  1. I think it's 'one of those'. He could just as easily been a mainstay like Mulgrew for a season or two.
  2. Wtf were the Boro defence doing there? Not that I'm complaining.
  3. Fair point. To add to your point, best use of Goldberg in recent years was the random Ziggler squash just when we were anticipating a Shawn Michaels clash. Think that was 2019 Summerslam?
  4. Goldberg at this point should be elevating midcarders ready for the IC/US title scenes, or random hitman-type appearances.
  5. How there can be such a difference between the awful Raw and the relatively coherent Smackdown is beyond me. Speaking of which, Cesaro vs DB was a wonderful match to watch. Angle has praised it as reminding him of his old matches with Benoit and it's hard to disagree.
  6. Just like Mowbray wasn't mentioned til he was appointed
  7. Wow! That's more than 2 Burnleys! *dons tin hat*
  8. Without googling I reckon we've spent about that this century.
  9. I'd personally use plaster, just that ready mixed stuff from B&Q will do. Polyfilla for a hole that big will look messy and, although you're not bothered about the finish, you want as even a surface as possible for your tiles. Just asked my dad, he's a bit old-fashioned, 'Treat every wall as if you're painting it'.
  10. Spent all summer redoing baby's room ready for his arrival. Tore down old plaster, replastered it, sanded down, lined up the wallpaper, took about 2-3 weeks all in. Had a week's rest. Took delivery of the cot, took it upstairs, held the box at the wrong angle, plank slid out straight through the wall.
  11. Time to go. Prepared to eat these words but I actually can envision Mowbray deciding to leave at the end of the season if we finish lower than 12th. I've no reason for that, just a bit of a gut instinct.
  12. Maybe the Bell End will finally be erected.
  13. I struggled with Berg, but I really liked Appleton. He was a blunt instrument and seemed to be getting a lot more effort out of those players. Needed longer to see it translate into results.
  14. He's here at long last, was due on 22nd December! I'm in love all over again.
  15. I always feel that as long as people are alive who were alive back when something was common practice, the shadows linger. Eg: Homosexuality stopped being illegal in the early 70s. Only once people born in the 80s are the oldest in society will homophobia finally start to fade imo.
  16. ...He's in is 3rd season in the Championship with us and has stagnated in each of those years (with 5 transfer windows to put it right). Nobody seems to particularly think ill of him, they just think the time is right for fresh ideas. I'm of the same opinion. If we're miserable again come the season end, we should change, but personally believe the time to change is before the spiral starts (now).
  17. After giving them unnecessarily long contracts/extensions without any real foresight. Ditto Ben Gladwin and Sam Hart.
  18. Yes, when it's against Birmingham City.
  19. It's pretty nostalgic tbf. For Karate Kid fans mainly.
  20. Cobra Kai S3!!!
  21. Oh, just a wee FYI, Pasha has blocked me on Twitter...
  22. The Dream Team? Bellamy as Manager, Hughes as Assistant 😅
  23. As a Mod, I can only thank the admin and fellow mods. Not only for keeping the site running, but for sharing such a burden with fantastic moral and actual support when we all have our own hectic lives. And thank you K-Hod for lending me Last of Us 😁 Thanks as well to the posters who make me laugh and make me grumble every single day. Honestly, my life would lose just a little something without this community. Happy New Year and COYB!
  24. Fantastic tribute to Brodie Lee by AEW. All the little things they're doing to support the family are great too. Only criticism (and it's incredibly minor) is I'd like to have seen more footage from his Indy days.
  25. Ha, just corrected it 😂
