    From there, I notice it’s all about risk and compliance and nothing the other way, which is understandable. No obvious way of making complaints/submissions either. Thought this was interesting though:

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It is. Forwhatever reason the referendum has a massive effect on sentiment towards immigration here.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    No they’re not a neutral “don’t mind”. They’re a “happy as it is” Which is qualitatively different. These people could be just as upset with immigration going down as much as up so they act in opposition to both claims “people want more immigration” and “people want less immigration”. Most...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    You can’t say they want more, but no one is. They want it to remain the same. Which means they don’t want less. Concerns about immigration are nothing like what they were 5-10 years ago. Rightly or wrongly most people seem to have decided Brexit sorted that.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    “Remain the same” isn’t a neutral position though. We currently have record immigration so they have to be counted as more positive than not. Generally speaking all polling shows were one of the most tolerant nations when it comes to immigration and most people want immigrants in for shortage...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I know a few who are sick of going to Amsterdam and meeting immigrants who don’t even speak Dutch because everyone speaks English. Say that Amsterdam isn’t the Netherlands now.

    New shirt sponsors next season

    I’d take that. Maybe get a kit that incorporates the Godiva logo too somehow.

    Vik's celebration?

    I thought he was peeking over a fence in homage to Wilson from Home Improvement.

    Rose unhappy?

    Hyam and Wilson arguably. I had Rose and Dabo down to do well at this level so maybe with both it’s a case of high expectations.

    Josh Eccles New Contract

    Concerns about committing to a player who has never had an extended run in the first team mostly.

    Where Will We Finish

    Think we need to win the next three TBH. Got some trickier games like Stoke and Watford at home, Swansea, Blackburn and QPR away where we could find it tough to get 2ppg. The two easier home games and a cup final hopefully against a team safely in third or second.

    Rose unhappy?

    Been a big fan of Rose in L1, but he just hasn’t kicked on how you’d hope since promotion. Some of that is definitely game time, but not all of it. I’d keep him around as a squad player but if he’s throwing a fit I’d let go and take a gamble on the next Rose TBH.

    Im hoping Allen will be back by the Watford game and Palmer who knows, I’ve not seen a timescale given at all.

    Said a week to ten days on 24th Feb. It’ll be 15 days since on match day, so it’s possible.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Think that’s a very good idea TBH, arguably better than Labours IMO, but I’m a bit conservative when it comes to the HoL. Get the selection criteria right and enforce attendance and maybe speaking time and I’d be quite happy. This is half of that, just need to look at how remaining nominations...

    Are you counting the time with Mercer? I’m just going off Wiki stats so happy to defer.

    Mark Robins

    100 more games to catch Gordon Milne. 248 more to catch Storey in first place. There’s an argument half of Storey’s games came pre war which tends to be the cutoff. Already managed more than 50 games more than Hill. Two more seasons after this and I’d argue he’s our longest serving post war...
