    Redundancy

    Not had direct experience of redundancy but at my last employer I was on a secondment at the next grade up when redundancies were announced. My secondment was unwound and salary dropped by just over £20k. Found out about it on the first day of my other half’s maternity leave.

    Things that annoy you

    As soon as you start with “North Nofolk” you better believe I’m reading the rest like Alan Partridge.

    The ‘wobble’ month

    Was always going to be the case, so many of us had earmarked this run as the trickiest of the season so the fact we’re slowing down a bit shouldn’t be a surprise. 4 from our next 3 sees us at 48 at the half way stage, which is still on pace to win the league.

    Match Thread Preston North End FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 9th Dec

    Haji absolutely nowhere near the ball and given offside. Ridiculous.

    F1 2025

    Is it absolutely mental to have a flutter on Alonso to win the WDC? He’s proven this season he’s still well capable and if the car is as good as it potentially could be then 22/1 looks a tasty price.

    Immigration and Asylum

    Cab’t say I know for certain but don’t they tend to slow/stop at this time of year because of the weather?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I don’t disagree with the concept of charging for services to dissuade misuse but it also runs the risk of stopping those poorer individuals/families accessing healthcare as they may not have a tenner spare if it’s towards the end of the payday month and something happens. Could you run a...

    Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Dec

    First game this season that I’m going to struggle to watch. Rather annoying.

    cricket 2025

    I don’t think anyone begrudges them some downtime but the prep for the last few Ashes series over there have been embarrassing.

    cricket 2025

    Is there still the option of an extra half hour in a D/N match? Could see this over if so.

    World Cup 2026

    Why are they having mid-draw interviews? This whole thing is pathetic tbh.

    World Cup 2026

    Genuinely didn’t know how the format would go, not paid it any attention. 12 groups ffs.

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Maybe it’s just my American xenophobia shining through but, assuming they do actually build the stadium, I only see this being leased to the club for a potentially crippling rent. Not a cat in hell’s chance any of the ‘sports quarter’ revenue makes it off Knighthead’s books (unless sold).

    Potential summer signings from the Championship

    Need to add a minimum of 3-4 who are proven. I get the argument behind returns on players, but if you view the fact that ‘if’ we stayed up then we get another £120m or whatever it is, that’s your return on the proven players. I wouldn’t abandon the younger players entirely, but they are not...

    Things that annoy you

    Christmas lights. 2 attempts at hanging them this weekend, both failures. Was just stood on the drive shouting at them to fuck off in the end; bet the neighbours were pleased.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I know, and it’s kind of my reticence with it. But it needs solving somehow. Is it a bonkers idea for the NHS and DWP to share data to ensure they don’t put people through unnecessary stress? Referencing my (theoretical) idea of the 60 year old with no legs getting hauled to a meeting.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    In prison for drug trafficking? You get a pardon. In a boat that ‘might’ be drug trafficking? You get a missile.
