Sell Darlow, Elliot and Woodman and buy Thorgan Hazard

Alonso announced he will retire at the end of the season.

Given his record of moving teams just as they were on the cusp of being truly competitive; McLaren will have a storming 2019 season

Say what you like about Colo on the pitch but no-one can deny he was bloody great at BBQs!

Poor bastards.

Going into a 1 hour meeting at work at 10.00 and not coming out until 12.30 <urgh> About a year ago we had an external party review our internal processes and he stated that one of our major failings was that all of our meetings overran. He then ran a meeting to demonstrate about how to run better ...

You go to one office party and eventually end up in A&E with a lump and a gash on your head (after succumbing to tequila and gravity) and the swines buy you a hard hat as a welcome back present.

The one drink I can't stand is Aperol and it seems to be making a comeback from obscurity.

That’s the lowest of the low. Stealing from the work fridge. I've now started bringing my own coconut milk and making my coffee with that rather than with water, it's delicious <awe> Guess that makes me a hipster w*****, I just need a beard, a man bun, skinny jeans and loafers with ankle socks. I'd...

It takes guts to come back from that.

Gin bellends, getting on my t*** how suddenly everyone thinks they are quirky and interesting because they now drink gin, people who I've known for years who never really drank it now suddenly act like it's their way of life to try all the gins of the world and buy fusion kits etc, **** off and get...

You'd think that the bastards could put WiFi out in the middle of the Savannah. Well the lodges had wired internet, I don't think it would have been too hard to hook up a wireless router to provide it in the communal areas. Having said this, I'm glad they didn't. The whole point of being there was ...

You could always attach some form of antenna to a giraffes neck to utilse their height for better coverage. Exactly OT. Wasn't Band Aid supposed to address this sort of thing? Then they'd know it was Christmas time because they'd get a lot of emails telling them how many days they had left to shop.

I think FogOnTheRhine is being a bit pessimistic about the entertainment value of this season.

2 red cards for every goal celebration?

Premier League Winner: Liverpool CL Qualification (x3 teams): Man Utd, Spurs, Man City EL Qualification (x 3 teams): Everton, Arsenal, Chelsea Relegated (x 3 teams): Watford, Huddersfield, Cardiff NUFC Finishing Position: 11th Top Goalscorer: Salah Most Assists: De Bruyne Total Number of Goals in th...

Yeah I saw that, but I think the arsenal fans don't want the current majority to take full control. So they want Usimov to stay, which means he's good. Logic! Once Kroenke attains a certain level of ownership then he can force the remaining shareholders to sell their shares to him. He will then de-...

Told you, I expected 3 big signings before the window close. Rondon done, two more to follow...

Thorgen Hazard and ????

Judging by that response it seems Ashley/Charnley/Barnes/Bishop are absolutely rattled. The pressure from all angles (manager, players, fans and politicians) seems to be getting to them. This. Wonder if all the fans mocking these groups for being embarrassing and wasting their time will have second...

I've been playing Championship Manager since the Amiga days, you've got to put a motivational bonus structure in...

I used to promise my Subbuteo players a fresh lick of paint before the match started.
