I had to switch off at 1-1. We weren't the better side, but we're still very much in the game and capable of causing problems. Turn back on to see Edozie and Welington link up to get a ball across that just needed a tap in. Somewhere between these two things, something went badly wrong. Remembering Stephen's clearance that he put into orbit, and could easily have put into his own net, I have some suspicions...

Highlander 2 was a dreadful film in it's own right, as well as surprisingly so since the first one could have made the favourites list. I was desperate for one of the Star Wars films to end, so I could escape. 3 hours of fan service to every character, while poorly rehashing previous efforts.

But is it worse?

Agreed. RussBall with us, was set up with Baz. For all his faults, he's a lot cooler dealing with the ball at his feet. McCarthy coming into our side gave us benefits in other areas, with a defence/team that had developed into being a lot more comfortable with the ball. Trying to set up the basics of RussBall with McCarthy is a lot more difficult. Martin would have been a lot better off trying to get in Baz and Smallbone. Two players who would support him, and who do well in his system.

With the extra MLG bonus of him editing the original post. That one of his gained an extra couple of sentences, since the original response to it. @Matthew Le God no, really, really change.

It gets better with repeat viewings.

Another transfer window nears it's end. Another chance for MLG to desperately try to be relevant while repeating the core information already posted by others. I remember the time you were desperate to post first. You were repeatedly beaten to it. Then claimed that your sources were different/had greater validity/were the true source. As you continued to get pipped to the post, you went off in a passive aggressive sulk. That was years ago, and you've not changed a bit.

🙂 The OP asked for a why, and the first response gave a sentence. It was only after I'd seen everyone else just give a list, i realised. 🙂

Did something happen to Issa Tounkara on his way to you?

Enough to give the players in the picture ideas. 🙂

But look at the amount of scar tissue he's worked on at the crisis clubs he's taken over. The processes he's put in place, the man management that has turned those players lives around. Broadening their horizons form thinking of themselves as footballers to seeking careers outside the game due to a collapse in form and ability. 🙂

That might just be from @trousers selection 🙂

Like @badgerx16, there would be a lot I'd enjoy, so it could change. Random favs, I won't pass by. Seven Samurai - A mix of action, numerous character subplots and dealing with wider cultural changes. Le Diner de Cons - So funny that even the characters burst out laughing at what's going on. Micmacs - Uplifting flights of fancy, built on sadness, heists, togtherness and the arms trade. Amelie also a great watch. Quatermass and the Pit - A superb example of a multi layered plot, with Hammer production values. Aliens - Keeps a lot of the beats of the original, and as much as I like that one, I watch this one more. Akira - A worthy, but not slaveish take on the manga. Lots of layers from political intrigue to evolution of our species. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead - Oldman, Roth, lots of wordplay and physical comedy around a tragedy. Metropolis - Years ahead of it's time. M is the better movie, but I've seen this more.

I don't do it so much, but would go canoeing in the summers. The rowing machines not only helped work all the muscles needed, as well as with stamina, but were always available to use.
