    What’s it all about?

    I’ve always found coffee suppresses hunger a bit. Oat milk (no added sugar) if people don’t like black is a good shout

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Right, this is a long, dull one so anyone reading this make sure they’re sitting comfortably. Id read the above article earlier today and assumed everyone else had when commenting on Bidens economic performance, however, I follow the U.S. economy quite closely and I personally think its way too...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Agreed. It’s only right to look at why there’s differences and I don’t doubt there might be specific issues relating to government policy, Brexit etc. I’m just saying I don’t think they’re the main reasons and that giving BoE a pass when it’s their sole job to control inflation whilst blaming...

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    Yeah, this might be the difference in terms of Fadz and the team this year. Last year he was the one that held the backline together, with a little help from Bidwell, due to the inexperience of other players. Basically when he didn’t play we looked all over the place. Hopefully this year will be...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It wasn't my intention to spin anything, more just commenting that each country will have their own inflation challenges depending on food growth, energy generation/reliance on wholesale market, currency fluctuations, labour market etc etc so there will be a multitude of reasons why inflation...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You’re talking like other European countries aren’t struggling with inflation. We’re 1.5% more than EU average but some of those countries, like Germany have been in a mild recession, which helps reduce inflation. Our food price inflation is higher (17.3 v EU av 13.8). This is partly through us...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    haha, not touchy, I just never agree with this ‘PMs can’t go on holiday’ stuff Interest rates aren’t a reflection on state of the country. They’re used as a tool to try to control inflation by encouraging less spending (corporate and personal) and more saving. Bond rates can be a reflection of...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I know. My point was that if we’d been more aggressive with rate rises/stopping QE earlier we maybe wouldn’t still be increasing rates now. Im not just blaming BoE, a lot of this ties back into post pandemic supply/demand issues and the war causing energy price shock. I just think if they’d been...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    QE* pumps more cash into the economy which increases asset prices and can cause inflation (its not obviously the only cause obviously, supply side issues post pandemic and war were major ones) *presume you meant buying other financial assets not selling Edit - I was googling when Andy Haldine...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    If we’d stopped printing money earlier and increased rates quicker ie higher earlier (when inflation started to increase) rather than small increases over a long period we might not have to still be increasing now into a weak economy. Even BoE have finally admitted as much. Many had been saying...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    . There is no doubt that Truss caused a spike in mortgages rates (and anyone who had to change mortgages in the period pre Sunak would have a good argument for reimbursement) but inflation has stayed high so BoE has had to continue to raise rates anyway. Mortgage rates now are nothing to do...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    That’s a strange comment Tony. It’s school holidays so when’s he supposed to go on holiday ? It’s also BoE decision to increase interest rates. If they’d done this more aggressively a year/18 months ago, maybe we’d have a little bit better control of inflation now Ps he should never have said...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I’m not having that DOD. According to Biden and his supporters maybe but a lot of their facts are questionable/challengeable and there’s plenty of stuff that’s not mentioned by them and elements of the press. It’s also impossible to judge a PM/Presidents economic performance on first two years...

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    He could be in trouble then as Vik only cost us £1m so Wrights gonna have to score in excess of 100 goals this season (maybe even 150 if 7m+ fee is to be believed) to keep you happy 😉 You know it doesn’t work that way though. Should we expect a lot of him once he’s bedded in…of course, but...

    Where will We finish

    Like the recruitment but so many haven’t played here before, so all depends how they bed in and gel. Would be disappointed if we weren’t top half/in and around play offs even without hamer. Think we’re in for some exciting football either way, just hope the moaners give the new lads some time
