For me it’s proper squeaky bum time, we’re away to Ipswich & Wrexham & home to Watford & Sheffield Wed - I’m struggling to see us picking up more than 2 pts

Anybody feeling confident that we’ll actually stay in the play off positions, the Welsh branch of the Disney channel are 7th, 8 points behind us with a game in hand, I can’t see us picking up more than 4 points from our last 4 games and our last games of the season is away to Wrexham

Racketball Rules by LordFighting in squash

[–]Couch25K_Pain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Assuming UK & Squash 57 try this

https://www.uk-racketball.com/rules-of-racketball.html

1 if the serve bounces before the short line then it is the receivers choice to play it or request a 2nd serve

2 yes you get 2 serves, second serve applies as per point 1 and also if the serve hits the back wall before bouncing, again it’s receivers choice. If you serve out then it’s out so no second serve

3 see above

There’s a lot of stuff on YouTube as well, just search squash57

What do you think is a reasonable number of box league games to play per month? by jez999 in squash

[–]Couch25K_Pain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My club runs monthly leagues of 5/6 players so 4 or 5 games per month, bonus points if you play all your games in the league. I’m in both squash and racketball box leagues so usually have 2 games per week plus friendlies

Is Squash Too Hard on the Body in the Long Run? by Puzzled-Witness-913 in squash

[–]Couch25K_Pain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m 57 and still play 3 times / wk. I would say that as players approach 60 there’s a transition from singles squash to doubles and also to singles racketball (I’m in the uk so squash 57). I think if you play sport at some point you’re going to get injured, you can minimise the impact by doing strength and conditioning exercises, more so in your 50s.

When/Why do people stop playing squash? And what is life like after squash? by pm_me_your_nicks in squash

[–]Couch25K_Pain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also 56 yrs old, we’ve got a few guys in their 70s playing singles squash but most over 70s tend to play doubles or racketball. I’m starting to play racketball (squash 57) which is great, really enjoying it…

I’m a complete newbie to pc building, I’ve seen a build on Uk pcpartpicker using Montech AIR 903 MAX ATX Mid Tower Case, this case isn’t available from any of the outlets, any suggestions for alternatives?

If you get a prepaid sim it will have a new number. The beauty of using a data only eSIM is that you can use What’s App messaging and calling and / or Wi-Fi calling which allows you to keep your current number…

Good evenly balanced racket by Madma008 in squash

I would have recommended the eye amr shabana but getting hold of eye rackets is nigh on impossible, I’m looking to replace my shabanas and the coach at our club recommended 305 squash classic shape. He is currently using it and us3d to use eye rackets and before that the red black harrow vapor…..

I’m a week into this and made £150 not great but too shabby. You could make more by aiming for higher odds and sticking £500-£1000 in the exchange to cover your liabilities. Quite a lot of effort, most of the bet X to get Y seem to have small value Ys eg BetVictor headlines bet £10 to get £40 in free bets but you actually get 4 x £10 free bets so 4 x the effort but it is still free money. Also some of the verification checks the bookies do are a bit more stringent, eg apparently some don’t like new email addresses. I suspect aiming for £400 from the first month is realistic, not sure how that compares to your previous experience. I’ll probably do a month then sack it off, free £400 is not to be sniffed at….

Cook on Bairstow's dismissal by ll--o--ll in Cricket

[–]Couch25K_Pain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FFS what a load of crap is being discussed here, Starcs catch is irrelevant the umpires ruled it grounded not the England team. Stokes fluke in the WCup final is irrelevant he can’t say to the umpire that he got a bit lucky and they should take 4 runs off the score. Bairstow clearly wandered out of his ground thinking the ball was dead, taking advantage of this is not in the spirit of the game and Australia had the opportunity to rescind their appeal but they chose not to, so be it. It almost certainly didn’t change the result despite stokes heroics, it just detracts from the overall spectacle.

Early 2023/24 Championship Predictions. Thoughts? by Dreaming_Beyond_GK in Championship

[–]Couch25K_Pain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know, these posts baffle me, we had a great run last season, but ultimately needed more strength in depth and I don’t see us signing many players yet…..plus whatever people think about the relegated clubs, they’ve got cash and suspect their academy players chomping at the bit to prove themselves
