  1. Yeah I’m not putting the wages under the microscope mate. I’m looking at it from a club possibly struggling angle. If a club is struggling & has to use government help, would the fans be happy to see it slowly sink just so the club can honour multimillion contracts? Or would they be happy to see players say they could manage on less to weather the storm? ...but like you say some may take a pay cut? like I’ve admitted I’m not a passionate league football fan so maybe I see things differently?
  2. Yeah it wouldn’t be just a bop in one sitting. That would be a hell of a crop full!
  3. All the more reason for some players to take the common sense approach of maybe not drawing a full wage?
  4. I’m just proofing another loaf as we speak
  5. Nice one mate. I think there’s a few of us will come out of this with some new found skills....
  6. Eat less meat & you can pay more for the good stuff. Finding a great butcher who takes a pride in a varied & quality range of cuts, plus is happy to talk you about exactly what you want is a wonderful thing. Why more people in the U.K. don’t see the real value in that over convenience is beyond me.
  7. Yeah it’s tough going for sure.........may have to strike up a conversation with the other half at this rate....
  8. I used to be one of those plastic Man U fans from Essex. From school well into my 20s I considered myself a real a fan......I could even sound quite convincing at times. I loved it, but the money side of it fcuked it for me & I just couldn’t keep up the charade anymore...?
  9. Using it to pay non-playing wages is one thing, but surely it’s hard to justify still retaining players on full wages? I would imagine under growing public scrutiny somebody will do the right thing....
  10. Some clubs are going to use the government scheme to pay non-playing staff while retaining players on full wages. Sound reasonable?
  11. This stuff is lovely mate. Treat yourself ?
  12. Cycling is taken so seriously here that any amount of disruption is acceptable to belgians. In the summer they do time trials on the small hill where I live so there is a curfew between 6-9.30pm on a Friday night! No one can leave to go out or return from work etc to your house during those times. Police out in force. My Belgian neighbours are out smiling & clapping & the typical Brit that I am, I’m f***ing seething! ?
  13. Just had this delivered to my door. That’s what you call responsible drinking ?
  14. I’ve grown to hate those cnuts. Cycling is bigger than Jesus here ?, so navigating around large packs of these wankers is an almost daily occurrence for me. But by far the worst is the lone Lycra clad c**t racing through the park weaving in & out of small children like they were in the Tour de France! Apparently these arseholes have no breaks. I want to repeatedly stomp them in the face like Joe Pesci..... ....Sorry about that, just had to get that off my chest....

    Gyms shut

    Those kettlebells make great doorstops
  16. A couple of lads I grew up with have a little building firm which they’ve shut down for now. I was quite impressed with my mate when he said one of the main reasons was it would be irresponsible to risk getting hurt at a time like this. People really need think carefully about what they are doing at the moment so as not to put anymore unnecessary strain on A&E
  17. Fcuking curtain twitcher!
  18. Recently re-read Atomised by Michel Houellebecq. Interesting to get a different perspective of it with 20 extra years of living....
  19. Attempted to watch Legend last night. Wow! How shit is that? Why are all Brit gangster films cartoonish?
  20. Yeah I think we’ve got the message now mate......?
  21. This guy had it for real last week. It came on real quick. He couldn’t talk, ambulance to hospital, on a ventilator & drip..... walking home three & half hours later. He said it was scary as fcuk. They said his body probably hadn’t fought it off completely from the first time & this was a second stronger wave?
