Massively agree on this, and spoke to a doctor recently who is completely disillusioned with it all. The profession seems to take a conveyor belt approach now, and you’ve got 10 minutes to get to the bottom of the problem. I also wonder how much of it is the general public’s psyche as well - I...

If the data says no to opening up more then that means that, at this stage, the vaccine programme has not been sufficiently delivered so as to prevent high levels of hospitalisation and death. You’re getting dangerously close to a “rather let bodies pile high” situation with the track you’re...

Amazingly, things also change over time. I love a government-bash as much as the next person but expecting them to have a perfectly crafted plan comprehensively covering the last 15-16 months just isn’t realistic.

If the data says no to what? Stop getting caught up on “mutant strain” nonsense. It’s peddled by shite like the Daily Express who, in the past, have claimed that it would snow continuously for 40 days. Their track record for honesty is rather flimsy.

Yes, it was to be expected. The issue (as has been pointed out close to 100 times by now) is that cases going up is an early warning sign for hospitalisations/deaths going up. Now, we’re all hoping that doesn’t play out and the early signs suggest this to be the case. However, it is thought by...

Best stay in your box then! ;)

Real Madrid, so ridiculously hard-up that the only way to alleviate the pressure is to join the ESL, have decided to offer David Alaba a 5-year contract worth €25m per year.

Seen him trying his hand at golf down at Bramcote driving range. Safe to say he won’t be making the pro tour anytime soon.

On a separate note, I notice a rogue apostrophe in the title. Did we ever have an update from itsabuzzard?

That’ll teach them. Naughty billionaires.

Not saying this has happened (or will happen) but what if we had ‘signed’ 6 players and not announced them, then did it all in one go? Could that even be possible? I’m guessing the media would at least get a whiff of it. Humour me, I’m just playing with ideas here.

I’ve turned to drinking electric instead for a truly sustainable source.

Reece Burke and Sam Field would have been of interest, albeit there was a fee paid for Field.

Don’t get this at all. Why are they running a competition to be a city? Do you get a Mini Cooper and £50k tax-free cash thrown in?

Yes, but probably don’t put as much weight into it as a normal family would. As someone previously mentioned, it’s not uncommon for players to commute from a distance or rent locally during working time - Godden still lives in the South East if I’m not mistaken. There’s always been an...

Quite. Fans demanding swashbuckling football - you only have to look at the fans’ pick of the starting XI on Sunday to see how ridiculous our expectations are and how lacking we are when it comes to knowledge of the tactical side of the game.

I’d be surprised if he goes before the World Cup considering there’s only a year between the two.

I can only see this ending in sportspeople leaving social media for good.

There is absolutely no chance this happens, but I’d love us to go for the Barnsley method of a triple attacking change at half time. Start with Grealish-Kane-Sancho and then switch to Rashford-Foden-Sterling. Yes, Phil Foden as a false 9. Would be bonkers.

Deon Burton?
