hypochondriac

Hello! Great to have you back, it feels like 2005 again. Can we bring back javi, montys turban, red and white panda and ascoli please???

That isn't really saying much considering how terrible they have all been.

I haven't been listening. How does yoshida sound? Hope he's doing well.

I'll be back once we go down I expect. Either that or get a new owner who actually gives a toss about what we are doing. Some of the best fun I've had as a fan has been when we were rubbish in the lower leagues. Exeter away, West Brom away with Lallana scoring at the death, Walsall away cleaning out the bar, Forest away when we weren't sure if we would have a club to support.

I just don't care as much at the moment. I expected us to go down last season and I stopped being bothered about it by about February when it was clear they weren't going to change the manager. I've been to one game this season but I probably won't go to another one with the current setup. I don't think the club really care much anyway so I certainly don't.

How could anyone be happy with a 1 or 2-0 loss to wolves??? We should be looking for a draw at least.

...

Amazingly we agree. Silly posts like that don't do anything to solve real issues.

I'm also concerned about violent Marxist supporters on here who support violence. Something should be done.

With respect lighthouse, it's the serial abusers who throw around horrid and unsubstantiated slurs like far right, racist and islamaphobic that are the real problem here.

If there's one thing that always_sfc knows it's humour on the Internet.

You're a strange sad little man.

Yeah I have to agree with that. There's some concerning things coming from Labour and the anti semitism thing was handled appalingly, but let's not pretend we are living in some sort of nazi Germany type country. No Jews will have to leave the country if corbyn gets in, even though a lot of people may want to leave anyway once he tanks the economy...

Oddball.

If I'm upsetting the likes of yourself, jonnyboy and always_sfc then I'm definitely doing something right. Thanks for the encouragement and I couldn't give less of a toss what some virtue signalling weirdo with an ego the size of a reasonably priced car thinks of my postings on an Internet messageboard.

And jonnyboy joins in. Some weird little love triangle.

I bet big business really despise Maduro but it doesn't mean I want him running the country.

And as if by magic: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-45642660 An absolutely insane idea which will exacerbate the problem and lead to further closure. He's a buffoon.

I wasn't talking to you but your reply is just confirming the theory.

Are you soggys f*ck buddy? It's an easy conclusion to come to considering how often you figuratively suck him off.

I disagree. The last tory election campaign was the worst in my living memory and she still managed to beat corbyn.

Has always_sfc won the thread yet? He must have at least double the number of contributions than anyway else.

Sadly not. Labour will be increasing the amount of "free" childcare they offer should they get into power which will exacerbate the problem, not a chance will they allow nurseries to charge any sort of top up considering that they view business owners as evil heartless monsters and employees as saintly and virtuous.

Because whilst running costs and wages continue to climb, what the government gives to nurseries for each child has gone down and it won't be changing for another couple of years at least. The arbitrary offering of 30 hours "free" childcare was a campaign promise by the tories purely to counter a promise from labour who offered 20 but it wasn't properly thought through or costed and nurseries now receive less per child whilst paying business rates, wages, resources, bills etc etc. Add to that the pressures from Ofsted, the stresses of dealing with certain parents, child safeguarding issues (in many cases nursery workers are acting as social workers due to the real social workers having too many cases to deal with) and it's no surprise that groups are closing. What the government should have done if they wanted to help parents is either properly funded things or heavily subsidised childcare whilst allowing nurseries to charge a small top up to make up the funding shortfall. This would have dramatically reduced childcare costs whilst allowing nurseries to make up the big gap in their funding that suddenly developed but inexplicably they failed to do so. This explains it quite well:

You obviously know very little about nurseries, probably best to stick to discussing subjects you know something about. Nurseries around the country are closing at an unprecedented rate, it will become a crisis in the next couple of years unless something changes. Maybe your views are just too London centric - although if you asked the London early years foundation you'd get a similar response. Really odd that you claim not to care about anything to do with me yet you brought up my business and continue to discuss it in detail with no actual knowledge about it at all.
