    What’s it all about?

    Whilst I don’t disagree with your point, we are relatively powerless as most of the exposure is on social media and outside of school. All we can do is educate with facts, so young people know as much as possible. It’s important to know for example that being non-binary or gender fluid is not...

    What’s it all about?

    Kids have been experimenting with adulthood, be it alcohol, drugs, smoking, sex or porn. Some also explore their sexuality, and although the idea around gender identity and pronouns is relatively recent, all we can do is educate them and empower them with knowledge in the way we would in all the...

    What’s it all about?

    They aren’t making a decision - they are exploring their identity and asking you to use a pronoun that may make them feel safe or included. If a few months later they stop doing it then no one has been harmed or inconvenienced but that child may have more self esteeem or confidence in being who...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It’s powder puff though, they’ve said it out loud when there is no longer a danger of change… and they will then carry on as before.

    He didn’t look very detached when we scored to be fair.

    Has seeing the lads play made you more or less optimistic about the season

    Having listened and then seen some brief highlights, I am optimistic that top 6 is a minimum given that we had zero loan signings in our squad yesterday and we have O’Hare to still return, never mind any further signings we may make. I’ve got a feeling Wright is going to be a stellar signing...

    I didn’t hear CWR on Sunday, how did he cope with Latibeaudiere?

    Things that annoy you

    I listened to the game in the car on the way to Scotland on Talksport. The amount of basic errors the commentators made about us alone (Allen could come on in the 2nd half and support Hamer was my personal favourite) - for a station that claims to be the ‘home of the EFL’ a bit of basic research...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    My own school is cutting KS3 subjects as it can’t staff them - with OFSTED looming not sure how wise that is but we’ll see. There is no real benefit to any of this approach from the Tories, in the same way I don’t think that the academy approach kickstarted by Blair benefitted schools as...

    Wrexham

    Put ‘em in for goals for sure but avoid results.

    If they get off to a flyer, half of that team will be gone by the end of August.

    If you were Burnley you’d be breaking the bank for him.

    Can you reverse a GIF? That would work.

    What’s it all about?

    The issue is also the place that this could happen - be it a gym or a swimming pool. They aren’t putting in sufficient processes to safeguard people. No one is defending it because this would put someone in a position of vulnerability. Allowing someone to identify as they choose does not give...

    It hasn’t at all to be fair…. They’ve been pretty on it.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Leicester City vs Coventry City Match Thread - Sunday 6th Aug

    Going to be in the middle of an 8 hour drive to Aviemore, so will listen to the dulcet tones of whatever random EFL journeyman they roll out on Talksport. I’m going for a 2-1 win
