The "pundit" issue....I think most of the true sports watchers feel the same way but "someone" seems to think the pundits are more important than the actual game and we "must" pay attention!😁 Happy Birthday Chara! Are you going the traditional snails and rabbit, the archetypal Valenciana, or the faux mixed? Whichever it is, enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kelly Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Matt Law saying the Premier League are looking into the new shirt sponsorship as they believe the amount is too high Pardon me but, what the effing hell has it got to do with them, particularly given the nonsense they pulled with City’s sponsorship from "a totally unrelated company" who were owned by the totally related brother of the City owner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly Mark... first the "unacceptable" sponsorship now a financial issue? WTF ? Media buffoonery or media Goebbels type propaganda agenda precursor? Are we at a stage where "free market" forces are not allowed..ie..you want it here's the price.... unless "THEY" think otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even then, City were found to have paid 90% of the sponsorship payment on behalf of Etihad. (10% being the true market value). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sciatika Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 For my birthday, my partner got me some "cow pies". She tried to find those Fray Bentos pie-in-a-tin pies, which is comfort food for me, but cow pie is very nice, all the same. That paella looks really nice.

That takes me back! When we lived in Zambia those were absolute expat treats, along with the even more delicious steak and kidney puddings in a tin, corned beef and (yes) tinned Scandinavian cheese!

Backbiter Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Daily Mail stirring as per: Quote EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea have aggravated Crystal Palace in their pursuit of Michael Olise amid 'tapping-up' concerns There are concerns at Palace that Chelsea's potential swoop for Olise has contravened transfer rules and etiquette. Sources have indicated the south London club have considered formally reporting their top-flight rivals for making an illegal approach, though whether they are prepared to take such a drastic step remains to be seen. Just 'sources' and 'concerns', and no indication Palace will make any formal complaint, but let's damage Chelsea's reputation and get the story out there anyway.

They have been waging an anti Chelsea propaganda war in the mail for years , undermining any success we have and overblowing any failure , whilst simultaneously overblowing any good United result and downplaying any feel bad stories .

Sciatika Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Not sure where to put this, but it would do our players no harm at all to watch all the goals in the Australia-England game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a massive fan of womens football , but watched it today and Lauren Hemp was absolutely phenomenal , scored the second goal out of sheer determination and then set up Russo for the third with a defence splitting no-look pass , absolutely brilliant . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
