Crnac's header that went over is mentioned. Live it looked a glaring miss and the commentators on Sky repeated it, but I think it was Doyle in-front of him who glanced it taking it off the top of his forehead. Not sure he could have done any better really, he had no time to adjust.

There are a number of teams that are under-performing at the moment that will eventually get some momentum. If anything Ipsquit are over-performing and still only have 4 points. Wolves/Palace/Everton/West Ham will all put a run together at some stage and leave them in the bottom 3 with the other two promoted teams. As others have mentioned, the responsibility to keep them up is on a couple of decent young players in Delap & Clarke who if injured for a few games are really going to nullify their minimal goal threat. Morsy and Phillips are going to get a red at some point too. Their keeper is going to gift a few goals with his woeful distribution too. All in all they might as well call it a day and we'll see them next season (unless we get promoted).

A counter to binary thinking and that particular user's bias. At a base human level is it easier to argue: That people should have a safe place to live and be able to exist with the basics required for existence - as a bare minimum - regardless of where they were born Those born into money and privilege should be able to keep and accrue further wealth fraudulently. Those like, as an example, Bernie Eccleston whose net worth is $2.4b - still attempted to avoid paying tax to HMRC on £400m of overseas assets. So yeah. There's a massive class imbalance in this country. And I do believe the burden of responsibility is not weighted on the side of immigration. Until we all have £400m of overseas assets or Bernie Eccleston, or anyone like him, has none, there always will be a bigger problem than people looking for the basics of life in a safer country. It's quite farcical to think otherwise.

I think the best way to tackle poverty with minimum admin is by universal income, but there’s no way you can do that without first having tighter control on tax avoidance and ever increasing number of billionaires holding the country's wealth. You're looking in the wrong direction.

One of my go-to one liners, 'I'm not afraid of sausages, but I do fear the wurst'. I've never seen fast-food in renal failure before but that image suggests it's possible.

Always knew they were a bunch of melts https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgkyl44k7v8o

Possibly the one that borders Britannia Road, if at all. It's not the Fountain.

It would be one hell of a random way to find a club, train in one of their local green spaces hoping to be spotted. Perhaps we'll see Dwight Gayle playing keepy uppy in Waterloo Park. Fun idea though.

Yeah watching the highlights of them on MOTD really did bring back memories of our recent forays in the PL. Ramsdale appeared to make the decision that it wasn't working and played long but reverted after halftime - as the pundits assumed he was told not to. A bit like knowing you're defending against Harry Kane, if the ball is never going over your head you can afford to get tight and advance 10-15 yards. They'll still beat Ipsquit though.

I get why you're 'Cambridge' canary now, it's where you studied politics, tell me I'm right.

With a dash of Pirlo.

Interesting assessment of Billy Gee https://footballtalentscout.net/home/billy-gee-scouting-report-by-nene-afadzinu/

Does Phil Foden look too lightweight? Don't agree that he looks to take too much time on the ball, see his assist for exhibit A. He looks an excellent prospect and more than capable of being a top level champs player this season with a small amount of acclimatisation. Great news he could be available.

A bit of chaos in last night's performance and some pretty awful finishing but so many positives with free-flowing passing football, using the ball and tight triangles to escape the press, plus a solid defensive shape. I've never been so positive after a 4-0 defeat. Smith and Wagner teams were like table football players by comparison, only ever playing the way they faced. Mateta, Eze, Geuhi, Henderson, swapped like for like for Long, Hanley, Onel, Crnac (although both Onel and Crnac were good) and we would have won 4-0, or more. Happy clapper status engaged.

Rowing (as in, with oars) isn't fun but it is marketed as being a right lark. 45mins of rowing a small boat on a windy Coniston was surprisingly hard on my usually dependable thighs and left me shaking like a defacating dog when back on terra firma. Another one of life's apparent joys that have escaped my brain's pleasure centre, along with crazy golf and roller skating.
