    The Footie Thread

    It is if measured by league positions between the clubs. I do, however, feel that non league football is far more "professional" than it was in the 70's and 80's when I remember watching teams who appeared to be far more lowly than Macclesfield, both in terms of ground, facilities, fitness...

    Golf Random Irritations

    Yes, that was my post. I suspect that a couple manufacturers have realised that an integrated strap is just asking for trouble as the strap is clearly an item more likely to fail. I was put off Shotscope if I recall rightly for the same reasons. Seems that manufacturers have now started using...

    Absolutely the correct decision - pulling an opponent's hair, not matter how violent, should be a sending off offence.

    LIV Golf

    Can this be right, or am I reading it incorrectly? 43.3m play golf on a 9 or 18 hole course.....but 108m play golf. Surely TopGolf, driving ranges, Sims etc cannot account for 66m people saying they "play golf"?

    Thanks very much Ken, hope you are all well and have a great Christmas. Yes, always sad to lose a dog. It's one of my friend's daughters who is only 19 - she had him since she was a young kid, so its been hard for her as he was such a big part of her life.

    Haven’t posted on here lately partly because this year has been fairly quiet in terms of commissions. Just finished this one for a friend whose daughter sadly lost her dog recently. This one is done in pastel pencil.

    Random Irritations

    That's interesting....ours is actually being reduced from £45 to £30 as part of the nationwide changes to recycling and waste collection. This is apparently an attempt to encourage more to recycle garden waste, it will still be collected fortnightly (although there are changes to other recycling...

    SPOTY 2025

    Errr...excuse me, what is sexist about what I said, I suggested her team mate was more deserving as she played every game and contributed far more.

    Golf Random Irritations

    Both St Anne's Old Links & Lytham have land, sand dunes and houses between the course and the sea, so no sea views at all. On the Fylde Coast it is only my own club, Fleetwood, which is adjacent to the sea & beach, but even there the sea is not always fully visible due to the sea defence wall. ;)

    Comp rounds to enter “majors”

    Strange philosophy to me, entering a competition but not trying to win :oops:. If your aim is just to play your best against the course, then you might as well just play a social round and save the entry fee.

    SPOTY 2025

    Yes, come on as a sub, missed a penalty but managed to score the rebound. If she wins its a travesty - if the Beeb want to give it to a woman then surely Hannah Hampton deserves it more than Kelly - at least she saved some penalties!!!

    He would do very well to see the sea from St Anne's Old Links! He would need to fly his drone to do so :LOL:
