Gloucester Saint

Usually want Sholing to win but…

Ironic thing Manny is that Ankerson is trying to play Tony Bloom and Matthew Benham at their own games, Solak has similar net worth to those two but with Brighton/Hearts especially, Rasmus is getting pissed over completely and shown up as a fraud. Solak could afford it but rather than cut the Ankersons loose he has no backbone. Go on Solak, do what do you promised, you aren’t doing us any good.

Mind you, if they sell AA and THB without replacing them…and I wouldn’t put it past SR

You can see why I left Southampton relatively early in my adulthood - and it’s not gotten any better since. If you’re an ambitious professional, you aren’t hanging around unless you want to land planes or sell cruises. 🚢 SR mirror the city’s chronic lack of ambition and drive. Cricket is the thing I miss, got to go to Edgbaston for decent cricket domestically and internationally here, whereas I used to love watching Hants and England at the Rose Bowl. Hampshire CCC leave Saints and Pompey for dust ambition-wise.

Interesting, I suppose as it’s unverified the major outlets won’t risk it, although it’s going to keep being raised and it’s like the rabbit on the greyhound track for the press to go after. Someone at the DoJ wants it widely viewed.

Imagine if Damion Thorn scores a couple. Second thoughts, even LSD couldn’t help imagine that.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/epstein-files-release-mentions-wild-182649588.html Not a hoax, but un-corroborated tips and allegations seemingly from the time. They were up on the DoJ site for an hour and then Bondi had them taken down. Up there long enough to do very serious damage to Trump though.

Remember, one sheet does plenty.

Not on Nic though.

It doesn’t look like a spoof but you’d have thought it would all over the news by now?

Tonda has a very rough set of floorboards - probably needs a Sanda to sort it out.

Don’t bother to engage with him. Nonce version of David Icke.

In Joe’s case on the way to McDonalds in Shirley.

She’s a bit alternative in her lifestyle and doesn’t scream front bench but she isn’t heavily tarnished like Braverman, Jenrick, Philip, Rayner et al with horrific corruption and mistakes in her profile either https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layla_Moran

Ashdown’s affair wouldn’t have mattered so much now despite the classic Sun headline of the time. Charles Kennedy would have decent as well if he’d kept off the sauce.

Leader yes, Sir Ed is too limited, but I’d like to see a bit more of their front bench before judging as an overall party. Our local MP is excellent, ex-military police and gets things done. He could certainly translate those skills into office.

On loan for AFC Sholing, yes. Give Damion plenty of space in the car park though.

Lib Dem-Con centrist/centre right coalition. Won’t happen after we got stuffed by it in 2015 but it’d sort the country out.

Eating reasonably well but had a chest infection which won’t shift in the cold/very damp weather and damaged my intercostal muscle during a coughing fit. Coughing hurting every time 😢

Yet more 🌮 but this time people were murdered as a result.

Loads of bits of tree on the roads. Have contented myself with Notts Co v Swindon as a substitute, not a bad game at all. County dominated but Swindon scored a worldie in the first half. 1-1. Holloway getting involved with the home crowd - some things never change. EDIT 2-1 County, sub scores straight away from Jatta assist. They deserve that.

Torrential rain and strong winds last night and this morning. So much so that Cheltenham v Gillingham, is off.

With the Conservative right wing membership and those who left that party as they felt it wasn’t right wing enough, certainly. And he’s miles better than Braverman or any of the other defectors, or indeed Farage or Tice. But he’s as ambitious and ruthless as Boris was in a party one man likes to call his castle, however much Farage realises he needs to build a front bench and plenty disliked him in the Tory party, including some on the right as well who saw an opportunist right winger compared to Braverman, Patel and others who they viewed as instinctive. It’ll be a bumpy ride and his intention is clear - bring the parties together with him as leader which plenty on both sides don’t want. Outside of the Tory right, he struggles with centrist voters and his southern gazumping estate agent image allied to the stench of planning related corruption allegations will deter ex-Labour potential Reform switchers in the Midlands and North. Boris could unlock those voters, Farage could unlock some, but I don’t think Bob has the same pulling power. But he could win them seats in the SE, East and SW.

If it was say Sajid Javid defecting, a long-standing and fairly solid Minister and Conservative, I’d have said that was a coup. That’s like Koeman signing Pelle or VVD. Let alone a Jeremy Hunt, very effective across several of the main Whitehall Depts. But Braverman? That’s signing Ravel Morrison. Badenoch was bit out of the order with the jibe, but clearly she reckons Suella is a liability and even Truss couldn’t wait to get rid of Leaky Sue. Sunak did so as soon as he thought she’d skewered herself. Her record as Home Secretary was appalling, worst ever, leaving record AS case backlogs. Jenryck didn’t help with all of the dodgy hotel deals as Immigration Minister. He didn’t hold any of the really high offices. Ambition and track record are divergent. Sleaze on toast as well https://www.lettingagenttoday.co.uk/breaking-news/2024/07/controversial-ex-housing-secretary-to-run-for-conservative-leader/ Kruger is a fundamentalist loon, Dorries is a piss artist, and Sarah Pochin really doesn’t like those black and brown faces.
