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

    Call me blinkered but ANYONE who sympathises with Tommy Robinson is a racist and a xenophobe. Maybe they don't realise it. Spare me from the "free speech", "Main stream media manipulation" bollocks.

    WHo says they won't be? You and who else?

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

    No, I've never been a fan. A life-long back bencher does not a leader make. Anyway, we are where we are, but May and Corbyn are no different to each other and are leading us to a disaster, but what can you do? I am hoping that there will be some kind of vote on the final deal - if we get one...

    Momentum and optimism... gone?

    Not sure why fans are pissed off with SISU, OP. We've signed a shedload of players and McNulty and his agent engineered the move to the mighty Reading. Nothing to do with SISU, the club or Robins.

    I'm probably being unfair as there seems a lot of love for them on here, but to me they seemed the classic "one hit wonder" kind of band. With a track so distinctive and catchy that it was a millstone.

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

    We can but hope. You can see how the country has become since the Brexit vote. The racists and xenophobes are certainly more vocal and visual than they used to be. Not helped by Farage, etc. We have the Free Tommy Robinson lot too. Britain is a scarier and less tolerant place than it was...

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

    Mmm...true, but at the end of the day Corbyn and his front bench are blindly following the Tories and will be complicit in making our country poorer. Thousands of jobs will be lost, the economy will tank and we're seeing Matt Hancock admitting we are stockpiling medicines and Raab saying we are...

    We have. I'm sure they're on Spotify and stuff, so will give them a listen. They're ne of those bands that I didn't take much notice of at the time - apart from the aforementioned Alright - and haven't since.

    Probably not. I haven't heard the one you posted from YouTube. They're no Teenage Fanclub.

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

    .@MattHancock : "The department is working up options with industry for stockpiling medicines, medical devices and substances of human origin in the case of a no-deal Brexit. Obviously there will be a cost for this." The utter, utter lunatics who voted for this and the utterly incompetent...

    Coventry slang/dialect

    Ah reminds me of the nightmare I sat near during the first 5 seasons at the Ricoh. An old bloke who called all players and referees "barm". Constantly.

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

    Ah yes. Unspecified manufacturers employing unspecified workers to make unspecified products for unspecified people. The Corbyn way.

    This Hot Summer

    Luckily I have aircon in my office, but a few fellow workers who don't like to have it on as it is "too cold". Blasting out at the moment though.

    Coventry slang/dialect

    A lot of that stuff was used in Southam too when I grew up in the 70s. I don't think it is particularly a Coventry thing.
