    Things that annoy you

    No. Nothing to do with the council. My Dad was a councillor about thirty years ago is probably what you’re reaching for. There’s a COP (Conference of Parties) for a lot of international agreements. This one lead to the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement. The first was 1995 so there’s been...

    Manchester Airport Incident

    Just going to drop this out there: When politicians tell you that everyone else is corrupt and not to trust the media or the police, it’s not because they’re sincerely got your best interests at heart lads.

    Manchester Airport Incident

    Starting to think you might be onto something with this two tier kier stuff. The difference in response between the Barbour Appreciation Society and Just Stop Oil bringing London to a standstill was stark.

    Things that annoy you

    But if a world leader can reduce carbon emissions by say 200 megatons by spending 50 tons on air travel that’s a net benefit, that’s the entire point. I’m guessing you’re one of the anti electricity types and don’t actually care about world leaders carbon output though.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I think if at this point you’re frothing at the mouth about a fairly middle of the road government that’s not done much, you probably need to check your media diet. The reaction from the right really has been like Trump Derangement Syndrome in 2016.

    It’s not me that’s been screaming chicken little about relegation. Well, not until Lampard was rumoured :P

    There’s one a year. You want world leaders to take the bus around the world? What are you even angry about?

    It’s not the sacking per se for me Quinn, it’s the clear meddling in the “deck” (saying we have enough midfielders, strong opinions on squad quality which aren’t borne out on the pitch, strong opinions on loans), and the ridiculous managerial candidate it seems he’s going with (big name, friend...

    It’s what you lose with no leadership and seemingly players not giving their all. The sort of matches decided by mindset not talent or luck.

    No same. He’s stepped up and fair play to him, I still think half his job has been done by a few stopping sulking. But I’ve seen nothing that suggests he’s some great tactical mastermind. Which considering he was first team coach under Robins is hardly surprising.

    Point is not many championship clubs disappear because they couldn’t find a buyer. Once we hear about a buyer talks are well progressed behind the scenes to the point there’s only one realistic party.

    Robins beats a ten man team (even if the red was the last ten minutes): “Barely even a win, basically a gimme” Carr fails to beat a ten man team: “Going against a ten man team is really tough, we broke them down in the end”

    It’s a lot more difficult to break down when you play one up top and play all your football in front of them.

    He’s making all the classic mistakes you worry someone new to the sport with a large ego would make. The main one being thinking you know more about the sport than the people who have been living it their entire lives.

    Saw someone talking about Spurs’ “difference between their ceiling and their floor”, feels like we’ve had a lower floor than ever and our old floor is our new ceiling. Basically we’ve moved into a lower level flat.

    My personal hysteria is around the fact our owner is a moron and I really really hoped he wasn’t. Just getting 2004 vibes from this whole thing. I don’t want to go back to 2004 (well, not in football).
