Definitely!

It pains me to say it but their run under Glasner has been pretty incredible. They are probably going to be very strong next year and struggle to hold on to him, looks like a very capable manager

I believe its Survivor according to Richard Osman massively successful in America.

No point in getting upset, it seems like an amicable end to an inevitable conclusion. If you're sat with you girlfriend planning your holiday to the south of france and she's banging on about going to the carribean with the rich fella next door you have three options. 1. Up the creditcard limit...

A sad end to arguably the best period in our history. RDZ was a revelation but as soon as he started publicly calling out the club the writing was on the wall imo. We'll never know what was said in their meeting but I suspect bloom didn't want to back a manager who he felt was already planning...

I used to reference the TIPS acronym but was told it was a myth. Apparently it comes from an old phrase 'take the tip' which was a like a bribe to a servant or worker. I spent hours googling it some years back but never really found the true meaning

Happy to tip when there's service involved but if it's a simple at the bar transaction I very rarely tip unless the server has contributed to my evening beyond just serving pints. I'm an advocate of gratuity but for me it involves a change in the way the UK approaches hospitality. Serve me at...

That's an incredible Acer. I have the same variety but much, much smaller!

It's been a very wet spring in dorset with a big downpour today. Has anyone else's garden seen big growth this year? Our Acers and Hakonechloa Macras have been particularly vigorous.

Thr PL is brutal.You can be in decent form, play really well yet get sucker punched by a team that's offered nothing all game. Almost all teams have at least one top, top player who can punish you. In the championship, if you're a decent team regardless of your stature (within reason) you can...

I enjoy having a mown lawn surrounded by lots of borders packed with plants for pollinators and wildlife personally. I understand the benefits of having a meadow or natural lawn but I spend hours each month to have a garden I can spend time in, much of that is on our well kept lawn. We have...

I think his lack of enthusiasm is linked to his stock plunging in such a short period of time. I can't think of another example of a manager who has had so much smoke blown up their backside to then go on such an awful run. The buzz we saw a few months ago has gone down to the lowest in our PL...

I certainly don't want him sacked but I suspect Bloom will be lookikg at his options. I feel if it hadn't been for all press conference moans Bloom would back him but if the rumours of a big spend this summer are true he'll want some sort of commitment

I'd rather be stuck on a long haul flight next to a Palace fan than an entitled Chelsea fan tbh. There's no team I'd rather beat than Palace and the no match that makes me more nervous but We have far more in common with them than a club like Chelsea and their intolerable fans
