I’ve been up their new training facility today. I can’t compare it to ours as I’ve never been, but it’s incredibly impressive. Shows they’re serious about investing for the future and taking a different route than some other small clubs who found themselves in the premier league.

I’d prefer Long John Silver in the middle of the park, he’d be more aggressive than Prowse. I know he’s a bit one footed but,then again, so is Prowse.

One other thing to watch out for is the rules around recycling. It’s complicated but basically it’s designed to stop people taking 25% tax free from one pension, reinvesting it into another pension & then getting 25% of that tax free. If you were looking to max out your yearly allowance you may fall foul of these rules, so defo seek professional advice.

Since leaving?

Fucking hell, if they’re not beating voters up, they’re insulting them. The nasty party…

I’m pretty sure you can use 3 years of unused allowance. I think you can also pay into your partners pension if they have any unused allowance as well.

“Prisoners”, I think the word is hostages.

“Hamas starved him and left him with no knowledge of what they did to his young girls, wife and brother.” “He found out today”. “his mother and his sister comforting him.”

I’m not against the odd son-in-law or touch players that mince a bit. Tadic was sublime at times. But you can be “weedier” and have mental toughness and character, just as some physically strong players can go missing when the chips are down. We’ve had a weak mentality since Ralph went soft in the latter third of his spell. The culture is too Noddy for me, and the results are there for all to see. The likes of Downes, just enhance a culture that already exists.

Get rid. Fucking weak mentality. Players like him and Smallbone are one of the reasons I want Ivan to stay. The last thing we want is another bloke coming in putting their arm round these twats and rehabilitating them. We need a culture change, kick the son in laws out, and get some gypsies & pirates in.

It’ll all depend on the next 4 years. There’s no doubt Rachael from accounts will have to come back for more taxes as the party won’t stomach the alternative of real cuts, then the state of public services will play a major part of the next election. If Labour somehow do manage to make a noticeable difference to them, then I think the public will accept the European model of higher taxation for better services. What they won’t accept is higher taxation for the status quo, or tiny insignificant improvements. Personally, I think this bunch of amateur’s will do real damage to the “higher taxes/better services” side of the argument as we will have higher taxes and worse services come 2029, but only time will tell. But it won’t be taxation that pushes Reform to the next level, it’ll be immigration, foreign aid and the costs/ social impacts of that. Saying cut foreign aid to lower your taxes will enable opponents to portray you as the “nasty party”. Cut foreign aid to look after our pensioners/ poor / vulnerable, quite a different argument. Vote leave didn’t put “let’s leave the EU & use the £350m to cut your taxes”. I doubt if Nigel will let the party be portrayed as Thatcherite, even though “he’” is. He’ll try the Lib Dem trick of being all things to all men in different constituencies , and until they hit the reality of Government and face their own tuition fee moment ,it may work. They all pretty much do that anyway with all their manifesto’s being “fully costed”.

Yeah, all that love for Lego, and he hasn’t got a clue who the fuck you are….

How is that any different than any other party? In opposition Labour were going to maintain winter fuel allowance, not increase NI, compensate the Waspi birds, freeze council tax, knock £300 off our energy bills, all without increasing our taxes & delivering growth. If that’s not “something for nothing” I don’t know what is. None of the establishment parties were straight with the British people, none of their promises were “fully costed”, to try and claim Reform are the only people promising something for nothing is delusional…

If you believe it’s just oldies, you’re in for a big shock come the next election.
