    Eustace is a genius

    I’d love to see Luton, Hull and/or Cardiff go down. Eustace is a good problem solver, the only question mark over him atm is whether or not he can make a long term impact on a club.

    Luke Bell

    We’ve been linked with a GK already so imagine there’s serious plans to get better coverage/competition in the squad. Especially now we won’t have Dovin for much of next season either.

    You’re right, my bad. If we’re looking more broadly at the wider automobile market, there’s a trade imbalance still. Light trucks and vans make up a relatively small market share.

    Watching the game in the uni library doing my dissertation. 100% regret not being there.

    Why?

    Liberation day

    As part of the new measures, yes. Pre-Liberation Day that figure was one tenth of that. Does this sentiment apply to the EU and Indiawho imposes high tariffs?

    Liberation day

    I’d be surprised if that’s under serious consideration. It’s a pipe dream and nothing more of the American Right. The stated aims Trump has outlined is: - bring manufacturing jobs to America - trade equalisation / revenge - lowering tariffs It’s a bit all over the place but given that the US...

    Liberation day

    What do you mean by that Pete? Pre-Liberation Day, the EU imposes much harsher tariffs on US origin goods than vice versa. Same with India, Brazil and China. In fact, the US had the lowest average duty rate among the major global economies (China, Korea Republic, EU, Japan, UK, Brazil and...

    Liberation day

    China, India and the EU have markets that are significantly more closed than the US. It’s strange to see how in favour people of the left are now making the argument for free trade now that Trump is going against it… 😂 The US automobile manufacturers uprooting jobs from the US, outsourcing...

    Liberation day

    Cars and car parts tend to be taxed differently at the border. The rationale for the tariffs policy is to address uneven trade balances the US has with protectionist markets (e.g. the EU) and to bring some manufacturing back to the US. There’s some sound thinking here but it’s going too far as...

    Initial prognosis

    That’s not good. Is there any truth that rumour we’re after another young GK from the Swedish league, Kees Sims?

    Ex Player Watch

    Last season, you could tell there was a great L1 player in there. He just lost a yard or two of pace that meant he couldn’t quite cut it in the championship. At least how we wanted him to play. Against Oxford in the cup, his movement and finishes for his brace was fantastic. Yes, we were 4-2 up...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Why are you resorting to faux outrage and cheap insults? 😂 Firstly, you questioned how Trump being charged with felonies made him a ‘martyr’. The answer was that it helped him in obtaining the Republican nominee and winning the presidential election. Second, you said it was a disgrace he even...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Burnley FC Match Thread - Saturday 5th Apr

    In fairness, I’m sure my partner would ditch me if i treated her to a romantic getaway to Bradford and Rotherham… 😂 Was this in the same month?

    Either way, even had he been convicted, there was a historical precedent to follow for him to run. The constitution doesn’t prohibit convicted felons from running for president. Whichever way you look at it, you can’t consistently hold the view that it’s right for candidate ‘x’ to stand but not...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The US law isn’t based on your considerations. At the time, it was considered treasonous under the law. Therefore, applying your logic consistently, if treason disqualifies a candidate, that should apply to a politician you hold in high esteem. In any case, Trump hasn’t been convicted of...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    To go back to the original question, was it a ‘disgrace’ for Eugene Debs to stand for president in 1920? Despite the fact he was a convicted felon under the Sedition and Espionage Acts i.e. incitement to rebellion / treason.

    This will backfire on the US in my view.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    No, it’s a knowledge of US history and the US constitution because historical precedents and the law actually matter. You’ve moved the goalposts because Trump hasn’t been convicted of treason, yet you keep referencing Jan 6th. Which, ironically, damaged Trump (and the election denialism) in...
