  1. Good for me too, I made a tenner.
  2. Think football like all sports is cyclical. A team gets to the top, hangs about a while and then goes into decline. United should have stuck with Moyes a year or 2 longer. No continuity. But I guess that’s modern day football. We want results and we want them now.
  3. Dr pimple popper. I am both ashamed and fascinated by it. Why do folks wait years and in some cases decades to see a doctor.
  4. Reality is that both Chelsea and United underperforming relative to their spend. And this game is a must win to kick start any euro ambitions. I am surprised United are underdogs to be honest. But we see, I could lose a fiver or make a tenner.
  5. Luton Arsenal last night was a sing song game. Arsenal went behind a few times but persevered. Shipped 3 though. That will have arteta worried. Tonight, at the theatre of dreams Chelsea are the bookies favourite. Which I find quite surprising. So put a fiver on United at 2:1. can’t understand the logic of having United at home as the underdogs considering they are above Chelsea in the league. Sure, on recent form Chelsea are looking better but hey it’s a desperate man who bets against United at home.
  6. guess it should be in the song of the day thread but…. This is awesome hope it’s making waves in NZ
  7. I hear you man. It’s why most folks leave. I left much too late in life. I will never have the material things I had in ZA as far as big house, fancy cars and the like but I am far happier here. Walk my dog in the forests etc. it’s something worth aspiring too. Not perfect but I have no concern for my or my families personal safety. Good luck. a watch is replaceable, an education lasts a lifetime. But start looking now overseas, possibly an opportunity presents.
  8. It will be worth it in the long run. Take heart. Knuckle down and get distinctions. Possessions can be bought again. just a point I want to raise. In a previous post you mentioned you can build a hell of a life in ZA, or something like that. If you can why would you look at moving?
  9. Football money is crazy fuelled by tv money Premier League agrees record £6.7bn domestic TV rights deal https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67619756
  10. Man City 3-3 Tottenham: Erling Haaland criticises referee on social media https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67609651 city players went over the top, they should cop a match ban I reckon.
  11. Moons ago we spent 2 days in Bavarians kloof and slept over in the cave. Fond memories of that time. Could hear the wild animals at night. One of the best nights of my life that. enjoy.
  12. Hey, I battle to work one day a week but alas. the trial here was successful too. But in time it becomes the new normal and productivity will go to previous levels I reckon. Ultimately though as we move to a knowledge economy this is going to happen. To attract personnel companies are using good incentives like work from home and reduced hours. will it work in ZA, I see no reason why not. But obviously the ZA economy is more labour orientated like mines and farms etc and those industries need hands on all the time.
  13. 3 3. Great result. city players the moer in for some reason. In a noisy pub so can’t hear.
  14. Son scores twice and it’s 1 -1. in other news, I been taking a beating lately at William hill. Down 70 odd quid over the last month ( but still up around 170 overall ) so been licking my wounds and shying from betting. This morning I go online and I see a couple of 60 to 1 bets for the FA cup third round draw. so I put a tenner on each. Spurs vs Arsenal and Sunderland vs Newcastle. well well, strues nuts Sunderland draw Newcastle. Mr Hill ain’t paid out yet, think they declaring bankruptcy. Just made my whole season and day. Whoop whoop
  15. I reckon the ou knew 😂

  17. Congrats. That’s awesome.
  18. Never going to hurt your career getting a degree that’s for sure. and my experience echoes what you mention. Many companies now insist on a tertiary education before employing , I can only see this becoming more stringent in the future to be honest.
  19. Yeah, I agree. Guess it’s to flesh out the characters. Only thing which I forgot to mention is that his daughters come across as self indulgent snivelling brats. I hope they are embarrassed when they watch themselves.
  20. Not a new series but watching Richard Hammond workshop. Yeah, it’s a tad contrived but pretty good overall I think. worth a watch if you into cars etc.
  21. Odds on red bull are miniscule these days. No money to be made, however, I would win. 😂
  22. After,spurs great start to the season it’s all gone spurs shaped.
  23. Watching spurs lose my hard earned cash. 😪
  24. How was this issue resolved, if ever?
