    We cannot defend set pieces

    Are we getting to a point where you have to ask questions of the coaching? Surely our players are of a standard where its reasonable to expect them to be able to defend set pieces so what is going so wrong?

    Listening on the radio, was that as good as they made it sound?

    I'd love to have a full squad of players who we would consider Rudoni level but realistically that's not happening. Rudoni started 40 league games last season, is he going to be happy if suddenly it's half that because he's being rotated in and out. And you'd have the same problem with o'Hare...

    Think most of us could have predicted that. Nice to see players returning and on the bench.

    Things that make you happy

    At least you get it! I had a flight back from Denmark cancelled by BA. There advice was to sort my own hotel and if I could find a more suitable non-BA flight to book that and claim compensation. So I did exactly that and BA would only pay the £220 delayed / cancelled flight compensation...

    Ok then, who are you rotating? Looking at the appearance stats from last year there’s not a whole lot of rotation going on.

    Had a quick catch up on the Epping trial. Seems it has fuck all to do with the ECHR, what a surprise.

    Who are you dropping from our current starting XI? Or are you thinking he will come back to be a squad player getting a few minutes off the bench?

    Collins gone!!

    Good luck to him, very clear he needs a fresh start. We'll likely never know what happened that affected him so badly but hopefully he can regain some sort of form and resurrect his career.

    Why would any of those countries be in the European Convention on Human Rights?

    12 year old raped in nuneaton

    Sure I've mentioned it before but one of our clients at the last company was a chain of luxury hotels, think £400+ a night. The majority of their staff were immigrants. They were paid minimum wage, they had to live on site in appalling conditions for which rent was deducted. Their 'meals' for...

    When I refer to miniscule numbers I'm referring to the fact that when Australia first implemented this it was after a peak in boats of 278 back in 2012. The policy was introduced in 2013 and up to 2021 a grand total of 38 boats had been stopped. From 2000 to 2019 1,720 asylum seekers bound for...

    Turning the boats round would be great, how are we going to do that? How many boats are Australia turning round, the numbers I can find are miniscule and would make little dent into the problem here. We also don't have conveniently located third country to send the boats to so where would they...

    Looking at what the judges said its common sense tbh, although it won't be taken like that. The thing I hadn't realised from the way it was originally reported is that it was only to leave the hotel temporarily for a few weeks, which does seem a waste of time & money. Interesting that the...

    My personal experience of care homes is pretty much limited to the one my Dad is in. I know that in the years he has been in it has never once been fully staffed, as one point (when the visa rules were temporarily tightened) they had so much trouble finding staff they got put into special...

    We have thousands of vacancies in the health and social care sector. I think pretty much everyone in the country would be happy if the currently unemployed Brits took up those roles but that never seems to happen. If you have essential roles that you can't fill what other option is there than...

    12 year old raped in nuneaton

    We already have a selective process for legal migration, a process which some would argue is too tight. The care system, as an example, nearly collapsed when the rules were tightened. As one example I have a friend who works in the banking sector in London, her husband is a skilled worker, a...

    I'm not trying to be a dick, I genuinely want to understand what you're proposing. If you're saying to stop letting certain people in on the basis that there may be a small percentage risk of them being a rapist how are you applying that. Because as far as I can see unless you're letting nobody...
