    Loads of sports like that, fun to play boring to watch

    Golf
    Snooker
    Cricket
    Darts
    Tennis

    I used to play golf as a teenager, got pretty good at it. It's a good day out, sort of like a walk in a nice manicured park doing a bit of a challenge on the way.

    Gonna take it up again when I get old n crusty <ok>

    Anyway, on this theme of livening up spectator sports.

    Cricket:

    One ball in every over should be replaced with a hand grenade, like Russian Roulette. The grenade will either detonate as the batter hits it or once it's taken by a fielder or wicker keeper

    So it makes it fair for both teams.

    We could have one day a year where every sport has to play with a random ball which is allocated at kick-off. So Arsenal v City is a snooker ball, Watford v Spurs is a table tennis ball, the fourth ashes test is a bowling ball etc.

    Can you imagine the wailing and gnashing of teeth if one of our academy lads had put that tackle on Salah?...

    Trippier seems the only one with any real substance along with a big punt on Dembele, but I have no doubt they'll get 3 or solid players in. They've got no choice

    Derby only 11 points from avoiding the drop. I don't know what the odds were before their two most recent wins, but if I was a betting man, then I'd defo have lumped on them achieving safety. I think the biggest clue they will make safety is their goal difference, worth a look in comparison to the other teams around them.
