Still available to those needing to build their points… #ClosedShop I genuinely panicked that I’d miss out on a ticket yesterday after realising it was 24+ hours after my sale window opened.

Bit niche, but the egress process needs looking at. It regularly takes 10-15m to get out the ground because the stand empties from the bottom first, then the top. If people can barely get down the stairs without rushing or occasionally, a bit of handbags, it’s not going to go well if there was a...

We all live and hope for the day we break the Deepdale curse. Robins couldn’t do it so if Lampard does… he needs a knighthood and statue.

23/24 was proof that COH wasn’t at the level of Hamer and Vik. The former two dragged us through games whereas COH went missing after Feb. In reality, that 2 month period after his comeback was the best of his career and remains an outlier. He’s having a good season and fair play to him...

Milei is a case study many fiscal conservatives are watching closely. He’s a thoroughly entertaining politician if anyone takes the time to watch his interviews (with sub titles). Clearly a well read eccentric and he comes out with pretty mental things. We’ve got to keep an eye on Argentina...

Is this good for ticketing info? I’ve just downloaded the app now. Seconded on the WiFi. Every ground has problems but it’s quite bad when messages don’t even go through. Tuesday was a nightmare looking for my group!

You say this with zero irony and it’s quite funny. Simple question, would you have let Northern Rock and other banks fail?

What of it? It’s a currency has experienced 8 collapses since the 1950s. The pesos value pre-Milei, collapsed 99% versus the dollar… for context, Syria’s currency dropped 98.5% over the same period. If you really want to go down this route, it makes Argentina’s left wing economic policies look...

Argentina was a genuine basket case, what even is your point in bringing up Milei? 😂 You’ve chosen a terrible example to use here because even poverty of all things is lower now than it was when Milei entered office. The main criticism of Milei’s reforms was the initial spike in poverty and...

PNE’s home record is second only to us! Our games this side of Christmas is a bit gauntlet. If we’re top of the table come 5th Jan, it would take some capitulation to not go up automatically.

All roads lead to Trump… The has got inflation down from 221% to 1.5% and despite “chainsaw” austerity, they’re growing at 5.2%. The turnaround is impressive whichever way you look it. If it’s sustainable, and there’s good reasons to question that in the long term, Argentina could quickly...

Pretty well I’d say. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4gw8qpyvqdo.amp Inflation was 211% when Milei entered office, it’s now 1.5%. Their economic growth figures are projected to be 5.2% in 2025. Poverty did peak as but is decreasing significantly over the last year.

Tough fixture, Stoke’s home form has been impressive. 1-1. If we win at the weekend, it feels like we’ll be unstoppable this year.

I could definitely David Lammy coming out with something like this.

Specifically, I’m interested in the breakdown of non-season ticket sales. There’s a lot noise around the concession prices but if it’s a small %, it’s a storm in a teacup.

The FCS guarantee up to 31.7k for people and firms at that time. Which isn’t a lot for small business, but financial system collapses if people can’t do basic transactions or simple things like wages being paid. Bailing out the banks was a lesser of two weevils. To find common ground, people...

Suppose the government should’ve let Northern Rock and NatWest go to pop and with it, people’s savings…

The scenes at Villa Park are interesting… crowds waving Palestinian, Iranian, Syrian, Lebanese flags but of course it was Tel Aviv fans who were going to cause a ruckus…

Tactical voting works both ways and both main parties have hitherto been too hubristic to consider electoral pacts. This was evident in 2019 when pro-remain parties split the vote, whilst the Brexit Party stood aside in Tory seats. The funniest example was a ex-Tory Lib Dem fighting Chelsea and...

Did somebody say Singapore-on-Thames?! A lot of people felt this about Meloni in Italy and so far, it’s gone reasonably well for them.
