Of course you have.

Would be very interested in the 09/10 Season review. I knew they made it (it was played in the Chapel concourse at the launch of the Sash shirt) but it was never given a physical release.

A comment at the end of that article. "The failure of younger generations to accumulate wealth." A reliance on credit, stretching beyond means. I have Baby boomer parents and for them, the idea of going into debt for anything other then a mortgage is absurd. These lessons were passed onto me, and although I do not live as extravagantly as some friends, my personal circumstances are far more secure. The normalisation of debt as a means to an end surely has, has to be unsustainable? This shared ethic plays a part in my support for austerity measures, but the need for a specific term for it is worrying in itself because, frankly, it just feels like common sense. Do not spend what you cannot afford! Or perhaps I'm just old before my time.

I cannot argue with this point, all I can do is be relieved that the BNP were sidelined.
-
It does seem to work in favour of the more traditional powers. But equally, it kept UKIP and the BNP away from significant influence too. It does mitigate the crackpots as well as the smaller less harmful groups.
-
Despite my leanings, would laugh if Amber Rudd lost her seat.
-
Two safe Labour seats where the numbers have not matched the exit poll. Interesting. Either way, UKIP are toast. For the best.
-
That's a red/blue mixing nightmare.
-
The election was not the error, the campaign was.
-
I would love nothing more then to see Diane Abbott go down for the full 'Ed Balls.'
-
I'm not sure, they have certainly attracted a loyal and vocal core, but reaching out to the ambivalent masses? Corbyn's strategy of targeting core Labour areas and Labour marginal in his campaign indicates he was trying to shoot fish in a barrel rather then take a risk and really reach out. The seeds he has planted in the minds of younger voters will play out interestingly though over the next decade or so...... And this I believe was Corbyn's intention all along. I don't think he expects to be Prime Minister, but he sees a chance to play a longer ideological game. But back to the original point, we shall see at 10pm with the exit polls.

Apparently Katherina has been evading tax. Anything to deflect from their own maladies.
-
Ha. Still expect him to sign for them, just with an extra 10m added to the price. After all, they cannot afford to alienate the 'scouting network.' Still, wonderful to get some humility from those perennial self-righteous entitled victims.
-
Avoiding the melodramatic tone, you miss the point made by Batman and Manuel. No point having a deterrent if the person in charge finds it vulgar. It's a contradiction for Corbyn to fund it when he will not use it. It may as well not exist on that basis. As such, he is at best wasting billions, at worst leaving us vulnerable to annihilation.
-
On the contrary, if you are going up against an enemy who will not fire then you hold all the aces. Remove the threat, remove the deterrent.
-
You have turned political debate, a discussion about our very country's future, into a slagging match about a football strip from 4 years ago, and you have the temerity to call me a nutcase? What are your feelings on that statement, not in relation to me, but in relation to Jeremy Corbyn?
-
Avoidance, bravo. #spineless, #unfittolead #cbfry Petit little man. Care to answer the original point, about the suitability of a prime ministerial candidate who will not answer an important question?
-
We are in an international community where there are threats we cannot imagine, you seriously want to have someone in charge incapable of making that ultimate decision? Jeremy Corbyn will face responsibility that no-one will be able to relate to in that position, and he cannot even address it in front of a TV audience? I'm sorry, but I consider you naive. Heaven forbid we find ourselves in a desperate place like that, but it's best to be in a position where the nation can defend itself rather then roll over. At that point, when life and death takes precedent, a 14% pay cut is somewhat immaterial.
-
A movement that got what it wanted. Now when I continue my life-long shirt collection, it's for shirts that reflect the club identity I love (as do you, he who would be aggressive even though he wanted the stripes back himself.....) The two red shirts are now merely a curiosity. Welcome to 2013 ladies and Gentlemen. CB Fry, your memory is a marvel. What do you think of the point i'm making? Or are you going to avoid it like Corbyn?
-
So you do not think the Prime Minister of Great Britain should have the capability to deal with that decision?
-
It's the ultimate question as a leader. To what lengths will you go to defend this country? That he avoided the question tells me that he unfit to lead. He cannot be pragmatic, he cannot compromise his own principles for the survival of our country. Our entire nations' defense would be undermined by having that spineless individual in charge.
-
And with that, I am entirely sold.

The badge and UA logo are a bit scrunched.... But, like it.

All about the ex academy lad who came back to haunt us for Midjylland in 2015. http://thesetpieces.com/interviews/interview-tim-sparv-no-stats-star/

I look back fondly on his time here, shirts not withstanding. But, the way he operated would eventually have caught up with us. So, best of luck Nicola, but we've both moved on.
