Seems a bit risky making that many changes!

Swapped from working in food industry to charity sector. Luckily had no mortgage or kids though so risks were less.

Can you move roles within current company? Or look for roles that utilise PM skills and ensure you redo CV to emphasise those areas.

Grew up a few miles away from there. Everyone local knows the story and it's one of the few interesting things in the area. So don't think it's the story, probably just didn't want to get permission from residents 😱

Don't forget there's still Kalvin Phillips.....

Cheers! Pretty sure I'm going to be like Sunderland... Soon drop back down to mid table safety 😂😂

I'm taking full credit as I transferred Newcastle players into my fantasy team expecting a West Ham capitulation!

Probably asked AI to do it! 😱

I get the criticism of Reindeers but Rodri also was criticised massively in this first season and he turned out OK in the end. 😀 So not going to write him off quite yet. Wirtz also struggling in his first season.

Think it is Arsenals to lose this season but still a long way to go.

Increase income tax AND increase thresholds. That's the fairer option. Lower paid get more money in the pockets. They will then spend that locally.

There is no point for consumers! 5G doesn't travel as far as 4G and doesn't penetrate walls very well so it's rubbish inside. It is fast over short distances so it would be needed if we had autonomous cars and had transmitters in every lamp post.

It's OK, with all these LLMs hallucinating things there will be lots of new stuff....

Just none of it will be correct!

Think I might relaunch Encyclopedia Brittanica and sell them door to door!! 😱

So sick of hearing about the next election which is nearly 4 years away! Maybe media could be concentrating on issues now!

Just need one of those "Smaller" teams to get it over the line and maybe others will learn. I do remember quite a few late City winners. Not quite in 95th, 96th though and definitely not all in one stretch.

Unfortunately I can only see them getting better so let's hope Everton burst that bubble.

Great as always! Though do think Liverpool are enjoying what City has had for years. Sides are beaten before they get on the pitch. Players thinking perhaps we might snatch a draw and forget a game is 90 minutes plus Slot Time.

I love my Garmin Fenix 6X and will def replace it if it breaks. The route mapping on my wrist is really useful and I only have a few app notifications turned on, the ones I really want.
