A return to home working is a massive change for employers who benefit from having staff in the workplace, for staff mental health by being around other people and not being isolated, and the businesses who benefit from the footfall of workers. Its a massive retrograde step in many ways. Hiding from it ain't living with it.

I've never been asked for any ID, just a screen shot and waved through. IOW festival, let's rock, gigs, they've just gone through the motions.

Yep. I'll check the details when announced, but my staff "can" work from home to a fashion, recent months have shown that they can work a hell of a lot more effectively from the office.

Ha!!! Felt dirty for days after. Decent gig though, almost worth the trauma!

Probably, but I doubt staff will give a monkeys. I went to see Paul Choudhry at Portsmouth Guildhall a few weeks ago. Groups of people openly sharing one screen shot of a passport and showing the same thing to staff who knew the score, and being waved through. Complete farce, and compliance will be even less after the recent disclosures.

Oh come on, you appreciate the point. The announcement, today, can fairly be questioned as a diversionary tactic and rather looks like one.

We've got to wait for the HiV or Marburg to kick in first apparently. I'm guessing his theory is that the AZ vaccine gives us one of those viruses with some kind of time delay function, and Moderna or Pfizer another virus on another time delay. I'm guessing that the booster of a different type of vaccine is to ensure that we get 2 different deadly vaccines to make sure we definitely die. His head is fucked.

"No deadly virus". Behave. Some of us have buried people. The only people who have "been conned" are daft pricks like you.

Gun

Wouldn't fancy that on current form. Cracking day out though.

Yeovil away please. Should be a stroll, and a nice little away day reasonably close to home.

What was the plan? The evil vaccine, the virus, or both?

That must be right, but I have a feeling his contract was extended last summer. It seems his 3rd place duties are to fill the bench when we have nobody else, but never be trusted to actually play. Bizarre use of wages.

What's the purpose of us having Lewis around the place as 3rd choice if he's not going to play when the 1st and 2nd choice can't? Seems completely pointless.

Probably. I just saw comment that we're better than last year so made the point that we're in fact worse than we were at the same point last year.

It ain't a pedantic thing - we're 15 games into this season and a year ago we were 15 games into last season. We were doing much better then than we are now. Any suggestion that we're better now than we were a year ago is wrong, we're much worse.

In the last 15 games of last season we scored 18 and got 14 points.

If we're looking at a year ago, the first 15 games of last season is surely the comparison. We're well down on those levels. If we're talking about earlier in 2020, we're going back 18 months to 2 years to the latter half of the 2019/20 season and that's a bit of a pointless comparison imo. However you cut it, we're worse than we were a year ago. By miles.

After 15 games last season we were 9th, had scored 25 goals and sat on 25 points. In what way is 15th place, scoring 14 goals and only having 16 points better?

Yep. Or gone down himself to have the opportunity to get the message over. Anything but play the other team onside.

This is a shit wind up mate. Give it a rest, please.

Blimey. You're defending the indefensible.

Not sure where you're coming from there. McCarthy should have signalled to come off or gone down to get the message over, and JWP shouldn't have put himself where he'd play their players onside. I can't see there's even a discussion to he had to be honest.

It's got nothing to do with fitness or what's said. It's as simple as the other manager making changes and us not reacting or adapting. Shit game management / tactical competence. Nothing more, nothing less.

Of course, that's what opinions are for. Armstrong has done next to fuck all the whole season but despite that your opinion is that Armstrong "has a higher ceiling" than Broja. I doubt even Armstrong shares that opinion.
