I'd love us to build a new stadium and get out from under Wasps. The evidence so far is hugely against it though; we've had a lot of time to get things moving, but there's never been any genuine sign of progress. I can't see where SISU suddenly find 20-30 million quid from...

Sadly, us lefties aren't supported financially by mysterious far-right organisations and unusual (even-Russian) finding sources, so I've still got to go out and earn a living. Still, I'm sure that Yaxley-Lennon loves his country so much that he can in no way be influenced by all that cash...

Thuggish criminal twat behaves like thug shocker. Such a big man he didn't even have the bottle to stick around to hear the count after the Euro elections; didn't fancy facing the cameras then did he? Funded by the far right, doesn't work for a living, pretends to stand up for the little guy...

Commercially, I can't see how it works for more than a few years. Rent is likely to be equivalent or more and attendances lower. The EFL are spineless, agreed, but even they will tire of it eventually you'd think, and they have got a million pound bond, apparently. Best hope is probably that...

As for St Andrew's, I genuinely believe we'll be made to feel more welcome there than we are currently at the Ricoh. And if the money can't go direct to the club, then I'd rather my stadium spend went into Blues pockets than those conniving, slimy bastards that run the insects. Bollocks to...

Is it time to crank out the Wembley Special again, Otis? Must be brilliant having your own train, bit of a nightmare for parking though I'd guess. :)

Spot on. A pity, given he's a journalist with some clout. He's on a campaign against crap owners in football, which is laudable, but it's either blinded him to any nuance in our situation, or he's just out to sell a few books/clicks without doing too much work.

No, but it's patently idiocy to suggest they're the only ones to blame. You can stick your 'SISU apologist' line where the sun doesn't shine too, I know that's what comes next...

If you got the revs right you could use it instead of the clutch. :) It was the first car I ever drove, slightly illlegally, when moving my old man's ex-GPO van round the entry. Second (when I was about 15) was his Chrysler 2 Litre (a posh version of the 180, if anyone remembers them). I...

Just seen as a bit dicey, I think. I used to hitch-hike to Wales from Cov every couple of weeks to go climbing. I reckon I still know every lay-by on the A5, it was rarely a fast journey! Still see some of the car delivery drivers on trade plates trying for lifts on the motorway junctions...

Clearly had tons of skill, but always looked a little lightweight for us I thought. Obviously has come on loads as he's got older, bigger and more experienced (as players often do), and probably gets looked after better by refs in the higher divisions. Not exactly the first player who has done...

I can help with this. If you're British and move to a different country for work purposes, usually whilst still retaining elements of your culture, you're an ex-pat. If you're not British and do this, then you're an immigrant. Hope this helps. :)

I love my country mate, I had more than one go at joining up to fight for it. As did others in my family. So you can fuck right off with that assumption pal. I just don't want a country where hatred and fear of 'the other' become acceptable. What's pathetic is this terror of people who aren't...

London has never been about tea-cakes and polo. It's never been posh either, in the places where the people who work for a living live anyway. Anyone who thinks that it isn't and hasn't always been multi-cultural has obviously never lived there. Let's be honest here, your real definition of...

It's a very large, metropolitan city. Lots of people with funny accents, some of them aren't even white. This was London in the 80s too when I lived there. Brum too, and even parts of Coventry. It didn't scare me then, and it doesn't scare me now. What does worry me is where this goes next for...

You read the article you've linked you didn't you? It's just that the judge involved seemed to quite clear that it was threats against all MPs' safety that needed to be dealt with. The bloke wasn't sent to prison because he attacked someone from the 'left', it was because he attacked a...

I completely agree that throwing milkshakes etc. is wrong. Even if it's Farage or Robinson, the law is the law, and it's counterproductive to allow these buffoons to paint themselves as victims. However I won't be lectured on hypocrisy by anyone who supports the right wing nutters, racists and...

Absolutely. I suppose the other positive is that the CET site is now so painfully useless that most people won't read this kind of garbage anyway. I suppose losing most of their best players is good news too... "Now we can try the youngsters!". Running out of money to pay wages because of the...

Hmm. I'm not sure that 'all religions' isn't rather a sweeping statement here. The issue with abortion seems to be a generally right-wing, authoritarian, position, the left has traditionally been behind the fight for women's rights, including the right to control their own bodies. Similarly in...

Indeed, I wasn't really that fussed about Premiership rugby before they arrived, but now Wasps have given me a team to fervently support. It's whoever is playing against them. :)
