Plain and boring but still Air Max 97s so you at least get some respect from fellow sad old men.

I’ve bought a few pair of customised Nike Internationalist from there. All hideous and all met with a look of utter disdain from my Mrs.

Must be a flash London mid life crisis bellend thing, as I bought a pair (and a pair of the silver ones) last week. Important to look like a proper twat when doing the school drop off.

Henri Saivet is probably still on the books so he may finally get a squad number.

Sloppy as fuck this.

I thought Game of Thrones was totally overrated. It was watchable but there were just too many characters with ridiculous names. I’m fairly sure it was aimed at teenagers. It would have benefitted by having the character names on the bottom of the screen whenever they appeared, a bit like football games on the Playstation. The last couple of seasons were just mental too, some change of place. Anyone mentioning it in the same breath as The Wire, The Sopranos and Breaking Bad should only be given restricted access to this thread.

Aye, I thought was superb. The chat between the two of them was brilliant.

They look like way too much hard work, the Atom is tough enough.

If you have a bit of dosh to throw at it, then I thoroughly recommend the Wattbike Atom. I bought one 18 months ago and it is superb. There are so many training programs on there and the bike resistance changes automatically. You also adjust the intensity to your fitness. I tend to do a 29 min HIIT program daily and it really does the job. Also, you’re less likely to pick up injuries, aches and pains etc than running, 5-a-side etc. It doesn’t take up too much space so I do it in front of the football, Netflix or whatever.

Severance is great, should be the first one you watch.

See page 305 of this thread as I can’t be fucked typing it all out again.

One of my dad’s best pals was a jambo and I remember going to a preseason friendly at Tynecastle between Hearts and Newcastle in the late 80s (may have been early 90s). I think it may have had something to do with the John Roberston transfer. Anyway, the subs were warming up at half time and one the balls went into the sparsely populated away end, triggering a roughly 20 v 20 kickabout on the terraces. If anyone can beat that for the dullest anecdote about Heart of Midlothian then I’ll send you £5.

I’m going to this one tonight. Looking forward to it. Will be a very tough game but hoping we can bully them like we did at the end of last season.

You’ve not forgotten to delete your browsing history have you?

I just tested positive for the fucker for a second time. Had no symptoms last time but a very light cold this time. Shit timing as, if I had caught it a week or so ago, I could have avoided a couple of work Christmas parties.

Apple TV+ doesn’t have much on it but what it does have is good quality. ‘For All Mankind’, ‘Defending Jacob’, ‘Ted Lasso’, ‘Severance’, ‘Slow Horses’, ‘Trying’, ‘Invasion’, ‘Foundation’ and ‘Shantaram’ are all pretty decent. The films are pretty good too.

I thought we were decent and didn’t deserve to lose. Sadly Unfortunately, my wife is French, my daughters consider themselves more French than English, and we had a load of Haw Hee Haws over to watch the game. I’ve had a thoroughly shit evening and I’m now expected to support France. Not sure I can do that, they were lucky as fuck and we didn’t give MBappe a sniff. Unlike The Murphys, I’m as bitter as fuck.

Reliably informed that this is something Ashley was keen on when he was looking for buyers for us. He was trying to sell the club as an operating company but wanted to own the stadium and charge the operating company to use the stadium.

Can’t see many people guessing number 7.

Ruel was alright. Sam too.

Please tell me this, and this alone, is the reason you hate her? I’m fully on board with such extreme pettiness.

He’s just a phenomenon. As you say, he thrives on pressure. The next time we approach anything like The Cuban Missile Crisis then we just need to send Stokes in to sort it out.

I think it’s fair to say that everyone, particularly us innocent bystanders, lost something in that debate.

Went to the match today, absolutely brilliant. Bruno is outstanding and watching four footballers playing in our defence was a genuine joy to behold. Eddie Howe deserves a lot of credit.

Just when you think these bastards can’t get any worse. This is going to absolutely shaft all but a privileged few. I just cannot understand the logic for a party whose policies are governed purely by doing what they think will keep them in power.
