The Kraken

Indeed.

What do you mean? He’s a very innocent man 😬

I don’t disagree but they’re not looking anti Abbott today, Big Ange has come out today and said there’s no reason she shouldn’t stand, I think also someone on the NEC said they’d be voting for her. Starmer has played it very well, said it’s a matter for the NEC but he only wants the highest quality candidates to put in front of the electorate. We all know what he means by that, it’s unambiguous without outright saying it.

They’re having a bit of a stumble today. The Diane Abbott situation should have been resolved ages ago but we’ve still got the will-she won’t-she stand nonsense going on. Just get on with it, make it clear she’s not standing, it’s a vote winner for some inside the party who have had enough of the mental left cranks and it’s definitely appealing to swing voters.

Burnley had a really poor window, spent all that money but their team never really looked all that much better than the one that got promoted.

Still think it’s such a shame they’re putting up such a generic blob of flats and not making more of the gasworks. Dublin did theirs properly and I think it looks great.

Just the two posts so far saying “I won’t be paying any attention”. Cracking work, and the CoT haven’t even got started yet!

4 league games for PSV and 3 for their reserves over the course of a whole season suggests he might struggle to contribute anything other than a financial drain.

What a complete and utter waste of police time. Ridiculous.

Jack Clarke looked full of promise prior to his injury; he tore us to pieces at their place earlier in the season. Not sure how he's been since he got back (March-time I think) but a total of 15 goals from 40 league appearances is pretty impressive for someone who isn't a striker. His agent is Ian Harte and he's been vocal that Sunderland won't be able to match his wage demands.

I have Norwich in mind, seem to recall a £3m price tag being mooted. Edit: or maybe it was Fulham actually.

100% agree. A week or so ago I had a look into his stats from Brighton last year, post below: This season at Brighton he’s started 12 games and come on as sub in 12. So either unused sub or not in the squad in 14 league games. Of the games he’s started, he’s only twice made it past the 60 minute mark before getting hooked. And he’s scored zero goals, assisted 1. He’s clearly still a pretty good player at some sort of level, but just such a risk for anyone to take as he can’t get close to finishing a 90 minute game. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/adam-lallana/leistungsdaten/spieler/43530

I think the officials must have been told not to referee it as if were a PL game. There were a few quite close offside calls which, in the PL, they would let play run with the lino keeping the flag down. Noticeably the flag went up for all of those reasonably tight decisions. (TBF its one area that massively annoys me in the PL, the abundance of caution when everyone can see its offside but they let play go on anyway). Also there really weren't many/any really controversial incidents in the game and certainly no blunders from the officials. Overall it was light touch VAR and I think more people might be sympathetic to using VAR if it could be done more like that.

The Tory campaign is going ever so well 🤣

You’re still peddling that lie are you? Absolutely full of it.

Please, no.

Shut up David you fucking melt.

Warnock losing his rag with the lawnmowers 🤣

Try telling my underpants that right now ☹️

Of course he’s going to say that and I think he’s actually been really fair. Said we were just better defensively.

@Kermitzasaintsorry lad, must be tough to take.

Fucking Stephens. So sloppy.

And who could fail to feel secure with this action man in command?

Corbyn is a twat no doubt, but I’m not sure if labelling him a pacifist and being in favour of nuclear disarmament is quite the slam dunk you think it is. Fuck me, there’s plenty to go after Corbyn about and that’s the best you can do? And I thought he was thick.

Clearly not true though is it. I know a few people who voted Labour pretty much all their lives but either they didnt vote at all because of Corbynor they. Opted for the Greens.
