  1. Might bring out a GSa version with 21 inch front wheel. also the Suzuki DRZ400 is coming back.
  2. Got me on a train of thought, was at Ralph’s last game and Jones’s last game too. I don’t go to all that many games but maybe Martin does not want me at the Chelsea game.
  3. Mark Hughes is a legend. His thighs were like tree trucks. One enduring memory I have of him is his thighs. Damn. watched his final game as manager at Southampton against United. I thought a draw was enough but alas. A gentleman, Wrexham born.
  4. Big news here. We expect refs to be impartial but they normal folks and have normal feelings and thoughts. Not watched the video but if real the man should have known better. Klopp is/was a brat on occasion, as is Arteta and pep for that matter. No decorum at times. Not good examples even if successful.
  5. BMW launching a 450 twin GS….wait for that as I reckon it will be a better dual sport than the 390.
  6. https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/article/2024/aug/09/proposed-iraqi-law-change-would-legalise-child-say-activists what a disgrace.
  7. Retired. On a win. Go well. And thanks for the memories.
  8. Manager must be under pressure.
  9. How did spurs lose that. Incredible loss really.
  10. Man City lose again…I watched their champions league game and it was ugly. ole Pep has set a new record losing 4 in a row. Quite astounding it has never happened to him before. some good games today. Chelsea Arsenal the biggie. But the Forest Newcastle game I think is the most interesting. Forest have been a revelation this season, Newcastle going a bit cold. Lots of talk of the special one coming to Newcastle so Eddie under pressure. had a big ( big in my parlance) win on the Brentford game yesterday after they went down a tenner paid 58. And Farnborough turned a 2 game losing streak around against Slough town.
  11. What say the collective? https://search.app?link=https%3A%2F%2Fgauteng.net%2Fnews%2Ff1-grand-prix-is-coming-to-south-africa%2F&utm_campaign=aga&utm_source=agsadl1%2Csh%2Fx%2Fgs%2Fm2%2F4
  12. Trump has called it.
  13. Bookies now have Trump at 1/55 and Harris at 16/1. bookies were wrong on the popular vote by the looks of it. Interesting that Trump polled as much as he did thus far. Maybe America is not ready for a woman president. a little way to go still. But looking like the Red Sea is taking over all bastions of American politics.
  14. For the big clubs even membership is no guarantee these days. It’s just crazy and frustrating for the everyday fan. You either spend large to get on the club treadmills with membership fees and games attended or season tickets or go via resellers. You not even guaranteed of getting a season ticket these days as a rank outsider. In fact you won’t get a season ticket for the big clubs without history with a club no matter how much you throw at it unless you buy a hospitality season ticket. That would be around 8 grand minimum for the cheapest I reckon. So a cool 400 quid a game but you would get a meal and a few drinks too. Nice way to go to football if you can afford it.
  15. Hear you, but this is more world affairs than politics per se. It’s an interesting election and conceivably will affect bicycle prices in ZA indirectly.
  16. Managed to get some tickets for the saints Chelsea game. Now, these days to get premiership tickets is a mission of note, one has to be a member of the club, have gone to certain number of games in the past etc etc. so easy enough for me to get tickets for myself but my mate and his son are Chelsea supporters and not members so not really possible to get tickets. luckily I managed to get some, his lad gonna be so excited. Damn. Makes me excited. of course he won’t be able to wear the Chelsea kit and stifle his enthusiasm should Chelsea score but it’s gonna be Lekker evening out. Getting tickets to premiership games these days is nigh on impossible for the man in the street unless he is a member of club which comes at a cost and has been to a certain number of games in the past. Most clubs work on a points system these days too. No longer working man’s game. you either buy through resellers or buy hospitality tickets, both options cost mega money.
  17. Well the bookies been wrong before with Clinton trump and Brexit as examples. the popular vote will most certainly go Harris’s way. And probably by that percentage. President though is going to be more tricky. Bookie yesterday had Harris as favourite. Today trump is overwhelmingly favourite. we wait…..and we see.
  18. It’s a pity Harris did not do more as VP, she should be a shoe in if you think about it but yeah, funny lot the Americans. bookies here have trump as overwhelming favourite as prez and Harris as overwhelming favourite for the popular vote.
  19. That time.
  20. For sure, the greatest wet weather race performance I have ever seen. Been watching F1 for 44 years. Norris was dismal. Made loads of errors. Even without the ‘free” tyre stop max would still have beaten him. I reckon Piastri has more chance of being world champ in the future that Norris. I am fundamentally a McLaren booi. some humour from max
  21. City and Arsenal losing and Saints winning. can’t remember when last that happened. cost me a bit at William hill. 😢
