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

    It was as a proof to another poster who claimed Brexit would win over 400 seats in a GE. This shows, just weeks after polling more than double any other single party in the EU elections, they didn't win a by-election. Yes, it was quite close but I said originally I expected Brexit to win votes...

    What does the squad need to be complete.

    I think that you've got to include everyone on a pro-contract, esp if you're going down to third/fourth choice. It gives a clearer idea of who needs to be moved on to make space and free up wages. So therefore: -----------Marosi------------- -----------Wilson-------------...

    Women's World Cup 2019

    I'll be watching it - it can be just as exciting (and sometimes more so) than the men. What makes a sport is parity of opposition so having a shit team playing is fine if they're playing another shit team. Watching the likes of Man City in what is often a glorified training session grows thin...

    New Signing - Fankaty Dabo

    Brown may go to free up wages. I think one of the strikers would be allowed to leave if it allowed him to bring in another - most likely Bakayoko, but depends on who generates interest I suppose. After that it depends on if someone wants to sign some of the youngsters like Maycock, Bosma...

    New Signing - Fankaty Dabo

    Seems a good signing and another at a good age. Probably need a second unless MR thinks Hickman is up to it. Think we might see some movement out now to make space for new arrivals.

    Trump is here

    To be polite I'll answer the question. I think he's got a decent chance of getting re-elected. It's pretty much a two party system (even more so than here) and they've got a huge amount of tribalism in being Dem/Rep and will vote for that candidate regardless. Added to that he's a very well...

    Trump is here

    This surely must be a joke. There are few people on this planet who are more self centred and only care about themselves more than Trump. He's also been shown to lie in pretty much everything he says or tweets. When someone criticises him even in a constructive manner he responds like a...

    Any business minded people who can help/give advice?

    Pleased to hear you've considered and researched a lot of those points. The fact you have a least a small amount of experience in the lettings industry, even if not as a letter yourself, is useful too. I've tried to have a think on other sources of capital. There will be trade shows and...

    Trump is here

    I agree entirely on him refusing to go to the state dinner etc. and that the problem of anti-Semitism in his party he should be doing more and being more vocal on the issue. However, it does seem to be that this is being far more heavily focused on in the media than similar issues in other...

    Trump is here

    As much as Trump is a vile human being doesn't have the intelligence to run a school fete, he is (somehow) the elected leader of a democratic nation and should be treated as such by our representatives. However, this thing about trade and being an ally, his speech (and those of many of the...

    Rules you would change

    Maybe make it that there is no break in play to do it, like line changes in ice hockey. So while you're making the change it's not wasting time and you could have a player out of position for a short time.

    Spice Girls

    If some of things being suggested are true, like opening the gates and not checking bags, then that's seriously dangerous and needs enquiries made . But a lot of the complaints on queues etc aren't new - they've been the same since it opened and even occurred with big crowds at HR at times, esp...

    Robins or the Ricoh ?

    Normally, I'd be of the persuasion that the manager is replaceable as whenever we have the discussion as to whether we should let him go when another team come calling, we end up saying no and foregoing compensation for him and then six months later we're on the slide and sacking them, resulting...

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

    I agree that I don't like the way the EU is run. But the UK government is hardly much better. Mainly run for those with wealth, power and influence and favouring their mates and associates. We get no say in appointments to the second house of parliament. We don't even get to choose the PM -...

    Any business minded people who can help/give advice?

    Not having a property to sell to help fund is a big setback, and the businessplan is essential. Would you just be choosing to leave your job or is it due to potential redundancy and there would therefore be come sort of redundancy payment which could help a little? I'm assuming you've no...

    Any business minded people who can help/give advice?

    If you're looking at the properties as a business venture rather than a home then your ability to raise a bigger mortgage might be improved. What condition are the properties in - would you be able to open up pretty much straight away or would it need work and the money you need also have to...

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

    I find this very confusing. Who is 'bigging up' the benefits of WTO and hard borders? If you're referring to me, I'm not 'bigging them up' and certainly don't see any benefits to them - I think they'd be terrible. I'm stating those are the realities of what is likely to happen as the only...

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

    I'm not arguing that the Scottish independence movement is full of inconsistencies in being anti-UK but wanting to stay in the EU. It wasn't long ago Salmond et al were saying they'd reject the pound and take the Euro. Then the Euro crashed and suddenly they wanted to keep the pound. If after...

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

    They'd desire it but if Westminster took back central control they wouldn't be allowed to - Britain wouldn't let them.
