Surprised if it's a permanent deal, how is he going to react when he loses his place to baz in January?

About an hour ago.

I heard a rumour that you don't have to live in Shirley or ocean village if you don't want to. Just a rumour though, unconfirmed. Plenty of nice places for a footballer to live in the new forest, and closer to staplewood too.

I did put a /s - I was referring to the argument earlier where posters were being told they were irritating in their posts because they were autistic. I am also autistic by the way, so if you find my posts irritating that could be why (/s again).

Is bijlow autistic? That could explain the failed medical and why he posts in an irritating way. (/s and jk in case it isnt obvious)

Sounds lower than usual, could starmers tough stance already be paying off?

Think people need to adjust their expectations. On paper, and by the bookies, we are this year's whipping boys. We're going to lose most of our games. Just being competitive in games and still having a chance of points after 60mins play is an achievement here. So only losing 1-0 is pretty good, and the reason we are as high as 16th. It's a long season before we get to win games in the championship again, if you are bedwetting now, what are you going to be like later in the season?

How idealistic of you. I trust that if alex Scott gets the job you will be amongst the first celebrating her success, and not calling it a woke appointment? Because nowadays, a black woman can't get a lead part in film, tv series, or presenting job without the antiwoke brigade throwing a baby tantrum. The whole intent behind woke is to give the best person the job, it just seems to be very upsetting for some people when it turns out to be someone who isn't a white heterosexual man.

16th.

Meh, we'd take this position after 38 games. Bearing in mind if we want to be a yo yo club, every other season will be spent losing a lot of games, this is not too bad. I would like to see a bit more urgency in injury time though, frustrating to still be jogging around with the game on the line.

Consider this point of agreement: Brexit has had a major impact on many facets of the uk including the economy, immigration, and laws. If we all agree with that, then it's just a case of weighing positive and negative impacts, and considering that we may have different opinions on those. For example, we are now able to dump sewage like never before. Some people, who don't want polluted rivers and beaches etc, might think that's bad, but others might think that is good, eg it allows utility companies to be more efficient in how they manage waste. Similarly, a drop in eu immigration has led to more immigration from further afield, leading to an increase in ethnic diversity and more immigrants from africa and Asia. Some celebrate that, others might think it's bad. It's without doubt cost our economy overall, but has benefited other countries, eg france, who don't have the Dublin agreement to worry about anymore, and they get to make our blue passports for us. There's always winners and losers, so you can't say brexit has been good or bad, it's just your perspective on whether you prefer a European collaborative effort to improve quality of life and british business, with free moving eu immigration and major trade deals, or whether you want Britain to have its own sovrinty and increased nonEU immigration, and have it's own smaller trade deals. If it's the latter, then you have every right to view brexit as a success.

Agree with a lot of the above, not everyone who voted for brexit was a bumbling idiot who got fooled or scammed. Many of the people who voted for it knew what the consequences would be and voted for it anyway. Plenty of people can absorb the cost and just couldn't care less about those who can't.

Bazunu has a quality long pass, which we saw plenty of. (18.6% of his passes were long balls)

Shows its not enough, so in that sense yes, I think the 77k job is fine but they need to employ more at lower level, 30-40k roles to implement the strategy.

Slightly less. Black: 24.5 stop and searches per 1,000 people White: 5.9 stop and searches per 1,000 people Mixed ethnicity: 9.9 stop and searches per 1,000 people Asian: 8.5 stop and searches per 1,000 people

To be fair, he scored a beauty against the best team in the country...

Delgado was a star. Without him we would not have beaten peak arsenal, probably the best side we have ever beaten. He won the pen to go 2-1 up and then scored our 3rd. It's a shame some of our fans didn't like him for some reason.

How do flights and accommodation for two people and 2 nights come to over 30k? And what does Mr Harborne gain from it?

Bruno did go down after a feather touch near the end. The (geordie) commentator said it "showed his experience"...

At least we're not Everton...

I think most of us didn't expect us to compete anywhere near as much, that was a lot better than expected. Showed we can probably get a few wins against the bottom half teams.

Tactics spot on. If we don't have the ball we look vulnerable, so the more we keep it the better in this league.

We miss bazunu, no doubt, but this is very promising for January when he is hopefully back. And finally, after decades of watching, we finally have a player who knows to go down when you get headbutted.

Primary objective should be to keep within 2 goals of them, would take a 3-1 defeat please.

Ironically, this is the list I use to debunk those who say there are "over a hundred genders now, lol" as it demonstrates how that number is reached. For transgender, for example, there are around 30 terms used for the same thing. If you boil it down it comes to 4 or 5 definitions.
