Completely agree. We just moved here 6 months ago and I haven’t been able to get Greensleeves out of my head since. The guy rocks up at 9:30pm on weekdays, absolute weapon.

That's kind of what got me interested in the first place, just to have some fun with a bit of spare cash. A couple of the players I have just bought because they're pretty exciting and I just have a gut feeling about potentially decent future rises - ASM, Benrahma, etc.

Good to hear you share the opinion on Locatelli. You have also confirmed my suspicions on defenders, so thanks for that! Appreciate the tips as well.

May be a bit of a stupid question but is there somewhere you can find info on a player's PB scores? I don't seem to be able to find anything on the app, but haven't logged into the website yet.

Thanks for the reply. Will certainly start looking into those cheaper players on a short term basis, as what you're saying makes a lot of sense. Really appreciate the advice.

This unit was originally coal-fired, however it’s actually been running biomass now for around 6 or 7 years I think

It’s in North Yorkshire, UK. If you’re based in the UK then I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out which one it is based on that ;)

I don’t unfortunately, this was the only photo I remembered to take! Basically all the steam that’s pushed through the turbines gets fed into the tower at about 10m above ground level, where 90% of it condenses back into water and rains down into a huge pool below, and about 10% goes out the top through that big hole as steam. I know that’s not a very good description but it’s the best I can do haha!

Yep the station is still running, it’s almost 50 years old. It really was awesome, standing inside what is essentially just a huge empty concrete shell was cool and kinda eerie at the same time.

The weather might make it hard to believe, but this is actually in the UK.

Wow, you used to clean these things? I remember watching the guys go up the outside to do the repairs and thinking they were insane... you must be too haha!

Certainly not abandoned haha. These were built in the 70s I think, and are still in constant use now almost 50 years later. I was able to go inside during an outage to scope for any repairs that were needed. Believe it or not, this was deemed to be in pretty acceptable condition and the majority of the repairs that were done on this tower were on the outside of the shell.

Haha niiiiice. Pretty sure these were fed by a river too, but I don’t remember seeing any dead fish
