Re: Controversial Opinions

I’ve found my interest in football boosted by going to lower league games - Aldershot, Alton and Basingstoke, so tiers 5-9. A good atmosphere, a chance to catch up with mates rather than sat in a pub, and great to be out in the fresh air. Yep, I went to Exeter City (v Wycombe) on Boxing Day and lov...

Re: Jurgen Klopp leaving Liverpool (non WHU!)

In The Leaving of Liverpool, the lyric goes "When I return, United we will be". I wonder which United he'll return for.

I don't think it was snide. More a realistic assessment of where Liverpool are when competing against the likes of Man City on transfers.

Re: VPN multiple devices

My basic understanding is when you put a VPN on a device, it only routes traffic for that device. I think you have two options: buy a product that can be put on many devices, or buy a VPN capable/fitted router through which all your home traffic will flow. I don't know that you can put a VPN on any ...

Re: Arsenal vs West Ham United: match thread

Great win and thoroughly deserved, so hopefully no-one takes this the wrong way, but I thought the interviewer was a nob suggesting to Arteta that Rice had a poor game. They had 75% possession and the reason they didn't get anything from the game was f'all to do with Rice. It was their wasted chance...

Harry Low-Block Maguire won't be exposed at all by Moyes' West Ham. Think a loan deal for instance would be a safe bet.

Re: Declan Rice

Genuine question, but what is it about Arsenal that people dislike so much? Over the years, I've seen one or two posters here consistent with their dislike of Arsenal, but I've generally heard less dislike than say: Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs, Millwall. Now all of a sudden, "it would've...

Re: Car Insurance Shocker

My premium (2014 peugeot family car) has just increased from £17/month to £50/month. I thought it was because of a claim my wife had on my insurance last year, but it seems everyone is getting shafted. *****.
