The government did sound tough as the riots happened so it’s not even a secret. It happened at the same time Labour decided to release criminals early which predictably went down like a lead balloon. She did plead guilty and she claims she did so because she was allegedly pressured into it.

Ok, what’s the evidence here tweeting specifically incited violence? None. There’s an implicit acceptance in your response that the harshness of the sentence was politically motivated and that’s kind of the point here. 12 months for sexual assault of a minor is a joke and allows predators to...

We’re not even a third way into the season. Last season EMC actually out scored and assisted the same amount of goals as Tats in a lot less minutes. I might even be willing to take you up on a charity bet if you’re this confident? End of the season, EMC has more goals than Tats, winner gets £20...

How do you quantify that specifically? Is there any direct evidence that the tweet lead to violence? Now weigh that up against the 2 women sexually assault where the crime, perpetrator and victims are quantifiable. Under normal circumstances, Lucy Connolly wouldn’t have got 31 months and...

The numbers don’t lie and we have all last season to draw upon.

On immigration, perhaps the political class should do what the electorate has instructed them to do. Every government from 2005 has been elected to control migration and the opposite has happened. If a party was elected maintain/increase immigration, that’d be fair enough because there was a...

Good luck correcting an ‘error’ that wasn’t stated as fact. I said it gives ammunition to those who decry “two tier justice” and in politics and public opinion, perceptions matter much more than reality. Most people aren’t familiar with guidelines and I’m sure if you went around and asked...

EMC is better than Sakamoto and it’s not close. I’m confident EMC will end up with more goals than Sakamoto this season barring injury.

Yep, everyone needs to enjoy the ride because this season could truly be a special one to part of!

You don't need to take my word for it when there's detailed analytic tools that gives you heat maps of the players positions. For example, Rudoni literally only ever in a central position in the box, otherwise he's on either wing (more right than left) creating overloads and that's why most of...

At this point, our form is so strong you look at the fixture list and can't see a game where you think we'll lose. The early warning signs are there though. In our last 2 home games we've lost on 'xG' and anyone at the Watford game will have seen Rushworth stop 2 massive chances for Watford and...

For sure, my views on immigration are reasonable and possibly influenced more by left leaning people than right. On students, the student visa route is being used as a trojan horse for permanent settlement and there's many students transitioning from this visa to the social care route and...

Based on polling, the public generally want 0-100k net migration. Ultimately, the public just want reassurance that migration is controlled and people who do come integrate and provide an economic benefit. Post-Brexit, EEA migration has been cut but unfortunately its been supplanted by non-EEA...

My hope is that we'll remain unbeaten going into the international break. Gut instinct is that we'll lose one between them, probably Sheff U or Stoke but I won't discount Wrexham. Come Jan, I expect us to be proactive in the transfer market because if now isn't the right time to 'go for it'...

A lot of the early comments were harsh, especially v Oxford where it's easy to criticise a wall being in the 'wrong' place after a team scores from it. As Wayne Bridge found out... 😂

For Walsall they lost a key loan player and stuff like this happens lower down the EFL pyramid. With us, the only thing that could hold us back is injuries. We're already managing Haji and EMC's minutes because they rarely finish games and come off the same time most games - recent results have...

Lampard's most successful team as a player was under Mourinho when they went around 1,000 minutes without conceding. When you got past Gallas, Terry, Carvalho and Ferreria - you had to beat Cech in goal. All top teams need good goalkeepers because the opposition will fashion chances no matter...

Starting to see why we bid £5.5m for him in the summer! We definitely should've conceded more goals this season and Rushworth has been a big reason for that.

EMC and Sakamoto positionally are similar, they both start wide and cut in to their stronger foot. See Sakamoto's assist yesterday, and for his goal was in a central position. Heat maps of both players confirms this (season)...

The formation when we play BTA and Haji is 4-4-2. When Rudoni plays, it is a distinctively different shape. It really isn’t ridiculous to suggest keeping our two top scorers centrally and BTA not only our top scorer now, but also 3 goals shy of Rudoni’s goal tally for last season. Add onto...
