Am I alone in thinking he shouldn’t even be in charge of a pack of crayons?
Thought I’d break out a conversation from the older England threads.
I have to say if I was in a penalty shoot out there are only two EPL keepers I’d want on my side; Martinez and Pickford. And JP is also pretty handy at the whole saving and defence organising thing.
On the other hand, he has...
Simple question. Given the news about Ken on another thread, do NSC believe the NHS in its current form is fit for purpose?

Since we're talking about Potter and also about the legends night at the Theatre Royal, let's get NSC's opinion on this.
One of the famous things about the Potter era was that we never quite matched our xG with real goals. There were some good debates on here about whether you could...

Decent article this, and a warning that even the biggest, most successful clubs are never actually that far from the edge.
We’ve just made £120 million profit, are widely regarded by football writers as “well run” and have a long term plan to be successful.
Surely that’s enough for working class fans paying hundreds of pounds a month to follow us all over the country? :shrug:

Made this point on the FA Cup thread but to me it warrants its own discussion.
In my lifetime three law changes have made the game better to watch by a huge degree. They are the back pass law change, three points for a win and changing offside so you are on if you’re level.
VAR is regressing...
New rules to be trialled at junior level apparently to replace the never enforced six second rule.
Essentially:
8 seconds to release always enforced.
Signalled ref countdown from 5 seconds.
Indirect free kick replaced with either a throw or corner to the other team.
Keeper warned on first...
Just been asked this by youngest GB (who was grinning in the certain knowledge I wouldn’t know what she was on about).
It marks the first time I’ve been totally at a loss to understand anything in a sentence a young person has said to me, in context.
Has this happened to you yet? If so what...
Didn’t hear us at all today. Normally we’re one of the best away fans for singing and atmosphere, though it has been going downhill a bit this season.
Those who went - was this just the telly & it was ok in the ground?
Anyone else think the same from telly / radio?
If it was quieter was the...
Seen a few posts on here about financial assistance for the lads who were stabbed in Rome.
While Jack was fully insured and is not out of pocket Andy wasn’t and has incurred costs for stolen goods and lost passport.
I’m going to set up a gofundme page for NSC to help out but I need a few...
With strikes due on the Friday after Roma please post if you;
a) want to share a cab to an airport
b) have a booked cab to share to an airport
c) know any good flight details via somewhere
d) want to offer a lift in a hire car or want to see if someone wants to share a car hire cost / driving...
