No that tackle was a disgrace should have been a straight red

The Burnham Years - Can the new(ish) broom sweep clean?

Labour came to power warning of a £22bn black hole. Since then they have: ❌ Put taxes up by around £70bn ❌ Borrowed another £310bn And now, after taking more of your money AND borrowing hundreds of billions more… …there is apparently another £35bn black hole. At what point do we admit the problem isn’t that Government doesn’t have enough money? It’s that Government cannot control its spending. You cannot tax your way to growth. You cannot borrow your way out of overspending -

Likewise, totally forgot about him with this long international break. He'll be heading back to Forest in January at this rate.
-
He's started the majority of league games this season I don't expect to see him start much from now on but that speaks more to the quality of our midfield
-
Any advice on parking? It’s one of the worst away games of the season for me. Around 5 1/2 hours. So keen to get out quick (after fist pumping crowd gesturing antics) after a 2-0 win. Never like playing out of form teams as we always seem to roll over but I get the feeling our lot are about to put a run together. Big three points at stake, worst case a draw and a big win at home Saturday.

He’s 24 until he’s 25 😉 Again, my point is it’s okay for people to not be an immediate success. Don’t really care for THB scenario specifically but the season is long and squad building in a transfer window to have options later down the line seems perfectly sensible and part of a players career. October isn’t the time to judge signings and that’s very relevant here too. Maybe it doesn’t work out for him. Or players in a similar situation here (like Ronnie Edwards) but time and opportunities will dictate that.

Also, where did I mention the EU...I'll wait for your answer on this one. -

Sorry, I should have said it's not unduly affecting economic growth - I dumbed it down for you. So do you think without the increase in bond yields we'd see Labour doing significantly better with it's economic growth then? -
It’s been clear since the start that it’s definitely reduced the noise of the away end. I sit much closer to the current away end than I did the previous one, and yet the noise feels significantly less - often I forget they’re even there.

“Bond yields not affecting the economy” 😂😂😂 add this to your growing portfolio of ever more ridiculous comments. Stop pretending that you have a clue what you’re talking about -
It's essentially a way to stop Membership Plus members from using their free tickets for the most attractive games. They did something similar with the derby on Sunday, so it wasn't eligible.

How did it work out for Ronnie Edwards here? THB is nearly 25 with almost 250 games under his belt, he’s not some kid making his way.
-
Ok, so that number is made up of: - Unemployment Benefits - Too sick to Work Benefits - Housing Benefits - PIP So Osvaldo was wrong then. Perhaps a bit more detail needed from him in future. The problem is benefits used to be assessed a lot more closely - but those checks were removed during austerity unfortunately. Perhaps we need to reintroduce them, and increase the size of the civil service to do that.

Errr, that’s not what I said in the context of the original post. Saintant seemed to suggest that wholesale changes would be made from the players listed. My contention was that Tonda would not make wholesale changes because there’s not the quality there to allow that and thereby risk a bad result.
-
Since I first went in the late 60's I always craved for us to have a proper end, ok we had the Milton but that was often mixed with away fans. Now we have the Northam Wall.
-
I totally forgot we signed him until I saw somebody mention him on Twitter on Sunday.

Alright Soggy, making people up to fit your argument 😂
-
The article is behind a paywall - I was hoping they'd reference their sources for the statistics as they usually would, but unfortunately can't get to it. Maybe Osvaldo can post the full article so we can see it.
-
I personally know someone that makes more than that, so unluckily for you, it’s correct.
-
I've given you the actual figures mate. They're correct. I appreciate they don't match your narrative, but that still makes them correct.
-
Get back in your hole. 🙄😉
-
Mate - you’ve not answered the questions and yes, roll on the January window…we’ll likely need a decent striker (again).
