    Liverpool FC supporters thread - 2017/18 Season

    Amen to that... Styleless, directionless and toothless. Woke up this morning and googled "is Arne Slot still fired?" just to make sure nothing's changed overnight. Will never *not* be astonished that a manager could have Ali, Virg, Robbo, Ryan, Dom, Florian, Hugo, Mo and Rio in a team and not...

    Liverpool FC supporters thread - 2017/18 Season

    Not gonna lie... a drop of pee came out when I heard the news. Haven't posted here for a while because I've been too busy having Roy Hodgson flashbacks and weekly, 90 minute spells of nausea... Been pretty bleak 'cos I vowed not to watch a minute of Liverpool for the 26/27 season if Arne...

    ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum’ Sets Cast: Ian McKellen and Elijah Wood Officially Return, Plus Jamie Dornan as Aragorn and More

    I think about this more than I should. I'd love it but there would be scale and narrative arc issues... Basically LotR was three movies featuring three primary set pieces, Moria, Helm's Deep, and Pelennor Fields, but Frodo's arc ties them all together. Recon you could leave out the Ainulindalë...

    Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon

    In the Dunk and Egg books, Bloodraven, The Three Eyed Raven from the GoT series is there as a young man, as is four-year-old Walder Frey. There is mention of Aemon Targaryen, or Maester Aemon, who is an old man at the wall when Jon gets there in season one of GoT but that's pretty much it. The...

    Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon

    There are three Dunk and Egg novellas: Three individual and separate stories and I'm guessing each season should cover one in its entirety. Continuity with the two main characters remains, so we'll get the Trial of Seven in season one, presumably Eustace Osgrey and Rohanne Webber for season...

    Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon

    It's been nearly fifteen years since A Dance with Dragons and I kinda gave up on The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring a while ago. If they ever get published it'll be an unexpected surprise. GRRM is supposed to be writing more Dunk and Egg novellas as well. I have more hope for them seeing...

    Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon

    True that... Waving off threads I see the end as they begin and spending a little less time online will do that.

    Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon

    Fleabottom accent, like Davos, check. Baratheons with antlers on their helmets, check. Trial of Seven looking awesome, check. Perfectly cast Egg, check... Will I be watching come January 18th? Check.

    Liverpool FC supporters thread - 2017/18 Season

    Can't remember 'cos we've *never* had a window like this one. Been shouting for the red men since the 80's... Seen club record incomings since Ian Rush and I've never seen anything like this. Sure, Ali and Virg were big individual deals, but never a left wingback, a right wingback, two central...

    A thing I knew with absolute certainty before the draw... Trent at Anfield, and, well...

    Name-drop - who is the most famous person you've met?

    Okay, chronologically. Back through the mists of time I met Frank Williams, Nigel Mansell, Keke Rosberg, Nelson Piquet and Martin Brundle. Family ran PR for Kyalami and we hosted Annie Bradshaw who was the PR Manager for Williams at our home. Just kids then but it meets the requirements of the...

    Not news I was expecting this morning, and it’s certainly not welcomed. RIP Diogo and Andre Thoughts with Rute and the kids. Fsck!
