Reply | Keeper for next year
at 10:15 12 Apr 2024
Spot on the fans-phone-in idea, I think, for instance, my own view from the DW is that Sam Tickle at Wigan is easily the best keeper in the division; won't be cheap, and already talk of Sunderland and Birmingham casting an eye, but only 22, and great sell-on potential. And who doesn't love a left-footed keeper.
If the rumours are true that JCS might be going for an actual fee, I'd take a minibus up and nab Charlie Hughes at the same time, leaving room to save Martial Godo the trip back to Fulham for when Willock departs.
I've probably spent £4-5m of other people's money there though... |

the writing was on the wall for Jude when Florence and Year 2 stopped sponsoring him (it might only be me remembers that from bygone programmes). |

Done, I think the Marathon this year might be 90% Hoops, 9% my running club and Sophie Raworth.
Good luck to all! |

That's one of those 'tell me you're a QPR fan without telling me you're a QPR fan' ones, isn't it?
Is Lloyd Doyley available for this game? |

Haworth is lovely, the Moors, the cobbled streets, the Bronte Museum; Heworth on the other hand, although handy for the Metro...
Sorry Stow, no typo goes unpunished!
PS They drive past my old house in Newcastle in that video Paddox posted. |

I mentioned it on the match thread, but is that roll of the ball on the Leicester goal, a legal freekick? |

Was that ball 'kicked' as required under Law 13, it looked to me as if it was rolled at the free kick? Where's Pinner Paul when you need him...? |

Barry used to get annoyed that people mixed him up with Barry Took. One Royal Variety he was actually presented in line to Princess Anne as 'Barry Took'.
A little later they met again at a charity lunch, when, with his wife, he was introduced as 'Mr and Mrs Barry Cryer'.
'Make your mind up', said the Princess to him, 'last week you were Barry Took'.
Barry apologised for the confusion.
'Perhaps you and Took could do the show together next time and sort out which of you is which'. |

Ah, yet another ICL fiasco then!
I was working for a software house in Harrow, not on err Project X (paranoid self-edit) myself, but some mates were literally going in at 10pm and working 12 hour shifts, just to get machine time. As you say, first-job grads, no experience, laughable support from ICL, QA a joke - the project was a notorious disaster.
Strangely though, not a mention now anywhere outside this thread - almost like 'ICL' and 'cover-up' go together like a horse and carriage... [Post edited 8 Jan 10:53]

If we are talking about the same project NumptyD, I recall colleagues working round-the- clock-shifts as the ICL dev environment was so poor - wouldn't be surprised if a few 90 hour weeks were genuine.
Anyhow, glad to have so many fellow Eye readers aboard! [Post edited 7 Jan 23:40]

I've been an Eye subscriber for longer than I can remember, but I think they would credit that hotbed of investigative journalism, 'Computer Weekly' for breaking the Horizon scandal story originally.

Thread | Free Ticket Hull
at 15:52 30 Nov 2023
Due to a problem with my season ticket, the Box Office has sent me a paper ticket for the Hull match, confounding my normal plan of flogging a game I can't make on Twickets.
I'd therefore like to offer this FREE to a fellow member here - all I ask is that you actually do go (I will even cover the postage to you, how much is first class now?!?).
My seat is in Stanley block S and is a lovely knee-saving end-of-row-er.
Title your DM 'Dykes stick three past Tigers', if you are the 'lucky' taker, I'll ask for your address to post then. |

Has anyone tried sporty activity in this season's kit? The away shirt has the wicking properties of a polythene bag. 20 minutes of pickleball, and i looked like I'd done the London Marathon in a diving suit. Space age fabric it is not.
Oh, and I bought the mash-up shirt last night, completely sober. You know you want it... |

Reply | Will we stay up? (We need c. 40 points from 30 games.)
at 11:32 15 Nov 2023
Hmm, I'm perhaps slightly more positive - 4-6on is a fair price for where we WERE, however with the improvements we're starting to see, important players back fit, the possibility, as you say, of one or two career resurrections, Andre Gray (or is it Ashley Fletcher?) coming in Jan (okay, I'm joking now) - we're better than evens to stay up, for my money.
I agree it takes quite a lot to go right, and only a few to go wrong, but that £300 sitting at 1.66 on Betfair looks like a lay-all-day opportunity (full disclosure, I've had £9 of it...). |
