    Theres a black dog on my shoulder again

    Sorry to hear you're on a low at the minute AET. I experience those lows on a semi regular basis. I have taught myself to stay in the moment but to try and have the foresight to know that it wont last for ever. One day at a time, or even one hour at a time, hope you improve sooner rather than later.

    Doesn’t look like it’s going to be a sell out on Monday

    I love and hate playing Leeds at the same time. I love beating them and I hate losing against them. It doesn't matter to me that we aren't playing for anything other than stopping Leeds going up. The Leeds fans will create a great atmosphere in the ground and I really hope we send them...

    Why do you do the job that you do?

    I work as a civil designer and thoroughly enjoy my job - fortunately. Started off as an apprentice draughtsman and I've progressed up the ladder to a senior principal designer now. Pretty much as high as I can go without a degree, which I have no intention of doing. It pays really well, I work...

    Jones - new 3 year contract

    Also, I think McGree is a class above at this level. A fit and happy McGree that is! Something isnt right there. If he still wants to be here I'd be delighted if he re-negotiated a new contract as well.

    Jones - new 3 year contract

    Jones signing a new deal is excellent news. My feelings towards Jones are properly weird. I think he is over rated. Not just by some of our fans but also the media. Pundits coming out with "the attacking force of Latte Lath and Jones" leaves me very confused. He probably looks like a world...

    Films that for you were better than the IMDB rating

    But to answer your question.....'The Village' was a really good film imo. IMDB - 6.6 Would be a solid 8.5 for me.

    Films that for you were better than the IMDB rating

    Pretty much everything on IMDB to be honest. Always seems to me that the scores on there are harshly projected.

    Spooky coincidences

    Absolutely. Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. At the time of hearing this story, it was convincing and was told within the realm of it being 'true' and one of the world's most extraordinary coincidences.

    Spooky coincidences

    I heard a story on a podcast a few weeks ago that blew my mind. I'm paraphrasing now since this is how I remember the conversation going, but it is still factually accurate. A guy was talking time off work and told his colleagues that he was contactable if he was needed. This guy is casually...

    Kieran Scott’s recruitment really coming to fruition now

    Thought it was interesting to hear what Rav has recently said when interviewed. That we are in a position to invest in the summer. Maybe the short term plan with recruitment was to be in the position we now find ourselves in - with money in the bank to make a push in the summer. It's a nice...

    Kieran Scott’s recruitment really coming to fruition now

    I think the recruitment has been nigh on excellent. Most notably in the last summer window. Getting Rav was a master stroke. Finding Lath in 'Murica was extremely diligent. Seeing the potential in Rogers was insightful. Add the others who would have been brought in with a view to slowly...

    Sam Greenwood

    Bl00dy Heck - he's getting pelters on here! I dont mind Greenwood in all honesty. I think his work ethic is as good as anyones at the club. I know you cant hang your hat on that alone but given his age and inexperience, I'd be willing to trust Carrick if he thinks there is something there to...

    How gullible is the "average" person?

    It says 'Gullible' on the ceiling. My kids get me with that every time. Little sh*ts.

    Latte

    I dont see why not. More champo experience under his belt - a full pre-season.......a better version of Azaz playing behind him,,,,, A read somewhere his goals per game average would put him above 20 goals had he played all 46 games this season (I appreciate that would never happen in reality)

    Grealish

    I genuinely hated the lad when he was at Villa. In the main, for his cheating and his (perceived) arrogance towards oppo fans when being goaded. However, my opinion on him has changed drastically. Yes, he's done some stupid things but deep down he seems like a genuine and thoughtful person. See...
