    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    but plenty of respected publications are contradicting it. You're struggling to grasp that. I'd be amazed if you quit this thread!

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    True, you didn't. But you were replying to me. I'm not having a go at Forbes as a source, I just don't think they're correct on this occasion based on other stuff I've read. Just my conclusion. They could be right and the sources I've linked could be wrong, like I say, that's a perfectly...

    You're doing it again, I never used Yougov as a source. Like I say, you drew your conclusions and I drew mine.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I never said you had blind optimism. You have a habit of reading things that aren't actually said. You have read what's going on and in particular the Forbes article and concluded that there is the potential for a brighter outlook next year. I haven't come to the same conclusion so for me to be...

    First Cov pub you had a drink in

    You wouldn't have made it much past 14 if you'd carried on drinking absinthe - evil gear! I nearly got ran over the night we got relegated from the prem drinking that shit.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    This is pretty good. I haven't had chance to find someone with a counter view point yet as I don't know a great deal about economics so he could be talking shite but it all sounds plausible to me. He's Scottish but based in the States so a lot of it applies to the USA but I think it's relevant...

    Beerhouses!! Great term for a boozer.

    First Cov pub you had a drink in

    everyone used to moan about it but looking back it was very vibrant, (albeit a bit violent at times). I think the lack of night clubs was peoples main bug bear as finishing the night in a night club was pretty much compulsory back then but Brum was only up the road and always good for a late night.

    Thistle? What a boozer. Like it had been lifted straight off a street corner in Scotland and dropped in Coventry. Loved the place.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    so you want people to be positive even if they believe there is nothing to be positive about just because you are? If blind optimism despite your better judgement actually achieved anything I'd be sitting at home now watching a rerun of one of Citys Champions League victories.

    First Cov pub you had a drink in

    The Alhambra was a great City pub. Loved it in there pre game and after away games, (shut after home games, this was before all day opening).

    Commonwealth games Brum 2022

    Great news for the region and great for Cov following on from 2021 City of culture. Should be a bumper couple of years for the City. Hopefully the Ricoh will get some events.

    Not sure but probably the Albany in Earlsdon. Mad to think how lax the pubs were back then.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    what are you talking about, I haven't mentioned Brexit and even asked why you had mentioned remain voters in post 11286. Our growth forecasts are the lowest, (or it may be 2nd lowest), in the G7, that doesn't mean we are going into recession which is why I haven't mentioned it so I'm not sure...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I have no opinions on Forbes. But there are plenty of respected news sources and companies contradicting what they say and not many backing them up. I have provided links from FT, PCW, CityAM and the Chancellors own projections which have down graded UK growth next year which was already...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    They didn't know that the UK has dropped from 5th to 6th biggest economy so I would suggest they didn't but I'm glad you have gleaned so much from one article that you can dismiss all others. If you think the economic outlook looks good then fair play to you. We'll know who was right this time...

    so the Financial Times isn't a respected publication. PCW aren't a non biased respected company? UK Economic Outlook
