    Usyk deserves that. Brilliant fighter. Three stone lighter and he does that. Amazing really. Fury looked as good as I’d seen him for a while as well

    Fury should win purely on size difference but Usyk is quality. Had a soft spot for him since going to the Usyk v bellew fight. As has been mentioned fury’s cut could open up but Usyk has looked vulnerable to the body….really so tricky to call. Expecting points decision and like the shouts about...

    Transfer Rumour Viktor Johansson

    Yeah, I’m all for players being brave on the ball at the back but some of the stuff was suicidal at times. Pinging the ball to a player on the edge of the area (in the middle) with one or two opponents pressing is just asking for trouble Repeating myself but we gave the ball away far too...

    Transfer Rumour Viktor Johansson

    Never saw him as the likely target after comments that he’s not great with his feet. I’d rather have a solid keeper myself but Robins will want that and half decent with the ball

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Kick granny out and tax her ? 😊 For what it’s worth I also agree that richer people can/should be taxed more but even so, I still think everyone will have to pay more for better public services in future unless someone can quickly solve the growth/productivity puzzle* I think for parties to...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You might be surprised but I’m as disgusted as anyone with what’s happened with the water companies (Thames conduct is outrageous) and in more recent times all the ‘covid’/PPE companies (like Mones) that take advantage of/take liberties with the public purse I also think that a lot of the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I agree that there’s obviously been loads of waste and I’d like to think we can find better ways of spending public monies* but I still believe that with an aging (and unhealthy) population, together with a more dangerous world, we will all need to all put more in the pot *You sound like the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yeah, spot on. We’ve never really recovered growth levels from pre financial crisis so the percentages are skewed a bit (and why I agreed with shmmeee about growth), however, that’s why as a country we then need to decide whether we’re all willing to pay more ? Nobody’s putting that on the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Don’t disagree with a lot of that. People talk about cuts and there was a lot post financial crisis but government expenditure as % of gdp is worth looking at (UK government spending as a share of GDP 2023 | Statista). You’ve hit the nail on the head though, we need to find ways to boost...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    ‘Austerity’ gets banded about a lot these days but the stats don’t really back it up in terms of public spending as a % of gdp. The real choice we’ve got is are we as a country willing to pay more for better public services ? Or for FP and others with a slightly different view, whether you want...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Yeah, US has been working on that for a while, especially with essentials like chip manufacture. Bidens also brought in new major China tariffs this week. Chinas internal economy has been struggling, especially property market, so that might hurt but only if others follow suit. I do wonder if...
