    Peterborough

    We didn’t “keep Baka and Max”, we signed Chaplin, who is currently in the play offs for the EPL, and made us a tidy profit to sign Godden, who got us promoted to the Championship. Our style of play is never going to produce a 30 goal striker, Peterborough are set up to made strikers shine and...

    The shushing Shipley

    Youd better not become literally any public facing profession then.

    The shushing Shipley

    I think Shipley doesn’t help because he mixes the arrogance with the complete lack of effort. Always going to rile fans up if you aren’t delivering. If he just did the basics like tracking back and putting his foot in he’d get a lot more latitude (look at Max!)

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Deoends how you define the middle, but the polls in posted show it’s clearly not. Taking the knee was the most divisive topic and it was 37/37 for and against. It’s 80% who aren’t bothered by politics I’d give you that. But everyone has an opinion. And generally it’s “don’t be racist, and leave...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Most issues are around 50% for the plurality/majority opinion. The country is about 55% left 45% right generally. But the 55% is spread across 5/6 parties, including 2/3 reasonable large ones, and the 45% is between the Tories and one of the joke parties like Reform/BXP. Turnout is an obvious...

    Was Central Six there at the same time as the original anarchy bridge, or was the metal version that there’s now built at the same time? I remember walking the old one when I was at primary, so in the 80s, I’d guess around 1990 for Central Six in that case.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Was always going to be the case. “Fully vaccinated!1!1!” Twitter was always going to end up with egg on their face.

    Love it when Islington is used as an insult, when only one of the two party leaders lives there, and it isn’t Starmer. I think the woke stuff isn’t liked, but I don’t think the British public is the 14 year old edge lords you portray them as either. Polling suggests the public support self id...

    Is supply now higher than March? Feels like we’re going faster now. I didn’t expect to get done before I was 40 on previous projections.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I mean technically some people still in their 30s are already eligible, like me cos I’m 40 before 1st July. They seem to be absolutely flying through these. I wonder if it’s just easier to get people or if take up is lower, or just more supply. Edit: just reading that and it’s saying they’re...

    Got a hell of a shot on him too. He was hardly Ryan Giles!

    Tories: get 90% approval on the public’s number one priority by some distance. Something unheard of in post war times. Everyone: is this proof of my own personal theories about Labour??

    Matty James

    I should say compared to Kelly. He doesn’t have the same talismanic properties and we’d need someone who does. Especially if we’re replacing McFadz as well.

    Matty James

    Decent player, better than Kelly, lacks the leadership so we’d need to find it probably at CB instead if we signed him.

    You saying that is probably the best compliment you can give him considering your opinion on O’Hare.

    Not sure when, but this suggests Boots saw it as a “fashion village” like a Lidl version of Bicester Village I guess: https://www.deeley.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/centralsixconstruction.pdf

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Capitalism is the best innovation mechanism we have, and a reasonably good resource allocation method (although modern marketing is kind of skewing that IMO). But it’s not a stable economic system. It rewards monopoly and creates feedback loops that funnel money upwards constantly. It also...
