  1. A really frustrating derby but good win in the end (that should have been much more comfortable) and pretty much seals top 4 barring a massive collapse.  Atmosphere in the stadium really weird, totally unlike the previous 2 derbies I've been at. 

    Carrasco is an absolute baller, just always loads of fun to watch. Griezmann absolutely can't buy a goal just now as well. 

  2. Well worth getting up in the middle of the night for. Absolute masterclass and even Bivol winning 115-113 on all cards was an attempted robbery - I had it 10-2. 

    Absolutely dominated behind the jab, lovely left hook when needed and peppered him with the straight right all night. Delicious interview after as well. 

  3. Yeah mate, will most likely be absolutely roasting! I'll be honest, Madrid isn't really much of a beer hall or garden place, it's more lots of terraces out the front of pubs, rooftops and stuff.

    Let us know how many of you and what area (central I guess?) and I'll fire you a bunch of decent ideas for eating, boozing and daytime stuff. I presume it's just a weekend visit yeah?

    The second, regarding societal issues. That's far too generous. It's been pointed out, you don't get bottles thrown at darts, horse racing or rugby. Throwing bottles at players is not a societal issue, it's a very narrow specific one.

    Not picking out your posts in general, but have you ever seen Aidy Lewis walk ons in Glasgow for the Premier League in darts? He gets absolutely pelted. Or any of the massive scraps there has been (UK wide) at horse racing? 

    I personally think the most sensible solution is the one posted by VT a few pages back - it wouldn't be difficult to categorise games and sell alcohol based on that. For smaller clubs especially, it would be an excellent extra source of revenue with very little risk.

  5. El Classico tonight. Barca in good form but Real have won the last five. Needs a Barca win and Sevilla to beat Real Sociedad to have even the smallest chance of a title race.

    Atleti won their fifth league game in a row last night, Simeone finally seeming to find his favoured set up this year. Reinildo coming back and players like Griezmann and Gimenez coming back to fitness no doubt helping too.

  6. As much as Steve Bunce is mental, he had it bang on about that fight. Two Scottish level boys giving it their best. Fair play to them.

    Sunny Edwards was magnificent last night. A superb performance where he dropped only a couple of rounds where he seemed to coast. He is a genuinely top tier talent IMO, even if he is a total bellend. Shame there was about 3 people there.

    Psychics are scum.  I know someone who had a traumatic bereavement and one of their 'friends' bought them a consultation with a psychic to 'talk to' the person that just died.  Absolutely fucking ghouls.  They were probably hoping the police, in desperation, agreed to speak to them so they could publicise their business by saying they've consulted with police on missing person investigations.

    Absolutely. One of the only time I'll agree with ICTory Chris

    A beauTiful thread filled with heroes. So jealous of all of you. I'm due to fly back to Scotland on Wed and have a first T (followed by many more) in two years. Pray for me that all the requisite tests come back negative. 

    We made it, broThers. Every test negative, resulting in a first T in two years whilst having a Christmas Eve pint with the old man on his birthday. Life could not be beTTer.

    As well handing real madrid the title already

    Aye, derby next week should pretty much settle it unless Sevilla somehow put something together. Savic going off injured another disaster for Atleti given he is about the only defender with pass marks this season.

  10. Went to Atleti-Mallorca today. Combo of not feeling amazing and it being the coldest I've been in years meant I left with about 15 mins left. At the time, Atleti were 1 up. Finished 2-1 Mallorca. Atleti slowly slipping out the title race with a bunch of abysmal performances over the last few weeks.
