Wrong, wrong and wrong. I don’t boo, mildly or vigorously. I certainly don’t drink the piss they serve & wouldn’t be seen dead in a kit. Other than that, good point well made. It’s peak noddy to want a refund for football tickets. If you’re entitled to a refund for watching shite over the years, they’d owe me thousands, but it was worth every penny to get away from the snap dragon for the day, having the craic with mates, visiting different ale houses, meeting new blokes. Going to football isn’t just about the football, if it was the ground would be fucking half empty.

Richard Tice asked Sir Kier in parliament, if the uk hits net zero by 2030 how much will the world’s emissions be reduced by. All he got was a load of waffle as a reply. Self harm on an unbelievable scale. We need to drain the swamp and kick out the green lunatics infesting the establishment.

I want my £5 refunded for reading this ridiculous thread.

Only taking 4bn from the welfare budget is the immoral thing. The genuinely poor, the sick and disabled could get more money if people taking the piss were targeted and forced into work. This isn’t a genuine attempt to reform benefits, it’s a cynical move to try and stop the OBR stating she’ll break her fiscal rules. So I shouldn’t worry about the implications, it’s just tinkering around the edges. Genuine long term welfare reform will cost money & pain short term, and neither party has the balls…. -
I agree. There are still some fantastic games, and the players are unbelievably skilful & athletic, but there’s something sterile & clinical about the way sides play now. I’m hoping the possession based pony is going out of fashion with City’s demise, and the game moves towards a more aggressive Klopp ball type of game. Personally, I hated Lego ball last season even though it was effective in that league, much prefer watching the way Brentford, Forest or Bournemouth play than we did. Let’s see how Newcastle attack today. Let’s hope they go all out and create chaos, show aggression and go for it, rather than mince around keeping the ball…

2 is fucking unbelievably high for the number of times we actually get into the box.

Damning admission that just shows how complacent, unprepared, and out of his depth he really was. This is the fucking 2024/25 season not 1953/54. For somebody to be surprised by the athleticism, power and quality in these data driven days, multiple cameras at every game and statistics coming out left right and centre, is fucking unprofessional …

Open your eyes man….

So can Gary Neville, Roy Keane & Alan Shearer who were all pretty horrendous in the dug out. It’s easy, I can pitch a story well & break down analysis nicely as well. My analysis is this; Lego head is an arrogant cock who isn’t half as good as he thinks he is…

I’ll clarify it for you then….He basically is a massive bellend. HTH

“Shalom Hamas' means Hello and Goodbye - You can choose. Release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick and twisted! I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don’t do as I say. I have just met with your former Hostages whose lives you have destroyed. This is your last warning! For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance. Also, to the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are DEAD! Make a SMART decision. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW, OR THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY LATER!" –President Donald J. Trump

I’m hoping Eddie Izzard is considered for the role of Mo in the upcoming adaptation of The Satanic Verses. What could go wrong?

Who is looking forward to the new production of Jesus Christ superstar? I think Robert Powell is going to face a run for his money when it comes to the iconic portrayal of The Lords Son….

Yep, good to see Starmer following Reforms idea of cutting foreign aid and spending it at home. The precedent has been set now, let’s hope Rachael from accounts uses this method when she runs out of fiscal headroom. -
Didn’t do any good. GB News has comprehensively won its judicial review of TV regulator Ofcom’s decisions that two shows hosted by Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg breached the broadcasting Code. In a landmark ruling the High Court found that Ofcom’s conclusions - that the broadcasts, on May 9 and June 13 2023, breached the Code’s due impartiality and content regulations - were unlawful. As a result, the Court has quashed the decisions and awarded GB News its legal costs. The historic judgment is the first time the broadcasting watchdog has lost a judicial review of one of its decisions in relation to the Broadcasting Code.

That’s a bit child like, It’s not a football team. There’s millions of floating voters, who vote for a particular party, doesn’t mean “it follows” they support “the program”. I’m sure there’s millions of Labour voters who oppose their Winter fuel cut, or the NI rise, and there will be even more who won’t support the cuts coming down the track. Where’s this loving you talk about, because I don’t even recall discussing Reforms economic ideas, yet alone loving them… -
We got 2 lucky wins, Everton should have scored & the Ipswich keeper had a Baz. Perhaps if we were fitter and the players cared a bit more, we’d be up with the mighty Ipswich.

Like Ranieri at Leicester, and even Bally with us, he was right man, right management style at the right time, with those particular group of players. Give him hard nose seasoned pros or the twats we’ve got now, and his positive pony won’t work…He’d be chewed up and spat out by premier league players in 2025…

I’m criticising them for lying to people, and doing the same things they criticised the Tories for. Employing vanity photographers, flying around in private jets, cronyism. Whether they were right to limit Winter fuel payments is debatable, saying you’ll protect it and then not doing so, isn’t. It’s especially hypocritical when they attacked the Tories and claimed it wasn’t safe with them. There plenty of other issues, where the hard reality of government has clashed with their soft arsed view of the world. But the fact is that didn’t stop them attacking the Tories when they had to make difficult choices. Same as posters on here, had the Tories done a lot of things they have, people would be condemning it, no acknowledgement we were overspending, no excuses, just heartless tories. It’s funny as fuck, and I look forward to the excuses, when Rachael from accounts brings us Austerity MK2. -
We certainly look slower than any other side, unfitter than any other side play safe more than any other side. I don’t know if that’s a fitness issue, a Lego legacy issue or a mindset issue. It doesn’t help that players like Manning, Downes, Smallbone, Airbo, THB, Tall Paul, Bree, Bednerak, Captain Jack, have an absolutely zero turn of pace in any of them. Too many one paced wonders. It’s not only about raw speed, OR wasn’t particularly quick, but he was quick in thought and could nip in with a quick couple of steps. We’ve just got so many plodders. You can get away with a couple, if you surround them with dynamic, quick, urgent players, but we don’t have enough of them. You can get away with it playing Lego ball in the Championship, but at this level it’s disastrous. Who have we got, Dibling, KWP, Sully & MF? I don’t really know why Ivan is persisting with his tactics. He’s either on his bike or has defo been told he’s here for the long haul, because it’s a pretty horrendous audition he’s putting in ATM. That doesn’t absolve Lego of any blame, the majority of this shite is down to him. His culture, his players and his hospital pass handed to Ivan..

It’s the fact they lied to people about them and even criticised the Tories, claiming they were going to cut it. Just like they promised farmers they wouldn’t change inheritance tax, told the Waspi birds they’d compensate them, “not a penny extra on your council tax”, £300 saving on energy bills. They literally said anything to get elected, I’ve never known a Government go directly against so many promises or do a complete volte-face on so many issues so quickly. Even the Lib Dem’s only did it on one issue. The mental gymnastics of some on here is a sight to see, and there will be even more of it when Reeves runs out of headroom and starts to cut spending.. New Broom 😂😂
