Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Not quite correct Bargey! Terminal velocity is not uniform across solid objects. You need to consider their drag force as well. Two objects of the same mass won't fall at the same speed if one is streamlined (like a bullet or a dart) and one is not (like a really big piece of paper).
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Getting into pedant mode, an anvil falling from an airplane would not fall any faster than any other solid object, such as a £1 coin.
Any falling solid object is subject to the force of gravity dragging it down, and the resistance of air molecules keeping it up. This means that the object will accelerate until it reaches the terminal velocity of approx. 120mph, and will then fall to ground at that constant speed.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I'd like to rephrase the statement as "Anyone with half a brain or ambition in their head would leave the 2nd placed club in League One with an academy being built, a billionaire owner and a culture they have been a major part of building for 20+ years for a club falling faster than an anvil from an airplane."
Re: Other Football
TBH, I am really hoping we beat Pompey tonight and then get drawn against Everton away in the next round. My brother-in-law and his son are season ticket holders there so it would be a great opportunity to go there before the the new ground opens up, plus there is a decent chance to meet up with @ryan_w_kirkby2 and perhaps @manchesterchairboy too? Always good to meet the extended Chairboys family.
Re: Other Football
We're getting Everton in the 4th round. It is meant to be for @ryan_w_kirkby2.
Re: Aaron Morley
I feel sorry for Morley and Sadlier. One of them has to come back from injury and immediately provide the crosses we have been missing and if the other one comes back to the Marlow bistros he's got to ensure the promotion we demand.
Re: Other Football
A little better tonight and had a rare treat of sitting in one of the lounges. Had a message before the schoolrun that Dyche was gone and Baines was in charge. Made up he's got a chance, he played for my dad's team with me as a kid and we were close growing up in senior school.
Quality on the pitch and sound lad off it. Apparently it's Moyes on a 18 month contract which I'm happy with. Would like him to maybe promote Baines to assistant or have him in and around the first team, have heard Charlie Adam as assistant which isn't very inspiring if I'm honest.
Be watching our game on the tele tomorrow and hoping we're in the draw together Sunday.
