I walk dogs for a living, I love gaming, I'm obsessed with football โšฝ #MUFC and music (mostly metal ๐Ÿค˜) I used to be really into politics, but now I'd rather stream Football Manager. Am I getting old? #DysguCymraeg ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ

Really quite angry with the lack of intensity and application from Cymru today. Happy to get the win, don't get me wrong, but that was way below standard from what we've come to expect from a Craig Bellamy side. Lawlor great debut though and the subs understood the task at hand thankfully.

Don't know the guy, so can't judge, but definitely want him out, worst transfer we've ever had?

Paying some of his wages for the rest of this season is way cheaper than keeping him on full wages though, doubt it's a deal breaker

It's not even selling them early, they're between 19 and 21 so they either need first team football through a loan or they need to be sold. That's football.

Multi-club ownerships should be outlawed. Rules are easily bypassed with cosmetic changes. Clubs overspending should be punished. Yet they can bypass this with cosmetic changes - such as selling their women's team to themselves. Football has no interest in regulation or regulation when it matters.

Perfect, 2 months in when they're fully in the flow is going to be a great show.

We had Alanis Morrisette here on Wednesday,then Slayer on Thursday. Didn't realise Oasis was tonight, what a busy week for gigs in Cardiff! When is your Oasis gig?

Definitely want to go down this route long term, but costs are prohibitive. Hopefully there'll be a grant for solar so there is for heat pumps soon

Sounds great! Keeping it simple works for me too, tbh most dressings I do are oil, lemon/lime and then a little bit of sweetness because I'm a sucker for sweet!

Looks great, what did you use for the dressing?

Brutal. Sorry you're going through that, being ghosted is a really shitty experience I've gone through as well. Sorry if this sounds judgemental, but it does sound like you're better off without someone who can turn on a dime like that in your life long term. Hope you power through the rough time ๐Ÿ’ช

That's the one! I'm honestly surprised they're not a thing here as well given the British love of sandwiches.

Club sandwiches, one of the things I miss the most about North America! Is it dumb to ask if they mean the same thing in the US as they do in Canada?

Sad about this but not too much as drastic action is needed now & thereโ€™s no room for sentimentality.

The kid definitely has โ€˜it.โ€™ I think heโ€™s been a victim of being over-played & expected to be 1 of our better players when ideally heโ€™d be exciting young back up to an established quality player.
