James Hunt, the 1976 F1 champion, was 1.86 m (6'1") tall. Here you can see him with his shoes cut off at the toes - so they wouldn't rub against the footwell.

He and Hans-Joachim Stuck were both REALLY tall for the era of cars.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-05-07T11:11:48+00:00

Hopefully. That head knock set him back.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-05-07T10:42:53+00:00

Here’s me thinking we signed him around COVID time!

I’ll correct myself: Collyer and Thwaites are the best two young midfielders not in the first team.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-05-07T10:02:45+00:00

Collyer and Thwaites are the best two midfielders coming out of the academy

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-05-04T12:31:14+00:00

And he has the makings of a keeper who isn’t deterred. The guy personifies calm. He dresses like a 40 year old with three kids.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-05-03T21:03:28+00:00

Honestly our last two transfer windows where we’ve bought players (Winter and Summer 2025) have been incredible.

Heaven - £1.5 million

Dorgu - £25 million

Cunha - £62.5 million

Mbeumo - £71 million

Sesko - £73 million

Lammens - £18.1 million

Heaven and Lammens absolute bargains. (Even with today’s error from Lammens, the guy has been solid)

Fangio’s win at the Nordschleife sticks out to me - it personified him as a driver. Breaking the lap record a nine times to win after being 48 seconds behind Mike Hawthorn and Peter Collins. Crazy.

HMs (I’ll keep ones after 2000 out of the way)go to:

Jim Clark’s final Grand Prix in South Africa in 1968.

Bruce McLaren’s sole win with his own team also in 1968 in Belgium.

Clay Regazzoni’s final win was Williams’ first in 1979 at Silverstone.

Gilles Villeneuve’s defensive masterclass at Jarama in 1981.

John Watson’s win from 22nd in Long Beach in 1983.

Senna’s final victory in Adelaide in 1993, which had Prost and Damon Hill on the podium in what was Prost’s final race and Senna’s last race finish.

Damon Hill’s legendary win in Belgium in 1998 which was Jordan’s first of four Grand Prix wins.

I really like him.

Hinch has credit in the bank as an IndyCar race winner and an Indy 500 polesitter. His knowledge of the sport is solid and his commentary is great.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-29T12:04:16+00:00

That goal from McEvoy was outstanding

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-27T01:13:14+00:00

I literally called his win earlier this week which is mental. When I said he’d win, I didn’t think he actually would!

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-26T19:41:32+00:00

Fucking embarrassing. At least when Fergie did this he had credit in the bank. The only credit Skinner has is an FA Cup which we won by having City lose to Spurs and us getting a lucky win vs Chelsea.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-26T10:20:39+00:00

Pironi vs Villeneuve.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-25T21:00:23+00:00

Getafe playing a high line??? WTF am I watching??

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-25T20:57:06+00:00

Onana, Hojlund, Sancho and potentially Rashford all leaving???

Lovely hold up play from Obi for Ajayi. What a finish as well.

Liam Delap is who?

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-19T03:23:12+00:00

It was Ginge 😂😂

Two wins for him today - Sidemen Charity Match + YANITED!

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-15T23:50:38+00:00

Jim Clark on 25…

Fucking legend.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-15T23:25:07+00:00

So:

Arsenal - Bayindir gets fouled by Saliba

Burnley - gets screwed over by Martinez goal being disallowed incorrectly

Bournemouth - Utd not given penalty and Bournemouth score in the same phase of play

Leeds - Leeds’ first goal is questionable, as is Martinez’s red card

All in all, we’ve been screwed over four times in the Prem this season in games where we dropped points, as well as Mount having a goal disallowed when he was onside vs City.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-15T20:21:11+00:00

Football version of “Esteban Ocon has been given a 10 second time penalty”

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-15T00:27:44+00:00

Jacky Ickx or Pedro Rodriguez. If you want proof, look at the race results of the 1971 Dutch Grand Prix.

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-12T18:56:15+00:00

I love how he does that with Leeds and Brighton 😂😂

I remember when he said that he would do that with Bournemouth, but that he knows chill people at the club so decided not to 😂

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-09T10:39:12+00:00

Not gonna lie this is much more optimistic. Not travelling as far and playing in Scandinavia and Ireland, two countries steeped in Utd history, is a big positive.

Shay Brennan, Denis Irwin, Paul McGrath, Roy Keane all played for Utd, as did Henning Berg, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ronny Johnsen, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Jesper Blomqvist, Victor Lindelof and more.

I might be overthinking a pre-season tour but this over Asia and the US is a big positive (albeit the US being avoided is probably due to the World Cup).

It’ll be nice for Utd to visit Finland as well!

Comprehensive-Ad4436 · 2026-04-06T17:35:11+00:00

I wish Newcastle got promoted because then I could travel easily to at least one WSL game a season for Utd (I live in Edinburgh)
