I’ve been an endoscopy nurse for the last 10 years (check my user name!). If any forum users ever need any help or advice you can always pm me. My (back) door is always open.

Is there anything that can stop erections during these procedures? Asking for a friend.

Just think of Nicholas Witchell. Although I’m on a final written warning so this isn’t entirely foolproof.

Bad boys, bad boys, watcha gunner do? Watcha gunner do when they come for you?

A former Arsenal and Queens Park Rangers footballer has been charged in connection with an attempt to smuggle £600,000 of cannabis through Stansted airport.

 

Jay Emmanuel-Thomas was arrested by National Crime Agency (NCA) officers shortly after 8am on Wednesday in Gourock, Inverclyde. He currently plays for the Scottish Championship side Greenock Morton.

 

The 33-year-old striker, who had recently played for Livingston, Aberdeen and Kidderminster Harriers, was detained and questioned by officers, and has been remanded in custodybefore an expected court appearance on Thursday.

 

The arrest came after the NCA seized an estimated £600,000 of the class B drug as it was being smuggled through Stansted airport on 2 September. Border Force officers detected roughly 60kg of the drug in two suitcases, which had arrived on a flight from Bangkok, Thailand.

 

Emmanuel-Thomas is expected to appear at Carlisle magistrates court on Thursday accused of importing class B drugs. Two women aged 28 and 32 were arrested and appeared at Chelmsford magistrates court. They were bailed to appear at Chelmsford crown court on 1 October.

 

Emmanuel-Thomas previously played for Jamshedpur FC as an overseas player in the 2022–23 Indian Super League. He also played for Ipswich Town from 2011 to 2013, Bristol City from 2013 to 2015 and the Thai team PTT Rayong in 2019. He signed his first professional contract with Arsenal in 2008, after playing for the club’s youth team from the age of eight, before moving to Ipswich Town in 2011.

 

David Phillips, an NCA senior investigating officer, said: “The NCA continues to work with partners like Border Force to target those involved in drug smuggling – that includes both the couriers and the organisers.

 

“We would appeal to anyone who is approached to engage in any kind of smuggling to think very carefully about the likely consequences of their actions and the potentially life-changing risks they will be taking.”

 

The NCA has recently warned people arriving into the UK from Thailand, Canada and the United States that they face jail sentences if caught attempting to bring cannabis into the country, after a huge increase in arrests.

 

The agency says the amount of cannabis seized so far this year is more than three times that in 2023. The NCA also said drug couriers often reported being told by their superiors they risked only a fine if caught, when in reality the maximum sentence for smuggling cannabis into the UK is 14 years behind bars.

Anyone watching Feyer Leverkusen?

 

Timber and Wirtz would be 2 quality additions.

[Binomial]

It’s just been too easy for Leverkusen here. Feyenoord defence all stood still.

 

Nice little Henry like pass from Boniface.

 

0-3 Wirtz, just too easy again, Frimpong given all the time to carry the ball and pick any cross out he wanted…no one within 500 yards of him, Wirtz ghosting into the box to get on the end of the cross. Shambolic defending.

 

Worst half of defending I’ve seen from any side in the CL ever.

Unmarked far post and then the keeper…wow, no words.

[No2]

Looking forward to watching this Arsenal game. I think Atlanta are excellent, when they beat us it was all about how shit we were. Their excellence was lost in the haze of fume.

CL games on Thursday night is wrong.

19 out of 23 players on Barca’s starting 11 and bench are Spanish. 
 

Good for them Id say.

Out of necessity rather than choice I reckon.

[polymerpunkah]

Ref with some balls.

 

Straight red, Barca down to ten.

 

And now he laughs in the face of a pathetic dive by another Barcelonan attempting to win an undeserved penalty.

 

Monaco make it 1-0.

 

 

[Lurtz]

Had no idea Minamino was at Monaco. 

[Shitty Arse]

Pelanty to Atalanta

Raya double save from a pen saving Arsenal's hide there

Best double save you'll ever see ..... Scuffed penalty and a header into the centre of the goal...

[Smell The Glove]

Both of those saves that Raya has done where he's got off the floor, yes they are very good, but fucking hell, both strikers headed them into his path. 

[Pidge]

Cuadrado still one of those players that always flatters to deceive then.

[Smell The Glove]

He's a bit of a square

Are Saliba and Gabriel the best CB partnership in Europe?

[Binomial]

& if fans think the likes of Atleti and Barca have any chance getting top 8 over us in this phase, think again.

[Code]

Arsenal really lucky, the commentators on TNT were ear aids.

They’re the best at roughing up opponents and getting away with it persistently.
