    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I'm sharing this again, because it's ominous. Anyone who's had any recent experience of mental health provision in this country will know it's on its knees. Instead of pressuring seriously ill people (and trust me, if you've been admitted into a hospital with a mental health issue these days...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Yes mate, on this, you clearly are.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Putin did it to overthrow a democratically elected European government that wouldn't bend to his wishes, and because he thought it would be over in a couple of days. It wasn't over in a couple of days because the vast majority of Ukrainians were willing to fight to preserve their freedom. You...

    England - Lee Carsley Era

    Southgate mark 2, except less media friendly. I liked Carsley as a player, and I'm sure he's an entirely decent bloke, but he's no more attack minded than Southgate was, and any decent team will embarrass us if we just sit on the ball and wait for things to happen. It's just tedious in the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Fuck me, there's plenty more mate, it's just I'm a bit busy! 😁 It's funny though, how a bloke you lauded for "political hygiene" is actually so sodding useless at it. Let's be honest eh, turns out he's a bit of a grifting, lying, incompetent twat, who doesn't think well on his feet - he's not...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I'm not sure about lying exactly, but it's definitely a lack of precision which is a little surprising in a barrister. His uncle's ship was either bombed or struck by missiles. It's a minor point really, but it's got a hint of the "dad was a toolmaker" vibe about it - over leveraging a...

    Possibly, although I don't think she's got a filter. That impulsive nastiness within her, and let's be honest she's an odious person, might be more exposed as leader of the party.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Exactly that. BadEnoch would just complete the seeming capture of the Tory party by the right-wing culture war loons. I suspect a rebellion would play out in fairly short order from the slightly more sensible MPs, but who really knows. Capture from the right of a party and brooking no...

    The “too many cooks” theory

    Ah, I miss those fun filled days. Alas, two turkeys do not an eagle make. That ship has sailed. 😁

    Questions that I genuinely can't answer

    Mate, you're an old cynic. Doesn't mean you're wrong though. 😁

    Poll: Robins In or Out? Part 2

    Chopping and changing managers in an endless search for success is an awful model. Look at Stoke and Watford. Trust the bloke you've got, the one who brought the club back from the brink, and the one who has dealt with far worse situations and come through it all. Robins has earned that...

    Poll: Robins In or Out? Part 2

    In, for me.

    Match Thread Coventry City-SWFC Match Thread- Saturday 5th October

    Having kids, it's a bit like relegation from the Premiership: the first twenty years are the hardest. 😁

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    For clarity, it wasn't exactly an invitation, it was paid for. In essence, it seems the DJ charges for the "invitation" to be on the decks with him. As such, like it or not, it's a paid for gift - the DJ was paid by his agency for her to be "invited". Now you're either in favour of politicians...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Blackburn Rovers Match Thread - Tuesday 1st Oct

    Chuffed to bits with that performance. I think the primary difference was attitude. The tackles were going in right from the off, and we were looking to shift the ball forward much more quickly. In fairness to Robins, I think this is exactly what he said he wanted in the Leeds post-game...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Perhaps because the chief apologist for a genocidal, apartheid regime, that has now killed tens of thousands of innocent men, women and children, decided to shut the fuck up for a bit. I think a little while ago you were asked this: If Hamas or Hezbollah, or Iran had installed explosives in the...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Hideous. Absolutely hideous. And who wouldn't want the bastards behind it to burn in hell. But what Israel has done and is doing in Gaza is also horrific, and is a slaughter of innocent men, women, and children on an even larger scale. One act of terror, no matter how horrific, surely does...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    And I swear, some people don't get angry because it's the party they support rather than the one they don't. Again, you can't know that there's no corruption, or the intent of the donors. Whether the parliamentary rules have been broken or not isn't the entire point. It's the hypocrisy of...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Who knows what any donor to a political party or individual MP, cabinet member, or Prime Minister wants? Certainly not you or I, and to assume that Alli doesn't want anything because he's already a Lord is nonsensical. And to suggest that the press shouldn't have the right to bring these kind...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I'm not calling US voters out on the facts mate, I'm calling you out on them. You keep coming up with how unfair it all is to Trump, but other than some vague conspiracy theory about how Hunter Biden's laptop discredits 700 national security personnel, you've deliberately avoided anything...
