    not difficult is it, you just know they'll make it an over complicated mess.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Someone, might have been Maitlis, said in a talk they gave that the way balance worked was that both sides are given equal airtime. So if you had one point of view supported by 90% of experts in whatever field was being discussed you had to give equal representation to the 10% viewpoint...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    If you watched it you'd know she was on a couple of weeks ago ;) https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002m42n to be fair its near unwatchable these days as is most of the political programming. same old people not answering questions and wanting to get pre-prepared soundbites in.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    First series was decent. Bit weird that it was 3 episodes, and this series seems to be the same. Seemed to be loads of 80s & 90s films about someone frozen being discovered so its not the most original idea but they do it well and it's very watchable.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cewjkn2ww8zo Good news but you know they won't go for the obvious option and will somehow manage to make things worse. Already looks like the most obvious solution isn't the first choice and instead 'another idea'

    Is there anything to actually confirm he was fired? Everything I've seen or heard has been that it was his choice. He's still working for the BBC covering Warwickshire and now seemingly the rugby which surely wouldn't be happening if he'd been sacked or had some big falling out. Maybe he just...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Don't think anyone was that hopefully that it wouldn't fall apart at some point but it has truly been a car crash. And now the way they've set up the leadership just invites months / years of infighting and people trying to take control or push their own agenda while nothing moves forward...

    Things that annoy you

    Same with jobs that list with 'competitive salary'. Just means we want to pay you as little as we can get away with.

    Not sure the delayed flagging for offside really works. There was one on Saturday where they played a ball forward to a player who was very clearly offside. Didn't get flagged as we intercepted the ball but then passed it straight back to them and they went through and had an attempt on goal...

    Next supporters forum 4th December

    You can't really solve this unless you want to put a steward on every exit door in the toilets and even then you've got more chance people would kick off than use the right door. Not sure why so many people are too stupid and / or ignorant to use the right door but what can you do.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Wonder if people will ever grasp the Streisand effect. Kneecap have gone from playing to next to no-one to arena shows, headlining festivals and have now announced they're heading a huge outdoor show in Crystal Palace Park next summer.

    It was so blatant I thought I must have missed something. One of those that you get home and watch the replay and it looks totally different to what you saw live. However having got home and watched the replay it looks even worse. I can't see any way anyone can justify that as the correct...

    Wood out, reoccurrence of his knee injury. Once again showing how idiotic it was to send him out to bowl after he’d injured it in that Champions Trophy game.

    Not sure what the answer is but even Saturday games now its been noticeable how many empty seats there are in there.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Charlton Athletic Match Thread - Saturday 29th Nov

    Too many overconfident people today. We seem to have swung from 'take a point' every game to expecting to give them a battering. Hopefully Frank has the team focused and not thinking they just need to turn up to win.

    Things that annoy you

    Seems like you only need a day or two of not exactly biblical downpours and everything is fucked. The last time we had an overnight downpour my commute to work increased by an hour every day for a week while they worked out what to do.
