    That's the Way chant

    This video of Hibs fans has been going viral over the last week or so, so I'm guessing that was what inspired us to sing a version of it, too.

    Embarrassing

    I know it doesn't make them thick, I said it's more likely that they will be. Being educated isn't the be all and end all, there's some very astute people who have had little education, and some absolute wallys who have been to Oxbridge. But it is more likely to be the other way round, on the...

    Embarrassing

    You're right, 100%. I apologise. It's actually a pet peeve of mine when people use the left/right labels, especially when you consider how far the Overton Window has shifted in the UK in the last 10 years.

    Embarrassing

    You're right to be wary of statistics, they certainly can be manipulated to tell a story and push an agenda. And it's impossible to know the reasons for individual cases about why they voted a particular way, trends can be useful, but won't pick up the reasons behind protest votes, for sure...

    Embarrassing

    Well...the demographics do indicate, that on the balance of probabilities, they are more likely to be thick. I understand your point that every opinion and vote has equal weighting, regardless of how well researched they are. And I don't automatically label everyone with different political...

    Embarrassing

    It's exactly why the previous few right wing Governments have put less emphasis on people going into higher education, as it was 'spiralling out of control' and we were at risk of having an, ever increasingly, educated society (and not divided and conquered, like Britain bloody well oughta be)...

    Embarrassing

    Granted it's only my own anecdotal evidence, but near enough every single comment or clip of people who support Reform, or stop the boats, etc. is, well, barely in English. Also, at the last election, the largest demographic that had the greatest propensity to vote for Reform (even more than...

    Embarrassing

    They might not ALL be racist, but they are all thick and gullible. Few of them can string a sentence together or have an independent thought of their own. None of them are capable of critical thinking (I genuinely am trying to find just one of them, who can use a reputable reference to back up...

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    I think we should be careful what we wish for regarding season ticket sales as well. Because this proves that if we ever get to a point where we're comfortably selling out season tickets, and have an actual waiting list, Doug will go bloody mad with those prices as well. We'd be paying Sheffield...

    New COO - Paul Tyrrel

    Let's hope he's not a mixed bag, or he won't be flavour of the month.

    Squad stats for 24/25

    10 goals + assists in such few games is also impressive. If he can become more robust and avoid injuries could be a real player next season.

    Clive Eakin on CWR

    No chance of him and Oggy working together.

    Not getting a head of ourselves ….

    Yeah, exactly! I'm more bitter about this than the pens themselves and almost as much as the VAR decision. It shouldn't be possible to have both. I read it somewhere as more like 80% when you have both, but either way...shows pens isn't the 50/50 lottery everyone says it is. I have some comfort...

    Not getting a head of ourselves ….

    It feels very different. Last time it just felt so unlikely we would get past Middlesbrough, and we were lucky just to have made the playoffs at all. That Middlesbrough away leg is the most nervous I've ever felt at a football game, and the most I've ever celebrated a goal, I went mental because...

    We would have been better off with Robins

    We have struggled recently with our injuries. During the 9 wins in 10 we beat Swansea, Preston, Bristol - teams we usually struggle against. We've also ground out wins in particularly ugly games against QPR and Portsmouth. We used to struggle in these types of games. Sunderland, Baggies and...

    We would have been better off with Robins

    The tl;dr version of what I put was: Lampard was good at consistently grinding out results (a weakness of Robins). Robins was good at getting us up for big games and getting unlikely results against teams who are better than us. Not that one is overall better than the other. But from what...

    We would have been better off with Robins

    We were in a worse position at the point he was sacked when he got us to finish 5th 2 seasons ago... We were in an even worse position last season when he turned it around and got us averaging top 2 form for 4 months until we tailed off in the league after the Wolves game and the cup run killed...

    We would have been better off with Robins

    We won't truly know until October next season (assuming we don't go up). Lampard needs to have a full summer and transfer window to fully implement his philosophies, and if he can start a season well too, then it will 100% prove the appointment was the right thing to do. If we do go up in the...
