The Phillipines were dug meat except for their goalkeeper. NZ had 16 shots, Phillipines 4. Fouls committed by NZ 9, Phillipines 8. I assume you didn't watch Australia v Ireland where the Irish were brutal in comparison to any other team. NZ totally dominated the second half looked like 90% possession in that half. As for the offside hand and arm can't be offside. She was offside by a wee bit of her head and shoulder. Offside by the letter of the law but not the spirit. It could easily have been 4-1 to NZ. On another note the goalkeeping standard throughout the tournament has been dire. See Phillipines goal against NZ and Ireland goal v Australia

Sorry that just isn't true. The four Navy pilots directly saw objects and locked onto it with their radar. Quote from the hearings. David Fravor, a former Navy commander, said he and three fellow military pilots spotted a white Tic-Tac-shaped object in 2004, hovering below their jets and just above the Pacific Ocean. As he descended to inspect the sighting, he claimed the unidentified aircraft — which he said bore no visible rotors, wings or exhaust — began to ascend and approach his fighter jet. He claimed that the UAP then vanished, only to reappear a few seconds later, but this time it was spotted 60 miles away. Fravor told the committee that the technology he and his team encountered defies logical explanation. "The technology that we faced is far superior to anything that we had," Fravor claimed. "And there’s nothing we can do about it, nothing."

"We are either alone in the universe or we are not, both are terrifying prospects", Arthur C Clarke. Given the size of the universe and that parts of it are 100 million years older than our galaxy, it's a serious stretch to believe that we are alone. In the observable universe there are an estimated 2 trillion galaxies. who kens what's in the unobservable parts. Our galaxy alone has an estimated 100 billion stars. So for me of course there are aliens. Whether they can or have been visiting us is a whole other question.

Let's not forget the defendant...

The football went like this. Motherwell were a complete gang and kicked us off the park stopping our usual free flowing beautiful game. The Saints support that day was unbelievable.

Don't remember the first game but remember the first season (67-68 Second Division) well. St.Mirren didn't seem to ever lose. Checking on the league table, they did only lose once. Probably lost away which I wouldn't have seen as only went to home games. They won 27 drew 8 and lost 1. Scored 100 goals and conceded 23. Some team! They finished mid table in the First Division the following year.

Best fermers top in recent history IMO

Going to USA vs Portugal. Game being played at Eden Park Auckland.

According to the Cambridge dictionary you are both correct...

Big Gordon was an absolute goal scoring machine from corner kicks. 70 still way too young. Thanks for the memories big yin.

FFS jist wan wheel. I hit a pothole in Renfrewshire that took out two tyres and trashed an alloy. I was no where near death...

Jeff King misses the penalty for Chesterfield that saw Notts County go up. He also made the National League team of the season. Stevie Mallan was hero turned villain in Salford's playoff. Scored a worldie then missed a penalty in the shoot out. His goal is at 9min 50sec. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGQ3ZRbXj-I

This channel is good value. This story is one of those that you couldn't make up.

The footy adventures guy did a you tube video on them. In the past four years they have gone from part time to qualifying for Europe.

Just watched this. What an amazing effort. It looks immense. Much better than the plain breeze block. Well done to all that took part.

Angie Dickinson's reaction to that line was brilliant. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=330608417663264&external_log_id=fccf8c7e-c20e-4269-b0ce-0223941b08b2&q=welcome as a fart in a spacesuit

Fair points. Can't argue with you on brakes and suspension. However, Mazda tend to stick to tried and tested drivetrains. So no CVT/DCT transmissions and most cars have naturally aspirated engines. The 2003 Mazda MX5 that I sold in 2015 is still going strong today with only drop links being required since the new owner has had it. On the rust front all Mk2 MX5's get rusty sills. Two years ago I bought a 1999 Mazda Premacy it had no rust on it. Similarly I just sold a 2007 Mazda 5, again zero rust on it.

They are introducing hybrid models in some markets. Mazda 3 hybrid is available here in NZ now. However only in the top spec model so isnae cheap. Mazda 2 hybrid is available in the uk

If it was me I would buy a Mazda 3 over a Corolla every time. Depends on how you view cars. I like them to be fun or at least engaging to drive. That's where the Corolla falls down for me it's as dull as dishwater to drive. All Mazdas seem to be better driver's cars. Also, nowadays Mazda are just as reliable as Toyota and often cheaper to repair. The clincher for me is the quality of the interior of the Mazda. If you are going to be spending a lot of time per day in your car. The Mazda is a far nicer place to be. With some notable exceptions, Toyota are the masters of mediocrity for me.

2022 Polo is 1751 mm wide. Length 4050 -4080 mm. 2022 Yaris Cross 1765 wide. Length 4185.

Have you considered a Yaris Cross hybrid? Phenomenal fuel consumption on them and the white one looks like star wars stormtrooper from the front.

In more recent times, definitely Stelios. Eating the thrown chocolate bar will surely never be forgotten. Mark Yardley for me as the all time cult hero. For a chunky chappie he scored a ridiculous amount of goals. His last for the club vs Morton was probably one of his best. Zero scored an incredible free kick against us at Love street that had some of the St. Mirren fans applauding. Only other time that I've seen that was Charlie Adam's goal from halfway for Ross County.

Is it nonsense ? Take the population of the UK (67 million) and divide it by the number of Covid deaths 216,000. See what number you get.
