The Kraken

I’d probably suggest she is one. Has one? That’s for another thread.

And here comes @Lighthouse, king of the moving of posts because they don’t fit in with how he thinks threads should align. Good job fella.

All statistics are made up for betting. All of them.

The Supreme a court has just unanimously decided that the Rwanda Scheme is illegal. Nit a good week for poor old Cruella.

New Conservatives have already released a statement basically saying that they’re not going to put letters in. Almost looks like they’re getting ready for life and party realignment after a lost election, so probably just lots of leaks about Sunak being weak / a liar up to then. Could be good viewing.

Cray Valley Paper Mills away. Get the train into Waterloo then catch the clipper to Greenwich, wander past the Cutty Sark, have a few beers in Mean Time brewery then into Goddards for pie and mash. Watch the game, repeat in reverse then head home.

Every time I look at that hate-filled halfwit I’m reminded of a Dahl sketch.

I tend not to look at her feet.

Ange is fucking brilliant 😍

Yep, agree with this. Right now I just want a government run by intelligent grown ups. Labour have an awful lot to prove and seeing Starmer already row back on certain pledges is a slight concern. But they’re certainly a better option than the current shower of shit and deserve a chance ASAP.

Just when you thought Sunak might have seen sense and ditched the culture war bullshit, he goes and appoints Esther McVey as the Minister for common sense and anti-wokery tsar. These lot really do need firing into the sun, never to return.

Tbf Priti is quite pretty from the neck up. Being shaped like a weeble from the neck down doesn’t help her cause, granted. Sue Ellen on the other hand looks like Dobby the elf.

I’ve only got great memories of JWP, and I still look out for him and am glad when he does well. I don’t really think he’s quite up to it for England though. As a deep holding player, I don’t think that’s his major strength and when he has played there for England before he hasn’t exactly stood out. He gets mentioned there because there’s such a dearth of talent and for some reason Henderson/Phillips are still being picked. Further up the pitch there’s so much competition for places, and Cole Palmer has also just been called up to the squad, I don’t see him dislodging anyone there. The argument to be made is instead of Henderson or Phillips but personally I’m not sure England are losing out on a huge amount by not having him there.

We’re the ‘Airport Stealers’ if I recall correctly. MLG alert: a small fraction of the runway is located in Southampton, though the majority of it and the terminal building is based in Eastleigh.

Sky showed a stat pre game, he’s already played more minutes for Chelsea than he did in total for Man City. City have also got an embarrassment of riches in his position so you can kind of understand why he left. He’s also been given pens so he’s clearly right at the front of Chelsea’s plans and will likely start whenever he’s fit. Unlike at City where the likes of Grealish and Foden are often on the bench.

Tories still predicted for the seat but a hell of a lot closer than previous years when it has been in the top 20 safe blue seats. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/fcgi-bin/calcwork23.py?seat=Fareham and Waterlooville

So harsh to only have one up and one down. It was ridiculous when they did it for the conference to league 2, thankfully changed now. I did read a while back that one or two of the managers in the top league said the league to expand the number of teams in it, so that could open things up a bit.

A Swansea squad that should have been bottom three but finished 6th and 4th in the two seasons before Martin took over. Rightyho.

Lowest save percentage in the league. But we’re better off with him than Shilts so it’s swings and roundabouts.

“There will be a couple of changes to the team, 1 of which if happens is not enforced” Most likely candidates S Armstrong, Sully and Alcaraz I’d have thought. Hope Bree keeps his place.

Also used to write the Windmill Diaries which were an entertaining read.

The absolute peak of forumming. The nefarious DoC; Richard Evans; big Chris and the rest of the work gang; gotcha. What a time to be online.

I’ve said it before but seeing him wearing a Ben Sherman shirt at Derby away after you gave him online pelters for his fashion sense was 🤣 Frank’s cousin , yep, I imagine he’s not with us any more so I’ll watch what I say, but he seemed to love a drink (and then post on forums afterwards).

Something horrendous like randomly battering someone over the head with a bat or an iron bar or something. Absolute cunt from the sounds of it.
