It seems the Spanish electricity workers have taken an extended siesta, or something more nefarious, and as a result the whole power network has gone down, affecting Portugal too.

Unsurprisingly causing CHAOS.
My Dad got a new car recently (a MG HS). Since getting it the radio hasn't worked properly. He cant store DAB pre-sets and the FM radio has no RDS. Obviously these aren't major issues but more annoying.
Apparently, this is a known issue and a result of the Ukraine/Covid chip issues, i.e. the...
I'm in the market for buying a 2nd hand car, current car on its last legs, and new family member due to arrive in a few months...
Have identified what we would like and there is a potential option but it's being sold from a private seller, rather than a dealer or garage.
I'm a bit skeptical...
Just in case anyone had forgot and was getting carried away enjoying their summer holidays, tonight at 8pm the 23/24 season kicks off in spectacular fashion with Massive taking on the third best team on the south coast.
I remember the fantastic mobile phone light show Hillsborough put on in the...
Came across this interesting analysis of every PL squad consistency over the season, which "tells us how similar each team looked every time it took the pitch".

As might be expected, correlation between squad consistency and...
Ref was useless. Two ManUtds should have seen red, the bar for fouls was regularly higher for us, tonight VAR saved us, I bet the ref really was struggling having to give a penalty.
Some people say we only complain about the ref when we lose, not tonight.
I am increasingly seeing more and more people make references to some sort of global conspiracy, led by the World Economic Forum, seemingly with an end goal of a world where woman are in charge, men are weak and we cant have or do anything apart from eat vegetables at home. I am seeing it today...
I think it is fair to say that in the past few years we have had a series of exemplar PMs running the country, we have even had three in the past few weeks!
From Dave calling a Brexit referendum and then f***ing off, to May providing extremely strong and stable Government when most needed, to...
It's really rather good. So far P5,W2,D2,L1, 8 points, 1.6 ppg.
1. Draw against Liverpool
2. Draw against Chelsea
3. Loss against Man U
3. Win against Arsenal
5. Win against Spurs
6. XYZ against Man C
Yes Gross did a poor penalty, but there's a flare just been thrown at you, that's still going off a few meters from the goal.
How has the ref concluded everything is fine, and safe, and to play on? :mad:
One of the highlights from yesterday was when Maupay spotted the ref had dropped his white spray and took it upon himself to mark the spot for the free kick, it was so instinctual took to the job like a duck to water. Clearly a natural.
Has anyone got any information, or vague ideas/thoughts as to what will happen with season ticket renewals?
Last year the season ticket renewal date was 11th March and we had already been asked what we would like to do. Obviously this year is different though!
Also, is anyone else's season...
A very unorthodox starting 11 today, although possibly not if you are Graham Potter. For him this may have been the best team to get a result.
If you were the manager would you be of a similar mind set and regularly change the starting 11 on a match by match basis, as you see fit, or try and...
I think there was a poll on this a couple of months ago now, but a few things have changed since then.
Edit: I definitely want to go so hopefully get a ticket through one of the options...
What’s your favourite album of the 21st century?
Mine is this:
The Decline of British Sea Power by British Sea Power
Not only are all the songs excellent, but it works as an LP too. More than that though is that I have been to numerous BSP gigs in all kinds of places over the past 17 years...
Old tap was dripping and it was impossible to remove the valve so bought a new tap set.
Have just removed the old tap but the new tap has been supplied with different connector hoses.
The old ones connected to a stop valve, I can't connect the new ones to this and I can't swap over the hoses...
