Are you blind? I can see it and I'm south of London
I'm in the countryside too... nothing... lovely night though...
if you have an SLR, point it at the plough and do a 20 sec exposure. Cant miss it.

I don't.. just my eyes...

Going to bed now... maybe tomorrow I'll get lucky...

Grandpa wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2024 10:24 am Why not remove marks full stop?

Do we really need them?

Will bombs in the 22 increase any more than already?
It's to discourage a game of force-back.

And do you think it works?

Is it known who this Premier League boss is? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68985701 A Premier League boss has been granted a High Court anonymity order in a civil case against him for allegedly sexually abusing a 15-year-old girl. 7 of 20 EPL clubs have had players or bosses investigated by the pol...

I was speaking to a boomer and an American, you have to meet them where they are. I want to know how that thigh is? (Can't be bothered searching for the original leg thread) Do you have your jaunty mcjaunt walk back yet? I am well on the path to full mobility. Realized recently that I have largely ...

You sound like my mates Paul and John in the early 60s. Used to drive us mad the racket next door.

Blues to win... home stadium. And a point to prove.

Grandpa

Yeah it would be something like that. Props weren't unnaturally big then. Most props back then were smaller than hookers now days. I remember standing next to Fitzy and Drake I think it was in 1987... they were my height... though wider... not that big... they'd never make the front row these days....

Last 2 games in Bundesliga are away to Bochum (14th of 18 and fighting relegation) and then home to Augsburg (9th placed with very slim chance of making playoffs - which by last game will probably be zero). Then Euro final and finally German Cup final v lower division team. He better not be Man Utd...

Should change the thread title to... Let's discuss Lily James (the hottie)

How can you see only 15 scrums in a game, and say “we’re living in a great rugby era, and want to get that number down even lower”? I’d love to see stats for ball-in-play after a scrum (either team, ie tighthead and loosehead count equal) and for number of resets. Promote the refs who score best on...

The ball must be played after the maul has been stopped once, not twice.

EDITED.

Shame it's only a trial...

Grandpa

Not sure I like the option of removing the scrum option from a free kick. Sounds like a way of avoiding the real issue - better reffing of the scrum. On the topic, I saw this posted https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GNJyTrXX0AAsYMG?format=jpg&name=900x900 Incredible how much the game has changed in the 3...

In my experience, people don't seem to do much work from home, They spend a lot of time getting under my f**king feet when I'm trying to work On their house. It's no different to when you have tradies working in the office - you NEVER leave them to their own devices. We know you're not to be truste...

Tuchel bottled that, surely. His experience with Chelski against Real in the quarters two years ago is still haunting him. That night two years ago was a 'one-off' that proceeded to happen again to Sh#tty in the semis. This time around he actively invited lightning to strike for the third time. Fro...

Came here to say this Kane has just as much talent around him. Musiala is about as good a young playmaking Mid as there is How many assists does he have in the farmer's league this season?

But would it be too much to ask for this putative singer who could actually sing - and had two normal eyes in his head?

You know he was miming?

Paul McCartney and John Lennon were in the cupboard.

Iose reminds me of one of those wind-up toy cars I had as a kid.... wind em up and let him loose....

Surely the answer is a floating national stadium! That way it will be unaffected by rising sea levels and can also be taken around NZ so that matches can take place at different locations.. That's a fantastic idea. :thumbup: We should call it Athletic Park. With a stiff southerly blowing, Petone wi...

Melbourne has good public transit though Yup they need to upgrade the infra along with the stadium and get Auckland set up for the next 100 years. In 100 years, Northland will be the fourth major island and anything on the waterfront will be 5 metres beneath low tide. Eden Park will be closer to th...

I think the Blues will win. Defence

I hope it's a good game. Who are the 3 outstanding players (however defined) for the Blues side, that I should watch out for? As a Hurricanes fan, I'm still re-familiarising myself with the players in the other NZ teams. Future All Blacks Ricky Ricketelli, Taufa Funaki and Harry Plummer spring to m...

Grandpa

Well he's miles ahead as a player. But yes, the service he gets at bayern is a fraction of what haaland receives. Offset of course by the quality of opposition. I'd like to see Haaland at Forest. Is he any better than Chris Wood? Similar type players for me. One dimensional. Wood probably not quite...

Grandpa

Who doubted Haaland for golden boot then? Roy Keane! I hope Cole Palmer scores ten next match. Crazy figures for a midfielder in a crap team. Keane never said anything about haaland's goalscoring ability. Stop trying to ruin a good story :lol: Still think Kane would score as many at City and is a b...
