 I tend to hold the phone to my ear and thereby the mouthpiece is actually near my mouth, obliviating the need to do a "Dom Joly".

I'm talking about those people who either talk into a phone held in front of them on speaker or have a headset and look like they are babbling to themselves. 

Apparently every call has to be a video call and if your unfortunate enough to look at them  then it's "What you looking at, **** off!"

Compare the Bannan card that was overturned and this Saville one and it leaves me scratching my head on the rationale there.

Saville was definitely not dangerous and definitely not a clear goalscoring opportunity.

Bonus for us that he is missing though I guess.

Is it the VAR panel on the appeals hence the inconsistancy?

Not our new invester then?

Lois Diony was spotted at the Salthouse Harbour Hotel earlier today.  

Was he talking to Liam Walsh and Ryan Kent? 

Coming for a week - end of Feb/beginning of March and looking at these. There are a couple in Bedminster and others in Clifton, Hotwells etc. Preferably with parking? Have any you got any knowledge or experiences of staying with Airbnb? Thanks!

You could hear him hesitate on the word 'sucked', but there was no saving it 

On a more serious note, they're a bit of a wounded animal at the moment. Many will be expecting us to put the nail in Rooney's coffin but wounded animals are often dangerous, we'll need to be right up for a fight on Friday.

Many were expecting them to be relegated a few years ago and then they played us!

Similar to that Norwich goal. I think his biggest issue remains concentration (just occasionally) which used to be his big issue (regularly). That said most of the time now he looks like a Rolls Royce.

If every defender was perfect there would be alot more nil/nil draws?

At least that's what it will feel like when Rob A and McCrorie are available. 

I think that they will give Manning to play a 3 - 5 - 2 with a more expansive right wing back and Dickie playing on his more natural right side. 

Whether there will be further additions is still to be seen, but the rumour mill is in full flow as usual.

Any "inside " knowledge @Port Said Red?

Looking at todays fixtures any predictions where we could be in the table tonight?

Just beaten Man Utd so they should be equal to us!

Wonder if the bubble could be about to burst..

This was us after Wolves?

Who's doing the pre match show?

I'm making sure that I'm not stood in front of the chef!

On the radio when someone is asked for their experience.

Can you "Paint me a picture?" 

Can you tell us about "the journey you have taken?"

I always say the closest these bloody things have ever been to off road is parking on the pavement outside a school.

Mostly for a half mile journey,  can't children walk any more?

Just checked but a club actively turning down bids- Brennan Johnson £10m summer 2021, £18m January 2022 yet attributing attributing to Covid-19 is a huge EFL failure.

Hard pressed clubs actually should lodge a complaint about them and Stoke IMO. I still have my doubts as to whether we got equal and equitable treatment in those years.

Did they get away with it as they were heading for the PL and would Derby have escaped their delayed punishment if they had gone up?

Surely that is more on Marinakis? I stand to be corrected though.

West Ham have a Sporting Director or similar- him and Moyes had different views on transfer activity in summer, dunno what the structure at Crystal Palace is like.

I note that Cooper at Nottingham Forest was listed as Head Coach, not Manager.

Must have been nice for him in the promotion season to at least have the choice of all those players. How he would have coped if they hadn't got promotion is another speculation. 

Could any of these teams afford another 25 players in January?
