    Match Thread Blackburn Rovers (A) Sat 16th October 2021 - 3pm KO

    Not sure if I'd swap Hamer for Sheaf as I think we might be even more open at the back if Kelly goes off. But Hamer definitely has to come on. I'd be tempted to save the last sub for Tavares as a wild card. Blackburn are showing how pace helps. With the joy they're having down the wings it is...

    He's one of those strikers that if he's not having an impact on the game won't get stuck in to try and change his fortunes. Heavily reliant on the rest of the team playing well and getting chances for him.

    Teams seems alright as I assume JCS and Hamer aren't fit and Waghorn maybe not ready after Covid. Will go for a 2-2 draw. Just hope none of the defenders get injured.

    Gas and co2 crisis

    It wouldn't have been balmy if they'd cut the gas off.

    Mark Robins article - Daily Mail

    Is that a cover version of the Mark Morrison song?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Thoughts and condolences to his family and friends. It's so utterly depressing where we are and where we're going as a species. I want to believe it'll get better but it's getting harder and harder.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I know they do. Large sections of England that got significantly more back from the EU than they put in voted Leave though. And through that decision now have massive deficits in their funding. No doubt it will be sold on the basis that they can rejoin the EU and get funding from that or some...

    Gas and co2 crisis

    Yep. Even if you were connected to the gas/electric and didn't use any your bills would go up by 23.5% and 67% respectively.

    Brexit Benefits

    Brexit has just highlighted in bright neon lights the problems we have with filling certain roles and the reliance we have had on foreign workers for quite some time. We were struggling to tread water before and Brexit is a massive boulder that has been shoved onto us. The problem of having few...

    News that a Tory MP has been stabbed. Totally unacceptable and I hope the MP makes a quick and full recovery.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Last time they hadn't had a referendum where immediately after they voted to stay the govt backtracked massively on the promises made to them and turned into a conversation about what it meant for England. Lib Dems were in coalition at the time and at the time they polled well in Scotland. Now...

    Gas and co2 crisis

    Not sure why the standing charge needs to increase so massively. If it's the cost of the fuel that's going up it should just be the actual gas/electric going up. Methinks that the companies are using this as an excuse to ramp up prices. Ain't capitalism great!

    Grand Theft Jaffa

    Was the guy who stole from your work canteen stealing from a charity? As I believe your point was it is the act of dishonesty that was the problem, not who that dishonest act was against. What if someone who works for a charity uses some of their worktime to do something non-work related that...

    A lot of the same arguments that were used for Brexit. Do not underestimate what a bit of jingoistic tubthumping can do.

    Grand Theft Jaffa

    It's not like I'm saying he should have just been left off. A final warning would have been suffice IMO. How many people here have taken something from office supplies for personal use? What about other acts of dishonesty like lying? Would even the smallest white lie be worthy of immediate...

    Grand Theft Jaffa

    Considering some of the stuff other officers have got away with getting sacked for not paying for a couple of packs of Jaffa Cakes seems a bit extreme. Needed reprimanding, but I don't think it's sackable if it's a first offence.

    Weight and working out

    First glance I thought you'd written intermittent farting! It'd be one hell of a wind problem if you could lose weight by letting rip!

    M25 blocking

    Something along those lines isn't a bad place to start, but as people like yourself will point out it's highly likely costs would increase massively as a result and politically that's not going to do well for them short-term and so they'll avoid it. Not to mention the diplomatic consequences...
