    Millwall cup tickets

    This is the issue in a nutshell really. I can't travel hours on a Saturday for games so I'm never going to go to the majority of away games. The only ones I have a vague chance of being able to attend are the likes of Derby, Oxford or Leicester but I'm perfectly happy to accept that I have...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Some good news, well I would term it good but it may depend on your perspective, regarding asylum applications. The backlog has reduced 24% from just before the election and applications are being processed faster.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The idea that risk of losing the left wing vote is down to Starmer and Sultana is one of most bonkers things we've had on this thread and that's saying something. What exactly did the brain trust at Labour HQ think was going to happen when they decided to force anyone with left wing views out...

    Millwall cup tickets

    To implement anything effective for away games you need all grounds to use the same entry system. You'd then have to have tickets tied to a CCFC app with a barcode that updates every few seconds. Even then you would still have issues if people were happy to lend someone their login or actual...

    Embarrassing

    There was a doc on immigration and they specifically highlighted Albania. Young men are being absolutely bombarded with content / ads on social media about a wonderful life in the UK. Of course its all bullshit but they're being taken in by them and then handing over the money to be brought here...

    This is grim (there's a second part to the video but I think you need to go on twitter to see that part)

    Embarrassing

    This is a huge part of the problem. No matter how much evidence you give that they're not 'all coming here' or that they aren't all single males its ignored. Its hard to have a sensible conversation about what is a reasonable number of genuine asylum seekers to take when on one side of the...

    to put that number into perspective there should be 17,000 so we don't even have half the number of probation officers we need https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy7yj0gkl3zo

    Embarrassing

    And there it is, other councils taking urgent action to get cases into court hoping for the same ruling and Farage urging people to get out and protest at hotels which obviously won't help the situation. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp3e221qgeeo

    Embarrassing

    But how is that going to be defined? If there's some event at the CBS and the organisers books 100% of the hotel rooms its still a hotel and I don't think anyone would argue otherwise so essentially we're saying certain types of people shouldn't be in hotels. Who is on the list of unacceptable...

    Embarrassing

    The leader of the council in Epping has given a statement where they pretty much said they won this case because there had been violent protests and there was a fear of further violent protests. Not only does this not seem to match what was said by the judge surely its an incredibly stupid...

    Embarrassing

    Kind of but its not a new hotel so not really a case of them applying to build a hotel when really they want to build something else. The hotel already exists and is operation so this verdict would seem to indicate that a hotel can no longer be classed as a hotel depending on who is staying...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    guys a complete lunatic. “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/aug/12/trump-administration-smithsonian-exhibits

    Embarrassing

    This may end up being a case of be careful what you wish for. First and foremost the decision seems to have been made on the basis that planning permission is required to place asylum seekers in hotels. Going to ignore the legal side of that as I have no idea on what the basis is in law for...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Queens Park Rangers Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Aug

    Have the club said if they're doing anything for the 20th anniversary of the stadium opening? Wouldn't normally expect much for something like that but as we're playing QPR as we did in the first game thought there might be something. Mad to think we're likely to get a much bigger crowd...

    Things that annoy you

    not surprised, what was all that shit with the bus gates in town where they insisted for years they were right to fine people and when it went to court it was ruled all the signs were wrong.

    Things that annoy you

    Just to make me even more annoyed as I can't work out where the images are from as they're literally just 2 black squares (all you can see is number plate and headlights even though the road would have been lit at that time which seems odd), I've calculated the speed assuming its between the two...
