LGTL

Why are we having to bend over backwards to accommodate this?

I know they are all, but the one in green is a particular wrong’un.

Time to enact the 25th amendment. He should be removed immediately.

I was happy to buy a season ticket, nobody forced me and with their '2 week' refund policy, there was nothing much to lose. And here I am, still waiting for a refund from the Man Utd game in November.

Where on earth did that come from! Diallo was fantastic and Ings is world class. Something lovely to cheer us up in this shit time.

I taught 120 children today, all of whom were no doubt mixing over Christmas. Just unnecessary for one poxy day. Cheers Johnson. Why oh why could this not be announced over the weekend? It’s breathtaking.

I’ve heard from a decent source that we’ll be without McCarthy, Adams and Theo... Hopefully it’s wrong. Also mentioned that Obafemi might get the nod alongside Ings.

Whenever I go into my local supermarket, there’s a traffic light system to control numbers meaning I can safely socially distance. If it’s red, I wait outside. When I get inside, there’s a one way system and it’s usually full of law abiding adults wearing masks who understand the need to stay 2m apart, not full of young children trying to lick your face. Then when I get to the checkout, there’s handy floor markings allowing my to queue up safely with 2m distance. The staff are either behind a protective screen, wearing a face mask, or both. I then sanitise my hands, as I have throughout, and leave the shop. Schools by their very nature are not Covid secure and never will be. This comparison is utterly pointless.

I imagine they’ll end up closing them within the next few hours, let alone weeks!

Didn't take long for the first Tory U-turn of 2021. Gav has now decided all Primary Schools in London will shut. The most incompetent minister in history.

Are they sending the refunds by carrier pigeon FFS? These days it’s doesn’t take barely a day to clear into a bank account, let alone 2 weeks.

This has been really, really poor, especially second half. Ings looks affected by this poxy contract situation.

I’d have kept Adams on over Long, no matter how poor he was. What’s the point?

Schools have been the elephant in the room since September. With this new variant clearly more transmissible among children, the government have a clear choice to make. If they decide to keep schools open, they need to level with the public that the R number is very unlikely to fall below 1 as a result. Get teachers higher up the vaccination list and then batten down the hatches and hope for the best until spring. The current dithering and window dressing cannot be allowed to continue. The choice is easy - keep them open and have the virus largely out of control until spring, or close them, reduce the R number but deal with a loss of education, exam chaos and mental health issues. I don’t really envy those making the decision.

This game has the referee it deserves

God the quality of this game is beyond awful.

Laughable that Salisu isn’t ready to start.

Vestergarrd out for 4 weeks FFS

Replacing Ings and Vestergarrd with Stephens and Long. Strength in depth.

I’ve read all 2000 pages and can confirm it’s not as good as Brexiteers insist and not as bad as remainers insist.

Quite. It was an election won on delivering Brexit and delivering Brexit only. And they’ve done that, fair play to them, let’s see how it goes. Thank goodness a proper public emergency that’s a matter of life, death and finances hasn’t come along to test how really ‘proper’ they are. Ah, bollocks.

Pretty much spot on CB Fry! Good call.

Let’s be honest, they’re absolutely useless.

Southampton moved into tier 4 from Boxing Day. So no more crowds.
