Jesus H - why do we panic so much whenever we take a lead?

That's bolocks. He was already airborne and going over before he made contact with Romeu.

Super Danny Ings!!!

Overall, it's not been as bad a performance as I predicted beforehand. We seem to be keeping Wolves in their own half pretty well, but still looking a little shaky when they do threaten. Gunn will be the man most relieved about the two disallowed goals, as he could and should have done better on both occasions. First time racing off his line with no chance of getting the ball, and then parrying a weak shot into the danger area. Up front, we seem to be having good possession around their area but, again, not making the right decisions with it. What does Bertrand have to do to convince Redmond to actually use him on the overlap FFS? JWP, as usual, is anonymous and offering nothing going forward, and I would replace him with Boufal at HT - though we just know Ralph won't do that. I hate to tempt fate but I reckon the game is there for the taking. Wolves are not firing on all cylinders today so if we don't get anything from this we will only have ourselves to blame.
-
Yeah, once again he's been let off. The ball was flicked so slowly towards the goal - there's no excuse for parrying it back into the danger area at that speed.

Thank f*ckety f*ck for VAR.
-
Well I was just about to post that I think we're looking alright here and seem to be keeping Wolves largely quiet. Then that happens. FFS Saints.
-
Clearly not. RB can rightly be frustrated with the number of times he busts a gut to make the overlap only to be ignored.
-
You keep repeating this, but literally nobody is actually saying it.

Neves down injured now.

Twice in recent weeks we have conceded thanks to Gunn racing off his line, and still he does it. WTAF is going on with him and our coaching?
-
Fook me. What was Gunn doing there!? So, so lucky for him it was handball.

Villa 0-1 Brighton.

Bennett Injured. Early forced change in the Wolves defence. Might work in our favour. Yes, I'm clutching at straws.

I've never had to register for it. Make sure you're clicking on the right video, because the one at the top is a false link. You have to scroll down to the next one.

Stupid, stupid challenge from Valery. Reminiscent of his over-eagerness in his first few games for us.

Can only really echo what's already been said. Too many underperforming players guaranteed to start week after week, with no decent competition for their places. Lessons seemingly not learned by Ralph. It's worrying. I predict we will huff and puff a bit, recycle the ball a lot with no end product or penetration, maybe score a goal from a lucky penalty or a bad mistake, but concede at least two due to being overrun in midfield and people not tracking the runners. Then Ralph will leave it far too late to make any changes again, and Wolves will score another late on to seal the points. It's all too depressingly inevitable. In fact, I don't think I'll even bother trying to find a stream for the game. It will only put me in a bad mood.

The problem with that, as the last 3 and a half years have shown, is that it doesn't matter how good or bad the deal actually is, because there is a very large section of British society who will vote for it no matter what if that is the only option to actually leave. It could include a clause requiring all British people to hand over their first born sons to the EU for scientific experiments or something equally horrific as part of the severance deal, and a huge number of ignorant c*nts would still rather vote for it than remain.

Remember David Cameron's scaremongering in the 2015 election campaign when he warned people not to vote for Labour as they would end up being ruled by the SNP?
-
Don't forget that Johnson had previously said that no British government ever could or should enact anything that put an effective border in the Irish Sea, and he hated May's deal so much he resigned from the cabinet over it. So forgive me if I'm a little skeptical that this 'fantastic' new deal is actually great for the country. Johnson doesn't give a shiny sh!t. He's only interested in being seen to be the man that delivered Brexit. The details and the consequences are of no importance to him.

The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.

Yep. And it's a bill that will provide us with pretty much exactly the same environmental protections that we are bound to as a member of the EU anyway. -
If we're going for comparisons from that era then he's probably more like Ian Andrews than Tim Flowers at the moment.

I was referring more to Aintforever's first line, about change not happening quickly enough. But to answer your question, do you think we should hold a referendum on whether or not to take urgent action on climate? Reading some of the ignorant, deluded boll*cks people spout on Twitter about it, I would be horrified if we did that. Personally, I'm happy to put my trust in the research and the consensus of the global climate science community, and would be very happy if we had a government who actually listened to expert advice on these matters. But we don't. We have a PM who takes most of his advice from Dominic Cummings instead - a man who is possibly about to have his Commons security pass taken away due to being found in contempt of parliament earlier this year. So much for democracy, eh?

Case in point: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-49960817 This is precisely why drastic action such as that being carried out by XR is necessary. Governments and industry simply cannot be trusted to act in urgency otherwise.
