Ripe for a return then...?!

Just spotted that Davey is due to appear at the Post Office Inquiry on 18th July. Handy for him that it's not before the GE I guess...

Jason Beer on top form today. Just seen that he won 'Barrister of the Year' award yesterday. Give that man a gong!

Someone needs to put this inept organisation out of its misery

I guess my point was, how does clever people (like you and I) slagging off the thickos help convince them to vote for someone else? My theory is that being continuously slagged off actually makes them more likely to stick with their "stupid" voting intentions than not. In other words, what does slagging them off (on an internet football forum or elsewhere) actually achieve?
-
How did slagging off the thickos in society work during the Brexit campaign...? It's almost as if the more the thickos are mocked by the clever people, the more likely they are to vote for the very parties that the clever people slag off... Might be a new verse for Alanis Morrisette in that somewhere....

Totally agree, but for this bloke to sit there grinning from ear-to-ear and referring to a 'loop hole' in the contract to get him off the hook must make the postmasters feel like punching his lights out! (metophorically of course) Shame they had the softer questioners on duty today.

In response to the the statement put to him: "the Fujitsu software was proven to be not fit for purpose" he defended Fujitsu's position be responding: "the software being 'fit for purpose' was never written into the contract" Jesus Christ, is this man for real...?
-
Cheers for the thoughts Badger - appreciated 👍
-
Christou says he "had no knowledge" of any prosecutions during his tenure and is "surprised" that Fujitsu staff were giving evidence. What exactly did he get paid for...?
-
You mean we get to go through the fun and joy of last season all over again? Could be worse....
-
Wow... this Richard Christou fella giving evidence today (Futitsu ex CEO & Chairman) is giving a masterclass in arrogance, ignorance, smugness, self-aggrandising and lack of emphathy. Responsibilty? Accountablity? "Nah, not me guv, I was just the CEO / Chairman and knew f*** all about what was going on in my company". Someone please wipe that perpetual grin off his face please.

Did they introduce 'austerity' just because they wanted to (ideologically) or because they felt they had to (in order to deal with the consequences of the 2008 financial crisis)? (I'm not trying to make a party political point here, just interested in what the underlying motivation/driver might have been for 'austerity', even if, according to those with a different philosophy, it wasn't necessary)

Actually, in all seriousness, what is the typical "market rate" for stadium sponsorship these days? Given the FFP shackles we seem to be in for this season, surely it'll be worth doing a stadium sponsorship deal of some kind, even if it only raises enough funds for one new player, say?
-
Yeah, fair point.... On reflection, that's never gonna happen...
-
You're not the first Saintswebber to notice that and I'm sure you won't be the last
-
Just get United Group to sponsor the stadium for a few hundred mil, surely....?
-
That's almost as good as Joe Rothwell's goal of the season, to be fair
-
I reckon a loan move to a newly promoted PL club with Turkish connections would be his best development path....
-
Can this "ignore what they did or said in the past" philosophy be applied to all politicians or just the ones you support...? (Asking for someone who gives a toss about these futile political 'debates')

So sorry to hear your desperately sad news Noodles. There are no words and I can't begin to imagine how you're feeling and coping. Rest in peace Elijah and heartfelt condolences to you and your family 😢❤️
