  1. if you, have NOW TV, try find 'The night of' with Riz Ahmed (sp?) excellent. on Netflix - Ozark, (3 series) just gets better as it goes.
  2. Dumb all over - Frank Zappa
  3. hardly, you have a low bar i fear (josh/joe shoot me now)
  4. does anyone have any background on him, what sort of player is he? Is this because of the prolonged absense of Baker and the fact that Atkinson was withdrawn before the Cov game? we are a little short of CB options? or just because he wasn't getting game time at Eastleigh.
  5. Hmmmm...50/50 - i was watching his game. later on he started to hide, not making space to recieve the pass ( staying too close to his marker) and generally not really looking like he wanted to be out there. He can see a pass, his through balls are often really effective, but just look how much work Massengo had to do yesterday, he ran his heart out (again) covering for him. for me Bakinson is a luxury player sadly. we thought we had a decent midfield (James/King/Williams) but once again, we don't. they are broken. and it shows. Yesterday we were missing Atkinson/Baker in CD. James/King/Williams in CMF and a decent striker upfront
  6. Any and all losses attributable to City can be laid at Mr Lansdowns feet. He was finance director long before he bought up the shares. This strange idea that somehow we should be grateful for the fact he is bailing us out - for the mistakes HE has made and liabilities HE has created over 20+ years is really odd. If he was the mastermind some people like to portray him as, he would have stabilised this club and we wouldn't be facing such reactive and variable losses. Lets be crystal clear, he is NOT bailing out anyone elses mistakes but his own. I struggle to be grateful for that. I appreciate having a decent-ish stadium, but his inability to share power has left us with some consistently terrible choices at managerial level, and a lack of a board to scrutinise and hold some of his decisions to account has hurt us in the long term. to appoint your son as CEO or whatever phoney position he has, is a big red flag surely. we have seen the same cycles of 'go for it/ tighten the belt' over and over, rather than an attempt at more sustained and managable growth (Brentford etc). So speaking as a 'keyboard idiot' i will continue to spout (or even sprout) my opinions. C'est la guerre.
  7. did i miss the news on baker, how long is he out for?
  8. BBC too keen to award WBA a second goal. ha! got a notification then a correction

  11. just 10?? thats a dangerously low bar...
  12. This is a really good point. I always planned to retire as early as possible, but when the reality of the situation hit home - i started to realise that a slow descent into retirement would be a better route. So working a 4 day week for a while, then 3, then look to give it up. (I will add i run my own company, so have the luxury of that choice) that period of 'ramp down' would let me settle into a different routine and get used to having more time. Getting my head around what retirment actually meant put me out of kilter for a good year or so, i've always worked for myself, so always had that background worry about keeping going, but ironically when faced with that chance to stop, i re evaluated just what my work meant in terms of keeping me going. (and definately pay for some advice - it seems painful to have to cough up, but it makes your decision making much clearer. a good advisor will map out excatly what your options are and how they change over a projected retirment timeline.)
