SBT (Talk not Trust) has also never had an issue. Mark and Pete confirmed council plants?

Agree with a lot of that. Don’t agree that cutting spending power to millions of people will help the economy mind. The worst hit industries are retail, hospitality and aviation. We need people spending money on crap, getting drunk, and going on holiday. The government aren’t going to create...

Scouted playing in the Netherlands though. So would’ve gone through the same process as other overseas signings. I could equally argue Jobello was a success as he was a first team regular before injury. Similarly harsh to write off Hilßner as bad scouting if it’s a new health issue holding him back.

We can all play this game. Don’t buy players proven at the level, look at Ogogo and Brown, don’t buy experienced pros, look at Mayler, don’t buy from lower leagues look at Bosma and Allassani. Our record overseas right now is two successes: Dabo and Hamer, two failures: Kasta and Hilßner, two...

To be fair to those criticising they also get recommendations for pay rises for workers that they’re happy to ignore. Maybe the answer is to take public sector pay out MPs hands too?

You been at the beers again? Nadia Whittome, care worker. Mahiri Black student. Grant Shapps dodgy fucking ebook salesman. I could go on. And yet also the landed gentry, people like Sunak with personal fortunes and people like Starmer who rose to the top of their profession. The problem with...

The scouting system is the scouting system though and Viveash would’ve known Dabo from years ago. Might give him an in in negotiations but not in identifying. Most of the players are scouted from Germany and the Netherlands, it’s about as far away as Scotland. We’ve also had duds from L1...

Don’t rate Hamer or Dabo then?

Find me a private sector job you can do with no experience and no qualifications that earns you £80k/year in your first year. Let’s not pretend these are board level quality people here. Most would be lucky to rise to middle manager is a regional mobile phone sales business. This theory is...

While I get the emotional part, on a purely practical level putting money in people’s pockets to spend is exactly what’s needed when it’s the entertainment and hospitality sectors that have been hit so hard. It’s not construction and the like that need it like normal government stimulus...

Better times wingy. Went to the memorial on Saturday, it was rammed, people exercising, people out walking, people playing sports, never seen it so full of life on a random day. When it’s all over, let’s do this, but with pubs and football open. Why not?

Nadia Whittome gives a chunk of hers away to charities so she only earns the average wage. https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/nottingham-news/meet-countrys-youngest-mp-donating-3643465 Don’t agree with a some of her politics, but very admirable I think.

Oh yeah totally. Work your hours. Ive just loved being able to drop and collect my girls since they went back. It’s one thing I hope to keep when we are back to normal. I wonder if one side effect of more WFH will be a shift away from hours worked and towards some kind of milestone delivery...

Shirt has built in N95 face mask?

Too tinfoil hatty to suggest intentional as we relax lockdown otherwise people would be asking WTF?

It’s a massive con. Half of the cheap TVs are specially made models with fewer features just so they can be door busters on Black Friday.

Frankly I think WFH should accommodate school runs. I start late (and finish equally late) and take a late lunch for mine.

This is just match day stuff right? Seems a little redundant right now. If wider than that: - What’s the plan? Clearly we can’t compete, what’s the plan to change that? Or are we hoping for miracles every season? Should fans reset expectations to a L1 club as that’s all we can sustain? Will...

So frustrating.

It’s partly the size of the carriages being so small because it’s a low capacity line I think. You’d think they’d design it better, but you’d have thought that with the Ricoh too. As I say, I get the impression that line is used more by higher capacity trains so hopefully it’s just a matter of...
