I applaud the other 2 people who, alongside me, voted for 1st to 6th place. In all seriousness, we’ll survive. Robins has done a great job and this is acknowledged by just about every neutral in coverage of our games.

In the specific example I replied to was based on B2C movements. Yes, there is a risk of double taxation. But, that isn’t the clearance agent’s fault. Sellers on either side of the channel need to make sure they’re providing the correct incoterms or zero-VAT their goods at sale. Postponed VAT...

Yes you did, as it’s built into the sale of the goods. Again, both the EU and UK are building schemes to account for VAT at the point of sale to streamline the customs processes. It’s mutually beneficial, but not something achievable overnight. Now, EU sellers do not need to build that cost at...

You assume wrong. Every purchase we make, there’s VAT. Being in the EU doesn’t change that. Before, you could buy from Germany, pay German VAT and goods would be delivered as if it was bought from a domestic market (with UK VAT). Post-Brexit, EU sellers should sell goods without VAT now...

The industry is adapting to the requirement ‘statement of origin’. In practice, lots of goods should be zero tariff, but without proof of the goods origin, you cannot claim 0-rated tariffs. When buying abroad, you don’t pay that country’s VAT on the goods. So that should be expected as a...

You do know this guy does this as a joke? It’s funny because we do actually have a bit of a strange accent and idioms.

Wouldn’t mistake viewership with participation. If super league can get a TV deal, so can the Premiership. It’s that they’re asking for too much money. Rugby Union needs to accept it’s a niche sport.

With hindsight, perhaps. But, his stock would have undoubtedly have risen had he performed well in L1. I’d be surprised if there wasn’t some regret that he left us, given our respective trajectories.

I don’t begrudge anyone for looking to earn more. In the short term, he absolutely made the right choice assuming money is everything. But, money isn’t everything and a 4 year contract isn’t a long period of time, and it’s pretty clear his stock will never be as high as it was when we sold him...

Funnily enough, it was British studies that partly influenced the successful Swiss and Portuguese approaches to drugs. In fairness to politicians, the public demand is treat criminals harshly and to treat drug users as criminals. For Tories, their approach should be market based - at least you...

The War on Drugs has been a failure and societal disaster in the USA. The successes countries like Portugal have had with decriminalisation compared to the USA demonstrates the need to change course. Looking at the success of legalisation of marijuana in the US, it wouldn’t surprise me if other...

No denying Speed laid the groundwork, but Coleman came in and changed system to 5-3-2. They had a solid setup, and had the likes of Bale, Williams, Allen and Ramsey who were all playing well. I had the pleasure of watching their 3-0 over Russia. They got to the semi-finals of the Euros...

In fairness to Coleman, he did a great job at Wales. However, his career before and after his career highlight has been pretty mediocre - at best. By all means, I think Coleman would be a great appointment for Sheffield Wednesday. For us.

Could’ve attracted an even better move he performed as well as he did in L1. He ought to be thinking ‘what if’ he had stayed. The consolation is, as you mention, a decent wage for 4 years.

I work in logistics, and even big businesses are struggling to get their operations up and running. It’s been a difficult week so far - but exactly what we expected. For what it’s worth, EU exporters are also struggling with the new regulations. But, industry will adapt to the disruption and...

I don’t do any of the Dry Jan or Stoptober. I was more of a typical binge drinker at Uni, rarely having a casual beers. I’ve got a few nice draft beers from Beer52 to enjoy during the Cov games over Jan!

Biamou, Godden and Walker all have scored more from open play then... Not worth 2 million at all.

Sometimes, it’s just better to not get your hopes up...

Just when you start to think we cut out the silly pens...

That’s why Shipley is in the team. The most likely of the ACMs to score a goal. Well worked goal and Dabo has had a stormer!
