But is your 11yo being paid many thousands of pounds to do her SAT's, been getting straight A's and is all of a sudden getting E's (or whatever the stupid grading system is now) meaning she's getting dangerously close to missing out on attending a good secondary school that she looked a shoo-in...

If there's anything astounding about how many goals Simms has got it's more due to his mentality rather than ability. Sure, he has deficiencies (his lack of ability to consistently trap a football always surprises me) but in terms of a goalscorer I think he is decent enough. If he wasn't so...

That booing wasn't just a reaction to a single game. It's a culmination of nearly two months poor form, results and tactics that have seen us blow a comfortable lead at the top of the Championship. Fans are feeling a mix of emotions - disbelief, nervousness, anger, even fear we're going to...

Common sense says we're going to struggle, and likely lose. Clutching at straws, we're at home and we have got good results against Boro in the recent past. Even more of a stretch, maybe now we're chasing rather than top some of the pressure will have been released from the players, or maybe...

Yes you have to take risks but there is taking risks and showboating. Sure, try a flick when you've got no other options but when you've got an easy ball to a teammate allowing you to keep possession or backheel it so it goes out of play then that's just idiotic. Taking risks doesn't mean you...

Very technically gifted. Absolutely no football sense. Doesn't keep position, doesn't track runners so seemingly can't or won't follow tactical instructions, and just wants to try fancy flicks allthe time even when they aren't necessary. Looks good on a highlight reel when they come off, really...

Wouldn't be averse to that either.

Need a bit more to break them down. We're looking OK, but that's probably because they're quite poor. Potential subs: Onyeka for Torp Rudoni for Eccles KKH for Dasilva Yang for Esse (though Saka has been booked so could be for him) Simms for Wright (or move Wright to the left instead of...

Wasn't expecting that team. It does give a bit of an impression that FL sees it as an easier game, hence bringing in the two other CB's and also seeming to keep that attacking midfield, though we'll have to see how the team shape up to see if any tweaks have been made.

It's fake. He has his trousers on.

Are Crewe Alexander a team made entirely of people called Alex or is it one Alexander and a load of his mates?

Of course no-one said 'that's wrong' to him. He's a proper nepo baby who's dad was even more of an arsehole than him that treated everybody, including his own family, like shit. He's been surrounded by people there to agree with him and do his bidding his entire life. Given that's he was never...

They should be four-pawed (though that's only double rather than tenfold)

People cannot be on top of everything going on everywhere, so as such are limited to what is available via media. Hence why those get the most attention and discussed the most. Doesn't mean those people wouldn't also be as outraged by what is going on in other places, such as the Congo, if it...

And what about people who block roads to oil refineries or petrochemical plants belching greenhouse gases and carcinogens into the air? Or nuclear plants? Or water treatment plants releasing raw sewage into our waterways? All of these have the potential to cause catastrophic damage to the...

Is that autocorrect?

Firstly, I agree with you on the overall point of animal testing. I'm sure that piece isn't entirely unbiased and it's not the 'they're saying places where they hurt puppies are protected infrastructure!" they're making out. Many of the facilities will do many things that are vital in terms of...

I'm not quite sure how I'd approach this one, which partly shows that we seem to have quite a few options available to us and partly how poor we've been recently. Not wanting to tempt fate or seem over confident, but I would be looking to get at a team like Oxford playing at home. So I'd start...

For the kids.
