That is encouraging. Theoretically at least it doesn't rule out a spinal injury but I can't imagine he would have been released from hospital unless it was just something like a trapped nerve or a back spasm. I can confirm from personal experience that back spasms can be excruciatingly painful.

I only said that I wouldn't blame him if he decided to walk away from the thuggery of Championship football. Some things are more important than money. Even if he makes a full recovery he may reflect on the fact that he was probably only a whisker away from serious life-changing injuries...

I just hope that he is well enough to be able to live a normal life again, although obviously I will be chuffed to bits if he is able to play for us again and be at the same level. I wouldn't blame him if he decides he has enough of the thuggery that passes for Championship football. 🤞

We will never know how it might have gone because there wasn't a division on it but I don't think that's really the point. The key points are that (a) the Speaker was put under pressure by Starmer, for purely selfish political reasons, to which he was foolish enough to succumb despite Standing...

No, it was Starmer - the man who has no principles - putting the Speaker under pressure to do something against Standing Orders in order to avoid being embarrassed by a party rebellion. I will NEVER vote Labour while Starmer is party leader.

The problem with lenders taking a big hit from a crash in property prices is that we could end up with another banking crisis.

I agree, he's a very fine player. He also seems to be a really nice bloke from what I have heard. I wish him the very best and hope he is able to play again.

I suspect it is just a gentleman's agreement. The player himself would have to be a party for it to be legally binding and that means agreeing his financial package. Probably just an informal non-binding pre-emption arrangement under which Posh will give us the first chance to try and agree a...

Two nice goals by Simms this week which I think showed that he is gaining in confidence. He kept his calm for both and took them nicely. A player lacking confidence would probably have snatched at the chance he had for his goal today.

We needed a couple of strikers and even half decent ones don't come cheap. Simms and Wright took up a big chunk of the budget. I think we have done well in the transfer market and we will get a few more in over the summer.

That's disappointing. I was hoping they would be playing for us. :D

Siiiiiiiiiimmmmmmssssss! There is a God!

I think Wilson for Collins is the only real surprise. Wilson at his best is a good goalkeeper and it does no harm to have some competition to keep Collins on his toes. Lots on here have suggested that MVE and Tats should be rested and have called for Tavares to be given a game. I'm happy with...

If that's true it's not necessarily something to be unhappy about. Like most fans I want us to get as many good players in as we can but Doug has to manage the club's finances properly. I don't want us to get in the financial mess that Sisu did, which got us uncomfortably close either to...

Their last five, supposedly mainly consisting of rabbits, put on 131. Our last five included Foakes and Ahmed who are all-rounders plus Hartley and Wood who are no mugs and Anderson who can hang around for a while.

Plenty of grip, tyres smoking off the lines at the lights and good at handbrake turns then? 😆
