Do they still do those things in training whereby if you give the ball away you have to do ten push-ups? Sheaf in a years time

Who says I don't want to remember? I observe the silences. I buy a poppy and am more than happy to wear it. I'm breaking this down into two elements. The first is the commemoration of the servicemen and women. That bit I'm fully behind. The second is how this message is often hijacked and the...

Because 39% are thick fuckers.

Or because growth, expansion and conquest made it too big to control. Also if you invade places and take all it's riches as your own you can hardly be surprised when people in those conquered lands want to move to the place that's taken it. But to be fair to Boris he's doing a great job of...

Personally I'd have no problem with smaller leagues (say 20 per league) and one game per week, preferably played on the Saturday afternoon with a few matches moved for TV. More like the US 'game weeks'. Allow more recuperation for the players and frees up space for the cups. As has been said...

Of course they deserve respect and remembrance and to have done what they did required immense bravery and courage. But the remembrance isn't just for WWI and WWII - it's for every subsequent conflict and not everything British troops have fought for was good. Less than 10 years after WWII...

I'm not saying it doesn't, just that removing them would make promotion a bit of a poisoned chalice because you'd either have to accept an almost inevitable relegation because you couldn't bring in players to make you competitive and anyone decent in your team getting sold at the end having had...

It depends on the level though. Supporting a player on the pitch even if they're playing poorly is great - it's constructive - but if someone on here points out a deficiency a player needs to improve and they get told to shut up and just support the players is cult like. Of course there are some...

Indeed, but when you look at our current way of life whereby it's set up to keep the rich rich and the poor poor it feels very much like the lesser of two evils. Let's not forget that at the time we were still very much a racist, sexist and homophobic country so it's not like we were or are...

I can see the thinking behind it as it massively helps the clubs that come down go straight back up but at the same time if you go up there is a strong chance you'll come back down so if you can't guarantee the ability to pay wages long term you're either left picking up slightly inferior...

I think the infuriating thing about Sheaf is that we know he has the technical ability and the mistakes seem to be due to being too casual and lacking concentration. You would think that would be reasonably easy to rectify but the problem is persisting as if he's not worked out or acknowledged...

I agree entirely with the sentiment but if we're to reach that stage whereby high profile sportspeople (and footballers especially) can just be treated as no big thing if they go out with their boyfriend/husband we're almost certainly going to have to go through the ugly stage of having some...

Though I guess you could make the claim you don't read papers if you're reading the sun. Also, does that first quote really need the word 'papers' on the end?

As I've suggested, move tax away from the arbitrary figure that is profit and do it on stuff like dividends and interest. Never understood why businesses get to use profit to work out tax but people have to have it on gross income. Fucked up thinking. *Actually, of course I know why. Business...

Welcome three points but feel like we made that harder than it needed to be. Still need to improve away from home to maintain this kind of league position.

But don't you feel that if we do concede you jinxed it by turning off?

Not sure about Walker as the lone striker. I'd have gone for Waghorn first. Hopefully he'll get a second and shut me up

I've had that problem after a beer too many.

Extra man in midfield with the sub good choice.
