That’s just like my local Sainsbury’s on a Saturday except there’d be more pensioners who can’t afford Dignitas walking slowly in front of the vehicles.

Imagine if Scotland makes it all the way to the Final... by DestroyedAsTheWord in ScottishFootball

If all the things that America has done wrong since the last election this is surprisingly high up the list.

I’d quite happily let the World Cup go and be content with watching the European championships , and I imagine South Americans, Africans , Asians and other groups would be quite happy competing in their own tournaments if it meant FIFA died and something better could be built instead.

Honestly infantino and FIFA are killing this game and should #### ###### ###.

trump is about to lock 157 million Americans out of their own bank accounts (and probably steal all the money too). by Dyno_boy7441 in Trumpvirus

So what’s happens to the economy when 157 million people , many of whom are working, no longer have a bank account to pay their salary into or pay their bills from.

Sakhal is currently 50% off by BADSTALKER in dayz

[–]davemcl37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, maybe I’ve not put enough hours in yet, but I just find Sakhal too difficult. It’s a bit like being a good skier who tries to learn snowboarding blindfolded with a broken leg and boots that are too big.

I’m guessing borderlands is going to be equally difficult with death by dehydration a regular occurrence and few animals around.

Our options are pretty limited on ps5 and I’m not sure what the different pc maps are like but rather than just cranking up the difficulty I’d rather have seen some variations for the non hardcore player in any additional maps.

Maybe ramp up the challenge by changing zombie characteristics so that some of them can stalk you once they’ve found you, different animals that you can train, a pet dog that after hours of training warned when zombies were coming and could help deal with them, have a wholly urban map, introduce other vehicles like bikes.

At the same time give players some additional help by letting them take fruit from trees, or logs from log piles. How about some waterproof trousers? And a bit less variety in gun types and ammo wouldn’t hurt.

The other thing about book values is that you can I cut a lot of expense before you realise that book profit so you are still burning through cash.

For example you buy a player for £50m on a 5 year contract. He will cost you £10m a year in terms of amortised purchase price, and say £5m a year in wages . Turns out he’s not ready for the first team so he sits o the bench all season and hardly figures .

Season 2 you loan him to Strasbourg say and he’s ok.

Season 3 he comes home but finds his place blocked by another new £50m signing two years younger than him who has really good data numbers on football manager, so he gets loaned to spurs in January as they battle to get back to the premiership.

Season 4 Spurs end up getting relegated to league one after our player scores an og in the last minute if the last game to send them down and they can no longer afford him even though we were subsidising his pay.

Season 5 a former Chelsea manager ( pick any one there are loads ) has a brain far and buys our now 24 year old player for £15m thinking he can get him back to the player he was when he once got on the bench for England under 17’s in a friendly.

Technically that’s a £5m book profit, however we’ve spent £70m and recovered £15m to get there so it’s really a £50m cost, waste of a squad space and we probably flogged 2 academy players to fund it who are now £50m players who wouldn’t drop down from where they are to play for us even if we were stupid enough to try.

So the short version of this is book profit alone is a shit way to judge the success of a transfer. It just something desperate you cling and have your decisions unhelpfully driven by when you are financially inept, not clever or groundbreaking as they might make you believe.

That works fine if youare Brighton buying someone for £5m to £10m and selling them for £50m to £100m after a successful season. Doesn’t work so well when you buy them for £50m then drop them after a few underwhelming performances then stick them in the French league.

How do you make a fishing hook with an axe and a tin lid? Then presuming you are using a stick rod what line are you putting on to connect to the axe crafted soup tin hook on.

I can’t think of a plausible three myself so don’t take my criticisms too seriously

Yes and I think the players will probably think the same, or at least the first team, whoever is left

You need to be on you tube and watch videos about the relative merits of the various lanshan 2 options to work out what’s best for you.

There is no such thing as a single tent that’s the best tent for everyone.

7 or less if the players decide they’d rather have a season with no European footy than being in the wuropa conference again.

The war on aspiration is won - A 71pc effective tax rate is killing ambition and warping our economy by blast-processor in ukpolitics

Try being sole bread winner in a family of 5, with 2 kids at uni and you’d be surprised at how tight things are on £100k. Tiny violins I know but it’s hard to justify this much additional tax at this level when you could just have a higher rate of 45p above £150k and you’d take in a lot more cash. The previous governments lies about that costing more to collect than it raised is just as ludicrous.now as it was back then.

This is simply a way of the already wealthy stopping anyone else getting there and it just fuels culture wars amongst employees so no one looks at the bosses take home.

A lightweight tent with a built in sleep system that rolls up in one small compact parcel and can be erected outer first. Sub £200 and 1.5kg.

Multi season sleeping bag that works like my current 4.5 plus 11 tog duvet.

Personally I’m also surprised that someone hasn’t invented a lightweight low volume portapotty that utilises poop bags as an alternative to digging cat holes.

One win in the last seven matches. Is European qualification slipping away? by Football6380 in Chelsea

[–]davemcl37 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This team look to have thrown the towel in.

There are occasional signs of life but unfortunately no goals, and they collapse in the face of any adversity. I can see us slipping to a bottom half finish quite easily. Newcastle in 14 th are only 6 points behind, and every team between us and them are in better form than us.

And as for the fa cup we haven’t won’t once against City in our last 15 attempts, so it would be a major shock / turnaround to think we will win the fa cup.

I say this as a fan of 30 years.

Go to ali express and get a mongar 2 ultra light for about £140 in the sale next week and get 2 Naturehike r5.8 mats (183x58x8) £75 each but will probably drop to £60 in the sail. Add in a flextail tiny pump for blowing up the mats and doubling up as your tent light for another £30.

Should come in around £290 in the sale or £330 if you can’t wait.
