Not heard of that so just looked it up looks nice enough and being early in the season waiters/locals will be all enthusiastic and wont be sick and tired of English people yet Yeah dont change up too much more than your likely to spend of course or you'll lose out exchanging it back....happy hols and all that.

Ive got absolutely no idea what your on about but brilliant that is when you hear folk that have taken the time to learn and understand new stuff whether its something you yourself are interested in or not.
-
Agreed.....maybe it was just our area but i always thought there was something a bit odd about chaps who made a point of telling you they dont like football,its our national sport for a reason what did they do at school when all the other boys were nattering about the footie....same for most of the other subjects you'd either have to be the most boring b*****d in the world or a bit of a loner to not have the yap about lifes topics when around the chaps.

Not Bodrum market ?
-
Just change up enough to get you off and running once you're there for the first day then change the bulk of your money up once there mate you'll get a better rate....never change it all up this side. Whereabouts you going anyway ?....i get over to Istanbul a few times a year but some nice beaches down in the south Olu Deniz and suchlike.

Its funny with Moyse im not too fussed either way whether he stays or go's to be honest i think he's done a brilliant job getting all these " new fans " what they wanted ......but now having tasted a bit of European football,nicking a trophy and experiencing the things with your pals you dont think you'll ever experience as a West Ham fan i just feel a bit nonplussed about Moyse now.....as a club we gave up on everything we valued so to now make demands is a bit rich. On the way home from the game last night i was listening to Talksport and they had at least 3 Everton fans phone in talki

Wasnt too disappointed with our lot i thought we had some good spells in the game,probably a fair result Moyse made a few terrible decisions...but then they are only terrible decisions when they dont work i suppose. Thought the second penalty was absolutely diabolical ,how Philips can get tackled from behind in his own box and the opposing player go's down and gets a penalty for it is a mystery to me....apart from that no complaints really,cracking atmosphere as always in the ground and a good game to watch.

Most of these big dogs look like they'd be blowing out of their arse after 10 minutes proper exertion are they soft bodied or just not blessed genetically......i always felt with pit bulls years ago once you went above about 55/60 lb you lost a lot of drive and desire....they was much harder to condition and you generally lost muscle tone and physical strength and quality the bigger they got....different breeds i know but cant imagine its much different,bigger isnt always better with performance dogs.

Ive eaten in pretty much all the top London restaurants over the years at one time or another and have narrowed it down to a small list of 7 or 8 that i'll use regularly......theres a massive difference between posh and classy ....classy restaurants dont have to be posh but posh restaurants have to be classy and thats where most poncey snobby gaffs get it wrong in my opinion.

How do you work that out ? Ali had no real size/weight advantage....when he held in the clinch it was for the same reason any fighter holds in the clinch,not to drain his opponent with a 6 inch height and 3 stone weight advantage like Fury does....likewise Lewis/Klitschko were both the same size.....and no holding and hitting is not permitted and shouldnt be tolerated by any decent referee....particularly when one fighter is gaining a significant advantage from doing it. I remember refs years ago like old Harry Gibbs or Dave Parris would of given you 2 warnings then you're out of there...
-
With a strong referee who wouldnt tolerate Fury's mauling and leaning David Haye for the first 4 rounds would have been an absolute nightmare for Fury .....pinpoint accuracy,decent power,explosive.....on a purely boxer versus puncher match up id have fancied Haye there. Different type of fighter completely but similar to Usyk/Fury the outcome could depend on the referee....Usyk is a far superior fighter so if Fury's not allowed to use his size advantage because of a strong ref who wont tolerate his antics theres a good chance Fury ends up getting disqualified.
-
The schoolboy worship a couple of you lads have for Fury is funny as f**k ! I remember us young lads arguing about the Muhammad Ali - Leon Spinks fights as teenagers you look back now and think what a load of old bollocks that was.....history is good like that rivalries that meant so much at the time pan out into insignificance,in 50 years time nobody is going to remember Joshua or Fury they just havent impacted sport enough. Its funny i often think how the Yanks will look back at this era with embarrassment at what they've done with Wilder.....all the iconic heavyweights they've had
-
Ive seen Kongo box a few times and he's a neat,very together type of fighter doesnt take many shots but i thought there was a chance Marku would just maul him and outhustle him but Kongo's fitness and movement got him through and he ended up bossing the fight....i was quite looking forward to the Babic/Robinson fight it was always going to be a messy affair....unfortunately we walked into the arena just as they was raising Babic's hand so missed out there.
-
I had a feeling that was going to be a good scrap and it turned out even better than i thought,really good old fashioned British heavyweight dust up i can only think of maybe the first Danny Williams/ Matt Skelton fight that was better.....2 tough and committed fighters giving it their all i thought Wardley should of got the nod what with the knockdown and the point deduction...it meant Howard Foster who gave it 115 - 112 had Clark winning by 5 or 6 rounds which is pretty bizarre scoring. Dont like that Ben Whittaker i thought he was pretty average in all honesty....if he cant open up an

Has an Englishman ever turned the job down ? im not sure anyone ever has and i dont think anyone ever will. Anyway early start up the A1 in the morning maybe i'll try and tap Howe up eh ?....beg him ? bribe him ? threaten him ?
-
The fact Jack Grealish is willing to sit on the bench for England when he'll be picking up League/Fa Cup/Champions League medals for City probably shows what an honour it is. Representing your country is still the epitome of the game mate any player will say the same.....why would it be any different for managers.
-
Graham Potter is free. Lee Carsley would be a natural caretaker manager if Southgate walked so he's free. Do either of them tickle my fancy no not particularly but id kiss their feet if it meant getting shot of big nose !
-
Because its the highest honour in the English game.
-
So keeping in mind that post tournament means possibly the best current striker in world football will be past his best for the following tournament,do you think its too late for this one and we'll just be left with the usual post competition " oh well next time " feelings ?......we havent had an opportunity like this before and may never have it again i genuinely think its a now or never scenario.
-
You ? Me ? ....literally anyone with a bit of competitive spirit will do. Heres a fact someone told me the other night i wasnt aware of......no English manager has ever won the Premier League ! f**k it pay Pep whatever he wants.
-
Lets have it right....every name so far mentioned has a better cv than Southgate has ever had.
-
Again, im sure you'd acknowledge its under slightly different circs
-
My hatred for Southgate aside ....do you think its too late to bring in a replacement for him before the Euro's ? Personally i think it could be just what this squad needs......some sort of organised chaos with a " just let them go and play " attitude rather than the rigid formations and set structures of Southgate......almost like letting boisterous youngsters loose to run wild.......like you said earlier the off pitch stuff is all disciplined and together now so just let them go out and get after teams kill or be killed.
-
Or..... Moyse fielding bang average players has won a trophy.....compared to.... Southgate fielding world class players has won nothing. Depends how you're looking at it i suppose.
-
Again,intricate tactics are not my thing but its what Southgate played against Brazil and what he'll resort to any time he feels danger.....for me its just a basic lack of sporting courage it would be like Mike Tyson trying to win on the jab.....no,commit to your own strengths.....be mindful of whats coming back but dont let it dictate your whole game. You're absolute right we are now producing the type of players we always wanted.......who'd of thought it eh !
