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

    You’re right. I’m just frustrated he’s giving the spiel about Brexit being ‘a race to the bottom’ when his blunders have contributed to this outcome. I genuinely like Corbyn in my Uni days, but he really could’ve done with reading some Machiavelli. Ineffective politician.

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

    I get that on a level, but the alternative is no deal at all. To be frank, the deal isn’t all that bad. Zero tariff and zero quota access to the EU Single Market without having to pay into it, is not that bad an outcome. It’s still a ‘hard’ Brexit, but you don’t want to like Norway where you...

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

    Jo Swinson and Corbyn bottled their opportunity to have a second referendum. They couldn’t work together electorally and that cost both parties seats. So it seems pretty pointless that Corbyn is grandstanding by opposing the deal, when the alternative is no deal and a harder Brexit. Brexit is...

    Liam Kelly

    We lost 20 games in our first season in League 1 - Kelly was injured for a lot of that season. You cannot underestimate the impact of good leadership. Together, McFadz and Kelly organise the team effectively in both attack and defence. We were really naive last night, conceding two very poor...

    January transfer window

    Sorry, I was strictly talking about permanent signings which wasn't very clear - so that's on me.

    January transfer window

    That is very much a Michael Owen comment to make. Obviously MR wants to bring in better quality players. The reality is that we have to find destinations for said players, and we have to find the right players with the right quality, for the right price. MR isn’t usually active in January...

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

    Again, finishing communities in the EU disagree with you - they feel the EU has let them down in the same way our fishing communities feel let down by our government. You raise a good point there - our fishing fleet probably isn’t even big enough to take advantage of having 100% control of...

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

    Yes, but, if the UK government has well and truly sold the fishing industry out, surely the Irish and French fishing industries would be happy. But they’re not, and both sides are saying they capitulated to the other - which doesn’t make sense. Compromises have been made by both sides. Well...

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

    To provide a bit of balance, the fisherman of various EU member states are also kicking off and claiming to have been ‘sacrificed’ too. Particularly in Ireland and France. With that in mind, it’s probably fair to say the cost of compromise is that neither side is truly happy.

    Ryan Giles

    We’ve had Luton, Huddersfield and Stoke at home - they are good teams. I didn’t watch all of the Sheffield Wednesday match, but we had the chances to score.

    Ryan Giles

    Personally, I’d play Giles higher up the pitch when we’re playing ‘the box’. But, as a wing back, McCallum is just a better defender and with our defensive issues earlier on in the season, it makes perfect sense to sacrifice his attacking skill.

    2 goals in 5 games

    Both Godden and Walker are good strikers - we could do with a 3rd option. But, the issue is creativity and that comes from midfield. Our creative output is limited to COH, Hamer and Dabo. Frankly, take Hamer out, there’s nothing really coming from our midfield in terms of goals. Secondly...

    Match Thread Stoke City

    I feel like we need to gamble a bit more with shots. Particularly COH. We’ve had some shaky moments, but going into the half drawing is a fair reflection of the flow of play. I reckon this will end 1-0 to either team.

    Both will play upfront when they’re both fit.

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

    From my line of work, both the EU and UK are bringing in simplifications to their import and export processes to mitigate the risks of increased paperwork whilst facilitating trade. It's not as ideal as complete free trade within the EU, but the argument the Brexiteers are making is the UK can...

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

    Agreed. If Brexit goes well, the Tories probably secure another generation in power. Badly, their economic credibility goes out the window for a generation too. Apparently there is some 50 FTAs in the pipelines, and maybe this can help boost the economy. But, the risk of cause goes that new...

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

    The EU is at crossroads now that Brexit is actually going ahead and a reality for both the EU and the UK. Frankly, if Brexit is a success, there are countries that are willing to have their own polls on EU membership. Italy seem to the most likely, but France also has a lot of Eurosceptics too...

    Merry Christmas to all! Hopefully we get 3 points tomorrow as a nice stockings filler!

    Match Thread Sheffield Wednesday

    Can’t lie, watched the game in the changing rooms after a rugger game. We looked shit, and got shithoused. It’s one of those. A lot of injuries/suspensions, I’m not massively surprised by the result. Disappointed of course.
