    England squad

    In qualification, Southgate set records for goals scored. I went to a 5-0 demolition of Albania in 2020 (?) and we played superbly, even though it was a 3-4-3. I’m in two minds. On the ‘optimistic’ side, you don’t get style points for demolishing sides and the only important thing is getting...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    We’re at the point of the window where anyone we sign fits that criteria. With Da Silva, it’s a ‘hit and hope’ signing. We’ve just got to get to Jan and be aggressive in the market. I can’t help but think there’ll be a change in the recruitment staff before then.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Jones came off 3 ACLs back to back and is a top end L2 player which where all this started. His ‘ceiling’ was definitely killed off though. DaSilva is a different case altogether but why couldn’t he get back to his old form? The immediate expectation of him will be to fill in occasionally.

    England squad

    Went to the game, it was a bore fest. At what point do you get concerned about Tuchel? Say what you like about Southgate, we always looked convincing in qualification. Even under Carsley we looked much better against stronger opposition.

    I’ve not made the claim this will trigger an election. My view is that this autumn budget will go down like a lead balloon and the bond markets could lash out against us again, that really would put the government on the ropes. Frankly, the Tories should’ve called an election after the Boris...

    Looking at how many ‘resets’ this government had and recent history with the Tories, this government doesn’t get to 2028 imo. Frankly, a general election next year in 2026 isn’t an outlandish view to have anymore.

    Self-referred after the story broke. Resigned before the journalists dig deeper into the sale of her share of the property to her son’s trust because outlets are reporting something dodgy is at play there. It’s a classic case of damage control. She let her colleagues embarrass themselves...

    Labour members will elect a deputy leader so this is where things may get tasty. If they elect someone who is at odds with Starmer's government record so far, it will be a source of friction/rebellion.

    Torp X factor

    It's not a bad thing, people need to recognise that it is sustainable for so long. If we can get him chances in the box (like the Man U goal that was chalked off), we'll have a midfielder who will be amongst the top scorers in his position and this is exactly what we need.

    The true scandal might not even be the stamp duty btw. There's something potentially v dodgy going on with her house as the £650k valuation that was used to sell her share is close to double similar properties in their area. The fundamental difference is that in opposition, Labour made a play...

    “Right wing conspiracy” Judging by the voting habits of Hove, I doubt the graffiti artists of Rayner’s home are right wingers. They could be, but an equal chance they’re ‘eco-populist’ Green voters who disdain tax evaders.

    I think she misled her solicitors personally. That’s my ‘gut feeling’. In fairness, there are exemptions out there for guardians of disabled children so there may have been a reason to believe an exemption could be claimed. However, there’s no evidence right now where she’s declared this to...

    The guidance is on HMRC. If your child owns a property, for stamp duty purposes you are the owner of it. Rayner was She knew what she was doing, she sold her share in a property preemptively to claim she only owned one property. Let’s be honest, if it was a Tory politician, we’d all be...

    That’s now £50bn after one year of Labour and it’s all because of the Tories…

    The Tory part chairman is claiming that gov.uk provides clear guidance that the full second home stamp duty is payable if ‘you/your child’ owns a property even via a trust. She took her name off the deed fairly recently which raised eyebrows before this story broke. Why? It feels dodgy because...

    People are only holding Angela Rayner to her own standards and her mates in government and the media (Beth Rigby) are upset about it. Avoiding £40,000 in stamp duty is more than the median worker’s annual salary and she has the temerity to cosplay as a working class hero? She is part of ‘the...

    @shmmeee Ed Balls of all people has just called Rayner a hypocrite and that she should resign… 😂 It’s not looking good brav.

    I respect your commitment to party politics, you can’t genuinely believe there’s no double standard here. Would you have the same sympathy for a Tory in the same situation, I suspect not. With Zahawi, he also made ‘an error’ that was ‘careless, not deliberate’ despite tax advice he would have...
