  1. And just like that we should be 2-0’up - but didn’t convert either chance.
  2. Ahem, well done Mr. Mayfield, and well done to the Raiders for your usual stupidity in giving him the chance to do what he did with that sack negating 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
  3. Every now and again I find myself agreeing with you RTB.
  4. Hard to argue against that, but then again we do have a history with a late round pick called Joe Montana - of course he wasn’t the very last pick. And also a big NO to now free agent Mayfield.
  5. Refusing to take on the full back has nothing to do with mixing it up. Holding onto the ball in the opposition half may indeed make sense, but the constant passing back to the goalkeeper is inviting a very costly mistake.
  6. So Southgate actually told the team to stop turning back inside every time the ball got to the wing, and then pass back to the keeper? Taking on the defender, cutting back across the face of the goal unlocks defaces, Holland showed that yesterday, England did today. But I'd give Southgate some credit for it if we didn't spend 30 minutes prior, doing the opposite of what we should be doing. (p.s Dean Smith take notice.... we've seen way too much fear of attacking a full back this season)
  7. Absolutely amazing what happens when you run at a defiance....
  8. Wow, Pickford just bailed us out big time there. What on earth was Saka thinking?
  9. Suicidal defending today (you do need to mark the other team’s players) but other than that Mrs. Lincoln I thought they were pretty good.
  10. My fault.Two independent press clippings. But I’m sure if asked they would say it should be 5%
  11. Keep it going Joe ! Of course, as soon as Kevin McCarthy can arrange it the Republicans in the House will do everything in their power to wreck the economy because its the only way they can get reelected... for some reason voters trust them more on that issue. (just like UK and Tories)
  12. IMO he's just trying to get one person out of a jury of 12 not to convict him.
  13. IMO Gilmour was brought in to replace Buendia, nothing more nothing less. And it turned out he was no Buendia, unfortunately for both of us.
  14. He’ll totally miss the point by rolling out the “pleased to keep a clean sheet … BS
  15. And he isn't happy about that 🤣
  16. I wonder how many minutes will be added on for this game. No more than 2 hopefully 😎
  17. While we are at it there is nothing and at the same time everything wrong with the way the US elects members to its second chamber. The good bits - one third are up for re-election every 2 years. This has the effect of maintaining stability. Each region has two members so you can have representation from just one or both parties in that region. Elections are held at the same time as first chamber elections so the turnout is very good. The bad bits - massive amounts of undisclosed money are spent which leads to suspicions of fraud and corruption. The size of each region is not controlled and less populated regions get the same representation as larger ones, e.g. regions as big as a major European country have the same representation as regions no bigger than a medium sized City. Other downsides are self-inflicted. Under internal “rules” no legislation can pass without an almost 2/3 majority (except finance bills) which means that nothing except finance bills can pass - other than naming Post Offices. 😉
  18. One would hope that the likes of Farage (Trump, Boris, Truss) have lost all credibility
  19. No Muslims or Jews or anyone involved in impeaching then President Trump allowed on Republican-led House committees. It's revenge for Nancy Pelosi refusing to allow Jim Jordan to sit on the Jan 06 Committee - as Jim Jordan was a likely witness. Nothing more anti-American than discriminating on race or religion because that race or religion isn't American enough Kevin. But you know that don't you?
