football posts. They are mostly well labelled and if you are not interested then don't click on them! If this forum were to be restricted to solely NCFC threads then it would lose much of its attraction to me. Dare I say that threads debating McLean and Long are becoming slightly boring? 😴
  15. Just tonight. Little Hoglet feeding .
  16. Just back from it. Grant exceptional in a very against type role, the other leads solid, let down by a clichéd ending.
  17. My Top 5 movies of all time 1 Fight Club 2 Shawshank Redemption 3 Lawrence of Arabia 4 Se7en 5 The Good, the Bad & the Ugly
  18. Just seen this for the first time and I haven't read much of this thread, but please make it stop. The non football section was perfect as it kept all that rubbish contained somewhere that I could avoid, now we have movies and music etc to wade through. Either restore the status quo and keep it elsewhere or ban it entirely.
  19. It was supposed to be the answer to the problems of bickering on here, but the moderating there was a bit too draconian. Shows that getting the balance of moderating right is difficult!
  20. If he does mean him, then he's been posting regularly under a different username since the summer. It isn't that hard to spot if you look closely enough.
  21. Agree on both counts. I'd like it to be Murray, but expect it to be Scott. I'd love to see the social media meltdown if the gig goes to a black woman, providing of course that it isn't Eni Aluko.
  22. The solution to this is incredibly simple-I wonder who will think of it first-after me. Two equally simple solutions actually.
  23. Remember taking a very attractive girl on a first date to see Ghost with Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze at the ABC in about early 1990s . And at a particularly emotional point a wag shouts out “ go on mate , give her one “ . I found that bloody hilarious, said very attractive girl didn’t. She was so annoyed and stated I didn’t have a romantic bone in my body and was everything she didn’t like in men. We got married a few years later .
  24. My list is for older films. I don't think I've seen a really good film in the last ten years. Recent films supposed to be good turned out to be very poor. 2017 Dunkirk probably the worst film I've ever seen - so much great cinematography and potential ruined by a trashy pathetic pseudo plot on top of the real interest. 2021 Operation Mincemeat the same....although the musical on in London atm is brilliant. Beginning to think the art of telling a great story is lost behind ridiculously poor screenplays, over reliance on spectacle than substance, with CGI that makes what could be great films films look more like cartoons. My top 5 films that I'll look at again and again - 1. Stardust 2. A Knight's Tale 3. Enemy at the Gates 4. A Matter of Life and Death 5. Where Eagles Dare
  25. Apocalypto is a fantastic movie. Gladiator - a boxing movie from the 1980s with Robert Loggia is a great watch (not the Russell Crowe Roman epic, although that's also very enjoyable) Top Secret with Val Kilmer is a great laugh if you like the Airplane & Naked Gun style of humour ( which I certainly do!) Someone above already mentioned The Taking of Pelham 123 with Robert Shaw & Walter Matthau - a superb movie Sing Street from over here in Ireland is a very enjoyable romp with plenty of music - and if you're lucky enough to have never seen The Commitments yet, I highly recommend. And Intermission is another great watch from these shores. The Man Who Would Be King with Michael Caine & Sean Connery is great fun, if a touch too long, but well worth it. Gallipoli with a young Mel Gibson is very memorable and of course the original Mad Max. L.A. Confidential is a well-crafted piece of cinema, but you need to use your brain! The Princess Bride is a unique and wonderful movie which does a very decent job of being loyal to the book. Die Lebens des Anderens is a masterful piece of cinema about the Stasi in East Germany and Goodbye Lenin is also well worth a watch about the same period. The Third Man with Orson Welles is brilliant. And there's of course Dr Strangelove. I think I'd better stop now, I've things to do!
  26. We already have it, but some can’t get over the fact that Morty is involved
  27. Unexpected NCFC link at 2:55: You knows it clart. Safe.
