The Corrs, all of them including Jim or nothing

I’d push the brother out of the room, bend them all over, do the drummer, the lead singer, and that one who plays violin.

I was getting my Irish girl bands mixed up thought this was a conversation about B*Witched and now I feel really dirty. And have a C’est La vie earworm which is even more annoying.

Which one of B*Witched did you think was called Jim?

The Corrs brother is an anti-vaxxer so he can fuck right off.

Judging by the last photo I saw of them I’m not making any predictions.

Unai Emery on the debate between Watkins and Duran:
After Young Boys
"Now we have Jhon Duran in good form. They can play together Duran & Watkins. As well, today Watkins plays 60 minutes, another 30 minutes for Duran. Of course, we need both, together, and individually, adding his capacity on the pitch in the time we need.”

Ashley Young yes.
Agbonlahor does have the Prem goalscoring record.

Regards a comparison to the Title league and Euro winning strikers of the 80s Withe, Morley, and Shaw I haven't seen them, but they must be better as they won.
They are rightfully part of history, we can't compare those current three, though Watkins could be regarded as one of our greatest strikers in modern era. Duran potentially can go far.

So Duran comes on when 1-0 down as a partner for Watkins not to supplement .
Hallelujah!

It's actually very topical !
Watkins scores with JD on pitch not replacing him but playing together!
Lets get behind the team and get the Win !

Brilliant !!
