    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Whether I'm happy with it or not is irrelevant. It was an advisory referendum, the time for complaining about that was when the referendum terms were being agreed. However you could definitely make an argument for a second referendum had remain won, especially if close. You could argue that...

    Appeal Dismissed

    How does that work then? Or does that mean that Gilbert messed up the dates and nobody else bothered to check so reported based off what he had tweeted!

    Makes me laugh that so many people are now acting like this is on a par with the World Cup or Euros!

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Well that's how parliament normally works and we're told that people want parliament to have the power to make more decisions. My personal preference, with hindsight being a wonderful thing, would be for parliament to debate and agree upon our negotiating stance (things like customs union...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    It was always advisory, was no mention at all of it being binding in the Referendum Act. The briefing paper very clearly states 'it does not contain any requirement for the UK government to implement the result'. 50% plus 1 sounds great until you actually put any thought in to it. Cameron...

    Appeal Dismissed

    You'd expect deadlines in legal cases to not have that sort of flexibility! Do they have to give a plausible reason for needing an extension?

    Given the choice between independent experts and a video by Paul Joseph Watson who Wikipedia describes as a alt-right conspiracy theorist I know who I believe.

    Sure SISU will have something up their sleeve. Can’t see them just walking away.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I'm not convinced its all not a big wind up. Trying to make David Davies, who didn't realise we couldn't negotiate deals with individual EU member countries, and Dominic Rabb, who didn't realise we relied on the Dover - Calais crossing, competent we now have leave supporting Conservative MP...

    Match Thread Burton Albion vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 17th Nov

    Second half was poor. We struggle to get back in games when we are put under sustained pressure. The whole team drops deep and we don't have anyone who can get hold of the ball and keep it to relieve the pressure. All we get is an occasional quick break. Six unbeaten in the league is still a...

    That was poor. Everyone just seemed to stop and watch it go in.

    We don’t seem to have started the second half yet. Give the ball to Thomas and get him running at them. Ref seems quick to give a yellow so they won’t be keen to dive in.
