    I'm loathe to say, several posts have been deleted from social media groups, citing player confidentiality, which is all a nonsense given that its obvious as soon as the squads come out. 

    Thankfully, it's no one in defence of any relevance. 

    I had a feeling it wouldn't be anyone of any note, if it was a guaranteed starter there is no way it wouldn't have been leaked. Shite for the 4 lads all the same.

    I could be completely wrong, but I don’t see the fascination with Eddie Howe, he was a decent manager, but his transfer signings were dubious at best, he wasted massive amounts of money on pish players, he couldn’t handle big players and was tactically naive at times. 

    If Celtic were waiting for Koop or Guardiola like a teenage fan girl, I’d understand, but Eddie Howe, man up and tell him to GTF. 

    Thought it was just me. Couldnt care less either way but I reckon the Howe thing will be an epic disaster.

    Booooooooo !!  Down with the killjoys and Free the Emojis !! 


    Where is @fringoour loud and proud emoji spokesperson 🥳🥳

    😂 I never had a problem with them either. I was more surprised that a few folk seemed genuinely upset at being 'emojid'  Could be decent if they weren't anonymous. A quick thumbs up was always quite useful rather than typing 👍👍

    That impression is incorrect. Viruses tend to stay forever (even where vaccines are effective) So, I personally, don't see why Covid would be any different. I would (again personal opinion only) expect tens of thousands of people to die from Covid each year in the UK for the foreseeable future. 

    That, for me, only emphasises the importance of moving to managing mortality risk, economic outcomes and social cohesion in the round - and stepping away from Covid exceptionalism.

    Not being funny, but you sound like a full on No voting Tory; but one of those ones that would rather not be outspoken about it.  Tends to vote purely for your personal gain. Could be wrong.

    I havent seen that, I thought maybe a different accent would suit her better, I can be a bit harsh on Scottish actors and actresses as I feel they often slow down their natural accent to be understood by people outwith Scotland, but to people in Scotland it just sounds false. 

    On a different subject, still working my way through Spiral, on series 6 , i think it was you who originally recommended it. I think its a show that has improved with each series which cant be said for many programmes. They must be the worst cops ever though 😂 Last nights episode was Tintin and Gilou fighting in the stake out van and they missed the baddie leaving 😂 Its very good though so thanks 👍

    That probably was me, Spiral is excellent and gets better every series. Very good characters, all flawed which is usually the key.

    Mrs Mainstream here again but is anyone watching Line of Duty ?
    I think it is pretty good but Kelly McDonalds accent does my head in. I think she is a very good actress   but her accent just sounds so false and it takes me ages to buy into her characters. 
    I think the hype around the show is overdone but it’s definitely a decent watch. My only problem is trying to remember characters from previous episodes as there is such a time between series. 

    Kelly McDonald's Irish accent and character in Boardwalk Empire were severely annoying.
