Nice work RM. As for the match..... We beat the bottom club. Sadly the club are upping the stakes. When KM described the relationship with the fans as 'war', it turns out she was simply predicting the immediate future.
Been out all day - what's this about police action? Can anyone give a summary of what ic I've missed without breaking any rules etc!?! Cheers.
"Been out all day"
Plumstead nick?
I wish - I had to endure the film Trolls with my nieces.
If anyone wants to pm a summary that would be appreciated.
The Trolls are small creatures who live in an almost perpetual state of happiness, singing, dancing and hugging all day long. However, they are discovered by the Bergens, large creatures who never feel happy but discover that they can feel happy for a moment if they eat a Troll. The Bergens put the Trolls and their tree in a cage, and hold an annual festival in which each Bergen gets its feeling of happiness by eating a Troll. However, the Trolls, led by their King Peppy (Jeffrey Tambor), escape through underground tunnels on the day that the Bergen crown prince Gristle Jr. (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) would taste his first Troll. The furious Bergen king Gristle Sr. (John Cleese) banishes the Chef (Christine Baranski) who was in charge of the Troll preparation.
Twenty years later, King Peppy's daughter, the extremely happy and optimistic Princess Poppy (Anna Kendrick), throws a big party to celebrate the Trolls' escape, despite the fears and warnings of the glum and paranoid Troll Branch (Justin Timberlake) that loud parties will attract the Bergens. Branch's fears are realized when indeed the banished Bergen Chef sees the fireworks and captures a number of Trolls. Poppy is among the Trolls who managed to hide, but discovers that none of the other Trolls dare to venture to Bergen Town to rescue their friends. She is however able to recruit the reluctant Branch, and together they go to Bergen Town.
Poppy and Branch discover that their friends are being guarded by the scullery maid Bridget (Zooey Deschanel), and strike a deal with her: if she frees their friends, they will help her get a date with the now King Gristle Jr. With the Trolls' advice (and hair), Bridget gets her date with Gristle and she helps the Trolls escape. However, things go wrong when Poppy and her friends try to rescue the last Troll, the Zen-like Troll Creek (Russell Brand) who after being apparently swallowed by the young king has been discovered being held captive in the jewel that decorates the king's mantle. While the Trolls are successful in stealing the jewel, they are dismayed to discover that it is empty and even more shocked by being captured immediately afterwards by Chef and discovering that Creek has betrayed them to save his own hide. Creek returns to the Troll village where using Poppy's cowbell he lures the other Trolls out of hiding, letting them be captured by Chef and the other Bergen cooks who lie in ambush.
With all the Trolls captured and being ready to be served to the Bergens, even Poppy loses hope and she and all the other Trolls turn grey. Branch, despite his grumbling, reveals to Poppy through song that he cannot stand seeing her and the other Trolls so despondent. For the first time since his grandmother was eaten by a Bergen, Branch sings so that Poppy and the other Trolls regain their color and hope, leading Branch himself to lose his grey hue and show his true blue color.
Just before being served, the Trolls are rescued by Bridget who wants them to flee while she herself is ready to accept the Bergen's punishment for her "treason." However, Poppy does not want to abandon her Bergen friend. Together with the other Trolls, Poppy reveals that Bridget was in fact the king's mysterious date, and that for being happy it is not necessary to eat Trolls as the feeling that Bridget and the King had on their date was happiness too. The trolls invite the Bergens to sing and dance with them, making the grey creatures feel the happiness that was already inside them that they just needed help to access. The vengeful Chef, who sees her newly re-won position at court jeopardized, tries to kill the Trolls. Before she can do so is knocked into the serving cart by a well-aimed spoon thrown by Bridget. Together with the traitor Creek who was still in her pouch, Chef rolls out of the castle, winding up in the wilderness where she and Creek themselves are devoured by a big monster.
In the end, the Trolls live in peace with the happy Bergens, Poppy is crowned their new queen, and with Branch regaining his true blue color and his hope, he and Poppy hug.
Police Action - sounds like more and more of a N Korean dictatorship every day! I understand a number of members have been banned because they publicised what was going on.
I understand why the first thread was closed down and removed, I don't like it but I don't blame @AFKABartram or @LoOkOuT. However I do blame TK and KM, free speech has obviously 'scared' them. Like many oppressive regimes they strike out when cornered. I work hard to bring people the match threads, and because of other comments made (and I don't blame them) it was removed. Sad times at CAFC, sad times.
