Why have you butchered the quote - where does the BBC blog mention "doing the most damage to Jeremy Corbyn"? It doesn't. This is the actual quote: “Just before 9am we learned from Laura Kuenssberg, who comes on the programme every Wednesday ahead of PMQs, that she was speaking to one junior shadow minister who was considering resigning. I wonder, mused our presenter Andrew Neil, if they would consider doing it live on the show? The question was put to Laura, who thought it was a great idea. Considering it a long shot we carried on the usual work of building the show, and continued speaking to Labour MPs who were confirming reports of a string of shadow ministers considering their positions. Within the hour we heard that Laura had sealed the deal: the shadow foreign minister Stephen Doughty would resign live in the studio. Although he himself would probably acknowledge he isn’t a household name, we knew his resignation just before PMQs would be a dramatic moment with big political impact.” Doughty tweeted himself his reasons and far from being a helpless pawn in the BBC's propaganda plan decided to do the right thing before Corbyn's army of smearing, press briefing, rumour mongers start attacking him. Which they then did. It's hilarious the Corbynista bleating about the horrible biased media when it is Corbyn's main man Seamus Milne who has spent the last few weeks briefing poison about members of the shadow cabinet and trailing people being sacked for weeks. The spite from the likes of Ken and John McDonnell, plus Diane Abbott lying about the resignees on Newsnight, just give a far better insight to the reality of the "new politics" of this odd bunch. The doe-eyed saps who think Corbyn is some whiter-than-white combination of Obi Wan and Christ the Redeemer will, in time, learn where the bile is really coming from. Paranoia, retrenchment, laced with bumbling incompetence, which leads to lashing out, bluster and gibberish (hello Diane Abbott). But yeah, it's Laura Kuenssberg who is out of her depth.

Don't forget to include your zip code otherwise they won't be able to ship it to your condominium.

There really wasn't.

I've voted Labour at every election since I was old enough from 1997 onwards but Cameron all day long. Corbyn utterly unqualified to run anything or already proven incapable of making a decision about anything and surrounds himself with cretins like Milne and the questionable STW Coalition. It's a pointless question anyway, because Corbyn will never be PM and his shambolic version of the Labour party means at least 15 years of Conservative government.

Dear me. Oldham has been Labour, non stop, since 1970. Really not the strongest by election win for decades. Really, really not. And the House of Lords did for Osborne, while the idiot John McDonnell managed to make him and his red book the story instead of skewering the Tories. A pathetic shambles.

What?

Koeman has never put a team out like that, so no.

They deserve to lose. Liverpool have won one whole trophy in the last decade, they are in absolutely no position to start chucking the FA Cup in the bin. All those Liverpool fans who have travelled up to fifteen miles to get to the match tonight will be livid.

Lee Holmes looking much like the new Arjan Robben we were promised by Jan Poortvliet.

Is it a Christian? Surely we're due one, what with there being, like, loads of them or something.

Klopp showing how to do it on national television right now. #bloodthem #bloodthem #pleasebloodthem

This will be the same Targett that Koeman has talked very positively about in the interview at the top of this thread? That Targett? The Targett this is, without any question, our back up left back? That Targett? You tossed yourself off into a frenzy over players that Poch "blooded" on fewer appearances but crack on.

The minute he took office he was not the choice of his direct reports and even of those from the PLP who nominated him, several renounced their decision in very very strong terms. "Labour parlimentary party rejoices at election of brilliant leader" was obviously the headline should have been but the evil meeja with their lies and agenda obviously made something else up. Since then it's been one car crash after another, so not really sure how the press can be blamed for reporting that relentless cavalcade of clusterf uckage.

That's mainly because he hasn't done anything good.

John Cole or Andrew Marr would describe that utter effing shambles of a reshuffle in exactly that same way. Corbyn, by some considerable distance is the most pathetic leader of a major political party in my lifetime. They say he has no credibility because he doesn't. And let's not gloss over the fact that Seamus Milne has been asking Laura for advice on how to communicate Labour's message better. But yeah, it's her that's out of her depth.

Who is the SOMEONE ELSE he's SIGNED to cover left back in Bertrand's absence, then? That's exactly what he tends to do, right?

Matt Oakley is the answer. Get him and his laptop in our black box. #moneyball

The perils of not selling high. They've not really gained much by triumphantly holding off Spurs if they just flog him to Stoke who I can't see would pay as much as stingy old Tottenham.

Just blood them all Ronald, blood them all, blood them all.

I wonder if Watford in the Premier League will manage to increase their commercial revenue to above the level of Watford in the Championship? It's a tough ask because it's not something the greatest businessman world football has ever known managed to do with us, but good luck to them.

To be fair Adkins came across as rather clueless about the signing when he was asked about it - I know that time was peak "we do our business in private" nonsense but Nige's comments during the Gaston saga were a cut above the usual Adkins straight bat. Doesn't mean it was exclusively a Nicola signing but definitely more of a "club" signing than a manager signing (like, say, Billy Sharp). That said, let's just say it was definitely a Cortese signing and that he was a shortar sed Italian bellend.

Forward, Barrel, Till, and for 150 blanks, ....call.

In fairness, you are very easy to patronise.

Clueless.

Much like all the other theoretical plans on here. We won't be forcing players to sign six year contracts and we won't be stopping our best players leaving for huge fees and wages.
