Apart from AY being shot this week, a lot of stuff about United seems to be focusing on how boring they are to watch. This appears to come from the Moyes watchers who are awaiting the fall of the Empire. In my opinion United have for the most part been boring in CL matches away from home for some time now when it was more a case of ensuring they didn't lose than having to win. Not attractive to watch, though I actually thought this weeks game was one of their better ones.


As I'm not an avid watcher of other teams in the CL, do you think most group matches are more of an endurance test than entertainment?

Er. No they didn't. Not a poppy in site.

It's a shame that county decided to fold to the lowest of your fans knowing that a silence would be spoilt.

Pretty poor week for the reputation of 'the greatest fans in the world'.

You'd think they'd still respect the dead to be honest. I think that was a poor decision.

Maybe an interesting history lesson for some. Without the famine there may not have been a Glasgow Celtic or indeed Hibernian or Dundee United in Scotland. I'm not advocating disrespecting the dead of the great wars but there are historical reasons involved that make it a complex question as to why some choose to. Personally I think people should be able to keep quiet for a minute as a mark of respect to those who it means something to.


I can't explain the following though:

    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down! 
    • Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).
    • It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.
    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
