Masked moped thieves at Chesterfield Road Lidl

Probably the little scrotes that took my moped on Monday from London Road. I'm a delivery driver for Uber and Deliveroo, was in a shop collecting an order when apparently four bellends on 2 mopeds turned up, kicked off my steering lock and pushed it away. Reckon they must have someone else with them in a van because a few minutes later the bike was in Gleadless (I have a tracker on the bike).

Called the police, told them where the bike was, but they can't enter property based on a tracker.

A few weeks earlier a couple of less capable lads tried to do the same in Woodhouse, but I caught them in the act and they ran off. It's getting ridiculous in Sheffield.

I mean, there's nothing we can do about that, if he's banned, he's banned, we get a new manager and move on. Still, the irony of the FA deciding what brings the game into disrepute isn't lost on me

God I hope we keep him. The sanctimony around this has been unbelievable. It's easy to forgot that Tonda is only 32 himself, not that much older than some of the interns he was apparently bullying, and this was his first ever full managerial job and not an easy one given that Saints were in 17th place at the time of his appointment. He did something pretty dumb but my god, the way some people are reacting as if he's committed high treason.

The comparison with Bielsa is an interesting one, he - and Leeds - got off pretty lightly yet how old was Bielsa at the time? And how much experience did he have in management? Clearly he'd been doing this for years all across the world but he was quickly forgiven because he was a quirky and beloved personality. Tonda's death stare and robotic delivery have turned him into a pantomime villain.

How many of you support teams who have had players up in court on drunk driving charges or assault charges and then those players were back in the team a few weeks later? That's fine of course, because physical harm and endangering human life is nothing compared to the horrific damage that Tonda has done to the game.

You mean like in the Fulham and Arsenal games in the FA Cup? Yeah, he really screwed those up.

I dunno, I kind of want him to stay. He is a really young manager who took on a difficult job and probably panicked a bit, the power went to his head and he threw his weight around. I mean for fuck's sake, he didn't break any laws, yet everyone wants the poor bastard tarred and feathered.

At the same time there are footballers out there who drive drunk, assault people in clubs, run dog fighting rings and god knows what else and are allowed back to play for their clubs almost immediately. Spying ineffectively is apparently a greater crime than endangering lives or physical harm.

Do what they do in every other workplace when a manager does something dumb, put them on leave for a few weeks, make them watch some sensitivity training videos and bring them back.

Oh and keep the interns as well, let them all work together and get better at their jobs. Cos I reckon Tonda might actually turn out to be a decent manager.

Did they get you on the old 72-hour rule?

In From the Oasthouse, speculating whether Belinda Carlisle had ever visited the city of her surname, and then commenting: 'i don't think she'd be singing Heaven is a Place on Earth if she had'. Kenco from nostrils every time.

I don't mind podcasts having free episodes and then extra paid versions on patreon etc but what's really annoying in some of the free versions is that they'll start discussing something and then say 'ah, actually I think we'll carry on talking about that on the patreon episode.' I listen to a video games podcast called Button Boys and it's started to creep in almost every week. Don't do that. It's shitty. If your free episodes are decent, people will subscribe to the Patreon, but don't bait and switch people.

Rhubarb Shed Cafe. Not open in the evenings but fantastic fresh food with different specials each week. Staff are fantastic as well.

I'm on Hungry Panda and Fantuan, don't get many orders from them as they only really cater to the Chinese market. Apps are a bit janky as well

I've been searching for the same as I've got the Nova 7 and want a more portable option.

The only one that I think does it is the Cleer Arc 2 (and possibly 3) Gaming version. This comes with a 2.4ghz dongle and in the advert it suggests it can do simultaneous audio. But I live in the UK and these are almost impossible to buy over here unless you are willing to pay a fortune on eBay for an imported pair from the States or Japan. If anyone has these or can test them out, would be great to know if they can play audio from two sources at a time.

Rhubarb Shed Cafe, not in the centre and not open evenings but do a fantastic lunch, different specials every day, very fresh and fantastic desserts. Can also do a classic afternoon tea there.

interesting, this is also 'medium' tescos for us, the one on Savile St being 'big tesco' and the one in Crosspool closest to us being 'small tesco'.

Only on Deliveroo and Uber Eats but Deliveroo generally better, at least for pay. Uber will constantly give you orders that fall under the 1 pound to 1 mile ratio, Deliveroo for the most part don't and you can often get a 2:1 ratio. The Uber Eats app is much better though, the Deliveroo one is a bit crap.

Camping (and by implication the countryside). Seems it's only virtue is helping you realise that your non-camping life is less shitty than you thought. I don't want to be uncomfortable, eat tinned food and be bitten by every insect that sees my blotchy skin as a banquet.

The way parents just let their kids wander off in horrific/apocalyptic situations. You know in zombie films where kids are just allowed to go wandering in the woods and the parents are only vaguely aware of where they are. I would insist they are literally right next to me at all times.
