    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Shame so many people think this is going to stop illegal immigrants. Clue is in the name, if they're coming in illegally its not going to make any difference. And of course we lose our access to travel freely, and work, in Europe. Think I'll hold back on the celebrations.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    See Pence has tried to take credit for the Pfizer vaccine, swiftly followed by Pfizer saying he's talking bollocks and the US government had zero involvement.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Well over my head but there seems to be enough very intelligent people who know what they're on about getting very excited to indicate this is actually genuine good news and a light at the end of the tunnel.

    Is that where the famous herd immunity comes in? If 90% of people are, at worst, going to be asymptomatic does that limit the spread? Are asymptomatic people less infectious?

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Never really thought about it before as we've been dealing with grown ups but keeping a President who has lost in power for another couple of months maybe not the best way to do things. What happens if he starts trying to make as much mess as possible before he is forced out?

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The how long it lasts thing is interesting. If its just a case of having it annually like the flu jab then not really an issue. If it means it wears off and then you're back to square one that's a very different scenario. Assume its the former as that seems to be how it works with other vaccines.

    Great news. Lets hope it all comes good and we can start to see things returning to normal. Timing certainly ties in with other things we've heard.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Even by 2020 standards Rudy Giuliani holding a press conference at Four Seasons Total Landscaping next door to a sex shop ranting mad conspiracy theories with zero evidence to a disinterested media is up there as very odd.

    So confused....

    There's enough coaches and stats people at the club that you'd think they'd be able to identify if we're using the wrong system. A switch away from zonal seems a very achievable thing. Not exactly something radical that will confuse the players.

    Good news if the numbers are stabilising as various head of NHS Trusts have expressed concern they were reaching the point of being overrun. Of course stabilisation of the current numbers is still high, next step is to see them start coming down. My worry is that the current lockdown seems to...

    Sacrifice wing backs

    Not sure we've got the players for what is being suggested. Would also be worried that we'd be under constant pressure. Its great talking about sneaking 1-0 wins but who are you counting on to put away the solitary half chance we get every couple of games in that system? Even from a defensive...

    So confused....

    On the bright side we're getting better. We've gone from thinking have no chance of winning any games and will be played off the park every week to be frustrated at not winning away at Watford in a matter of weeks. We all know some of the issues aren't easily fixable. McFadz isn't going to...

    Too soon?

    No, you always take promotion. Some of us are old enough to remember the annual relegation fights in the Prem. Plenty of people in those days used to say it would do us good to go down so we could come straight back up with a winning mentality. Look how that worked out.

    I think we all know thats not how it will be looked at. Do you really think our owners are going to pump large amounts of their own money in on the chance it keeps us up. And of course even if they do there's no guarantee it works. That's the 'chasing the dragon' method that ends up with clubs...

    Better than him coming on saying everything is great and going to plan. If he's not happy the players will know about it and something will be done to rectify it. There's been high praise of our coaching setup, with the international break now is the time for them to prove their worth.

    Defence

    I'd be worried about how that conversation about funds went. SISU aren't going to put their own money in and run the club at a loss, we all know that. And with no fans in grounds for the foreseeable future and no sign of any money from the government where's the money coming from. The standard...

    So frustrating. Can we stop giving away a penalty every game. Although did look like we should have had a free kick before the pen.

    Gat in. Nice knock down from Max and brilliant finish from Walker.
