    2024/25 David Moyes

    That's a nicer and more positive way to look at it. Thanks. I will sleep more soundly tonight now :) ...

    2024/25 David Moyes

    I don't necessarily disagree with you, chaps. I just don't think Moyes should be talking like this in public because, even if we do buy another 7 players, he is going to have to rely on the existing squad to a large extent. Going around telling everyone how crap they all are (even if it is true)...

    2024/25 David Moyes

    About 3 games into the preseason and Moyes is already reverting to his "knife to a gun fight" stance. I was hoping it was Kenwright that was responsible for spreading such attitudes around the club. Apparently not ...

    WNBA - 2025 Season.

    It just keeps going and going. Practically non-stop apparently random basketball fixtures that sometimes draw big crowds. These, well attended, games can be pretty interesting but there seem to be far too many games that have an end of season feel to them already. We are still only half way...

    Leaving grandoldteam

    Well, they are going to have to kick me out to stop my riveting, irregular updates on the WNBA. I won't go quietly (not that anyone else will hear it) ...

    Crystal Palace and the Europa League

    No because there are certain clubs they would not allow this to happen to. There would be a change of rules to accommodate the agreed commercial narrative ...

    Recommend just one book to Read,and sell it to us .

    Precipice by Robert Harris. Have really got into Harris's books, many of them thoughtful fictionalisations of historical events. This one revolves around a rather scandalous intimate relationship between prime minister Herbert Asquith and a young aristocrat Venetia Stanley. It is based on the...

    The Oldies Thread

    I think you might be entitled to this without moving in. We claimed it for my Dad. The council also arranged ( at our expense) for carers to call in of a morning and check he was up, dressed and had had his cornflakes. This kind of worked for a while. Eventually he had to go into a care home (...

    WNBA - 2025 Season.

    I disagree. All of my threads are ace, obviously (we don't need to go into all that again), but also I think a vibrant WNBA would be a good thing. You've only got to look at the enthusiasm of the crowd and the predominance of young kids watching, particularly young girls, when proper competitive...

    WNBA - 2025 Season.

    The "All-Star" game is on the horizon. I don't really see the point of it, to be honest. The WNBA season just seems to be an ongoing circus of practically non-stop basketball. Someone, for some reason, decides to put an exhibition game in the middle of it all. All the more unnecessary as there...

    The Oldies Thread

    Only posh people could afford plates in those days. To be honest, it was a bit of a luxury to have a functional pocket to eat out of. Go easy with the gravy, though ...
