Honestly think our squad, when they get back, are good enough to do okay. There’s definitely not 6 squads clearly better than us.

Think the influence of a manager is massively overrated, tbh, and thus far Amorim has been at best neutral, but more likely a negative.

A lot of people are quite high on Fletcher, too.

Will be interesting to see what happens if he does an Ole.


Speaking of fucking Ole, I see he's throwing his bloody name back in the hat!! Please, no.

Agree about the squad in general.
 
It occurred to me that coal might not have occurred to @Ignicious because it was never as popular for domestic use over there. Nor were there many mines, and apparently most of the ones that were were in the remote north. Whereas it was huge over here.

I don't remember this far back, but I remember horse-drawn carts delivering sacks of coal.

Some of the troughs still survive from that age, in rural areas.

With that being said


This summer, students from Norwegian University of Science and Technology analyzed data from 600 wells drilled on the Norwegian Shelf of the North Sea. They calculated that there are 3000 billion tons of coal off the Norwegian coast. Most of the reserves are located at Haltenbanken. This compares to today’s proven and recoverable world reserves of 900 billion tons of coal.

So if we ever get off this cockroach-smoothie, 15-minute city wind turbine stuff there'll be work to be done!
This set me on a train of thought and I thought about how much better people used to dress.

This is a (representation of a) builder in 1975:

I wish upper-working class people still dressed like this. God our society's gone to absolute shit so fast lol.
