Was thinking we've had best ever threads before but we haven't had it skills based e.g.
Penalty taker
Finisher
1 on 1 defender
Free kick taker - curl
Free kick taker - power
1 on 1 attacker
Dribbler
Long range passer
In the air
Long range shooter
Ball control
Positioning
Etc.
Obviously a lot...
Watching with the Mrs. Took a disliking to that Nigel bloke, comes across as a bit of a knob.
Said to her, i bet he's a Palace fan. Just googled it and he only bloody is.:lolol:
I reckon I can spot a stripey from miles off. In fairness, i could have probably picked it from his name.
The media narrative would have you believe that unearthing these gems of players is all down to our excellent scouting.
My view is that what we do well is scout players well, support and develop them well and then coach them well.
I think of Caicedo and Mitoma as obvious examples of scouting...
I've been thinking a lot about the future recently and what it'll mean for the United Kingdom and the world on the back of opening up a new coal mine and de-regulating the banks and the overall narrative around what this means. I'm trying to avoid the sensationalist thinking and genuinely...
Seems a long time ago since watching the likes of Munday, Minton and FDM.
Yet I sit here after watching the tail-end of last season a decent pre-season and our first few games thinking (perhaps optimistically and naively) that I havent seen many better coached sides than us.
I'm struggling to...
Not something Potter has used since Newcastle if memory serves. Bit of a throwback but makes for an entertaining game.

Hi all.
Looking at a big chunk of flooring for home renovation. Have used Moduleo before in my study and think its decent compared to Karndean prices but see the prices are now c£40 a sq metre.
Any NSCer in the know who can point me at a better value alternative?
Real wood/engineered is not...
Obviously our awesome scouting team are all over finding a LB at the moment as a) they are awesome and b) at signing defenders.
I've decided to take a punt and say we are targeting and will sign...

Anyone else want a speculative punt...
Do you think we could move away from these terms as a society? They are scornful generalisations used to divide and de-humanise.
Cant we just call people being dicks, dicks?

I think its about time we talked a bit more about the way we defend.
Very impressed last night with the positional awareness and flexibility of this team
And we managed to not concede from set pieces
Biss/Lallana did a great job in filling gaps and balancing our attack
Good signs.
Hi all.
My current car is now 11 years old and due for a replacement and I've had it from it being 4 years old
I'm interested in what people do as i'm not one to switch cars regularly as for me it's A->B comfortably.
I generally buy when 3-5 years old but not sure if this makes the the best...

Not sure how we stumbled on to this topic at the pub the other night but I didn't realise both George Michael AND Nik Kershaw did backing vocals for Elton John on Nikita.
I then hear that John Lennon sang backing vocals on Fame for David Bowie.
*mind blown*
Now I hear them all clear as day...
