Agreed, Southgate’s tactical shift has turned this game on its head

Get Tavares on, his pace will terrify those tired German legs

Home game on a Saturday at 3pm 🙂 Train strike wipes out all service 🙃

The system isn’t rigged because of the Machiavellian scheming of some Tory super-villain, it goes a lot deeper than that. What you’re suggesting is childish.

He’s been working on it with a team of people who apparently have no idea how bond markets work, let alone how to get away with the financial heist of the century.

Think you are giving Kwarteng an insane amount of credit here. If ‘Tory donors making money by speculating on the economy’ is enough to convince you there’s a giant conspiracy afoot, then which politicians of the last 50 years haven’t been deliberately at it?

I’m taking them as a sign of someone who’s out of their depth and doesn’t really understand the possible fallout of what they’re doing. Maybe @shmmeee is right and I should be dazzled by Kwarteng’s intellect as one of history’s great supervillains, but I think Hanlon’s Razor is more likely to...

Did he? His own deputy was merrily tweeting away about the (very brief) rise in sterling after the initial announcement. The rules on politicians and their personal investments are a mess and need overhauling, but the idea that a politician is going to deliberately tank the entire economy to...

Think there are better and easier ways to make a fortune in politics than by tanking your own country’s reputation in the bond markets tbh.

Reading this thread I have no idea how people can hack it driving everywhere every day - living in a city with good public transport (or, I dunno, the woods) has never sounded more appealing. Funny how it’s always everyone else who’s the shit driver as well!

Well if Peter Ridsdale is on the case to fix parachute payments, I’m sure the whole league will be on a much more sustainable path in no time.

Think he would do just fine in a 2, so long as he was playing in a team capable of controlling possession without packing the midfield.

Sacking Southgate before the World Cup is a fantasy. His overachievement in the Euros was always going to buy him the chance to have a go at the World Cup. Even if he was fired, you’re not going to get a new manager bounce at international level - look at Spain in the last World Cup.

Like who? Kane is the only world class player in the squad whose window is closed by the time USA 2026 comes around.

Well according to SBB this is completely untrue:

I picked a great time to plan a trip to the US. Maybe if I sell a house or two before I leave I can afford a meal there.

I don’t generally have much time for gangs of lads who turn up outside places of worship in balaclavas, and clearly the violence needs to stop, but that’s a silly comparison.

I mean, the guy in the video explains it himself - they were supposedly protesting a controversial Hindu politician being invited to speak at the temple. Supposedly she was due to speak in Coventry as well.

Uh oh
