I know that care homes are not the best of environments to keep any kind of disease under control at the best of times. However, Mr Johnson surely has some audacity to describe the management of care homes as 'cowardly'.

Really finely poised game this, don't know what way it will go. It has panned out exactly like the first game. Aside from the glaring errors, you can tell that the standard of this game is higher than what is to come. So I'll definitely be cheering on the winners of the second semi final in the...

I, too, remember scoring from a corner in a Sunday league game ten years ago. I've not seen one live in men's professional football! That's what lockdown does, unreal.

Yes, History along with English Literature are your core, 'rigorous' arts subjects that teach the importance of arguments over the learning of facts. When it gets to Politics, people's emotions take over and whilst this is true for History as well, at least there is an element of time distance...

I much prefer actually studying History to watching documentaries. By studying I don't necessarily mean taking a course, but rather reading good books (preferably academic ones) around the subject matters, as they give you a very good grounding into different interpretations of events...

Safety concerns aside (what with the access to the common currently being given solely by two flimsy bridges over the M6 - only of which is by vehicle) - the Sowe Common and surrounding area would provide a decent matchday vibe. I could imagine people strolling from the chippy on Ringwood...

I get what you're saying. But how do you know that those who are not adhering to social distancing are necessarily furloughed? It does not necessarily follow that just because the beaches are packed on a scorching hot weekday; that the furlough system is failing - a lot of people have much more...

I found this old gem from when he played in the youth team. This was back in August 2011, when he dropped this clanger. He was also an under-19 (not an under 18), because back then youth teams could field up to under 19 players in their youth teams. So the writing really was on the wall. Having...

It's all about deflecting blame. Most of their voters, already resentful of teachers because they themselves did not do particularly well at school, will equate unions with inaction - despite the fact that many of the industries they themselves work in were once dominated by unions. For years...

The tutoring thing really is quite comical - on the surface, £1 billion sounds a lot but as headteachers have worked out, the per child cost falls very short of the claims of the government. This is also only provision for pre-16 education as well. I think that many hawks in government will...

Fair enough if you think that and I sympathise with no platforming not being a solution to anything. There are degrees of no platforming depending on how you interpret the term. I don't necessarily agree with you on defining it as 'the left' though. With respect to what? Many of her followers...

The problem is that with the way a lot of hiring works nowadays, there's too many people involved which gives too high a chance for people to be discriminated against on whatever grounds. For instance, look at the way recruitment agencies have sandwiched themselves between job applicants and...

Thing is, his mates belong to benefits central. So undoubtedly life is pretty depressing, and when you associate with people who have got no job because they are being beaten in their own country by immigrants, then this is the unfortunate outcomes.

I've been thinking recently - fair enough if it was professional footballers or players who had previously played at a high standard turning out at these rallies. They are 'football lads' in the true sense of the words. Sadly, most of the people I've seen (and those from Coventry I know of) were...

What a lovely, civilised group of people :joyful:

Is that still a thing? I know that up until about 2012 a youth team could field up to three under-19 players but I thought they had dropped that rule when the new Professional Development system came in. How does it differ from being a first year pro?

I was visualising the different types of systems we could play with. Currently I anticipate a squad of 25: GKs: Marosi RWB: Dabo, CBs: (Rose, McFadzean, Hyam), LWB: New signing RCDM: Walsh/new signing, LCDM: Hamer RATM: Allen, LATM: O'Hare/new signing Striker: Godden/new signing Then the sub...

It always makes me chuckle when people use the relative success of their football club to make themselves feel racially superior to their peers. I could kind of understand it with England away days (INGERLUND, INGERLUND, INGERLAND) but what baffles me is when it's Coventry City, where we've had...

It's a game of opinions really, but that first season in League one after we had lost Bigirimana and Clingan (yes, they weren't huge losses but nevertheless we did not have a spine) meant that we needed a few midfielders to steady the ship, and Barton was one of those midfielders that provided...

I don't think he could start and in fact I would agree (McFadzean is just ahead in my opinion but age may play a factor next season). I do suggest he could be a good squad player. I'm not sure we'll have 3 at the back in the Championship but we'll need to adapt, and currently with our squad our...
