    Russ headbutted him in order to create a space on the teamsheet for some good ol' shoehorning.

    All of them. I still convert prices into pre decimal money. 12 shillings for a bar of chocolate! And it’s half the size of the original.!

    Now I wander who that will be? Blackburn will be happy at this news I’d have thought.

    At least it looks appetising Stockton and at 10pm last night, I would have scoffed the lot.

    Wagon Wheels. Used to be the size of a tractor tyre, and could feed a family for a week. Now you need a magnifying glass to see them.

    Just caught up & listened to TSP271 (Ipswich). Said many times before, great listen & they offer a really good alternative viewpoint & with AlfieH some additional “inside” info. They definitely don’t hold back when criticism is “due” but are constructive also. Being a pod they have to be careful what they say, so no ott crap, which irkes a lot of you! <laugh> I know some on here listen but I get the impression it’s only a few? Maybe I’m wrong - I’d be interested to hear who actually does? I’m going to post this on the Blackburn thread as well. Of course the bosses can delete/move if they feel not relevant.

    They're called Space Savers now.

    "Space saver wheels are spare tyres that are smaller, thinner and lighter than a full-size wheel."

    Posted by the RAC but could easily be Sainsbury's.

    Lidl and Aldi equivalents are pretty good value. I was thinking about sending some to Staplewood as our wheels seemed to have gone missing!!

    I watch it live most weeks. It’s a decent enough chat and I enjoy the insight into upcoming games by podcasters for the team we will be facing.
    I get frustrated with Steve’s constant use of “um”, which prompted me to once ask if he was being sponsored by Um Bongo.

    Just seen this on saintsweb about Bazunu:

    “In summary, our no.1 set a PL record last season for the highest negative xG ever recorded. This season, he's on track to repeat this performance in the Championship, heading towards the lowest xG ever recorded in the league.

    Furthermore, our backup goalkeeper was the worst performer in the Championship last season, with an xG of -10.1 goals prevented, what is worse is that Baz has already done worse than Lumley and that's with eight games remaining.”

    Christ, I knew he was bad but the stats are absolutely appalling.

    Makes you wonder how bad McCarthy is these days if he's behind the two of them.

    Our goalkeeping scouting and buying is shocking.

    It's got to be money. Maybe appearances in contract and if he plays one more game he gets £x bonus?
