You forgot sclerotic.

Covered in my first sentence. Tactical masterclass of bringing a £200k per week striker off the bench. Not entirely convinced that beating Southampton is the pinnacle of achievement for a Manchester United manager but fill your boots.

He's still got Manchester United resources and a Manchester United squad, so beating Sheffield United not that much of an achievement. He is clearly an appalling manager. The results he is getting are basically anyone could get. He's working at the same standards as someone who won the chance to be Man United manager on Jim'll Fix It.

At the end of the day its win-win. The first eleven we have now are better at delivering Ralph's system than the Danish headless chicken ever was. But the boy has landed on his feet at Spurs and Jose loves him. To be honest I would like to see Spurs win the league so it could be a great move. Good luck to Pierre. Bang average while here, I didn't think we'd miss him too much and thankfully we haven't.

Ooh, I could rip a tissue. Can I not have a Muttley medal instead?

I see yesterday the anti-Saints BBC reported on "West Brom sack Bilicand turn to Big Sam" but they did not report on "Southampton continue to employ Ralph Hasenhutl because he's doing an excellent job" Absolutely disgraceful.

I can't believe we didn't bring on Shane Long to finish them off.

The sovereign independent government can do what they want. I didn't vote for these cunts so i can have all the "issues" I like with it.

Fuck knows what you're on about. Either way, we're only days, maybe weeks, away from seeing what those masters of negotiation Frost and Boris come up with. Whatever it is (or isn't) it will be entirely the work of our sovereign independent government working with full independence and sovereignty. In short, totally down to them to own.

I don't need much of a memory to recall that time when the current true blue brexiteer patriots capitulated to the demand that we put a permanent border down the Irish Sea, deal or no-deal. Sell-out Theresa May said she would never sign up to that, of course.

That's because it is an afterthought. It's worth eff all.

Theresa May immediately appointed those world famous remainers Fox, Davis and Boris Johnson to the three cabinet positions directly related to Brexit. Sopping wet pinkos the lot of them.

Aint it though. The only condition is people need to own the consequences of their decisions.

Of course it is. The sovereign Independent UK government can do absolutely anything it wants to. The EU aren't stopping them.

He's accepted the notion of a Biden Administration. So really mission accomplished for all those involved in vote dumping, fiddling the machines and paying off the officials involved. Great result lads. I never thought they'd get away with it but fair play you've smashed it. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

He's conceded at last. Not quite John McCain levels of dignity and humility but you can't have everything.

What did you think "we're getting what they voted for" meant? We is everyone.

Couldn't give a flying fuck. They've won and we're getting what they voted for.

The dins will never accept it but if we are sovereign then it is impossible for us to be punished. Our sovereign, independent government will make sovereign independent decisions as a sovereign independent nation. Every consequence therefore is entirely a result of the sovereign independent government making those sovereign independent decisions independently. We can only punish ourselves, because we make all our decisions independently. Because we are sovereign.

The more Boris ramps up the no-deal likelihood (this morning we are now up to "very, very likely") the more it feels like we will get a deal. We're a "memorandum of understanding" on an "arbitration panel" away from a deal. The only objective Boris gives a shit about is to look like he's won. That's infinitely more important than anyone's job, or fishermen or business (Fuck business, as he said). So he just needs to ramp up the catastrophe to give him the room to concede everything (as he has already done on Ireland) and paint it as a stunning victory. Come this time next week they'll be a deal and we get to listen to the Guido-ette dinlows on here giving it the "and you said it couldn't be done" routine all over again.

Well we should absolutely walk that no problem at all.

I've seen the draw and we've got Huddersfield away. Disappointing.

All that can be achieved is a reasonable percentage of people will decide not to travel halfway across the country to sleep on the put-up bed at their parents house, or decide to have a "small Christmas this year" and so on. I have no doubt there will be a % decline in household get togethers, the average family Christmas table will be smaller than usual, Christmas travel less than usual etc etc. To be honest that is all that can be reasonably delivered. Some people will rip the arse out of it but no one is going to get a knock on the door on Christmas day, so they can. Let them get on with it. But the number of arse-rippers will be balanced out by an equally significant number of the super-cautious or the "its only one year, let's stay here" people who will go the other way.

Shane Long has come on and that means goals goals goals.

There's been some absolute horseshit written on this thread but I take my hat off to the notion that "there is only a finite amount of money in the world at any one time". Dear me.
