Ah crap, that's me out then, my cool kids badge got confiscated around 2005.

Has introduced me to some new music. Was actually listening to this track before I went to bed last night: I'd never really heard of Dave before. ☺ I'm a bit of a dinosaur. If it was after Tupac and Biggie I'm clueless. ?

Happy Birthday fellas! Hope you both have a good un. I'll use you as today's excuse with the missus to start drinking early. Her - "Beer at 2pm Silas?!" Me - "I'm celebrating the birthdays of 2 blokes from the internet I've never met before." Her- "?????"

If by "delight" you mean one of the most repulsive people to ever be on my TV screen, then yeah. ? One final thing, "Summerhouse" got canned between seasons, so prepare yourself for some things to be.....unresolved. It then skips 6 years, the characters all grow up, but the payoff is worth it. Fantastic finish to the new season.

Both great, I like Ozark more. But Mike Milligan in Fargo is one of my favourite characters ever. Steals every scene. Make sure you do Top Boy in right order - I didn't! - cos Season 1 Episode 1 isn't the first episode. ?? You have to do Top Boy "Summerhouse" first.

You watched Top Boy yet? "The British Wire". Just finished them all. Really enjoyed it. Some great characters.

"Thanks for all you're doing. I hope this brightens the place up a bit, even if its only black and white." On Southampton General Hospital. Thought this was better in good news rather than the coronavirus thread. Nice work Banksy! Whoever you are.

If Germany get matches up and running early, BT Sport could be sat on a goldmine. Borossia Dortmund v Bayern Munich in the title race is due 3 matches in on the original fixtures. The viewing figures would surely be off the chart. Which would mean advertising revenue would be stratospheric. I looked this up: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/top-5-most-watched-premier-21158602.amp The most watched Premier League match is Man City 1-0 Man Utd, 2012 (4.04 million). Under the current circumstances I can't see how a top level German match doesn't smash that record. A relegation battle fixture might even do it. Some TV companies are going to be making serious money. Would be nice if some of that was pumped back into the sport. Although, I'm sure they would argue they've lost a shed load in the shutdown.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.sky.com/story/amp/coronavirus-chris-kamara-says-its-outrageous-that-footballers-are-asked-to-take-wage-cuts-11981797 I see Kammy hasn't been paying attention again. There's quite a few "outrageous" things going on in the World at the moment. Not sure I'd include Ozil and De Bruyne taking a 3 month pay cut as one of them.

So, you've come on a Rovers messageboard hoping we're going to give your mob some credit. Now, these may be unprecedented times, the strangest and most mindboggling era of a lifetime....... but let's not get silly eh. Come back when you've cured cancer and solved World poverty and we'll chat. ? Oh......and finally.......stay safe. ?

?? BCS is definitely not for you then. Tbh I didn't love BB, was a bit cheesy in bits for me. (Over rated often) BCS is a lot darker and grittier. Stylish. I prefer it.

It's a really good show. Very slow paced though. Not loads of action. More about the character arcs and the storyline. Certainly not as frantic as BB. Depends what your poison is I suppose.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/stoke-city-jon-walters-coates-4020575.amp In amongst all the bad press of this, let's give some credit where it's due. Denise Coates is one of the highest paid women in the World and takes a lot of flack because of the negative connotations attached to gambling. But in 2019, she was the single biggest personal tax contributor in the Uk. Her company paid more taxes in 1 year than Amazon has in 20 years. She doesn't hide all her money in offshore accounts and fiddle the system. And Stoke were one of the first to assure all their staff they will receive full pay for the next 5 months. And, as I understand it, they won't take a penny from the Government. Very impressive stuff.

Oh dear! You've made a grave error of judgment...... ????? File this one in the dictionary under "mid life crisis" Are we off topic enough yet?! ??

No worries K-Hod, next time I'll post someone to try cheer you up. ? Now then, I've got Chris Evans, Chris Moyles, or Piers Morgan. Any preferences?

So Barca players all take a 70% pay cut, and our mob manage to stretch to 30%. Well bravo lads..... seriously....take a bow....

Forget struggling, how many family members are going to die! Which fans are going to be turning out to cheer on their "heroes", after Auntie Ethel has suffered a painful death. All whilst these greedy twats have been sat in their mansions counting up the pennies like Scrooge McDuck. It should be very easy to sort for me. Just set some parameters and blanket apply them: Example- everyone in the top 2 leagues who earns over 10k per week to take an immediate 50% pay cut for 3 months. The money to be used to support non playing staff, the lower league clubs, and local charities/initiatives. Then review it after 3 months. If you're on half a million pound a year, you can afford it. Turn a negative into a positive. Hope something like this comes out on Friday. Anything short of that could do irreparable damage as you've said. Football "community" my arse. Feels more like us and them.

My God, the World really is coming to end. Page 7 of the Bristol City thread and I've got a Chief Scientific Advisor, a chadbot, and ......fucking Donald Trump! Now, as much as some of us are losing confidence in certain players in the squad, I'm not convinced either of those 3 are adequate replacements. (Altho I'm willing to consider arguments for BB ?) Have all the mods got coronavirus already?! ?

Bristol City we've beaten 1 in last 6 attempts. Wigan we've beaten 1 in last 5 attempts. Barnsley we've beaten 1 in last 4 attempts. Out of 15 matches against that opposition we've won 3 times. (20% wins) Bear in mind 2 of the matches are away, and Wigan are currently 3rd in the form table and unbeaten in 6. Suddenly, your confidence starts to look misplaced. Although I would love you to be proved right.

Good feet for what? Toe wrestling? Sock modeling? They certainly don't look too good when a football comes near them.

I remember that. Don't worry, I don't think you're losing your mind...........yet! ? But DE's right, there's nothing getting hidden from you on both occasions, we will always say if we have. You just seem pretty unlucky with glitches. You been kicking black cats?!

"Success" and "failure" are such absolute words to use in the Championship. Yes, we all know promotion is the aim of pretty much every club in the league. But using those words as barometers, you would have 3 successful managers each season and 21 "failures" every year. Seems harsh to call 21 managers failures after being in what many argue is the most competitive league in the World, top to bottom. I know one thing, if we do have some money to spend in the summer, conversations with potential players should be much easier having finished in the Top 8 than they would have been last year after finishing 15th. Players want to join clubs they think are going somewhere and have a chance of success. Also, (barring spawny gits Huddersfield), very few clubs suddenly fire themselves up from the bottom half of the Championship to promotion. Most do it by having 2 or 3 seasons up there in the mix ( oh yes, I went there ?) and then eventually make the leap. If this is the 1st of our spell of seasons up there competing, I'll take it for now. Bearing in mind the last time we even finished top half of the table was 5 years ago, and we finished that season a massive 11 pts behind 6th. Not like we've been knocking on the door recently.

Totally agree, crap for the fans going. And UK would be sensible option, 2 British belt holders and all that. But now the middle middle east has their claws in Hearn, I can't see many big fights at Heavyweight happening here. It'll be Saudi for the blood money or Vegas......cos it's Vegas. I'm not a fight going fan, never been to a bout, more an armchair fan. So it's Saudi for me all day long I'm ashamed to say, merely for convenience to my lifestyle. On another note my pal from work did go on Saturday. What a great time he had. Came back with a signed glove and picture with Tyson.........Mike that is.

If it goes ahead it will definitely be Saudi. And whilst I understand people's issue with supporting such a regime, for purely selfish reasons, it will be great to have a big bout on about 10pm on a Sat night. We're starved of it over here.
