I like those programmes with little or no commentary. I watched one Sunday night of the Great Sheep Roundup where they bring the sheep down from Scafell Pike in the Lake District, beautiful scenery, beautiful dogs & an understanding of the sheer hard work of it on very dodgy terrain culminating in superb sheep shearing. What a long day they had. I was exhausted watching it! Great programme.
Do you think this virus is anything to do with Boris and his promise to spend 350 million a minute on the NHS. Or was he just parking the bus?
Oh joy, somebody's compiled a full timeline of this rotten season August 8th 2019: Ryan Sessegnon arrives carrying a hamstring injury September 5th 2019: Gio Lo Celso gets an injured hamstring in an international "friendly" against Chile October 5th 2019: Hugo Lloris dislocates his elbow during an utterly pathetic loss to Brighton November 3rd 2019: Son Heung-min wrongly sent off in an incident that sees Andre Gomes fracture his ankle November 19th 2019: Poch sacked November 20th 2019: Steptonho hired December 22nd 2019: Antonio Rudiger isn't racially abused by our fans, but don't let that get in the way of a good story January 1st 2020: Harry Kane injures his hamstring while scoring against Southampton - and the goal is promptly ruled out by VAR February 5th 2020: Jan Vertonghen looks a broken man when being subbed off against Southampton February 8th 2020: Dele Alli makes a twat of himself on Snapchat February 16th 2020: Son Heung-min fractures his arm in the early going against Aston Villa, but plays 90 minutes anyway March 4th 2020: Eric Dier decides to have a word with a fan sat in Row Q March 7th 2020: Steven Bergwijn injures his ankle five minutes into a game with Burnley March 10th 2020: we get knocked out of the Champions League by Monster Energy Dusseldorf March 31st 2020: the club furloughs 40% of their non-playing staff, which the dickheads of Twitter think is the same as sacking all our non-playing staff ...I mean I could add some of the "performances" but we'd be here all day
...and the fact that, from the off, just about every player looked like they'd been on Danny Rose's fitness plan... ...and Mourinho talking to the press about chucking games ...and Mourinho taking 4 players out training together during lock down... ...and..... It's been a disaster from the off and speaks of some poor decision making over a number of years...and there's no sign of it getting any better in the short term....
It also says a lot that Bergwijn's injury wasn't even mentioned in the original article In other words, this season's been so ****e that things like that are actually slipping people's memories (see also: France acting as if Ndombele's groin injury isn't a reason to send him back to the club, Rotherham misdiagnosing Kaziah Sterling's leg injury, Harry ****espout changing his forum hosting so he can't be called out for his bullshit without his brainless followers piling on...)
The official site is streaming the City 2nd leg from last season in full tonight, if anyone's particularly bored. 7.45pm start with kick-off at 8pm. A quick sample for anyone that's already forgotten it:
Still makes me smile when big Vic hoofs it out and forgets they use multi ball and it comes straight back into play
Apparently Levy has approached Poch and his team to take a reduction in wages, would I love to be in the room when they went down
Deferring wages, not taking a cut https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/fo...no-pay-cut-coronavirus-lockdown-a4416711.html Can our fanbase go a day without blindly falling for yet another piece of obvious rage bait?
I'm not surprised you don't see why somebody is being asked to defer a part of the £160k they're being paid to sit at home at a time where clubs are having players and coaches defer their wages You actually understanding something within the first half dozen times somebody explains it to you, that would be surprising...
