There's a line between our patient approach and an apathetic one. We took our foot off the gas, and slowed. Charles getting on the wrong side, allowed a Wednesday attack. That was the move where they ended up winning 3 headers to get it past Peretz. But it was just one of the occasions where our positioning and passing got sloppy. THB is a danger from corners, and got us our cushion back. A nod to Matsuki who took players with him as he attacked the centre. Yates could have got Wednesday a second before the end, in a move that was more inclusive than anything we'd delivered that half. Even then, had Edozie passed rather than shot, it could have been 4. Can't argue with a win. The players will know they'll have to be sharper against better opposition, to keep a play off drive going.

A comfortable match as you could hope for. Saints are their usual patient selves. Against a fragile team, that's been a bit frustrating. But we've still had enough incisive passing to be even further ahead. Larin has got into a couple of excellent positions. Lovely free kick from Manning to get the second goal cushion, and solid enough performances elsewhere. Peretz has had nothing to do. Wednesday were a few moments away from creating a chance, but nothing developed. If we start the second half as comfortably, we can give plenty of minutes to our strong bench. Hopefully, they'll have instructions to give it some intensity for their own development.

Since your box specs don't allow for air, there's no real urgency in the digging up bit. 🙂

And not because a bloke in a football shirt, singing us a song and giving us flowers, is a Stuart Armstrong haircut and Russell Martin beard away from our dreams. 🙂

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?

You are. All of their voters didn't get past the "Sir", voting out of deference to those at the top, who've been having an awkward time of it. So, it will definitely be you reading too much into it, and definitely not me. >cough< -

Watched the first two. I didn't know anything about it. So, having a Fortean bone, it was tickled when that plot appeared. It does have that relaxing Detectorists feel to it, despite having a decent amount going on. Palin is superb. Gotta go, the boss is asking if I'm on my break. 🙂 -

An MPs we actually like thread? Nice to hear some positivity around elected reps, in amongst the news. -

Just to clarify, I'm putting Plumbing in the "actual skills" category. Mammary Mesmirist would go into the "contact the authorities" category. 🙂 -

I've more time for someone with actual skills and life experience, than I have for a number of the brain dead, with nothing but careerist troughing to their political lives. -

My moobs are all tingly at the thought of their enlargement, along with the economy. 🙂 The only thing I've heard about the new Green MP, was her speech. She sounded like a person who used to be comfortably in the left of the Labour party. With Starmer pushing to the right, and then trying to counter reform, a new home may have opened up for them. Corbyn's party may find it's getting less traction. -

Turned out to be a cardboard cut-out of an actual broom. -

It was just too big a margin, for Labour to lose. No doubt people will talk about it being a smaller majority. But that's to be expected from a sitting government. Checks result...oh...called that one wrong...
