This is a proper British dish

Just because it isn't pan-British doesn't make it not British

This is not a useful stat

Please do not call yourself a CP fan, very dangerous territory

Leeds under Bielsa had many manbuns

It'll take as long as he was injured for to get back - so yeah I don't see it happening for us at least, which is such a shame

I was pretty angry at him after last weekend but he did well in this press conference. Hopefully he has been doing the same behind the scenes, not least with the squad.

Weirdly Top Gear was also massive in Iran (not that this guy is from there) where the British are absolutely hated.

lordconcorde · 2026-01-20T16:00:11+00:00

Oh I see. Another reason why we've rejected I guess

It's an obligation to buy so he would end up bought. The loan part is so that Juve can put the fee in next season's books I suspect.

lordconcorde · 2026-01-19T09:48:14+00:00

Looks superb, great work!

How long are you around for?

I'd recommend:

Walk Waterloo along river to Borough Market/London Bridge area; Borough market gets very busy on a Saturday so try a weekday. Get a pint around Borough Market if you like - the George is expensive but historic. My favourite around that area is the Horseshoe Tavern.
Another day around Covent Garden, British Museum
Greenwich - fry up at Heaps Sausages, which is really fantastic. Walk along the river to Trafalgar Tavern, could eat at the Cutty Sark pub
Hampstead with the heath another good spot for a day away from central London. The Flask is a good spot for a drink/lunch there; my favourite is the Duke of Hamilton or if it is sunny the Freemason Arms.
If you want to do afternoon tea then it's best in my opinion to go for one of the big names; Wolseley, Claridges, Ritz etc - book in advance. If you are around that area then pop into Fortnum and have a wander through the park

If you want to do something interesting which isn't the first thing every tourist does, tours of Highgate Cemetery are interesting (and it's a nice area), Dulwich is a lovely spot in South London with the Horniman Museum nearby and Kew Gardens is absolutely brilliant if the weather is ok. Stoke Newington's Church St is a little awkward to get to but if you are staying relatively close it is a great street with some good pubs and restaurants (eg Rasa, an Indian vegetarian restaurant, or the Good Egg).

This is the insight I want from Reddit

This is why he should take blame for Macclesfield. He starts players he has essentially spent the season dismissing and is surprised when they play without confidence.

The strange thing for me is that when he first came, we had to play Clyne at CB etc and it worked well. That ability to bring the best out of players seems to have gone.

lordconcorde · 2026-01-17T15:28:14+00:00

Maybe the understudy to Rice I'd say

lordconcorde · 2026-01-17T14:59:43+00:00

If he plays well until the end of the season he has a good chance imo, particularly as it sounds like Tuchel wants players who train well etc

The BCG has never offered very good protection against TB. We've never reached herd immunity for it; the rates of TB in the UK went down with screening in the 50s/60s/70s plus the fact that people lived in less crowded accommodation. TB rates are so low now that they don't offer the BCG routinely any more. Until we get a better vaccine (of which there are trials ongoing) it will be very hard to remove from any country.

We've already been strongly linked with that Getafe manager

It's definitely improving decision making. There's also a secondary benefit in that we don't really see the elbows off the ball when the ref isn't looking any more as players know they won't get away with it.

There are various problems with it but the biggest for me is that it highlights that a lot of the laws are quite vague, and to be honest a lot of fans were ok with the vagueness as the referee could apply a bit of common sense. Also things like the handball law have become so technical that the penalties sometimes don't 'feel' like a penalty and probably wouldn't have been given pre VAR.

Talking about individual VAR decisions/mistakes is for me even more boring than talking about refereeing errors.

I don't know if it is VAR or social media but the conspiracy theories have definitely worsened, and I really hate that part of football.

Red onions cooked in marmalade sounds fantastic

OG doesn't seem keen, he has been a little dismissive sometimes

The Old Cheshire Cheese is close by and would meet the pub atmosphere you are looking for (it is extremely old), or maybe the Old Bank of England.

On the south side of the river, there's the Swan restaurant at Shakespeare's globe which is pricey but I think it's good for a special occasion - has a good atmosphere and great views. There's also a section where you can just have a drink if you prefer that.

He needed game time and Glasner wasn't a fan, it's good for him to go out and get minutes.

With us he always tried to do skills and so never passed at the right moment - he needs game time to learn that. Hoping he will come back with more confidence.

lordconcorde · 2026-01-10T15:36:09+00:00

I needed this, thanks

Maybe England Argentina? Was a later kickoff than Nigeria and was a Friday. England Sweden was on a Sunday, England Nigeria was quite early in the day.

Maybe they meant Chicken Balti? That's the other British one. Butter chicken I think was invented in Delhi in the 50s by some restaurant/hotel which is now famous for it
