There wasn’t a super majority for the first one, so why would there be in second? Simple majority wins, simple as that in my view. As I’ve stated previously, the issue of EU membership will not go away regardless of what happens this year, with regards to Brexit.

You have misread my argument because I’m against having 3 options on the ballot paper, which a couple of posters have suggested. I’m against it because it will split the Leave vote and that is wrong. I demonstrated this by imaging a scenario where Remain ‘won’ in an unfair way. I’m in favour of...

Look, we’re going over old ground here. Yes it was a definite answer. Which is why the UK Government invoked Article 50 and has spent the last 2 and a half years negotiating that deal. But, in 2019, we’re in a position where Parliament is likely to reject that Brexit deal and the alternative...

You’ve misread my post. My argument is against a preferendum, not for it. A second referendum needs two options so the answer is decisive. If there was a preferendum and voting for 3 options, you could get a skewed result as the largest % would win, no? In the scenario I laid out, Remain would...

A ‘preferendum’ isn’t viable in my opinion for a two main reasons. First, the likelihood of an absolutely majority that is above 50% of the popular vote is decreased and to me, it isn’t an optimal solution. A referendum, by contrast, offers a definite answer from the public. Second, I actually...

Because Leon Clarke is a proven goalscorer in L1 and above. But, more importantly, offers something different to what we have, he’s a focal point in attack who’s good in the air. Where does McNulty actually fit in? Reading aren’t going to let McNulty go for cheap considering they’ve spent £1m on...

Considering McNulty wouldn’t come cheap, is it really worth it? Hasn’t played a lot, seemingly unfit, and frankly, isn’t the same player who scored 28 for us. Ideally, I’d have preferred him to stay, but the die has been cast and I don’t see a need for him. The risk outweigh the rewards and like...

Did you take a break over Xmas? Our strikers have scored 5 in the last 4 games... and are all scoring roughly 1 in 4. Which is respectable. McNulty has no goal scoring record in League 1.

May is playing a game of political brinksmanship. Delaying the vote is doing two things; forcing Brexiteer MPs to choose between a Brexit of sorts, or risk not leaving at all and for Remain MPs, the risk of a no deal Brexit. She’s in an impossible position. Brexiteer MPs consider a no deal...

For me, it’s a toss up between Callum Wilson and McGoldrick. I’d edge toward Wilson, especially because I wrote him off the season before his breakthrough.

I’ll forgive and forget if he bangs in a few goals. I’m sure he supported Wolves too and in his position, I’d do what I could to get a move to Cov! I’m doubtful we’ll be in a position to sign him in any capacity either way.

The likelihood is that you’re right then! I thought Hereford were in the National League!

I was hoping for about 50k if I’m honest, but have no idea what kind of cash they’ve got to spend!

Apologies for the vagueness. I Was talking about Clarke, but I’ve realised he’s under contract until 2020.

I wonder if this is the kind of ‘wheeling dealing’ Robins is on about. I can’t imagine we’d have gotten anything more than £100k but it’s still money in the kitty*. * for Joy’s handbag fund...

If he was a free agent in the summer, we should pull out all of the stops, but I wouldn’t push the boat out to sign him this window. I want to see if Hiwula and Chaplin can form a good partnership, so far they’re 4 in 4 starting together. I also like JCH as an impact sub so there are definitely...

I enjoyed watching McNulty during his time here, but, it’s best we moved on because I can’t see where he fits in and he has no resume in L1 to justify any fees or his wage demands. Leon Clarke would be a great shout if he was available and we had the means to get him, but I doubt that. The kind...

If you think about, is it that good a decision financially? Over one or two seasons, absolutely! But, he’s not getting a game, Reading will want to get rid of him, and he could be in a position where no one even in League 1 will take a punt on him after he’s done a Reading. Remember, he has no...

Chaplin has 6 goals and 3 assists in 23 appearances whilst Thomas has 1 and 4 assists in 21 (all competitions). There’s the stats and I know who I’d rather have.

George Thomas should’ve stayed with us, could’ve had a stormer in League 2 and earned a move to the Championship or better. Going to Leicester has stunted his development because he spent a season playing U23s football instead of playing men’s football. 2 years later, we’re in the top half of...
