Why do they keep singing Bruce Springsteen? More entertaining than the match though.

Having Saka RW would work if Saka had a right foot. Liking the look of Mainoo thou.

I dunno, 2 yellows and the worst shot you'll ever see, so more excitement than normal. Or something.

Yep. That was sloppy. Fair play to Guehe though, doing what he had to do knowing that's him out if we get through.

No contest - Broja. Delap has proved that he can't do it in the championship. Broja has proved that he can do it in the PL. I can't fathom anyone saying that they'd take Delap out of the two. Delap cannot have done anything to persuade them that he's the man.

Always enjoyable, but they've done it loads and are neither current or legends. Glastonbury has to offer better for me.

Yep. IOW also.

Nice and succinct from Alan. He's right.

Blunter than I would be, but he doesn't look anything like a PL player to me, and has done next to nothing in his championship loans. Not a link that excites me either.

As simple as I can put it. The government made a decision. The SC said it was unlawful. The government have made another decision. The SC have yet to make any decision re that decision. Discussing this with someone who says that the SC undermining the government reeks of government intervention is about as pointless as it gets. I'm out.

Honestly mate, I'm sensing I'd be wasting my time. Frankly, it's a bit silly to accept that the SC told the government that they're acting illegally, then suggest government intervention.

It sounds like an explanation will be wasted.

Here is a summary of the SC decision. https://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/docs/uksc-2023-0093-press-summary.pdf Where in that did the SC as the government wants? Absolute bollox to suggest that the SC is the government patsy and we need intervention from above. Sure, states relatively fresh out of the eastern bloc and/or with political judges may need some guidance, but we ain't that state.

With or without reform we're having a labour government with a huge majority. Sure, a bunch of racists and little englanders will waste their vote on them, but they will not have any impact on the outcome. The constant highlighting them is almost as annoying as the party itself.

Nonsense. The SC overruled the government on Rwanda, ruling the policy illegal. That's not a court doing as a government wants is it. If and when a person impacted by the bill/act challenges the decision, our courts will determine it and in doing so must consider their human rights. Absolute nonsense to suggest that the courts will do anything other than that.

I'm with Chez. Signing Macca on big cash, a first choice, with Baz to come back ain't happening imo. I'm assuming Lis and Lumley will back up whoever we sign as number 1 until they resume the Baz shit show.

Show me evidence of a campaigner from another party asking a voter to kill immigrants under his care, calling for junior soldiers to kill immigrants in the UK, in France, and in Bradford and I'll grant you equivalence.

At this stage?

That's a sad state of affairs - essentially allowing Trump another term in this climate for personal ambition in 2028.

I don't buy that. The USA has a population of 340m people. Amongst that lot there'll be a democrat more able than Biden.

Old and past being president yes, senile no. Absolutely incredible that he's put up for a second term. He had a chance to put the boot into Trump last night but was just too decrepit to do so . The bit where his sentence tailed off and Trump said that he didn't know what he'd said and that Biden didn't know either, summed it up. He was an embarrassment, and having him in the running is pretty much giving Trump a free pass.
