  1. I think it may be a case of telling Boufal this is his chance, as he's rumoured to be unhappy at the lack of starts. Can't be for his defensive qualities. ? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  2. Sorry. To clarify, I don't disagree that he'll be off if he/we get the right offer. But at the moment, I think the actual clubs mentioned are just thinking aloud by journalists, agents. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  3. Or Newcastle, or West Bromwich, or anywhere. All made up. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  4. Even if it's not nonsense, with McQueen, Pied and Targett all injured, there's not much option. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

    Targett and Austin back in training this week. Austin aiming for U23 on May 5th. McQueen had a knock, out for about a week. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  6. But not all the teams below us will have a resurgence. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  7. Found myself at Wembley. Decent game, similar to ours last week. Didn't think Arsenal were much better than us - got lucky more than once but just put away a couple of chances. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  8. Arsenal V City at Wembley. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  9. Lol. ??? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  10. As I'm retired, every day is a Bank Holiday. It's just annoying when others have the days off too. ? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  11. Opinium: Con 45%, Lab 26%, LibDem 11%, UKIP 9% Certainly a landslide on those figures. UKIP collapsing, Labour going nowhere, Tories steady, LibDem up but not massive. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  12. I'm old-school. I check my own spelling. And I can spell. And why wouldn't you use a standard keyboard? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  13. That's amazing. Never had a phone that auto-wrongs spelling. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  14. There are obvious problems for them at all levels. Corbyn has launched into the campaign in the style of a personal crusade like his leadership bids. This will be popular with Labour Party members - they voted him in - but, beyond that, who knows. The problem is the vast majority of his candidates don't subscribe to his socialism and/or don't believe it'll get them elected. Asked immediately after the announcement of the election whether Corbyn was an asset or liability to the party, one MP couldn't answer. Although, if they were as genuine and committed as Corbyn, I think they might do surprisingly well on that platform. So they're in limbo, not able to support their leader, not singing from the same hymn sheet and it's unlikely that their agenda will form the manifesto, so they won't be campaigning in line with official policy. God knows whether they can get elected on that basis. And it looks like Jeremy is too committed to his one-man evangelical campaign to countenance supporting a broad church within the party. Or will he endorse candidates he knows are opposed to him and will want him out as soon as the election is lost? Labour isn't one party. It's as divided as you can get, so yes, a real car crash.

  15. I have to accept you have a point..... ? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  16. I can't argue with that but I was flabbergasted to meet people who thought it was a referendum on leaving, so if they didn't vote, it meant they were for Remain. That's a problem with democracy. It assumes everyone has the ability to analyse the options before voting and to understand the issues. But don't say I'm undemocratic. It's better than the alternatives. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  17. 52% of those who voted, 37% of "the people". You carry on believing that the Government want Brexit, and we'll see. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  18. And I think it highly likely that the hierarchy of the Tory party are still trying to find an escape route that won't mortally wound them. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  19. I agree. The Link Dems never had the power by themselves to control tuition fees and this was a carefully planned attack, mainly by the Tories and their puppet press, to destroy or at least weaken the LibDems. The​ problem was, they did it too well and got an overall majority, forcing them to stick by the manifesto promise to hold a referendum, which they never wanted, and assumed coalition partners would block for them. But the rest is history, or history in the making. And a mess. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  20. If the Tories stick with their arrogant, non-debating, no questions approach, they will undoubtedly annoy plenty of voters. Corbyn and Farron have little to lose and, for once, offer real alternatives. I doubt that you'll be proved right, but it's possible. And, just think, if she's forced into a coalition, May will have someone to blame as she heaves a sigh of relief and ditches Brexit. ? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

  22. It's just an example of the way things are going. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  23. No need. It's already happening. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  24. This is just too tedious for words. That makes no sense whatsoever, I certainly didn't say that and it's becoming painfully obvious that you either can't or won't follow an argument. Rather than waste any more time, think I'll concentrate on football matters. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  25. I actually agree with that. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
