Don't believe we do

For a nominal (undisclosed) fee. We better have a massive sell on!

Oh I give up.

Yes but the rules are pretty central to it all...we broke them in order to gain a sporting advantage with potential enormous consequences.

Yes, randomly. Depending on whether the FA blazers have had a good lunch.

So.... not randomly?

I'm not talking about "the rules" really. The phrase "sporting advantage" is bandied around as if nobody ever seeks to use it. There are rules about financial fair play for instance but they get applied randomly depending on who can afford the best lawyers which is itself seeking to gain a sporting advantage. Tapping up and paying the best players huge salaries is gaining a sporting advantage but let's worry instead about someone lurking behind a tree watching a team who are practising in public view. The whole thing's got out of hand in my opinion. Just look at bleedin' FIFA for instance. It's laughable.

They did scenario planning for a touchline ban at yesterday's game and afterwards when interviewed Tonda said he hoped it wouldn't be required. Pretty good reason to expect that's the sanction.

because it is against the rules that the club and staff agreed to adhere to. Pretty sure this has been covered many times over the last 2 months. the club, and Tonda, have not contested this

Still can't get my head around the idea that seeking to gain a sporting advantage is somehow classed sinful. Isn't that part of what professional sport is about?

Saints have a behind closed doors friendly on Sunday 9th August. So makes sense for the first choice XI to play the Colchester game on 8th August and the others to play in the friendly.

In my experience on this forum, anyone who needs to assign a label like “lefties”, “far right” or “centrist” to people they don’t even know just to make their point usually implies that they haven’t got a clue what they’re talking about and just need to put others into a make believe box so they can argue against them. It’s oddball behaviour, but ok.

Need a result even if its a pens win. Need momentum to get that early part of season with points.

Feet ( Carry on Screaming reference )

An AI app can predict how the game is unfolding and make the relevant tactical changes and subs for Tonda. Or we can plant Tuchel in the crowd and Tonda and relay instructions in German to him via the bench. No obscure FA rule beached there

I'd certainly play a full strength side

You were right. That does have more impact than my idea. I'm glad we all had a meeting to decide the wording. Oops...

Lesser spotted Boro Tit making a nest in the goal. The Boro goalkeeper was certainly a Tit

We could all coordinate and put him on ignore. That way he can have his say without being quietened (the chance would be a fine thing) by us, but we don't have to see his confused postings.

So you think the many posters taking issue with you are doing so out of a coordinated strategy ? Trust me, you are not that special or important.

I prefer other books by the same authors:- Westland the Helicopter - Delightful children's book about the plucky animated copter, by M Heseltine. The Vicar's Daughter - A seemingly pious arrival derails a small Agatha Christie type village, by T May. The Brief - Tense lagal drama concerning a solicitor on borrowed time in his job, by S Javid The World of Invertebrates - Accessible, if scattered, natural history, by E Davey Hit The North - Andy Burnham shares details about his time in The Fall. No wonder you've not got far in any of yours. Dullsville.

Rishi Sunak would an improvement with bat in hand, let alone Rishi Patel. Sorry to MLG but Orr joined from Sussex, but it hasn’t worked out.

Can confirm they do still do the badge too small lol, I posted photo a few pages back

With all of the references to ‘centrists’ from some posters (mainly one but not all him), I thought I’d look at any politics books I’d bought recently on Kindle. I’d already read Ken Clarke’s Kind of Blue. 5 there, three from Conservatives, one from the current Labour PM and one from the Lib Dem leader on social care. If I referred to any of Javid, May (who I voted for) and Heseltine and lumped them in Farage, Robinson, Lowe etc, that’s crazy and the former three would be rather offended. And rightly so. Especially Javid who understandably is strongly anti-racist and anti-Islamophobia. Yet we get these wallies referring to the ‘left’ and lumping in Glasman, Burnham, Streeting, Davey with Polanski and Corbyn. Thick as mince as well isn’t it?

Could have really done with an arguement like that in the office before Tonda did said manipulating really.
