Really happy with the Lions pick. He seems both a baller and an all round top dude. 

Khan in a neck brace! Hahahaha

Happy Handegg Draft Evening!

Still an outstanding effort for Luxembourg to get as far as they did. They may be more fortunate next time if they can keep the effort up. 

Football Manager tells me that that's a pretty decent squad... haha

Rashford is a wide forward though and Solanke isn't. So Solanke needs to score more than Kane, Watkins and Toney.

He's averaging 0.53 goals per game vs Toney's 0.44. 

How many more goals does Dominic Solanke have to score to get a call up? (he has more than double Rashford's total).

Anyone watch The Rig, on Amazon Prime? Thought the acting was a lot better than the plot, which sort of didn’t resolve anything. But not like in a cliffhanger kind of way, but more like a “we don’t really know where we’re going with this” kind of way.

Been given a second season though, so that’s nice.

I thought it was better than the CGI affects let it on to be. 

Also watched a couple of films for the first time in a while, the other day:

Barbie 3/5.

Decent-to-good throughout with some nice highlights.
 

Poor Things 4.5/5

Absolutely bonkers, beautifully shot and Emma Stone deserved her award for the performance. 

New Pelican EP is decent. 

My current top 10. Mostly quite heavy stuff, though #1 is quite the exception. 

EDIT: 

Top 10 EPs/Short Albums so far: 

Brentford 1 vs. 2  Chelsea (Sat 3pm)
Everton 1  vs. 2 West Ham (Sat 3pm)
Fulham 2 vs. 2 Brighton (Sat 3pm)
Luton 1 vs. 3  Aston Villa (Sat 5.30pm, Sky)
Man City 3  vs. 2 Man Utd (Sun 3.30pm, Sky)

Just finished Prime's Mr & Mrs Smith - thought it was very good with an excellent finale!

This could get ugly for Sheff Utd.

It already is. 

In other news, how shit must Burnley be to be only above us on goal difference... 

Also, from https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/sheffield-united: 

Glad we got this one sorted. Liverpool and Brighton were apparently both sniffing around. Good to get some young talent locked down for a little while. He'll probably be starting next year in the Champ. 

Aston Villa 3 vs. 0 Nottm Forest (Sat 3pm)
Crystal Palace 2  vs. 0  Burnley (Sat 3pm)
Man Utd 3 vs. 0 Fulham (Sat 3pm)
Bournemouth 1 vs. 3  Man City (Sat 5.30pm, Sky)
Arsenal 2 vs. 1  Newcastle (Sat 8pm, TNT)

I really enjoyed The Marvels tbh, especially more second time around (saw it at the cinema as well as on D+). 

The Iron Claw is so fucking good. Also, predictably its a heavy hitter and one of the saddest things I've seen in years. 

Brentford 1 vs. 3  Liverpool (Sat 12.30pm, TNT)
Newcastle 2  vs. 1  Bournemouth (Sat 3pm)
Nottm Forest 1 vs. 2 West Ham (Sat 3pm)
Man City 3 vs. 2 Chelsea (Sat 5.30pm, Sky)
Sheff Utd 1  vs. 3  Brighton (Sun 2pm, Sky)

We won a game! 

Fulham 2 vs. 1 Bournemouth (Sat 3pm)
Luton 3 vs. 0 Sheff Utd (Sat 3pm)
Nottm Forest 1 vs.  2 Newcastle (Sat 5.30pm, Sky)
