    I think it goes to show the whilst the EPL might not be the best league that it's been hyped up to be it's easily the most competitive. PSG, Barca, Real and Bayern probably have no more than 6-8 really competitive games a season, the rest are against sides they'd expect to beat 99 times out of...

    I'm with Octopus and have the Octopus Go tariff that gives me 5 hours every night at 8p per kWh and that's pretty much the only time I charge. There is Intelligent Go as well which might be worth looking at although your car and/or charger has to be compatible (mine is not). Their website allows...

    Like you say, very depends on your driving style as much as anything. I've had the Ioniq 9 for a couple of months now, its stated range is 311 miles. During the colder periods I was getting 260 although the warm week we had last week I was just about at 300 so not far off what they claim.

    I'll hold my hands up, when the deal was done I thought we'd gone for the wrong option. I would have gone for Martinez as I felt in that particular position we needed experience (especially PL) rather than someone could be world class but could also be a dud and not hack the pressure. In an...

    It'll be interesting to see how the summer window goes given the WC however my opinion is that very little will get done beforehand so if Carrick weren't offered the job there is time for a new manager to come in and sort out potential signings. The window opens on the 15th June which is after...

    Big shout out to Lammens who had an excellent game especially with the number of corners. On that topic though, you would have thought that after corner number 6 Everton would have tried a different tactic and actually give their attackers a little more space and see if that works rather than...

    No one really knows as there's nothing in the Highway Code, the local rule is that whoever gets to the give way first has right of way and you just rely on people being sensible!! Nobody ever goes round it, you just plough straight across when you think it's your turn. The most recent argument...

    A square about. No body knows how to use it and it doesn't appear in the Highway Code. Stop....Go....Stop....Go....Wave....Close eyes and proceed.....

    Driver Shafts

    I was about 1.5/2 degrees up

    Driver Shafts

    Oddly my end fitting was the opposite of yours, I have the ultra light shaft but the recommended head was 12 degrees. I'll stick with my present driver for the time being and just experiment with the new shaft as funds don't allow a change just on a whim!!

    Driver Shafts

    I had a club check up at PXG yesterday and as part of that they had a look at my driver. Had a go with a load of shafts and the winner was one that I wouldn't have looked at in a million years and the fitter didn't even tell me what it was. It was a Project X Denali Red but it was an ultra light...

    Fantasy Footie 25/26

    Very average week for me which was compounded by having Dorgu on the bench. Have just started looking at chips but I think I'm going to leave it for a few weeks as I don't think my team is in bad shape although I do have Saka and Foden issues as they both tie up a fair bit of cash and neither is...

    It has a battery of 110.3kWh of which 106 is useable. On the FB groups I’m in I should see 2.7-2.9 mi/kWh so anywhere between 285-300ish miles per charge is realistic. Will be happy if I can get that sort of range.

    I've had the Ioniq 5 for almost 4 years and whilst the self parking isn't something I've particularly used the self driving forward/back has actually been really useful over the years. Mainly for the reason that you've suggested, people parking too close or me parking close to something to give...
