Sir Ralph

And guess what lots of people that didn’t know about this betting company have checked out the add and know it now. It worked. Funnily enough we didn’t hear criticism of all the middle aged women filming the male tennis players taking their shirts off at Wimbledon. Imagine if the roles were reversed

I made myself look like a right .

I know what the DK effect is - I didn’t say it was a superiority complex. The irony is was pointing out is that you’re accusing other people of overestimating their knowledge whilst telling us how knowledgable you are. Whether you call that “lavishing praise” and or just stating your own expertise doesn’t change the point. But congratulations on having “a education” 😉

I didn’t say it will all be fine if we do that. However I believe that if the direction of travel is reducing taxes and reducing spending that will put us in a better position in terms of a positive business environment to facilitate growth. Accusing others of dunning Kruger whilst lavishing praise on yourself for your own perceived knowledge is pretty amazing. Hopefully your knowledge of economics is better than your understanding of irony

What a strange response. Distinctly lacking in substance

…and increased borrowing costs. Again they just throw insults because they can’t make a case for the left wing policies that haven’t resolved the budget issues, despite excessively high levels of taxation. Who would have thought that increased government spending and higher taxes wouldn’t work?! I tell you what let’s double down and do the same again

It’s essentially admitting poor fiscal management by your own party. Not really a surprise bearing in mind the significant increase in public spending that Starmer put in place. They can’t manage their spending because of their own economically illiterate backbenchers. Obvious to everyone in business but not the usual “centrist” crowd on here who clearly don’t know much at all https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/markets/article-16134131/A-tax-spend-socialist-government-better-TikTok-videos-economist-savages-Andy-Burnham-calls-spending-cuts-calm-bond-market-chaos.html

All fair points. Not of the responses to your post have actually successfully challenged what you said, in fact I don’t know what the objective of the the responses are. Multiple mocking responses don’t make what you’ve said incorrect because it’s all factually correct and most rationale people acknowledge and understand that.

Don’t be rationale - the fa aren’t following precedents they have already set. They are making this up as they go along

Again this is within the rules. Are. You equally disgusted that Labour did the same?

What Rayner is saying is we don’t like these big donors as they are donating to other parties. Can’t imagine big business donating much to the Labour Party.

I don’t think there is an issue with accepting either donation as long as it is within the law. It’s at each parties own discretion regarding the optics of it

Hi please see my previous post Look up David Neal and the Welsh Labour campaign. Accepted multiple donations, were called out on it. And didn’t return the £ up David Neal and the Welsh Labour campaign. Accepted multiple donations, were called out on it. And didn’t return the £ as I understand it

I agree Defensively a bit short but he gives a lot going forward and from set pieces

I’ve responded on the returned donations. Your argument about the amount is very weak. It’s the principle. Did they accept donations and not return them from convicted criminals in the same manner you have criticised reform? It’s a simple yes or no

Not sure whether they did but if they did fair enough. They didn’t return all donations from other criminals though. Look up David Neal and the Welsh Labour campaign. Accepted multiple donations, were called out on it. And didn’t return the £ as I understand it

I looked nothing there. So the answer to whether you raised this issue with convicted Labour donors is “no” = double standards. I didn’t find a lot of unanswered questions though. How about this, I’ll give you another chance….Whilst it isn’t illegal to take donations from people with convictions do you ageee that Labour are no better than reform in this respect as they have recieved donations from criminals? The questions were in the message - you don’t even need a search function

They will come down unnecessarily hard. They will take the punishment out of all context. Even if they do what a motivation to get promoted

What did I cut and paste?

Happy for you to point me to that post being the balanced and non partisan poster I’m sure you are. I’ve no doubt you can back up your statement with the requisite evidence. I noticed you didn’t answer the questions yet (again)

If the wallies at the fa give him a 6 month ban I don’t think we will sack him. If he is banned is he not allowed any contact with the club during that period at all?

For the directly comparable fixtures for last season we are plus eight points compared to last season

Best signing up front since lambert and pelle

Not harborne though. Did you post on here about shere sattars convictions and the therefore the unacceptable nature of his donations? Also is this acceptance of these donations illegal?

This was a period in time when lots of good young players left because we weren’t providing comparable contract offers to other clubs.
