Eirik Horneland.

It surprises me that people still refer to it (not aimed at the initial poster so much, more a general feeling). The amount of times I’m told a team is dominating because they have 60% possession. Possession is calculated on the number of completed passes. Tippy tappy shit around the defence...

Think he meant the tussle with Bassette and Hughes.

When we win the ball back in their half we look dangerous. When we build from the back we look lacklustre.

Thomas again. Really don’t understand what’s happened to him this season.

The one positive change I see in terms of this year vs last year in the formation is Van Ewijk has started being a lot more forward-thinking in his general play. He didn’t really fit at wing back last year but think he’ll suit it a lot more now.

Right, that’s what I was missing. Thought they were reimbursed by Government.

Reading the final snippet of what you posted - and for clarity I have only worked at large corporations - but I’ve never really ‘got’ statutory sick pay. Why doesn’t the employer pick up the tab? The obvious reason to my mind is to artificially manage down costs but would leaving sick pay in the...

Get a timer plug as well if you haven’t. That way the cooking aspect can sort itself overnight and you come down to the week’s lunches in the morning.

Similar thoughts on EV. I’ll likely get one as my next car through a work lease scheme but wouldn’t buy one myself. The other half can have my VW Tiguan to replace her Seat Leon. Recently had our first child so the boot space helps.

Rudoni on the left and possibly Torp on the right?

Reminds me a bit (in terms of playing style) to Tom Bayliss. Everyone was clamouring for him to play in the 10 but his strength was driving from deep. It does make me wonder if we could recreate our playing style from the back-end of our L2 season where we started in a 442 shape but switched to...

Yeah I get that. I’ve just gone back and re-read, seems I had indeed misread as it pitted low-skilled immigrant workers vs general indigenous workers.

The numbers seem to suggest there is a difference, unless I’m reading it wrong.

Not quite following the figures quoted here (although not directly disputing them!). How is there an attached cost to lower-income immigrants in comparison to lower-income indigenous? Are there running costs to immigration that I’m unaware of? Do they disproportionately access public services?

Mason-Clark was towards the top of pretty much every metric vs others in his position last season. He’s had a slow start but it’s blatant that there’s a player in there.

You’re likely thinking of Sam Baldock. Regardless, no age to go. A year younger than me.

I understand that forms part of our character assessment now in recruitment.

He’s come from a team that attacks at pace in which he thrived. Partly the step up in quality, and partly the pedestrian nature of our play, means we aren’t really seeing what he can do to the fullest extent at the moment.

In tandem with this, I feel we haven’t really utilised the free agent market well with this squad rebuild. I get not wanting to spend a fee on 28+ year olds but a smattering of good quality free agents would have helped massively. Think there’s only Latibeaudiere that we’ve brought in via this...
