The Kraken

It’s one way to look at it. Another way to look at it is that there have been 15 games this season where we have conceded 2 or more goals. Thats just slightly more than 1 in every 3 games that we need to score no fewer than three goals to have a chance of winning the game. That seems like an awful lot to me, and gets beyond talk of outliers due to the obvious regularity.

The mattresses and sheets things is fine, it was part of the marginal gains thing that Brailsford had with cycling. Kind of makes sense really, pro athletes sleeping in different beds, make it as close home as they’re used to. Banning the echo, banning Franny and mlt, getting a national newspaper to report on you as South Coast Club, and getting the best sponsorship deal in Chilworth were all belters. As was interfering with and fucking up the kit design not once but twice (and still some absolute wallies lapped it up, “all red is good for the Asian markets” we were told). The Cult of Cortese were a strongly knitted group with spurious, nefarious objectives. We were well rid of them and Nic Nac in the end.

Another political tap in too, trains have got even worse despite the companies making massive profits and therefore dividend payments to shareholders. So let’s start by reinvesting those profits instead.

Gotta love gio and his superiority complex, the sanctimonious pillock, yet again giving it the “I think I speak for all Saints fans when I say…………” over-written waffle. Absolute prat.

🤣🤣🤣

Well, this is it, isn’t it. The Tories seem to have pivoted away from actively trying to attract the centre and are now actively trying to shore up their support more towards the right. A bit of a kick-in for Kier really as the amount of people who will see positivity from the Rwanda deal especially is surely a fairly small fraction.

Most people on here are far right IIRC, and we’re linked to a football club, so likely we’ll see you there.

I’m wondering who these people are that think “oh look, we’re deporting our refugees to Rwanda, I must remember to vote for Rishi Sunak for that”. I mean, I’m sure there’s some but not many who see it as both a cost effective and human natured solution.

Might pop to the alehouse at lunchtime for a pint of Spitfire. Greggs sausage roll on the way, moan about the weather all afternoon, shepherds pie for dinner and only fools on the telly. Being English

That was supposed to be the sentiment yes, many years ago. In truth it probably never happened, before VAR I’d suggest linos were more inclined to stick their flag up rather than keep it down when in doubt.

If it’s the same video as I’ve seen it certainly looks dodgy but also it does not show the position of the striker and the defender at the point the ball is kicked. I still think it’s a monumentally tight call. In real time and even the freeze frame I thought it was offside. Var lines are very close, that extra video puts a different slant on it but is entirely inconclusive on its own.

Steve Cooper would be a brilliant appointment. Ergo, it won’t happen.

I wonder how far we are from having offsides be as quick and accurate as GLT. They’ve already demoed semi autonomous offside systems in the WC and it seemed to speed things up a bit. Getting an onside/offside decision with 5 seconds would go a long way to sorting it IMO. The tech might be a way off though.
