Terrible, designed by a 5 year old on the Errea website.

First definite redwing sighting a couple of days ago at Walling Fen as well as a couple of little egrets, a grey heron and a great close up view of a buzzard sitting on a hedge top. I imagine they're all drawn to the network of drainage channels in the area.

Anything is better than nowt. But we need experienced, nasty props not youngsters learning their trade. We fell into that trap last season, and I couldn't cope after 62 years with yet another one.

I was watching a YouTube video of different historical maps and one was a map of South East Asia with every bomb dropped by the US plotted on it and the accompanying facts supplied. A quick Internet search reveals that between 1962 and 1973, the US dropped 8 million tons of bombs in Indochina compared with a total of approximately 4 million dropped by all warring nations during the Second World War. Truly shocking statistics.

A little know fact that is glossed over in the majority of history books I read about the battle of Agincourt. From Juliet Barker's book 'Agincourt: The King, the Campaign, the Battle' :- Many of the English and Welsh archers were suffering from dysentry, and were reduced to removing their soiled breeches and undergarments in an attempt to allow nature to take its course more easily ie not wearing anything from the waist down — an option not available to the men-at-arms, encased in their padded steel plate suits, they just had to 'go' in their armour. Grim though the sight of them must have been, the smell was probably worse. Imagine being a French knight,being attacked by naked from the waist down archers, followed by men at arms with poo squelching out of their armour - they don't teach that in history class.

Get Carter is a classic. Ted Lewis, who wrote the novel and was from Barton-upon-Humber, always wanted it to be set in his home area of North Lincolnshire, Scunthorpe in particular. It was Hodges who decided to base it in Newcastle. Not a lot of people know that.

DID YOU SAY BRIAN BLESSED IS TRENDING?

Just thinking how phenomenally stupid some of you look now. Still you keep posting so your skin remains as thick as ever.

In my experience of watching RL and football the worst first games are the ones against newly promoted teams.

Those London shirts look more like training tops,disappointing.

Staying up is the absolute bare minimum with the squad we've put together and money spent. There's a lot of SL and Top End championship players been signed in the last 6 months, and if we miss out on playoffs I think it'll be seen as a failure from everyone at the club. It's obviously going to be much more difficult than last season but the clubs ambitions are clear to see.

That's why in 2019 regulations were brought in that meant manufacturers had to install a system to generate noise in new electric vehicles.

Oh.

Because we still have a good academy if that's your point.

Are you unable to see the myriad images of the redevelopment on this thread or just a moron?

Not only was the music brilliant but they were part of the formation of my political and social views that have not changed from then until now. My favourite Specials song (probably not the best or most influential) was "Stupid Marriage" with Terry as the defendent and Neville Staples as Judge Roughneck.

Just put SKY news on and that was the first story I saw. Absolutely gobsmacked. Just got my Spotify year in review and ‘A Message to you, Rudy’ was in my top 5 most listened to songs. We all get used to the passing of people that were adults when we were young but when it is people of similar age it is sobering. Thanks Terry for the memories.

Ex Specials, Fun Boy Three and Colourfield front man Terry Hall, a massive part of my youth. Gutted

With two experience props like moi moi we compete at the top end of this division, if not we are fighting to get in the play offs. Mr.Hamilton will do the right thing
