When was this then? High ground šš The simple truth is they put up an awful candidate, who ran an awful campaign, after trying to con the people that there was nothing wrong with Biden. If, as some on here seem to be implying Harris just didnāt have enough time or was given a āhospital passā, well sheās got 4 years now. Not that sheāll get past the Primary stage, thereās not a fucking chance theyāll put her up again. They know how poor she is which is why she crashed & burnt in 2020 & why they hung on to Biden when he was clearly puddled. It takes a special kind of fuckwittery to put up 2 candidates that were so awful they couldnāt even beat Donald Trump.

Iāve watched Boscombe, Fulham, Forest, and other sides pass the fucking ball & play a possession based game. Nearly every friggin team in the top 2 divisions play like that. Why do Legoās fan club seem to think heās an exception, that it either the Lego way or a big Charles Hughes type hoof ball. Despite what he thinks he hasnāt reinvented the wheel or been particularly innovative, heās just playing a ridiculous unsustainable and boring version of what everyone else is doing better. Some of our supporters are drinking the Lego Kool-Aid

Has he also made it clear that bears shit in the woods & the pope is catholic? -
They probably wanted an āimmigrantā in the role.

Dear god, ššš He played second half against Brentford when we were already 2 down and 74 mins against wolves (when he went off it was 1-1).

Itās a shock if they actually stick to something they said previously. Tuition fees being the latest. -

Finally Lego got his subs right and affected the game, but make no mistake the jury is still out. This boring football just doesnāt generate enough chances & leaves Archer too isolated. This wasnāt vindication of Russball in any way.

Dear god. Itās a manās game. Yellow all day long, nothing more

Some people seem to think thereās 2 groups of tax payers, business & people, and taxing business doesnāt eventually filter down to working people. Labour know this full well, but because they made this ridiculous triple tax lock, have had to use this damaging measure. Thereās a legitimate argument to be had as to whether raising tax to invest in public services will result in better services and stimulate growth, and weād be on different sides of that argument. But I canāt believe anyone from your side of the debate can seriously think increasing pay roll taxes is the particular lever to pull. For people whoāve spent years bemoaning Tory selfishness & incompetence to support this measure is bizarre. A prime example of putting party before country. If they wanted to raise this amount, reversing previous NI would be a far less damaging measure. Iām sure theyāll come to regret not doing so in the long run. -

The OBR are the ones predicting poor growth in years 4 & 5. -
Finally, a win, rode our luck a bit and make no mistake had Baz been in nets we would have registered another 0 points. First time this season Lego made a positive impact with his substitutions, and apart from the offside, we saw out the game well. Lallana, class again but did look knackered after about 40mins, & MF our other outstanding player (apart from Ramsdale). One thing I noticed was our lack of players in the box when we break, unless we address this weāre always going to struggle for goals.

I think itās you that doesnāt know the laws. The ādouble jeopardy ā only applies inside the box. Outside, the box DOGSO applies regardless of whether a genuine attempt is made for the ball of not.

If they wanted to raise a significant amount through NI, they should have reversed Hunts last cut. They made a political choice which will do more harm & actually flatten growth, & theyāve always claimed itās the proceeds of growth that will deliver the improvements it public services & the NHS. If the OBR are right with their growth projections there wonāt be any noticeable difference & theyāll need to come back with more tax rises or borrow more. I was critical of Sunaks last budget & of Hunts previous efforts but as soon as thereās a hint of criticism of Starmers his fan boys on here get all upset. Employers NI is the absolute worse lever to pull whether youāre Labour or Conservative, to do it for party political purposes (because you can blur the working people line) will come back and bite them. -

What about the care sector, can they āfuck themselvesā? Care England saying itāll add Ā£2.4 billion to care home employment costs. GPās? fuck them as well. BMA saying employment costs added to GPās are āmonumentalā. Charities! go fuck yourselves as well, what do they need the billions itāll cost them for? , RSPCA saying itāll cost them Ā£1 million in extra payroll taxes alone. Anyone who thinks tax can be raised from bus8ness alone with no knock on effect on āworking peopleā is deluded. And whatās it for, the OBR growth predictions are horrendous. This borrow, tax and spend budget together with his general unpopularity will ensure heāll only get 5 years. -
š¤”š¤” Course thereās friggin climate change, the climates been changing for millions of years. If it didnāt, soft arses like you would be bemoaning that.

Did our promotion pass you by?

Youāre right their triple lock on taxes was ridiculous & boxed them in when they didnāt need to. If they wanted to raise taxes, they should have pledged to reverse Hunts last employee cut saying it was unaffordable & a bribe. What would it have cost them, a dozen seats? Instead theyāve spent 2 weeks defining āworking peopleā & have now increased pay roll tax. I work for a Dutch Company & we had a UK recruiting ban put in place last week. The reasons for that are above my pay grade but Iām sure the speculation didnāt help, and Iām certain the budget wonāt result in it being lifted anytime soon. -

No probably about it. She said herself that itās a tax on jobs. She also said it makes each new recruit more expensive and increases the costs to business. Sheās also claimed before that āit takes money out of peopleās pocketsā. -
He knows more about the game than any of us on here. Unfortunately, none of us are managing in the premier league, and the people who are know far more about the game than Lego fucking head does.

Another one, has Wilcox got a Lego fetish?
