Looking forward to the Copilot assistant button on the forum. 🙂

I shall consider ordering mushy peas to add veggies to my fish and chips.

He is 50, but he's eaten a 32 year old just before the game.

"Open to all UK adults online, taking as little as under 20 minutes" Our first 20 minute introduction to AI module could be summarised as "for the love of any god you like, don't make your decisions based on AI." 🙂 Mind you, I was listening to someone in our place yesterday basically saying she was unable to construct a comms without it. A worrying dependency on the basics.

I remember thinking the same when Boris got the top job. His popularity and personality easily overcame a life of lying, back stabbing and grifting. I can't recall how many of the New Reformers were also tainting his government.

Hell

I received an unordered trimmer for nose hair, with a note saying I'd need it. 3 months later, he was right! That's the power of Nostrildamus. I now return you to your scheduled footballing misery. 🙂

She does have a Dynasty to keep going.

It's really where football went wrong. In the old days, every community was a thriving hub of clubs. Just a group, getting together under a name and playing for the enjoyment of playing, for however long it lasted. Then people came in looking to organise, control and yes, manage the players. Where's the freedom from your working life when someone comes in telling you to keep possession, because of something their slide rule is telling them? These people just couldn't leave football alone to develop organically, for the better.

And deny him an opportunity to see Spors rebuilding plan through? To break up that managerial synergy? Surely not!

The scale, and relative seniority, of the defections means that, like every political party, there's going to be a rebalancing. Reform presumably hoping for the new weight to make it attractive to previous Conservatives, while maintaining an olive branch to the disaffected from other parties. At the same time though, will be those at the right of reform who will now have seen a lot of people, looking to nab top spots, arrive in their own party, and who they may consider not radical enough. As @Lord Duckhunter indicates, if more move, the weight of who is left could then resemble a more centrist place. Caught having to pretend to be reform and not leaving enough room between themselves and Starmer to resemble a Conservative party. By blocking Burnham, Starmer has stymied any party-wide move back left. For as long as that stands, he's holding together a broad party, and voting base. Only the Mammary Mesmirist and Corby's Boys Club to keep an eye on. That's the range any electable party needs, and Reform will be looking to get.

Turkish takes a wrong turn going to the shops in Boston, and runs into some ICE problems...

For what it's worth a conservative, not MP, who worked one of the rapid fire iterations of the previous regime, made the following points:- Despite being in the government, the defectors were the ones trying to support the right of the party, only to be prevented from doing that. The recent pronouncements from the Tories, trying to be reform lite, does not match what's going on in the party. That there were a considerable number within the party that wanted it to be more to the left, in liberal democrat territory. This has resulted in Reform getting a lot of experienced politicians, keen to show that Reform are the only ones really placed in that right side of the traditional conservative position.

Too much football knowledge for Rasmus to feel comfortable. I reckon...

We've Suguwara under contract until 28 and signed Roerslev until 29. Tonda also likes a wing back. Bree could provide competition on the left too, but we have Manning and Welington there. So, at least 1 is going to have to go, to give realistic room for Bree, I'd guess.

They are just on a lucky Rohl. 🙂

Can't speak for OASAAS, but I'd have taken the bench and nailed either side of it to the posts. It's our only chance of an away clean sheet. The players can just stand on the touchline for being less effective than furniture 🙂 Edit: I was fine with the choice of subs. Some work needs to done on how we play when they are on.

Yup. Mixed. Some of the downsides contributed to our lack of effectiveness. For which, he can join a number of others for their mixed performances. Good to see him getting minutes to develop.

yeah, but he's the division's leading scorer, innit. I just wanted to join a fraternity. 🙂

I know! Exciting times, when Cifuentes joins us! 🙂

Like Tonda only asking the players to make an effort in the first half, SR get things over and done with as early as they can in a season. Who says the club aren't aligned from top to bottom?

Puzzle

The only interview question was "Will you adopt the system we decide, in the formation we want, using the players brought in using our wonky database, all under football genius Rasmus?" Since Tonda said yes, and Carrick's reply was filled with expletives, it was clearly a wise SR decision.
