    [TV] Favourite Black Mirror Episode

    That is a good episode for sure. Nosedive is also pretty decent. I just liked Loch Henry because it was so utterly chilling. San Junipero is definitely watchable regardless of your mood though.

    [TV] Favourite Black Mirror Episode

    So Black Mirror series seven is available from today. In honour of this momentous occasion, what is your favourite episode from previous series? There have been some good ones (and some crap), but my favourite has to be Loch Henry from series 6. What say you?

    [Politics] Gary's Economics

    Well, that puts you at odds with the UK government's Office of Budget Responsibility in 2021, which calculated that Brexit would cost 4% of GDP per annum over the long term. Maybe you'd accept the research from the Campaign for European Reform, which found that UK goods trade was 11.2% lower in...

    [Other Sport] Birmingham City Football Club

    I'm not suggesting for one minute that Birmingham have ever been a small club, but a lot of what you say needs fact checking. "They used to regularly get 50k in the 70s". Not really - that is like saying we regularly used to get 30k in the 70s. We (and they) had a handful of gates over those...

    [Other Sport] Birmingham City Football Club

    Exactly. It's got nothing to do with relegation, and everything to do with being able to jizz £25m on players- including £11m on Jay Stansfield. In League One FFS! They are also talking about building a 62,000 stadium. It'll be interesting to see how close they ever get to filling it if...

    [Politics] Gary's Economics

    Well said BadFish, although your original post didn't need explaining to most of us - the gist of what you were saying was quite clear. You have to remember that ds-burnley is a red wall gammony Brexit-apologist, so when he says things like employer's NICs is a daft idea, please realise that he...

    [News] Universal Theme Park - UK

    Interesting that you say the fast passes are necessary because that ought not to be the case. 15 years ago, Disney's fast track scheme was excellent - you could fast track 2 or 3 key rides for free by booking a time slot, and that was it. I suspect that has changed now, as there is obviously...

    [News] Universal Theme Park - UK

    I bow to your greater knowledge, but my post is based purely on my own experience. Back in the day, we went to all of them in this country regularly (had a Merlin pass for 3 successive years) as well as Florida - and in the summer I can categorically say that while the queues at our parks were...

    Not sure about that. Richmond and North Melbourne both looked dog shit last weekend.

    [News] Universal Theme Park - UK

    There's no doubt that the Universal parks in the States are immense (I've been to both Florida and California) BUT I think that is unfair. With Universal, the queues are far, far worse than you'll ever see at our parks (and they are bad enough) UNLESS you literally drop hundreds of pounds on...

    [Football] The Championship.

    Good luck there. I had no idea Donny were as high up as they are, and I guess Walsall's form falling off a cliff has meant they've got as good a chance of winning it as 3 or 4 other clubs.

    [Football] The Championship.

    Well no, not really. I mean everyone said that when they went 5 points clear 3 weeks ago. They then won one game in 5 and found themselves in 3rd again. So is Sheffield. Burnley is just a dreary place to visit. Anyway I reckon Sheff Utd will miss out, simply because they're the ones I'd...

    [Football] Champions League 2024/25

    They are, but they really don't almost make RM seem likeable. I'd rather Arsenal went through before being knocked out by a more likeable team.

    [Football] The Championship.

    Sake. Leeds winning, Sheff Utd losing and annoyingly Cardiff behind too.

    Yes, this. And of course come on Cov tomorrow.

    [Albion] Will Leicester score (a goal) Saturday?

    Last time they scored a league goal at home was against us, so obviously we know how to oblige them.

    [Albion] Can we forget the Champions League now?

    There is no chance of that happening FFS. If we finish 3rd then I'll give you TWENTY FIVE PEE.

    [News] Is Trump a Russian stooge or just a very dangerous America 1st expansionist?

    Although this doesn't apply to us because we're out of the evil EU and have the sPeSHaL reLaTioNsHiP.
