    JP heading out on loan

    Could the same be said of him playing alongside Bakayoko?

    Robins has to go in the summer / 02476 555 555

    Along with the views of Shrews fans who reckon Ryan Haynes may be their player of the season. I always rated him, but he didn't get enough of a consistent run in the side to endear himself to others.

    Biggest Embarrassment of the Night

    Thought this thread was going to relate to us playing in our second choice (aka away) shirts even when there was no clash. Utterly unnecessary and offensive to the club's history. It's not even like the white shirt has a different sponsor (a la Subaru vs Isuzu of the prem years), so there isn't...

    Reise Allassani

    Well, I don't know what the arrangements are, but he needs to be "groomed" (pardon the phrase) for Saturday games, not U23 midweeks. Unless it is a case of getting match fit like they doing with Jodi.

    Reise Allassani

    If we restrict him to playing in the U23s, we run the risk of doing the same to him as seems to have happened with Ponticelli. Manager saying "he's not ready for regular first team football", and not giving him any game time at all, so he became too accustomed to the U19 (?) side and hasn't been...

    Elliotts Car Accessories

    Closing down at end of August - site has been sold for development. 50% off everything - maybe they sold the phone too? Sad really - a Cov institution. Bought my first car radio in there in 1983!

    HAHAHAHA

    Re: the lack of trouble at the Checkatrade final, me and the missus were on a Metropolitan Line tube from Hillingdon, and it was about 50:50 Sky Blues and Oxford. Not a hint of trouble. Got a bit lary around some of the pubs out by Wembley Park tube station, but didn't see any trouble all day...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Liquid, I didn't say that I believed the radicalization was happening in traditional religious settings. What I said was that they definitely have a role in trying to preach that any radicalization they succumb to (the vast majority of which is online) is an offence to Islam, etc. But you are...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    I hear lots of Muslims, including "community leaders", clerics, Imams, etc. coming out after this type of attack and saying that it is not part of the Islamic doctrine, "not in my name", etc. But what I would like to know is in how many mosques up and down the country (and throughout the world)...

    Simon Gilbert - Click Bait

    Many stories in both local and national press these days are generated by genuine investigative journalists who work for independent news agencies, and the stories get sold on. The publishing rag then puts the name of one of their "journos" to it, and doesn't even acknowledge the original...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Interesting about the mention of Prevent earlier in the thread. The National Union of Students are refusing to engage with universities in fulfilling their legal obligations under Prevent, due to concerns about victimization, profiling, freedom of speech, etc. I wonder how many more people of...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    Earls Road, Nuneaton this morning. Just around the corner from Meadow St last night. No reports of arrests this morning. Another property owned by the guy arrested last night???

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    But the security services in the UK are regarded as being shit-hot, apparently. Hence the speed with which they identified him, and the speed of arrests they have been making in his contact group (including Nuneaton). There are reports of arrests being made after explosions at domestic premises...

    Explosions at Manchester Arena

    According to 5Live, he was reported to the authorities via the Anti-Terrorist Hotline (0800 789321, by the way!) by a Muslim youth worker about 5 years ago, because they had concerns about the language he was using in relation to radicalization and suicide bombing. It is likely that it was...

    You make a valid point, but the same could be said of a 14 year old lad who has a disastrous sexual encounter with a girl his own age. I take the point about parental consideration.

    Oh, you went Ryanair, did you? :o)

    "Critical"

    As if to underline Liquid's point, we now have what might be thought of as a highly-regarded newspaper, the NY Times, publishing detailed images of the crime scene and the bomb mechanism. But what is the actual fucking point of that? Are they just trying to make Trump look stupid? Or are they...

    Yeah, but Rich, the problem with brags is that someone who thinks it's their right to complain on your behalf may overhear and tell the teachers or the police. I don't sense that these boys were being exploited in the same way that a girl could be. And they *didn't* believe they were at the time.
