    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    What a man. Basically reads like the archetypal racist (tropes, jokes, and stereotypes), who gets all upset and insulted about being called a racist. Given the Tories nonsensical Extremism bill calls for public funding to be withdrawn from "Extremists", presumably we'll need to look elsewhere...

    Wolves FA cup Quarter Final

    No worries mate. We'll hold them to nil in the first half, and then hammer them in the second. As long as we win the toss it'll be a great view. 😄

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Yep, and as soon as you bring in Time Travel (e.g. original Star Trek), or brought someone back from the dead (e.g. Game of Thrones), you've reduced jeopardy and diminished the story, imho. The best "Phew, it was all a bad dream" catastrophe scenario was done in Captain Scarlet I reckon, in the...

    Do we even miss Hamer?

    I got to the point where I actually preferred Gus to Viktor, just because when he was on it, he was everywhere on the pitch and brilliant to watch. I don't think coming back would necessarily be a good thing for anyone though, even if it was possible. I'd be happy to give it a try though!

    Death List 2024

    Or it's just people that take a bit of care about what they say and do around sensitive issues, in particular try not to punch down, and occasionally call out the types who immediately hide behind "its just bantz innit" or "I'm not a racist but..." kind of statements. Implying it's a mental...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Not sure I agree with you entirely on this mate, as I'm sure you're aware, but that is a well argued case. I think my primary concern is what you see now with Starmer and Reeves, is what you get later. I don't sense any accommodation with even centre-left policies under those two. I sincerely...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The average voter doesn't seem very happy with what the Tories are doing to the country and public services. They don't seem too fussed about either tuppence off NI or a decrease in CGT. It seems that in fact it's the cost of living and the running down of public services that matter. 2p off...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It's a bit like the Gaza ceasefire thing mate, from where I sit anyway. It might be political trickery, but there's no denying it exposes their true position.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Reeves is odious. Channels all of the worst elements of Thatcherism, in speech, dress, and seemingly and more significantly, beliefs. Labour would do well to keep her out of the limelight, or it will become obvious what the party has turned into.

    Death List 2024

    I'd not heard of the Bullseye serial killer before. Blimey, the things you learnt on here... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cooper_(serial_killer)

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    If you think that's bad, don't turn over and watch Rachel Reeves on Peston. Tax going up on the lowest paid in this budget (because tax thresholds remain frozen) what will Labour do about that? Answer, vote it through unopposed. Proposed Capital Gains Tax cut, benefitting primarily people...

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    Think of it like this @wingy... Simms is 125% the name that Daka is, and Daka is only 80% the name that Simms is. So basically then, Simms is 45% better than Daka. Glad I could clear it up for you. 😂

    Hey! I resemble that remark. 😄

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    Slight aside... is it just me, or has Simms slimmed down a bit? For clarity I'm not saying he was ever overweight, but watching on the telly the other night I thought he looked a bit lighter. Probably it's just the horizontal hold on the TV is broken...

    What would our survival odds be if we went up?

    If my career could be over in an instant, then I'm pretty sure I'd take the money when I got a chance. I know where you're coming from, but from a financial point of view the gamble has already paid off.

    Death List 2024

    You're never more than a few miles from a canal if you're in the Midlands, HH. It's just sticking to the 4mph limit that's a bit tricky. 😁 Favourite Bullseye phrase, "Ooh, look what you could've won." Terrific telly though. Quality 80s outfits, barnets, and moustaches. Some genuinely tough...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Indeed, though if I spotted him on my flight I might hop off and wait for the next one. 😄

    We miss you Fadz

    Yeah, that's a very fair point. It does feel like we're missing a bit of physicality in the team though. I thought Thomas might be the answer to that, but I'm not quite so sure now...

    As above, trivial point but cope isn't a noun. Unless you're street. Bruv. 😁

    In fairness, they're intensely libertarian when it comes to them and their rich donors. It's just the rest of us that they like to keep in order.
