Thread | Cup final tangential thoughts.
at 12:16 16 May 2025
My first one was my empathy for Daniel Bennie, the poor fecker was limping around the pitch at the end as the rest of the squad were running to all corners with the cup and having their pictures taken and he was missing out on all of them. The only one who seemed to take the time to get him involved was Salamon, I hope Ian Randall took a few pics for him to remember the night in a good way.
Second one harks back to a Sky live game pre covid and Dave Thomas, with quite a number of R's around him spotted Jamie Redknapp walking up from White City station and turned and pointed to him shouting "Look, look over there..." and as Redknapp looked to acknowledge it Dave finished with " it's England international Michael Owen" Redknapp grinned and then flipped him off. At the game last night I saw Jamie chatting to some two seats away so I reprised it with " Hey, Chris (Kemp) look over here here. look who it is; Michael Owen" Jamie shook his head and grinned. I don't think he remembered Dave's original jibe but it made me wonder if he gets that a lot as he didn't seem to mind at all.
WRT the game itself, I thought Putman did an excellent job on the Bees #7 |

Play the strongest team we possibly can or reward the players who have got the team this far? I know at this level it supposed to be all about the coaching and not the results but for a one off like this I am hoping it is the strongest team in an effort to win the cup, along the lines of...
1. Salamon
2. Putman
3. Esquerdinha
4. McDowell
5. Murphy
6. Bennie
7. Tuck
8. Morgan
9. Sutton
10. Kolli
11. Dillon
Subs. Clark, Talla, Manufor, Petrie, Vaughan and others. I am not as familiar as many on here as it is normally to far to travel for their games so I only have around 5-6 games to base my team on.
Please feel free to criticise/ replace/ tell me to never darken your door again etc.

Thread | AKTUR'S again...
at 16:46 11 Apr 2025
after the truly tremendous effort for the Cardiff game, Dave was astonished when I told him the sales, there is still 100 copies left and I would love to be able to tell him the issue was a sell out. In the words of Bob the Builder... can we do it?
Once again I would like to thank those who already bought a copy at Stoke & Cardiff.
Mike Lancaster will be taking Dave's place for Bristol, Julie & Eric will be in their usual spots. Thank you in advance to those buying a copy.
I spoke to him this morning and he is progressing slowly but mentioned he was going to try to get to the Burnley game but nothing firm at the moment. |

A little reminder that the new issue is on sale today from approximately 13:30 onwards and after the game. Dave Thomas impersonator Phil (sorry Phil) will be selling from Dave's spot in SAR, Julie and Eric in their usual places. Let's do him proud. Thank you. |

I recall a few posters have used AI on for various reasons and I have a question of them. Is it possible to ask an AI bot to collect all QPR results, and other pertinent variables, from this century e.g. and interpret the possible outcomes against the next team we are playing? |

I know there are many cricket fans on here and I felt his achievement today was worthy of its own thread. I've been lucky enough to have seen all the top 20 batsmen and it is quite feasible that he could surpass Tendulkar.
It is also noteworthy that he has been on the pitch for all but 3 minutes of the 3 days so far in 35 degree heat.
Full respect for what you've done Joe. [Post edited 10 Oct 2024 9:44]

None of the 92 clubs in the FL are in a Tory held constituency.
England only win major finals when there is a Labour government.
*Disclaimer: Calling the current Tories in charge a Labour government is a bit of an oxymoron.
*Disclaimer: I never even bothered to check if these were true or not nor when they were originally posted. It was just something I saw on X and is only for a bit of fun. [Post edited 11 Jul 2024 17:54]
