    Mental Health

    Always darkest before the dawn mate. Days are getting longer, vaccines on its way, this time next year we’ll be watching City play Championship football hopefully in Cov and all this will be a memory. Try and improve/learn something always helps me. Weight lifting, weight loss, language...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yeah totally, the biggest chunk of voters are centre left and socially conservative. Those are the “Fund the NHS and hang the pedos” voters that read the Sun and the Mail. They voted Blair in 97 because he promised to fund public services and be tough on crime. That was Boris’ play last year as...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Sorry this is just delusional. You cannot win an election on students alone. It’s just not possible, the numbers aren’t there. Corbyna electoral strategy was always batshit wishful thinking. We tapped out the left liberal vote in this country, there is no “running with it” unless you want to run...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Im not blaming Corbyn, I’m pointing out that there was only one way out of the hole he left us in and that was distancing ourselves from Corbyn. He was that bad. Am I happy with where we are? Not really, though until the last month the progress has been good. But it is weird times. Most...

    Transfer Rumour Jack Clarke

    Just looked up how he’s doing. He’s only on 4K/week. Whether he’d have worked out is a different story, but there’s no reason we couldn’t have signed him from the looks of it.

    Sheff Wed postponed

    Huh? It’s not been cancelled to reduce COVID spread. The players who tested positive already have it.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Four years from an election is not the time for policy. Not at all. Just hands endless ammo to your opponents for no actual benefit. The next couple of years are still about detoxifying the brand, and that means as much distance from Corbyn as possible, and moving to take back lost ground with...

    Definitely.

    Sheff Wed postponed

    Been trying to find the EFL guidance. But for EPL apparently the rule is if you’ve got 14 fit registered players you play the game. Edit: totally misread your comment. That’s a good point too!

    Sheff Wed postponed

    Honestly don’t see why it’s postponed. I remember Middlesborough refusing to play a game because of illness once years ago and they forfeited the three points. Play the kids.

    Filter bubbles and all that but weirdly I’d seen a lot of people praising him in PMQs today, though also saying he needs more “oomph”. Let’s be honest here, the problem is we have no credible leadership material. I voted Nandy but for policy not because I thought she’d be a great leader. I...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Literally no one gives a fuck about this stuff. That’s why election campaigns can make such a difference, for a majority of voters it’s when they actually start forming opinions. Generally the pandemic has given a lot of cover to the Tories. Daily press briefings, chancellor handing out stacks...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Jesus. On a walk at lunch with a COVID skeptic mate and I almost mentioned “1500 a day dying” and caught myself thinking “don’t overegg it”, turns out I would’ve been underplaying it.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Actively I think. I’ll check with the missus who has been studying when she’s home. I assume it’s some thing to do with not being tested on pregnant people so just to be sure. People who are trying could be pregnant and not know it. For what it’s worth, there’s no evidence the Pfizer vaccine...

    Striker?

    Indeed. And we’ve never had both fully fit at once.

    Striker?

    Different league different tactics. He said when he signed Walker he was looking at playing him with Godden, we’ve gone two up on several occasions when we had more than two strikers. And it doesn’t change the fact that neither Walker or Godden are the right style of player to play on their own...

    Yeah I saw this in the training last night, pregnant women/women trying to get pregnant can't take the vaccine.

    Striker?

    I don't think we'd play one up front if we had two Championship quality strikers fit. And if we are going to keep playing one up, and with it be more direct than we were last season, then annoyingly neither Godden nor Walker are the right type of player to play there. I guess the alternative is...
