Trump no longer has an obligation for peace with Norway, apparently, because he wasn't given the Nobel Peace Prize (allegedly in Trump's own words...).

There are numerous actions that Europe could take if Trump continues to act like a spoilt child who wants more candy. Deny the US airspace. Add their own tariffs. If they refuse to leave the bases, how long will they continue to operate with no assistance and support from the countries they are in and no airspace? Trump only understands threats. He thinks Europe is weak. Play him at his own game instead of kissing his flabby orange arse and we might make some decent progress. Macron has clearly had enough. More need to follow his lead.

Well at least as we know Bree can thump the ball even if he is a bit tardy…

He can charge a fortune to write them a 28 page detailed analysis with a full breakdown of the issues. I'll summarise the document for us all: xG too low, lol

Whilst I fully apprecate that all of our CB's are pony, I think Wood is up there as arguably the worst of the lot. Probably need to bring stephens back in. Again, picking from a bad bunch, but THB and Stephens are probably our best options.

Why hire an analyst to state the problems. Us fans have been doing it for free, on mass, for years.

PM in waiting?

Not really bothered anymore, but I assume we'll lose 2 or 3 nil and dominate the stats by passing sideways for most of the match.

Yes, I should.

Wow!!! We are really going places now..... Great work and will make all the difference, just what we need

It probably is Hoey but it would be like the Lib Dem’s claiming Heseltine, knowing that he’s been voting for them since Boris took the leadership and was expelled from their party for it. For Farage to claim any sort of scoop on that is desperate indeed and shows the fear that he’s let far too many recycled and failed Tories in his boat, and it’s sprung a bad leak.

Alright lads, I read it having just woken up and not being fully with it. It was only meant to be a joke (that's generally what the laughing emoji is for), I'm not actually accusing them of anything. Jesus Christ.

Stop it! Stewart is back FFS

I think that says more about your mind than it does about his post………

Farage used to believe that there should be a by-election if someone switched parties. Strange that he has changed his mind when it works in his favour. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-39398054.amp

Episode 354 – Same Problems, Seven Without a Win Another grim afternoon at St Mary’s as Hull City complete the double, leaving Saints without a win in seven Championship matches. In this episode we cover: Repeating tactical issues and sticking with five at the back Soft goals, poor defending, and familiar mistakes Whether the selection after Middlesbrough showed worrying acceptance Ross Stewart’s goal and why he has to play more Growing frustration with where this season is heading A preview of Sheffield United on Wednesday night with Chad Jarvis from the Red Half of Sheffield Podcast. We also talk about our live podcast at St Mary’s this week, raising money for the Saints Foundation, with James Beattie and Mark Dennis joining us. 🎧 Audio: https://pod.fo/e/37b9aa 📺 Video: https://youtube.com/live/IiadicXDaYQ

This is some of the real lasting harm the way we operate does. Our turnover and managers means no stability across the board (including the U21 coaches we've thrown to the wolves). Then each successive "leader" brings in their own people who remain after they've left. Anyone good gets to move to a better place and we're left with the dross. It's the Dead Sea Effect in action. The trouble is that our high turnover and poor recruitment of people means we accumulate mediocre people faster than good people and the few good people we luck into are gone in a heartbeat leaving us with a growing pool of mediocrity. At which point the mediocre entrench themselves to preserve the status quo. Paraphrased from (https://brucefwebster.com/2008/04/11/the-wetware-crisis-the-dead-sea-effect/) But in my experience, that’s not what happens. Instead, what happens is that the more talented people are the ones most likely to leave — to evaporate, if you will. They are the ones least likely to put up with the frequent stupidities and workplace problems that plague large organizations; they are also the ones most likely to have other opportunities that they can readily move to. What tends to remain behind is the ‘residue’ — the least talented and effective people. They tend to be grateful they have a job and make fewer demands on management; even if they find the workplace unpleasant, they are the least likely to be able to find a job elsewhere. They tend to entrench themselves, ..., assuming responsibilities that no one else wants so that the organization can’t afford to let them go.

15 in 20 is some scoring record. Great to score under pressure, attacking a cross with his head and making his own chance with a bit of magic. Our attackers turn back under pressure, can't win headers in the box and rarely produce moments of magic. We're going to regret letting him go but after his injury nightmare the lad deserves every success he gets.

Thank god we chased out someone who wanted to rip up the players pedestrian football instincts and get them playing football with higher intensity and more individual autonomy about when/how they can move the ball forward.

At the risk if sounding controversial, I have a feeling the ref had an interest in Morocco winning....

Not the clearest way to start that post...😂

True - also got to remember that they would not have had the budget to work with that they would have at saints.

What's the need for analysts when Tonda doesn't change anything? All feels a bit pointless.

Just what we need. Another geek who has never kicked a ball to join the other nerds in Spors broom cupboard. What a fucking joke this club is.
