That doesn't make any sense, somebody making themselves very wealthy doesn't always mean they're employing somebody. How many footballers, for example, actually create employment.

What a load of half-baked rubbish. Who has said the 'poor' don't wish to pay anything? You have just made that up you fool.

If you're going to compare currency values it's probably best to do it against a relatively stable leading reserve currency. Of course if it loses value against the dollar it probably has against other currencies as well. The comparison with the € is broadly similar in any case.

It is because VAT is levied on not just what should be considered as consumer goods, like sanitary towels, power, all adult clothing. It's a ridiculous system but generates more revenue than income tax.

Jesus wept

They're not being 'punished'. Why should the poor be 'punished' for not earning so much (if that means doing badly)? By poor I don't just mean those who don't work.

VAT is a consumption tax which disproportionately affects the poorest. It went up soon after the Tories got into power.

Amazingly confident of scoring twice against a team that hasn't conceded more than 1 goal in a game in the league since September and has only conceded two goals at home all season. Notts scab simpletons.

The 'crash' is exaggerated a bit by currency speculation; in the period running up to the 23rd June itself the rate went from $1.42 on the 13th to $1.49 by the 23rd to the £1. It has hovered around $1.40 to $1.42 - $1.45 for all of 2016, so it's lost about 10% or so @ $1.31 today. Though the £...

He was a good footballer, amazing that we had a continent's footballer of the year playing for us really!

We're playing in a professional league. We are at this level because we deserve to be, we're not a top division team and haven't been for some time. Since the football league was formed 129 years ago, we have spent 95 years outside of the top flight. Let's have a bit of perspective instead of...

Best way to crisp bacon, retain its flavour and keep it flat is to cook it in the oven. Dip your bread in the fat on your baking tray if you fancy.

Yes, he wasn't a bad player by any stretch. Both he and Breen scored own goals at Old Trafford that day it should be remembered

It's an excellent goal, admittedly the closing down isn't great but really incisive move from one end to the other. Also, to add McNulty laid the ball off in his own half at the start of the move. To think of the criticism he gets from some of the clueless muffins on here. Great to hear the...

Classic Fawlty Towers

He's just another ordinary safe vanilla player off the production line. Suits the bland manager. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Busy decorating today. Good result considering how poor we've been in the cups, I think we're far more resilient than any of the teams of recent years Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
