…….so can I bore you with some Fuller's news ? A new beer out today Imperial IPA. I'm popping to the brewery to get some tomorrow. It weighs in at a hefty 10.2% - They could have have called it Session IPA. Ahem.
Just watched the new Podcast from Dave Mac and Kevin Gallen. Interesting one this week, where they had Ben Jacobs on, who runs the twitter account for the DS squad.
I knocked Ben on here before for his hyperbole over Kolli. Didn't realise how young he actually was and feel bad now.
Some good back and forth on the pod though, although I'm not sure the divide is just generational. I'm Kev's age and can see past his rose tinted glasses, I don't remember much development after Richard Langley to be fair, but I'd say a lot of that was done to investment in the other local teams, like Chelsea and even Brentford, where the academy setup was ahead of the Concorde club (as it was then).
I think the key thing they missed though, when they were talking about the previous regime not using players like Harry Murphy in the first team was to look at the pathway in front of them. I've only watched a efw of the DS games, like the Brentford final and he did look tidy, but he was playing in an area (midget 10) where QPR have not been short in for years. So, I didn't see the path into our squad.
I'm thinking his size probably stopped a NL or L2 club taking him as well, as Men's football might have swallowed him up.
Anyway, I can recommend for anyone is bored during this international break, although fair warning, Ben can sound a bit "High performance", just like Christian Nourry, if that kind of thing triggers you...
There is a really interesting piece in the Athletic on him for anyone who has a subscription. Talks about his incredible potential that had him up there with Bellingham and Musiala in the England youth teams and the challenges of trying to find his potential.
We are playing Coventry u21 at Loftus Road next Tuesday and I was thinking about going down to watch them. Do i have to purchase a ticket, im a season ticket holder.
One of our riders from West London Cycling is taking part in the UCI World Track Cycling Masters and the TT is Friday afternoon at the Lee Valley Velodrome, 5 mins from West Ham's ground (another Olympic legacy) . It is free entry to watch, so cycling fans with a West Ham ticket might be interested ... details here: https://westlondoncycling.com/
We’re going to see it on Friday at the British Museum.Has anyone on here been?If so,any tips on what happens with the queues?Does everyone get let in at the same time?Help please. TIA.
Could this story get any more bizarre? One of the suspects rang the Police and apparently grassed his mates up!! Everyone seemed to have a theory on the arrests but this latest development was not on any one’s bingo card.
So not only potentially Tottenham, but I would say a strong likelihood that Man City will be relegated also.
Will four teams go down and therefore four go up, ie dependent on how late the punishment is for Man City. I cant see how they get away without a relegation.
It would certainly make the Championship ultra competitve next season. But we will be in the Premier League, wont we or am i deluded....
Amber Taverns apparently looking to take some pubs in London. Speciality ? Pints as low as £2.50(!), no scran, just nuts and crisps. The Downside - TVs showing sports and entertainment channels. Sounds like there would be several screens in each pub. I had never heard of them as they are apparently based oop north. Anyone been in one ?
