    West Ham or Newcastle???

    Keep your cool

    An old PE teacher used to get us to run our wrists under the cold water tap for a few minutes. Not sure if it's just a placebo type thing now, but seems to do the trick. I always thought was something to do with your pulse and circulation, but makes more sense what your saying. Kept our...

    The 150th Open

    All these big hitters, and it’s going to be kisner that slays the old course… ? love to see it. I’d love him to win, partly because he comes across well and grounded on the barstool videos, and partly because I got him at 125-1

    Have you ever played with a known handicap cheat?

    I'm embarrassed that I can't play to my 10 Hcap at the moment. But yeh, we have someone who is 'gaming' the system to achieve a hcap for a particular reason. It's a bit daft, as they'll just get found out in due course.

    I’d make this joke as a Newcastle fan, but people would take me very seriously. Seriously though, how many teams have had ‘good’ windows so far. Only Man UFC (one for the FM fans) who seem to be really disappointed from what I’ve seen. Most teams just seem to be quietly, and early going...

    Yep, wouldn’t disagree with that. I think it was a signing based on practicality as much as anything. Doesn’t really fit the historic full back profile for Howe, but if he wants to give ASM a good run this season I can understand the logic of having someone more dependable behind him. I think...

    Saudi Golf was the long time rumour, but then the CEO got on our board, so would probably look a bit suspicious with the new rules around owner/sponsors (suspect LIV will be the same). I think we'll see similar deals to the likes of Noon. Middle east shopping site. Yeh, Striker is...

    Compare that to the back 5 from the first game last season... Woodman, Murphy, Krafth, Fernandez, Clark, Ritchie. Amazing what can be done with 70m and a bit of ambition. The green and white shirt is aimed pre-dominantly at the saudi market I would assume, although not sure Fun88 will go down...

    Was it a different caddy for Rory this week?

    Only one player between benzema and goal, and Fabinho didn’t intentionally play the ball… I disagree with the Fabinho bit, but understand the rule

    Saltburn

    Cleveland was the first course I played that had a par 3 opening hole, and the only other one since is Bamburgh. I seem to remember a lot of people missing to the right in our forum meet there then having quite a steep bank to come up. But fantastic course, cant remember if its a coal works, or...

    Steve Hodge in line for £4m

    I think (and I may be wrong) the joke is that the shirt Maradona walked off the pitch with (Hodges’) after they swapped, won’t be worth that much to the estate.

    Is this the end of WFH?

    The ALB I work for has reduced capacity in our offices to 40%. We wont be upping that, and have ended a lot of the leases we have. I think JRMs policy is going to be very london-centric and probably more aimed at whitehall types. We are being strongly encouraged to use it as a recruitment...

    LIV Golf

    Not sure if this should go here or in the footie thread, but Majed Al Souror was at the Newcastle game again last night. He is the CEO of Saudi golf and was pictured with DJ, Jared Kushner and Yasir Al Rumayyan (NUFC Chairman) at the recent Saudi event. Continued rumours that one of the...

    I don’t see it. I think city’s is just as tough. They both will win all games at home and would certainly expect too. Of the away games I’d rather liverpools than city’s. West Ham in particular will be a tricky one.
