Gloucester Saint

He’s a bit busy working out which Saints Academy starlets will be turning out for Gosport Borough in two years’ time.

Similar refuelling habits, allegedly.

That’s akin to Katie Price commending someone’s standard of driving a car.

SR are planning to sell the Japanese youngster to the Bundesliga so the rumour mill had it.

Glimmer of hope for the mid-terms, if both Houses switch, or even just the Senate, the process of reversing some of the damage and making him a lame duck can begin.

Hope Jack never gets involved in prisoner transport and custody services to Exeter Crown Court after his playing days. There’d never be any trials because Jack lost the prisoner in transit.

The VAT hang up is weird. It’s neither a left or right wing tax, Maggie doubled it in 1979 and Blair kept it there as both focused on lower income taxes. And all domestic suppliers over the threshold pay it as well as international. It isn’t specific to the US. A 10% UK tariff will just mean our consumers accelerate the trend of preferring not to buy American goods where they can, even if the government doesn’t reciprocate.

10% is better than 20% although I doubt it’s the same impact as losing 6% of our economy through the type of Brexit we had. Closer links with the EU will wipe out the impact of the 10% and probably washing our face overall. I’ve seen various different reports on the impact, some economists saying it will be very little and not worth worrying about, but others pointing to specific sectors such as whisky which is more reliant on the US market. 25% on 🚙 across the piece though. Mind you, the ones we export over there are at the luxury end, eg wealthy Dems or GOP who won’t be fussed by a few $k extra. Building them over there is unlikely after the Mercedes experience in the Deep South, the cars are absolute dogs. It’ll be his rural base, and a lot of it is rural, that it hurts the most. Typical pick up truck they love up $10-12k new after he whacked Canada on metals. They voted for it…..not many buses around there.

Probably the best Juric could put out, let’s hope Palace have a cup hangover and they’ve been stuck in traffic. I know, we need a Trousers gif with someone clutching at straws….

We’ve had another R all season - Rank

Sturrock at Southend IIRC

In a Saints context, you could argue 09/10. After we’d sold Dyer, Surman and McGoldrick to stay afloat before Markus was confirmed, and ton of players like Skacel waived their final year, the only senior players remaining I can recall were Paul Wotton, Kelvin, a 37 year old Chris Perry, Saganowski, and a very injured Lee Holmes. Lallana and Morgan were somewhere inbetween youngsters and Senior, although clearly good players in the making. A smattering of youngsters - Lloyd James, Joseph Mills, Matthew Paterson and that was about it. Thomson as well. TBH most if not all would have been nowhere near a Championship first team but for Lowe’s legacy which Wilde made worse. We brought in that summer Jaidi, Harding, Hammond, Connolly, Barnard, Lambert, Waigo, Antonio on loan just off the top of my head. Puncheon and Fonte came along later in the season.

Plenty of things - great to see a far right billionaire, who is very unpopular in this country, failing blatantly to buy an election. It’ll be a blow to Farage, Tice and Candy although no doubt Musk will try to corrupt democracy again. It’s very good news for those fighting to protect women’s rights over their own bodies, as winning this race meant that Wisconsin judges had a majority to invoke 1850s laws banning abortion. It’s one in the eye for the groups with US funding trying to mobilise against abortion here. A rare bright spot ahead of the mid-terms in 2026. Trump’s second term going as well as Saints in 2024/5.

Hence the previous government’s free speech legislation re-introduced with some tweaks, as Sussex just discovered.

I don’t care for it, even though I vote for them, but the electorate does. Look at their 2024 GE performance, Boris did loads of farting about, Farage has, whereas others get called boring.

Good for him. After 3 years at the club, let’s hope he’s actually contending for the first team squad and adult football in year 4. I’ve heard of signings for the future but this is getting towards the extreme.

More from the fascism/communism/totalitarian playbook.

Accept it? I’d rip your arm off to grab it with how this season has gone.

Probably swigging Iron Bru on Weston Shore. Or maybe we need a picture on a milk carton to go with Larios and Stewart? Time to give these a call https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unforgotten

Alleged misuse/Embezzlement of EU funds, exactly what brought down Nick Griffin and the BNP, leading to their eventual de-registration as a political party.

The sad thing is that there are probably people around the SR boardroom table who would actually think that.

Strange player. Gets forward well and can put in a peach of a cross if you play with a target man or even a striker of some description. But defensively - oh boy. Surprising that Serie A big clubs want him given how Italians pride themselves on defending but perhaps they believe out of the car crash of SFC they can intensively coach the basics of positioning and using your feet rather than your hands. And obviously undo the impact of Russellball. The club has too much going on to devote that sort of focus in the way we used to in better times so perhaps take a profit minus anything to AZ and put it towards a £10-12m RB instead who should be the best in that league.

He’s not been on here so much of late.

So flustered he could barely finish a sentence. And this is supposed to be a supportive crowd as well, with all of the numbskulls chanting USA, USA! MAGA accused George Soros of buying elections and interference, er what is this then??

I wouldn’t appoint him as manager of Red Bull Chandlers Ford.
