True. But little impact on my enjoyment of England matches. I’m not here to kink shame though.

England are always boring. It’s got to be getting on for 30 years since I was last genuinely exited to watch and England game, and that might have been because I was a teenager discovering beer and football.

Be honest though. Stupid fucking place for it. I’m not sure it’s a fair comparison to take a mostly secular nation (and one of the most socially progressive on the planet) and compare its social attitudes in the gen pop to a specific religion. I’ve no doubt there’s homophobia rife in Muslim...

Yeah but if it was four weeks imagine how fit our squad would be! And we’ve been hit by stop start seasons before. Personally I thought I was better last year to have one break than loads.

Recovering alcoholics and you won’t convince me otherwise

Ive read it. It’s the same argument you’re making. Lots of conjecture, lots of “I don’t believe the experts” lots of studiously avoiding your opponents points. Are you seriously saying we don’t need a high speed connection on modern tracks between our major cities? That’s the question you keep...

Shit ain’t they? Would you rather they condensed them all into say a month in the middle of the season (Early Jan maybe) rather than having four or five spread around the season?

Yes the years when we had 9 shit players and two world class ones: one who could score from anything any one who could win games single handed from DM. We don’t have that luxury any more. Play like we did the last three seasons and we’ll draw or lose most games without scoring.

Diet and exercise and if you can afford it therapy. You got this bro 👊

I’ll have a look when I get the chance. Though I only have access to a Mac so if it’s a windows program I’m screwed. Looks like Linux to me tho.

I agree. I just think it’s a hard sell in the current UK climate. Hopefully less so than it was, but “Labour spend too much” is still the number one complaint I hear.

Didn’t help Kitching he just got “record defensive signing” 😂

I think it’s more chicken and egg “well spend on stuff that will benefit the economy once we’ve got an economy that allows us to spend on stuff”

Well that’s where the rubber meets the road. If she can’t get growth the whole thing falls apart but I think she’s going about it the right way so far.

And of course “Labour spending” still ends up being the story…

I think you’ve got to accept that’s the economic model they’re going with to reduce attacks from the Tories. Blair came in promising no new spending as well IIRC. Sadly I think it may be a prerequisite to getting elected in the UK for now.

My GF and best friend for a time were film students. Watching movies with them was the worst experience of my life. Just ruined everything. Similarly I got massively disillusioned by machine learning when I did my masters. Some things are best left alone. Like the clitoris.

Yeah but what do you want? It was never going to be McDonnell 2.0. I think planning reform is the right focus, proper living wage (I’ll wait until I see the details), workers rights from day one, improved sick pay, no ZHC all good things. Most importantly if I was politically neutral there’s an...

As always I’m in the middle on this. Rail, water and energy yes please. I think you can do some of that over time with investment like GB Energy if done properly. I’m not convinced Starmer is doing it properly mind.
