They’ve already spent £100-150m on championship talent, I’m not sure Neil improves them that much. Maybe he starts ahead but of Jack Taylor?
For us, I don’t think he’s better than Grimes or Torp.
To be honest, I’m not that fussed about Neil. Obviously a good Championship player but it’s not a given he improves the starting eleven.
Ipswich have got Prem money but their recruitment is geared towards being too good for the Championship, but not good enough for Prem imo.
It’s not a grift, these parties are occupying a vacuum left by the trade union movement/political left.
I’d agree on the final sentence, from 1997 to present day, both Tory and Labour have been wedded to Blairite consensus. Blair himself being a Thatcher’s ‘biggest political accomplishment’.
PR is terrible imo. Imagine being governed by coalitions that no one actually voted for?
The current UK context, you’d probably have a big Labour-Green-LD block v Tory/Reform or if we went the same way as Germany, a Labour/Tory grand coalition because their more right or left wing partners are...
You can disagree all you want, but it’s what the polling is showing. It follows a trend of collapsing working class support for centre-left parties across Europe.
You can’t really be ‘anti-establishment’ if you’re odds-on to form the next government…
It’s a pattern that happens with any party who comes from the fringes to government.
In the short term, probably. Longer term, a new consensus probably emerges, what that looks like is anyone’s guess. The...
Farage is on record saying he wants to stage a reverse takeover of the Tory party. The hard deadline of 7th May is designed to put maximum pressure to would-be defectors.
Braverman and Jenrick are popular with grassroot Tories precisely because they lambasted the Tory record. These are...
It was more Horner name dropping the club saying he tried to get Neymar to sign, possibly before he went to Saudi and he was having issues at PSG.
We’ve also got Ayao Komatsu (Haas team principle) who supports us so at one point, 20% of F1 Team Principles supported Cov!
Dick Cheney was a Cov fan?! That’s got to be bullshit! 😂
I’ve only seen the first few replies but surprised not many people have mentioned Christian Horner. He supposedly ‘tried’ to get Neymar to sign for us…
The only shocking thing about Braverman defecting is how long it took. It is also true that the Conservative Party has been 'purging' members on the right of the party to preemptively strike against defections so it makes sense the likes of Braverman and Jenrick to leave.
Reform need to start...
That’s harsh, we’ve got the most points from winning positions and have took the lead more than anyone else the league.
We’ve only lost at Wrexham, Drew against PNE, Southampton, Charlton and Oxford. All away from home which needs to be looked at. Ipswich/Boro have not lost a winning position...
When you win just about every home game as we have done under Lampard, you get a lot of leeway away from home. Unless this home form collapses, we’re going to be ok. The only teams we’ve lost to at home are Leeds, Burnley, Sunderland and Ipswich.
Another fact to blow your mind: in 22/23, we...
