I dunno why it has 100% ratings. I enjoyed it and watched every season.... but I'm not sure why I liked it? Just found it quite addictive... being set in the 80s helped.

Grandpa

In the TV coverage the commentator mentioned before the match that an illness had swept through the NZ team earlier in the week I assune you refer to '95? or is this the Stade de France final? Bear in mind if you're a bok supporters for instance and you don't get the team year you'll be clueless ab...

According to The Standard, the FA recently released data on the Chelsea stars as part of their annual agent payments report last week. The data suggests that the Blues have extended the contracts of Fernandez and Mudryk until 2032 and 2031 respectively. If both the players stay at Stamford Bridge u...

Rory has denied it. Just like Rahm did... So it's definitely on.

McIlroy will 'play PGA Tour for rest of my career' - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/golf/68830978

Didn't watch the game, but this is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen. :lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLijRBhtOq8 WTF are these lads doing? Palmer's your penalty taker. He's the best player at the club, going for the golden boot. As Dele suggests a little more politely. Get fud...

Grandpa

Granpa Question for you. I want you to be honest…. If Liverpool had Haaland instead of Darwin, do you think they win the PL this season? Yes, probably. Also if they had Kane, Toney, Isak or Watkins. But I'd still want Nunez in the side... He's not a proper number 9. Diaz is playing in his position....

Grandpa

I am similarly in and hooked. I enjoyed it all. Though it looks like audience numbers may not be high enough to earn a second season which is a shame. Might be a slow burner in terms of audience numbers. You could always read the books if need be. The Dark Forest (2) and Deaths End (3) are better t...

So Rory could be off to LIV? https://www.independent.ie/sport/golf/rory-mcilroy-linked-with-shock-850million-move-to-liv-golf/a1474654763.html PGA stabbed him in the back Wouldn’t blame him to be honest Neither would I. And the way things are going he might initiate more change on the PGA side by w...

Can't Saka and Palmer both play? Palmer can play in midfield... Probably competing with Bellingham and Foden for that attacking midfielder spot? But definitely bench minimum. We're so stacked up front it's ridiculous. Like one of those 80s American hot rods... With a huge kick ass engine up front.....

the scottish guy?
You can't be talking about Bill?
Andrew Cotter maybe?
Cotter is pure class, surely not him either.

Dunno what it is about Cotter.. I love him on the golf course and his Twitter dog commentary.. but rugby... Dunno.. not for me.

Grandpa

Who is your favourite rugby commentator. For me it would be Benjamin Kayser followed closely by Justin Marshall. Ridiculously good knowledge of the game and easy to listen accents. Same probably Phil Kearns used to make me laugh. Mexted was myopic but a legend all the same. Can’t stand the Scottish...

Grandpa

If you believe it’s over, explain how? The City run-in is how. Hard to make a case for them getting anything other than the full 18 points available. Spurs away is the only fixture you could conceivably see them dropping points at, which looks less and less likely with their form in the last few ga...

Grandpa

City have been average this season too... And will still win it... But, but, I've just been reading that BBC article about this possibly being the best EPL season ever.... Oh it is... in terms of the closeness. Liverpool have over-achieved this season already. It's been a transitional season for th...

Good to see Aberg still fighting despite that water visit. What a player he will be...

Meanwhile Scheffler is a machine...

Talking of the Blues lock curse, Suafoa is now out with cancer. Poor bugga. Hopefully he has a swift recovery. https://youtu.be/YTT_dAAyHAA Can't believe he was still playing while undergoing treatment. That would be tough. Probably the best thing for him in dealing with it. Now it gets really toug...

One.

Bless him...

Grandpa

:lol: Get the fûck in there Bit disappointed as this may well turn into a procession for City again. I was hoping for a 3 way run-in. Liverpool's wheels have fallen off. Arsenal just didn't have enough of it when it counted. Still, if the Gooners win all remaining games and City draw one they could...

Sickening..

Anyone got a picture of Pep?

Arsenal need to put Liverpool out of their misery today...

1 league title for the best ever manager

OK 1 PL title for the best ever manager

Is he the best ever? Fergie must run him close?

Grandpa

It's OK Salah will sold to Saudi for £70m or whatever and nobody will bat an eyelid. All the PL teams are hypocrites when it comes to Saudi, happy to take the cash when it suits though. I hope so. Should have taken the £200m last year. One person who probably cheered this result, is whoever is the ...

Grandpa

Salah since the hamstring injury looks slower. Either he's still carrying the injury... or it's terminal.

Grandpa

iarmhiman wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2024 3:58 pm

Still going to be two league titles behind United

Two? You think Utd will win it this season?

Grandpa

iarmhiman wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2024 3:58 pm That could be it for Liverpool

It is it. Not just the loss... But also the performance. They look done. And it's the last few games...

Arsenal and City look a different class now.

Grandpa

Unfortunately a big choke. Though to be fair.. they've been struggling to breathe for a few weeks now.

Grandpa

I'd have taken Salah and Jones off. Now we've lost our two quickest players...

Grandpa

Darwin? Yeah he's stopped scoring all those goals. He's actually scored a load of goals since Klopp's announcement. Much more than before. Maybe he's happy he's leaving. :lol: Darwin is still making the runs.. but the midfield is losing the battle. Think they need four in midfield. I'd take Endo of...
