    GoT is a good example of why I normally hold off on watching something (usually American) straight away. I've heard numerous people saying it was an awful ending and as a result I probably won't ever bother. The same way I haven't bothered with Lost. That and the fact American will drop shows in the blink of an eye makes me cautious of diving in straight away.

    Though not having FB or Twitter means I'm not usually one for reading spoilers so will watch someone from the off if it takes my fancy.

    Watch them both. My favourite two series ever. Lost probably edges it for me.

    I like films like Children of Men and just watched a short series called something like ‘Tribes of Europa’ which was an easy watch.

    Brilliant film. One of those that gets you in the mindset of "I wonder what I'd do in that situation". Well worth a watch.

    Watched it last night. Not bad, thanks for the recommendation.

    Hello friends,
     
    Anyone got any good dystopian film recommendations they’ve seen on Netflix recently?

    Watched The Platform yet?

    Is "The Last of the Mohicans" the best movie ever?

    I was once talking to the local drunk in the pub about the soundtrack to this film.  The guy was off his tits and told me he could play it all on the bagpipes (note this conversation took place in Lancashire, not somewhere you ever expect anyone to have seen any bagpipes let alone claim to play them).

    The guy could tell I thought he was full of shit and I went to sit down with my drink. He finished his whisky and went out to the car park and into the boot of his vehicle. Two minutes later he walked back in the pub and played The Gael note perfect! Nobody in the pub has ever heard live bagpipes before, including myself. I didn’t realise how loud they were!

    Turns our he was some sort bagpiper in the army and had performed all over the world and in front of people like the Queen.

    What do they mean by 'issuing warnings to those not wearing masks'? There's no requirement to do so outdoors. 

    True.

     

    Not really essential for them to be out there though so they should have just got them done for that instead.

    Wasn't cowardly last week though?? 

    Which game are you in about? I didn’t see any interview last week but assuming it was after another load of garbage then yes, that was pretty cowardly as well.

     

    Not half as cowardly as hiding in the dressing room after that shite yesterday.

    The whole fuckin team threw in the towel. Can't pass. Frightened to hold on to the ball . Even Inglis just about missed that second goal as he was so nervous . 

    I genuinely thought you were either on the board or after a position on the board these past few months the way you’ve been defending them and the team.

     

    Seems you’ve finally admitted to seeing what everyone else has seen for the last God knows how long.

    I am as frustrated as anyone here regarding results and performances , but it seems the players  themselves have escaped the brunt of the criticism.  Surely they have to realise that they too have to step up to the challenge before them.  

     

    Absolutely, the vast majority aren’t good enough though. Nor have most of the players recruited in the last 4 years or so for the level they have been asked to play at.

    Granted the board don’t choose the players, that’s down to the manager in post at the time. The board do pick the manager and their last few selections have been nowhere near good enough and turned the club into a laughing stock.

    What have been the changes in the boardroom over these last five years or so?

    It’s mind boggling how what was such a well run club for years can end up in this position and dishing out 3 year contracts to a man with 90 minutes experience.

    The Bridge is worth a watch.

    It’s basically a documentary about people who jump from the Golden Gate Bridge. Interviews with their family and friends. Also interviews with one or two who actually survived their attempt.

    Never saw many crowds above 200 during my  9 week Northern League conquest, some brilliant clubs,places,people, the guidelines are clear so hopefully we can get back to watching asap.

    I went to Sunderland West End last season to watch my local team play them in the cup. What a strange place that was to visit!

    I think we’ve drawn Bedlington in the cup this year so will be going up for that one too.
