A general thread to discuss tittish behaviour by current or ex-pros and managers, pundits, executives or media goons.
Exhibit A: self-styled wheeler dealer and alleged fan of creative accounting Hawwwy Redknap partakes in a touching Jim Davison tribute act...
International break thread. Yeah, we all know the drill - tons of terrible threads spring up.
I'm concerned GOT is lacking forum villains and/or anti-heroes. The pantomime villains, contrarians, and outspoken seekers of truth have all been a core and key part of the GOT experience in my time...
Opinions seem divided about the significance of Newcastle winning the Carabao Cup for Everton FC.
Some seem nea in the game thread. Others seem concerned about the consequences on the behaviour of the Geordies towards Everton and Evertonians.
What's your view?
An esteemed MP has suggested wrestling may help young men quell urges and anger:
Teach boys to wrestle to stop knife crime, says Miriam Cates
‘It would help them learn self-control,’ says former Tory MP who co-wrote social report that paints grim picture of plight of young men
Young boys...
No. 1 has to be that awful nivea (I think?) advert featuing Steve McManaman and three of their current players, all ironically with terrible skin.
Some godawful ones, going back years. The Pizza Hut Gareth Southgate ones were naff.
Tell us yours.
A place to contain bad things, stupidity, rage, fear, sexual tension, and petty squabbles.
Definitely not an arena, coliseum, amphitheatre, or a place for gladiators. No sir.
Tag in yer idiots. Go!
Yup, a thread for the Grandolddadsnet.com side of the forum.
Anyone got a Toyota hybrid? Long story short, my commute has got a hell of a lot shorter and my big heavy DPF burdened diesel ain't the machine for it. So considering a Corolla estate (touring sports or whatever you call them).
I...
I'm a bit stuck at the moment for safe thread topics.
It's a scary new world, courtesy of the law being an ass - see here for more details:
Thread 'Changes Coming To GOT' https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/changes-coming-to-got.121226/
Can we make a list of potential future threads...
A thread for all those posters with Red leanings.
Admit your sins and we can all discuss this like adults.
Feel free to tag in any likely candidates to get this mature adult discussion started.
Any good examples?
There's the obvious 'baby on board' one which ignores the wider issue before not driving like a bell regardless of who is in front.
Saw 'hit the brakes not a horse' this morning. WHAT???? Don't know many who use horses to slow down.
Just noticed an advert for Viagra/Boots during the half-time adverts for the Forest-Brighton game on TNT.
Appropriate target audience in fairness, what with all the floppy fathers watching.
Just a bit surprised to see it. Might lead to some interesting conversations if watching with little...
I think there's some residual sexual tension between posters such as @Saint Domingo who backed Dyche and others who were less enamoured.
Hug/bum it out in here folks.
Inspired by the lifting, walking and running threads, I thought I'd ask GOT which exercise hobbyists amongst the male population are the most smugly annoying? The ones who act like they're better than everyone and anything, including sliced bread.
Fwiw, mine is martial artist fellas. Complete...
An exciting real world take on a GOT classic topic:
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jan/16/norwich-pizza-chefs-are-waging-war-over-pineapple-but-theyre-just-the-latest-to-put-a-tax-on-taste
A £100 levy for asking for pineapple on pizza. Fair or utter food fascism?
@john jako, in another thread, has observed that in some quarters the Moyes re-appointment is taking more flak than when we hired the porcine one.
Which one makes you feel less good about Everton FC?
We all see many disputes, disagreements, feuds, and arguments daily on this fine forum.
I think a formalised dispute resolution process may help: a) the moderators; b) the general quality of the forum experience.
Some suggested mechanisms in the poll. Please suggest others.
