    Summer transfer window 2024

    It was objectively funny that Saddlebrains got handed a 50-50 shot at a major transfer deadline day scoop, and went all in on the incorrect answer. Fine margins in this game.

    How do you do that, if the elderly make up the majority of voters?

    You seem quite protective of him considering you don’t know the guy.

    No, it isn’t - otherwise I might have said it.

    If he goes to Molineux (or The Hawthorns, or Vale Park) then it’s bad optics to WBA/Port Vale/etc fans, who he’s presumably also trying to get to vote for him. It isn’t much more complicated than that.

    Bad optics is my real answer in the post you just quoted, and you don’t need to act all mystified when a politician moves preemptively to avoid them!

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    My guess is that appearing at non-league teams is a way of appealing to football fan voters without dabbling in the hyper-partisanship that comes with Premier League/EFL teams these days (and would probably trump any party political loyalty in the minds of a swing voter).

    I thought the national service scheme was for 18 year-olds? What are you going to punish their parents for?

    If both are available, what are you getting from Enzo that you wouldn’t get from McKenna? Wild appointment.

    Well they wouldn’t be eligible for the military service part. I’m sure there are hordes of immigrants who’d see no problem in doing volunteer work if it meant they got into the country, and plenty of others would just dodge it the same as British 18-year olds would.
