Just skimmed this thread. Kirk is the only poster who has touched on identity. We all like to “belong” in some form or another. Family, town, football club etc. Every Nation has its positive and negative attributes. I’m proud to be English by virtue of the sense of fair play, Tolpuddle Martyrs...

Yes it is.

I’m well known around here as a Teddy (fan) boy. I had a ndac and the addition of the TXPS was significant. An alternative option to consider is selling the ndac and buying a Teddy dac. Yes it’s a few years old but it’s also superb. I sold the Naim/Teddy combo to buy a dac-vc and 12 years later...

Gutted for Cov. Football can be so cruel.

Don’t worry Gav. Cov will win the shootout.

Saw Man U were 3-0 up so watched a bit of Fulham v Liverpool. Checked the score at 3-2 and said to Mrs S “we are watching the wrong match”. Extra time. C’mon Cov.

I wanted Brum to drop when they appointed Shrek. A football club should be run professionally; not on the hope of a “celebrity manager” being able to get results. Agree that Mowbray was a sensible appointment and I hope he makes a full recovery. I’m also a big fan of (and grateful to) Rowett...

Fair point. That’s what happens when I post something without considering the consequences !

I actually think that no replays is a good idea. If non-league Rovers get drawn against Man U and the tie is all-square after 90 minutes then go straight to penalties. The extra time is going to give an advantage to fitter players from a higher league. Part of the joy of FA cup football is the...

I’m interested. I would like it to be a pure streamer ie no dac. Since Wiim do not sell dacs I think I’m going to be disappointed. Veering off-topic, Eversolo sell dacs so surely they could market a pure streamer to go with the dacs.

Just about recovered from the nice surprise of the lions winning two consecutive matches. We have probably done enough to survive. Pleased for Rowett that Brum won yesterday (sorry Gav). Here’s hoping that Cov smash Man U next Sunday.

Not going to deny that ! Leeds is also the best game of the season when we win 😄

If I recall correctly, the returning officer announces that “Joe Bloggs has been elected to serve as the member of parliament for the constituency” or something similar. If that became “Joe Bloggs has been elected to serve as the member of parliament on behalf of the conservative party” then...

Just about recovered from the shock of beating Leicester last night. A superb goal. I was so surprised that I just sat in silence. Up to that point we were an embarrassment; nobody would have said that we deserved to be in the same division as Leicester. The goal knocked the wind out of the...

I’m full of admiration for homeless people who sell the Big Issue. Although I buy copies I never take them on the grounds that the vendor can sell my copy and make some extra cash. Am I being idealistic or stupid ?
