F*** off Grimes... You pulled him to the ground you imbecile

Especially when they're playing a version of 'Russball'... Very easy to play against...

And, given outcomes in football are often determined on fine margins, I applaud you for highlighting why we need someone better....

Yep, hear this sort of thing all the time from my relative that works in the NHS. It seems almost all 'middle-managers' have a "play the system" mentality, rather than wanting to do what's best for the patient and/or taxpayer as their primary focus. And it's never going to change as politicians have a similar level of vested interest, so it's a self fulfilling prophecy.

Yeah, really wanted to be reminded of this... Thanks a bunch for caring about me so much Facebook....

Armarium

Halfwits on Facebook declaring "don't accept any friends requests from me, I've been hacked". No. Your account's been cloned, not hacked. Significant difference.

I used to have this problem with supermarket brand cling film... switched to Bacofoil brand and.... oh boy... absolute game changer....!

I guess the argument is, what's the point of getting the former right if we can get the latter right...

Statistically, I don't think there's enough parallel universes in existence for that far-fetched scenario to ever occur...

This has been said a lot today but is it actually true? Personally, I've no idea what the Tories did or didn't do as I've not been following the story closely enough, but I've also read that the Tories were acting on a number of the recommendations. The tweet below, for example* *Yes, I'm fully aware this Emily person I've quoted is an ex-Tory advisor so, of course, her thoughts can be filed under "well, she would say that, wouldn't she" (as with all confirmation-bias 'evidence' on either side of a debate), but is she blatantly lying or is there any substance behind this alternative viewpoint?

Whereas we always play our players in their strongest, most natural positions...

In a parallel universe, my old love buddy Ralph is still at the helm with Dragan's cash to play with, a proper football board structure in place, tearing up the league, and getting ready for another European campaign... 😁 #dreamon #oxfordcomma

*Ahem*

You seem to be implying we have players to whom that statement doesn't apply...?

I'll leave it for @Matthew Le God to point out that this is the first round that PL sides are involved in the FA Cup and, as such, we haven't had a chance of being knocked out yet...

When reminding yourself that such a striker might have been out there, will you also be reminding yourself that they might not...?

Good job we've got a fantastic "recruitment department" then, rather than having to rely upon Saintsweb members who know zilch about such matters (apparently) to convince players to join us...

Bless you

A bit like when we rolled the dice recently and got in a new manager you mean...?

Thinking out loud, I guess the only way loaning in a player now would make sense is if we can get a guarantee to roll the loan over into next season too. That way, we get to bed them in for longer. But, that's not how loans tend to work, unfortunately, so probably best if I stop this thinking out loud malarkey...! 😁

Fair point 👍
