Thread | Time-wasting tactics
at 17:57 3 Dec 2020
I recorded the game last night on the red button and watched it later on.
Ideally it would have been without knowing the score but unfortunately saw the club ft post on Facebook!
Knowing the score i think the time wasting tactics of Boro were all the more noticeable.
At least 30s for a throw in often more.
A player would go to take it and then walk away taking ages for another to come along.
Always kicking the ball a little bit further away.when there was a free kick.
Picking the ball up and walking away with it then throwing it back always over or under throwing it.
Goalie always taking at least a minute for goal.kicks, walking past a spare ball to get the one that went out. Walking around the net and to the other side of the goal, feigning to take it short then sending everyone away.
Free kick in their own half player goes to take it then walks away and calls goalie, another minute gone.
I reckon they wasted at least 10 minutes in the second half.
The commentator mentioned that Colin fined players £20 every time they didn't follow 'tactics' always.
I think the above would fit into that category.
Its time it was stamped out and I can safely say I am very grateful we don't have to watch that every week

Not part of the live TV agreements with Sky and BT to be £14.95 each after the international break.
Sky and BT will continue to show games to their subscribers as part of their package but other games including 3pm kick.offs will be charged for through their box office PPV platform

Thread | Newport Council excuses
at 13:59 5 Jun 2020
Newport City Council have published extracts from letters of complaints written by residents:
These are hilarious 🤣
1. It's the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow.
2. I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off.
3. I wish to complain that my father twisted his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage.
4. Their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence.
5. I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other day that blew them off.
6. My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand?
7. I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.
8. Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My wife tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is pregnant.
9. I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.
10. 50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster, and 50% are just plain filthy.
11. The next door neighbour has got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't take it anymore.
12. The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is cleared.
13. Will you please send a man to look at my water, it is a funny and not fit to drink.
14. Our lavatory seat is broken in half and now is in three pieces.
15. I want to complain about the farmer across the road. Every morning at 6am his cock wakes me up and it's now getting too much for me.
16. The man next door has a large erection in the back garden, which is unsightly and dangerous.
17. Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two children and would like a third, so please send someone round to do something about it.
18. I am a single woman l am
writing in about the noise made by the man on top of me every night.
19. Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my wife..
20. I have had the clerk of works down on the floor six times but I still have no satisfaction.
21. This is to let you know that our lavatory seat is broke and we can't get BBC2.
22. My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has fungus growing in it. |

Thread | FAW statement
at 15:27 16 May 2020
Today (16th May)
Received today from FAW
"Please be advised that further to the previous FAW Board decision of 17th April 2020, the current suspension of all domestic football in Wales is extended automatically until 12th June, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The statement below, previously issued by our insurance providers Bluefin, is still in effect.
“Neither the Countycover Liability insurance package or Personal Accident insurance arranged through the Football Association of Wales will respond to claims if clubs continue to provide sessions which is against the advice of the Government and Governing Body.
"This includes clubs arranging matches, training sessions, friendlies, competitions and tournaments.
"Furthermore, as Personal Accident insurance does not provide cover in respect of Sickness, Disease or Illness, there is no cover for a person contracting COVID-19 whilst playing or training.
"There is an obligation for all officials to take all reasonable precautions to ensure the wellbeing of members and we thank you for your co-operation at this unprecedented time."
Above all, the most important priority for the FAW is the health and wellbeing of everyone. The FAW encourages everyone to follow the advice of the UK & Welsh Governments and Public Health Wales. Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the pandemic." |

With the lockdown extended in Wales.
There are in all areas those that dont take s blind bit of notice and carry on regardless and are really taking the p!ss whilst the vast majority comply.
Just wondering what members would do?
Would you join the hundreds of thousands who have done so already and report them to the Police?

Thread | Max Boyce new poem
at 10:45 14 Apr 2020
🌟 Max Boyce has written a beautiful poem, in his own inimitable way, about these troubled times called ‘When Just The Tide Went Out'.
(which can be sung to the tune of 'Hymns and Arias')
We hope it brings a smile to your face and keeps you safe...
Team Max 🏴💙
'When Just The Tide Went Out'
Last night as I lay sleeping
When dreams came fast to me
I dreamt I saw JERUSALEM
Beside a tideless sea
And one dream I’ll remember
As the stars began to fall
Was Banksy painting Alun Wyn
On my neighbour’s garage wall
And dreams like that sustain me
Till these darkest times have past
And chase away the shadows
No caring night should cast
But times like this can shine a light
As hardship often can
To see the best in people
And the good there is in man
And I remember Swansea with nobody about
When the shops were closed like Sunday
And just the tide went out
And I remember Mumbles with the harbour in its keep
And the fishing boats at anchor that trawl the waters deep
And I heard the seabirds calling
As the gulls all wheeled about
But all the town was sleeping now
And just the tide went out
And when these days are over
And memories remain
Of children painting Rainbows
When the sun shone through the rain
And I thought of all the nurses who stretchered all the pain
And I hope they never get to see a time like this again
And I prayed last week for Boris
Who knocked on Heavens door
And I thought of voting Tory, which I’ve never done before
And though the sun is shining now I’ve no immediate plans
So I’ll write a book on ‘Staying In’ and ‘Ways To Wash Your Hands’
And I’ll remember mornings with nobody about
When the shops were closed like Sunday
And just the tide went out.
Max Boyce MBE

Thread | Swansea's biggest legend?
at 11:21 22 Jan 2020
Reading the info on the Stoke game reminded me that their ground is on Stanley Matthews Way, Man Utd have Sir Matt Busby Way etc. Many teams also have stands e.g. The Bobby Moore stand at the old WHU ground.
This led me to thinking who is Swansea's biggest legend and are they worthy of having the road or stand named after them? |
