    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You don't have to share you're finances on an internet forum mate! I'm no economist so it's not for me to say what that figure is. I'm just here to point out that you could be paying the same amount on this tax as someone else of an equivalent age, who is single, with no pension as yet or plan...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I really don't know enough about tax law re; corporation tax and how that works, but our tax rules and regulations do seem extremely clunky and over-complicated. Perhaps it's that I just haven't got a clue haha. I find all the differing versions of employment and self employment in construction...

    I agree, it is. But also, you can afford to pay more than most people on your income if you have loads of expensive stuff knocking about. I am in the same boat. I'd happily pay more so that some 20 year old hospitality worker doesn't have to pay the same as me, because a lot of us have been...

    If you have been able to save to afford assets, you don't think it's wrong that you pay the same as someone who has never been able to afford to save? I'm asking that as someone who once had no savings and was on £8.50 an hour in the south east. To think that under this current tax I'd have to...

    Should be records of assets. You charge NI on the pension if that particular person is wealthy in terms of assets (multiple houses etc) and other income streams. I am not stupid enough to realise this isn't a bit of a pipe dream, but it should be obvious the current approach isn't particularly...

    The NHS pension is very good, that's without question.

    Surely would be depend on other sources of income and assets, I don't think anyone is suggesting that a pensioner who has only that source of money coming in then has to pay NI on top of it...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    If you're paid above average, in the current climate you can still be poor. A lot of people don't have the luxury of choice in regards to professions, they make a choice based on the limitations their upbringing / background has allowed for (this also works in the opposite way). Also worth...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    If they can afford it, why not?! Obviously, not all pensioners are in that boat and some struggle. Should be a tax based on relative wealth (inclusive of assets) rather than accross the board. Which is a shame because obviously wealth = you have worked harder and made yourself "better"...

    Yeah I get you, just don't think he's had a long enough run of games to be considered a fair chance. And when he has, he's had a fairly decent return of goals.

    He had a lengthy spell out with an injury, and then he had Covid quite bad. If he's not playing, he can't score very often...

    Just need to be more clinical

    Wouldn't doubt that, we had a lot of good chances first half, I'm just wondering if in 10 games time our xG would continue to be as high? I hope so, but with also considerably more goals.

    Just need to be more clinical

    Do we think our high xG might be slightly inflated based on the opposition we've faced so far? Would be interested to hear of stories where a team that had a really great xG at the start of the season without scoring too many, then turned that into loads of actual goals later on, mainly just to...
