That The Footie Thread still hasn't been renamed The Liverpool Game Thread. Every week it's the same rubbish from the same folk.

Confused ? - last week it was all about Man Utd, the week before Newcastle Manager and take over , the week before England - it’s almost as if the latest subject is the one that’s debated on the thread ?

I'll just let it be my irritation though. If you can allow in your graciousness to allow others to have an irritation without trying to debate that too?

No debate just confusion especially when you’re aiming it posters ?

As I said, I’ll just let it be my irritation. No need for you to be confused over it, or to even care or pay heed.

The complete inability of supposedly intelligent grown ups to read basic English or undertake simple maths, and that it becomes my fault when these glaring deficiencies are pointed out to them.

rubber neckers on the motorway,
classic case today, an accident on the Northbound and the traffic on the Southbound carriageway slowed to a crawl until past the incident, WHY oh WHY?

This really does my head in when it happens. Just concentrate on the road ahead and keep your speed up you morons.
Bumped into a good friend today, last saw him 6 days back. “Hi Mal, how’s Jean.” An innocent, throwaway greeting. “Jean is in hospital with pneumonia and a pulmonary embolism.”
Holy flying penguins Batman… floored me.

Even more annoying when the other lane rubbernecks and someone then goes into the back of the car in front in that lane too. Happened not so long ago coming down the A3. Accident London bound and someone about 10 cars ahead clearly not paying attention and drove straight into the back of the van in front.

E10 fuel.
I usually avoid the media hype over something but looked at my daily cars average MPG and it has gone from 34.6 to 29.9 in less than three months. The computer has been running for years so the drop off is vastly worse than the current difference.
Anyone else had similar issues?

Full of yet another bug. Third one this year.
Oh and I'll add in having to drag myself of my sick couch to go in to work to book a day off next week.

This seems to happen quite often unfortunately.

The coaches are supposed to agree the addition or removal of players once the score gets above 5 difference to stop score lines like that.

Are they ? I remember my team losing 21 -0 that really was a ground shaker. We were the new team in the league and this lot were the drilled ones who had played together from quite early on. They also approached kids with talent and recruited them. There was also what was called a premier team and that was the best kids in the league and they would play in the age group above the next season.
All good stuff, losing isn’t bad for you losing big isn’t bad for you … never losing at all is as you don’t appreciate a win.

Has it not occurred to you that not all drivers are rubberneckers? Some people deliberately slow down because others may not be concentrating.

Are you sure this is the case at U15? He power play rule stopped at U12 for us.
It’s very difficult to manage scores like that. If we see a game being one sided in our favour, we try to manage the game as best we can to stop it being silly as no one benifits.
There are a lot of coaches with an over inflated opinion of their own importance and will continue to demand their teams score more.

Its called a Mercy rule. Different FAs have different interpretations and some don’t have it at all. It’s not a law, just a rule that some leagues or FAs implement. Ours do by putting our players in unfamiliar positions and/or we take a boy off.
I guess it’s a generational thing that goes in cycles. I remember my parents reaching a certain age and having a run of ill friends and funerals.
Thankfully Jean is still the right side of the turf but I heard from one of my golfing buddies last night that a friend had died yesterday. And then got a call this morning that another has died too. It’s sad, but it’s life.
