    Championship thread 24/25!

    Does seem funny that we’ll see say £2m a year as “unsustainable” then go and spend that on a couple of players. Would love to know what the definition is. Championship football is unsustainable full stop, the aim is to get out of it.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The main blocker is labour (the workers not the party :p), we can of course just like with nurses just stop capping the training courses or allow people to come into the country to work. You can see the impact the TCPA had in historic graphs which suggests planning alone knocks a couple of...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    You said a year ago that the US needed to be more firm with Russia and that you disagreed that it was all Ukraines fault and people were hostile? Really? Everyone wants peace. The idea anyone including the Ukrainians don’t is a nonsense. The problem is people don’t think total capitulation will...

    Ah so private companies as opposed to state built? I’d agree. Even housing associations are trying to get as much for their money as possible. I’m sure I’ve told the story on here of talking to one who wanted to knock down an estate they owned because “the gardens are too big and there’s too...

    Not sure what a listed developer is, but house builders big and small just want to make profit, like any company if you don’t legislate for it they won’t do it out of the kindness of their hearts. I’ve met a lot of house builders and there are far more immoral small builders than large in my...

    Can’t wait for the post in five years about how the rent is unsustainable in the PL unless we get into Europe.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Feb

    Maybe, though I’m not a fan of either defensively. I can see @Chicken Mcgraw s case for MvE as part of the back three in possession for pace in a high line and then I’d rather have Dasilva on the left I think than Bidwell in the final third. But not a huge amount in it.

    And on corruption, not good, like most Eastern European states outside the EU, but miles better than Russia, who are the alternative here. https://foreignpolicy.com/2024/03/06/ukraine-corruption-reforms-russia-war/ Basically the usual suspects are spouting utter bollocks they’ve had fed...

    Not that anyone in this thread cares, but here’s what we know about Zelenskys finances. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/04/05/fact-check-post-unsupported-claim-ukraine-president-volodymyr-zelenskyy-assets-and-income/11592626002/

    Oh yeah agree 100%. Wouldn’t play Dasilva in a back four.

    I’ve always thought community geothermal and battery storage should be a requirement on new builds over say 20 plots (figures from my arse). Then solar as well. The costs work out easily over the buildings life. The problem with getting solar built is people like me looking at it but also...

    Same as every other game when I looked yesterday. Usual gaps behind the goal and in the corner.
