If you think the voting for London mayor is honest then you must believe in Father Christmas!

Even if he was the worst mayor on Earth, he'd still get in ahead of the Tory or Lib Dem candidate.

It's just embarrassing and parroting stuff from social media; London is a capital to be proud of.

Yep.

Same with Ulez. It has been hyped up so much that people are unaware that the majority of cars are compliant.

Oh no someone’s mentioned Khan, all the totally normal not at all racist people will be out with their concern for 84 year old plumbers with a love of diesel engines and knife crime victims.

Yes I get all that, but you stated if he invested every penny of a 3 year deal on 20k he would have 1.6m. But that's only if he immediately withdraws it. If he still has a football career for another 10 years, then he can 'only' save 500k, leave it invested and double it to 1m before starting to draw down the principle using the 4% rule. With inflation, 40k will not be as lucrative in 10 years, but still a pretty nice passive income if he's sheltered much of it in ISAs and has paid off the majority of his mortgage in that time too!

Footballers used to have a pension scheme, which allowed them to access their fund early.

This is complete nonsense. Have worked in London for over 35 years and lived there for a lot of that time. Regularly go out in the evening in London. Never once been the victim of crime. It's mostly a safe city.

I concur, I work in London 3-4 days every week and I have never been / seen anything. It’s a very safe City

I've moved from inside the North Circular to just outside London and honestly it's much nicer. I've witnessed a lot of crime and some areas are absolutely dangerous... but away from that, a footballer isn't going to live in those areas

Think some on here should re-watch the Wolves game. Palmer was brilliant that day feeding Wright & Simms.
Shame O'Hare is leaving but we've been here before. Once he didn't sign the contract when he got back into the side, it was clear he was gone. There's definitely been a visible shift in O'Hare's body language, and performances since February. I do wonder if a transfer in January was in the works, and it didn't go through in the end.

Would be surprised by the move to West Ham but definitely more exciting than some of the other clubs banded about.

I think the reality is in the games where Palmer is not effective (which feel quite often) he tends to detract from the team by losing posession, slowing us down, not doing enough out of posession etc.

That's why he likely needs to become a squad player - introduced when the game needs his particular brand. He's no doubt had enough coaching under this team and others to suggest he isn't going to progress much further.

There's also the fitness & injury record to consider here.

O'Hare is clearly not signing a new contract so we need to move on.. Good luck to him where ever he goes.

Will never forget the vid of him with the sky blue wig when we got promoted which is now sky blues folklore and the flair he brought to the team including the countless free kicks he was awarded.

Let's hope we can replace him with an equivalent talent or better.

As for Palmer leaving we need to build the squad not start again which cost us the play offs this season.

Hello, glad you have safe experiences, but a quick Google does show a decline in safety / increase in crime.

Maybe to take off topic but I would treat those stats with a degree of scepticism. I recently read something that showed that serious crime has reduced markedly and the apparent increase in numbers was due to differences in the way that incidents are recorded.

Personally think O'Hare will make the grade in the PL. His running is absolutely elite, and he can play as well. In some of the big games this season he's shown his game is up to it. Will fit in well in a side that want to press.

Well I know he gets driven round in a £300,000 deisal powered Range Rover Sentinel. Don't think they do a hybrid version

Agreed, I think at times we just don't have the options for him to be at his most effective

If he goes to West Ham, he will be loaned back to a championship club in January. He is a great guy but nowhere near PL standard. He cant nail down the no 10 role ahead of kasey palmer!!

And yet most people on here say that Palmer can't last 90 minutes!

I think he lacks the pace needed as a 10 in the Premier league. He has stamina but not speed or indeed even a change of pace.

Best of luck to Callum, he will be financially much better off however he will be merely a bench warmer and playing those conference league fixtures in the arse end of nowhere parts of europe that most of us would probably turn our noses up at.

A smart bit of business where West Ham are concerned but where Callum is concerned the only positive is he will be earning 40 grand a week.
