No local bakers around here. Gail's in Wokingham that's about it and they're a chain and a rip off too. Remember the smell of baking bread when I was at school there was a bakery at the bottom of Toynbee Rd. When we moved in 1971 after the old man came out the Navy we had a village shop which meant a daily bread collection from Nicholas and Harris Bakery in Salisbury. Those Lardy Cakes were out of this world

If as some reports suggest the players aren't buying into Juric's way perhaps it would be better to part ways now. Having a manager who's a dead man walking will only add to the malaise. Rollback to March 22, we weren't doing so bad, we'd picked up 18 points since Boxing Day 2021 beaten Norwich. Ralph was nominated for February MotM along with Klopp, Arteta and Howe then sometime around beating Norwich and knocking West Ham out of the cup Ralph says he's going to leave/retire at the end of the 23/24 season. We then get 4 points from the next 36 and begin the 22/23 season sluggishly getting 12 points from 27 before the WC and RH's departure. May just be coincidence but odd how the wheels dropped off once that was out in the open.

He’s been about as effective as Felix Magath at Fulham

This will be our ultimate EPL humiliation. You know what that means.

Thought Bangkok was a lot further away than that!

William of Orange was crowned King of England in 1689, Donald of Orange became King of America in 2025.

This popped up on X. A load of Yanks think it's real. WTF is wrong with them?

Yes but at some stage they’ll be degraded just as we were and back in the Championship. Same with Bompey, Brighton, Fulham etc. it’s not our time atm.

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
Winnersaint replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
My second point was made somewhat in jest. It is however, clear that their social media messaging is way better than that of any other party. Going back to the time of Corbyn it was clear then communications and PR in the Labour Party were not keeping pace with changes in tech and as you point out that is still the case. -

You're not wrong there. Farage and Reform are all over social media like a rash. They've been ahead of the curve with this. Traditional parties are still playing by the old rules and that isn't going to gain traction. Goebbels was a master at utilising the new medium of radio to broadcast Nazi propaganda and misinformation directly into German homes in the early 1930's, seems like this wasn't lost on a young Nigel during his youthful flirtations with Naziism. -
Its not our time. Nor theirs in a few seasons time.

Haven't been since 6th March 1976. It was a shithole then, mind you I was only there for a few hours.

Having a beer on my hols in Kefalonia last summer before start of the season. Chatting to a WHU fan. London cabbie of course. He said then that Flynn. Downes was never in a million years a Premier League player. Hmmm!
-
Juric damned him with faint praise a few weeks back. I’m paraphrasing this. “He is a good player, but must understand the Premier League is another level.”

Spuds playing Russball/Angeball and fucking it up as we did earlier this season.

Got mine from Magnet last year it’s pretty decent.
