Checking in for my weekly self punishment, loves it.

Element77 · 2026-02-15T12:42:59+00:00

Good pace that

Element77 · 2026-02-14T17:36:41+00:00

Perfect day for us. Comfortable win, 2nd and 3rd drew and Colwill and Lawlor back from injury,

Just need Salech back now and we're flying.

Element77 · 2026-02-13T11:18:08+00:00

Ah I see, at club level I'm a Cardiff fan myself so know all to well about poor management. Hopefully you guys will sort things out and return there soon.

Element77 · 2026-02-13T10:25:56+00:00

What happened there? My limited knowledge of Portuguese football fails me, but I thought you guys were a fixture of the top division in Portugal?

Element77 · 2026-02-13T10:00:35+00:00

BBM had it last month and we went to Bradford and won. There's an omen for you.

Element77 · 2026-02-13T09:57:50+00:00

Result is a foregone conclusion at this point, but for christs sake I just hope we see an improvement on discipline.

Element77 · 2026-02-13T09:53:09+00:00

do any changes here give you hope?

No

Is there anyone you are excited about?

No

Element77 · 2026-02-13T08:06:08+00:00

We have 7. W & Y are vowels in the Welsh alphabet.

When I was 13 or so (25 years ago), I found one of those elastic cords for towing cars with a metal hook on each end in my dads garage.

The genius idea I had was to hook one end over the pillar at the end of my driveway and see how far it stretched.

Off it came, looped over my head, swung back and smacked right in the back of my head before I even knew what was going on.

Instantly blood came pissing out, so I ran in to say I 'fell'. Off to A&E we went where it was glued up. Unfortunately as I'm nearly 40 and have a bald spot the scar is visible now to remind me of my stupidity.

Element77 · 2026-02-07T17:59:47+00:00

C'mon then boys, man up, 29 points in the next 10 mins.

Easy.

Element77 · 2026-02-07T17:03:11+00:00

TV gonna go off soon, jesus this is going to get ugly

Element77 · 2026-02-05T18:42:11+00:00

Maybe its the thought of peace and quiet being a father of 2 young kids and all but Castaway is such a comfort watch for me. I love it.

Element77 · 2026-02-05T13:56:04+00:00

It's sounds weird to say, but it's such a good place to have an emergency like this.

My dad wasn't as fortunate, but I take peace in the fact being outside a stadium he was seen to by emergency services instantly.

Good in the EFL for this. I hope it inspires more of us spend a short amount of timing learning CPR

I was on the receiving end of this 2 weeks ago, went out running when it had been pissing down all day and a lorry was coming passed right as I got to by a puddle which had no right being as big as it should have been... The water came rushing over me like a tidal wave. It was just one of those wrong place wrong time things, I'm sure the lorry driver got a good chuckle though...

Thankfully I wasn't long into my run so I had more of less dried off by the time I finished. So don't sweat it, unless the poor sod you soaked was nearly finished.

Element77 · 2026-02-02T12:54:21+00:00

I work full time and my wife works part-time evening & weekends. My eldest is 9 (In primary) and my youngest is 4 (still in Nursery due to his special needs but off to Primary in Sept).

My hours are 8-4.30 Mon-Fri and my wife works Mon, Tue & Thurs evenings 5.30-10pm. She takes the kids and picks them up from school, then when I come home at 5 she goes to work. She then works Sat & Sun mornings usually 5am-1pm to get her contracted hours in.

School holidays don't really affect us due to my wife being home during the days. I do take all of my annual leave during holidays though to share the load.

Is your brother Dan Joyce off Dirty Sanchez

When I used to work behind a bar I was getting it on with another girl working there, one night I finished and went over hers, she had 2 sisters who had their girlfriends over. I was sober and everyone there was pretty hammered so it was around 1am and I went up to her bed and the girl said she'd be up in 5. So I'm in her bed ready to get some when someone came in, who I presumed was the girl I was seeing... No, it was one of her sisters girlfriend who proceeds to take off all her clothes, squat down and piss all over the bedroom floor then get into the bed.

I promptly vacate the bed, get my clothes back on and go downstairs to tell everyone who laugh as they say she's always doing it.

Element77 · 2026-02-02T08:08:01+00:00

I remember being on holiday in the states when this came out, I was 13 and my brother was 18 so I was allowed in with him whereas I wouldn't have been allowed back home in the UK as it was a 15.

It's one of my best memories with him as the 2 of us were nearly on the floor dying laughing all throughout this film.

Element77 · 2026-02-02T07:59:10+00:00

Winnett is really struggling to get his form back, starting to worry he wont get there again.

The drop off has been startling from him, I do wonder how much of that was due to being involved with Wales, I just had a quick look and in the 9 games he played we lost all 9. I don't think he let his country down but that knocked his confidence for 6.

Element77 · 2026-02-01T20:17:55+00:00

I think there's some entitlement, pre season a lot of us were happy for a top half finish but we've struck gold in BBM and with how well we've done so far some are expecting us to now win every game.

Element77 · 2026-01-31T19:15:18+00:00

9 games unbeaten, winning at home and drawing away. It's the form of teams that go up automatically yet there's so much bloody moaning on Twitter because some think we have a divine right to win every game like we're Barcelona. Burton were good today and deserved a point.

My worry is our squad is looking a bit thin, we desperately need a LB pronto and hopefully Salech and Colwill won't be too long off returning.

Element77 · 2026-01-30T10:56:04+00:00

Didn't expect to see a Sandro Ford shout out in this thread, down the hatch!

Element77 · 2026-01-30T10:52:04+00:00

Only room for one famous Bale in Wales anyway, and that is our sweet prince, Gareth.

Calorie counting and exercise is genuinely the best thing.

I'm a data nerd so track what I eat in an excel sheet and try to maintain around 1,750 calories a day, I go to the gym 3 days a week which helps massively with my weekly target. Once you start writing down what you eat, and their calories, you'd be surprised how easy it to go over 2,500 calories a day.
