    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There is little financial benefit for most small/accidental landlords these days. I was reading an article the other day, lots are selling up or planning to. Very few new properties are bought by landlords Most of the BTL properties being sold are bought by owner occupiers, this reduces the...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    They can’t have it all ways, a military cap, no foreign troops on ground and no NATO. Just asking to be invaded again I do think agreeing not to join NATO would be part of any settlement but if Ukraine agreed to the rest they’ll be left exposed I also don’t see ukraine agreeing to no demand...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Expected requests but not really realistic. Hopefully there’s a willingness to move on a few of them otherwise there’s never going to be a negotiated end

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    On the right you’ve got some larger self interested developers, in the middle you’ve you’ve NIMBYs, on the left you’ve got ideological planners (I could tell some stories - mostly Labour councils that blocked/delayed developments)…throw in loose migration policies adding millions to the...

    Almost comical if it wasn’t such a serious subject

    Viktor Moving on

    Think they agreed last summer that if he stayed for an extra season they wouldn’t hold out for full release clause fee

    Scumberland or Shitefield ?

    Agree but they’ve been poor and prem teams would take their chances against them. Just felt like luck was on their side against us* and then again today *summed up by the wright and Ballard headers.

    Wright

    When will some understand, the lone striker role in our set up can be a thankless task. Got the attention of two CBs for most of the game and against a team with a low block not much opportunity to run into channels/run in behind and turn defence….both Wright and Simms strength. Yeah, both are...

    Ellis Simms playoffs reason not played

    I still think he’d have been more of a handful than Wright in the second leg

    Eccles

    Finally showed Lampard what we’d all seen first half of the season (when he was one of the only players to perform). Looked a far better, more mobile partner to grimes than sheaf last night. The blocks got the attention but check out pass to Wright on 72 mins or so straight after he came...

    Ellis simms

    Wasn’t simms playing through an injury recently ? Either way not quite worked for either of them this season. Might get decent money for Wright and would imagine he won’t fancy another year in the championship so probably best to part ways. Simms is a real conundrum. I still think there’s a...

    Lampard

    Passion, emotion and an obvious connection with the players. Hope he stays. Would imagine prem clubs might come sniffing at some point though, especially if we start next season well (which would be nice for a change !) Always been a fan of Lampard, as coach and as a person but he’s not...

    Pace and Flair

    Got Rudoni as well but he looked out on his feet. Wright is another with pace and ability but never saw it last night

    We were by far the better team. That Ballard has been immense for them though to be fair

    Need to start missing a man with passes when we win possession. Played really well last 20 mins, need to work the keeper at least from these half chances. Also need more from wright, he usually steps up in the big games.
