Yeah was a proper tense last 10! Exeter could have been down to 14 much earlier, thought Slade was a little lucky.

Considering Exeter were only promoted to the Premiership 10 years ago, it's really impressive they are now champions of Europe.

Not the usual rugby post from me today...but is anyone else interested to see the "Major announcement of exciting news" that NASA is going to be making about the moon? 

I've seen a few rumours that think that the announcement is that they have actually found water on the moon. Which would have huge implications on the 2024 manned missions they are planning.

So NASA have announced that they have found water molecules in the surface of the moon. But really importantly in the sunlit regions, not just the poles of the moon, indicating that the moon has a lot more water than first thought. Which is a big step toward a permanent lunar base.

NASA believe the water most likely got there when a soccer ball landed nearby following a Marvin Johnson cross.

Nah, it was probably Chris Waddle's pen from 1990. 30 years to cross 250,000 miles sounds about right. 😁

 

 

Wait..we're not supposed to be talking about football!

Anyone else keeping tabs on the US election?

Current scoreline: Biden 224 - 213 Trump

However if the remaining 9 states go the same way as last time, it'll end up Biden 255 - 283 Trump.

Just going to take Michigan to flip (currently Trump 49.4% - Biden 48.9%) and it ends Biden 271 - 263 Trump.

I’ve always thought that Trump would get a second term and I’m still convinced that he will, it’ll be close but he’ll get the states that he needs.

It's like our game last night. Really exciting at first, then a bit boring after that...

PA looks sown up for trump, but lots of postal votes and big city votes to count yet, so it could still go blue. I hope so, can't take another 4 years of orange face spouting rubbish.

Yeah I've been keeping tabs throughout the day. Barring any major twists Biden will win in my opinion. Nevada, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan and Maine it looks like he will win.

Wisconsin and Nevada are currently close, but he'll edge it on the postal vote. Earlier today Trump had a 7.5% lead over Biden in Michigan (When 71% votes had been counted), Biden has cut that gap to just 0.5% with 87% of votes counted. Can see the remaining 13% being heavily skewed in Biden's favour.

I think there is too much of a gap between the 2 in Pennsylvania. I think North Carolina and Georgia will swing Trump's way, although they are incredibly close too.

BBC are expecting results for Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia and Arizona today.
If (big if) Biden wins those 4 states, he'll be on 277.

      Boro v Swansea

      As our leading scorer I'd be tempted to play Magic Marvin as the lone Striker with Tav behind and Roberts and Watmore on the wings.

      The January Transfer Window 2021

      Platt was my boyhood keeper, couldn't kick a ball straight, unless he kicked it straight into touch, but he was excellent for years, I would rate him on par with Schwarzer and I think the Aussie would have helped to keep us up if he hadn't gotten injured.

      The January Transfer Window 2021

      By Redcar Rioja · Posted

      Given made 16 Boro appearances, Valdes 28 appearances and Randolph 106 appearances in a Boro shirt. Given was a 93 day maximum permitted loan but he kept 10 clean sheets in those 16 games. I'm pretty sure that Valdes will have been signed with the intention of him being around for longer than 28 games. Randolph's 106 games are maybe not what could be classed as a long serving tenure but a little more than a cameo in fairness to him. in contrast however Jim Platt made 481 appearances so I suppose by comparison they were all somewhat transient.

      The big Auzzie was very good and for a long time.  I notice you have not mentioned Jim Platt who I rated highly also along with Pears.  For some reason I tend to regard Given and Randolph as cameo appearances which is not really fair   but who said life was fair - keep smiling

      Some interesting replies on crowds returning.  I have a record of 65 + years of attending Boro matches and I'm anxious to keep it up but have one or three health problems so I can take no risks with Covid. transmissions.   I'd love to go but it won't be until I've been vacced etc.  If I can I'd love to go, even if its just the one game to keep up the record of at least one game in every season since 1953/4   keep smiling
