    ADHD in adults

    Playing devils's advocate, maybe you don't. I can't go to my GP and just say I have something and expect them to agree.

    Just been watching all of Mike Tyson’s knockouts on YouTube

    I always had Tyson down as the most dominant heavyweight ever but low down in my top 10 of best ever. He came along in a poor 80s heavyweight era and completely mopped up. He was fast, relentless and an incredible puncher and this meant that the vast majority were beaten before they entered the...

    Are we now just accepting the ST price increases then?

    But you said they "felt valued" and he is asking what this means? Why would he ask them what YOU meant in what YOU said?

    Are we now just accepting the ST price increases then?

    From experience I can thoroughly recommend the notion of just not renewing. We had season tickets and gave them up about 4 years ago towards the end of Pulis. Had them about 15/16 years or so. Anyway, it became a routine that we just did out of habit and every year the prices went up and the...

    Gambling Addiction

    Well, I suppose I am asking why ban someting that some can't control themselves with but the majority can. But people have pointed out it's about advertising so I can see why some are banned. But food? Many people ruin their lives with food (we are an obese nation) so do we ban all food being...

    Gambling Addiction

    Just playing devil's advocate, though......... there must be hundreds of everyday things that are addictive. Do we ban advertising on them all?

    Do you tip your barber after a haircut?

    At the sandwich shop it said £3.20 for a sandwich to be made so I paid £3.20 In the pub a pint costs £4.80 so I paid £4.80. When I had my roof done the quote was £6000 so I paid £6000. When I bought some shoes priced £80 so I paid £80. My window cleaner says £12 per visit so I pay him £12...

    Next England Manager

    Howe and Potter (Guardiola too - in fact, most successful modern managers) rely on being with their players everyday in order to mould and shape them over months and seasons. To have them 24/7 to instill ways of playing etc. Would the next England manager have his player enough to do this...

    Swimming

    I am always in the pool with the kids on holiday. Throwing balls about abd playing games etc but cannot swim at all. But I'm over 6ft tall and can just stand and walk around the pool. No need to actually swim at all.

    Paul Pogba Banned From Football For Four Years

    Some theorists think he has been stitched up here - Juventus desperate to get his huge contract off their books but can't as nobody daft enough to take him at that salary. Stays put and slowly the club move towards financial peril - in Italy if a player is caught on PED or the like the club no...

    Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid

    Because millions (into billions all told) watch football and pay to do so generating (globally) massive wealth for the sport of football. The lions share of the vast riches generated go to the players and, in this instance, arguably the worlds biggest star. People saving lives in the medical...

    Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid

    But you know that isn't a worthwhile comparison. Football generates huge turnovers as millions/billions of fans watch (and pay to watch) meaning that the vast wealth generated goes to it's biggest stars. Like when pop concerts and movies in cinemas generate huge pots of money and the biggest...

    Boro fan recorded making racist gesture at Leicester

    Just seen this version and she clearly follows up with "want a banana?" and mimmicks an eating action. The club really have to ensure she is banned and publicly do so.

    Boro fan recorded making racist gesture at Leicester

    I'd also suggest that it's pretty easy (in response to the poster above who says he can't lip-read) to see she says "monkey" too. Edit: Twice in fact.

    I feel proper deflated

    Best response so far. I genuinely believe (and I aren't looking to slate anybody or start an argument) that if the outcome of a football match has such a hold over your general level of happiness then it's your life and not the football that is the issue.

    Dishwashers

    Lots of people slating the dishwasher and, I'll be honest, it baffles me. We are a family of 4. On a morning we empty the clean, dry dishwasher we set off the night before. Pots are spotless and dry and clean. Inside the dishwasher is extremely clean too. We have breakfast and all pots are...

    Met a homeless man on Saturday

    Which is why I don't give money. I offer food from the nearest bakers - they choose and I will go and buy. One kept arguing he wanted Greggs vouchers instead so he could sell them (he told me that direct) so I wished him well and left. If they are genuinely homeless they will always accept...

    What is the smallest amount of money that would be life changing for you?

    But by making it far more comfortable (permanently) has it not changed?
