Dorking Wanderers manager has received a touchline ban of 6 games for a comment he made about women referees parking 😂😂. Obviously, there are more women referees now, so you have to pay a bit more respect. Do you know what I mean? You have to pay a bit more respect like… help them park.“

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
Lord Duckhunter replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
I’d have thought Sunak & Hunt would have probably managed decline a bit better than Starmer & Reeves are. Increasing NICS & her first budget did incredible harm to the economy and they’ve never really recovered from that cluster fuck. It’s only going to get worse, because Reeves will be back for more taxes and increased borrowing despite promising she wouldn’t, and I doubt he’ll be smashing the gangs anytime soon. It takes a special kind of incompetence to be so unpopular and so hamstrung a year into a landslide, but he’s somehow managed it. He’s a dud, a plodder who was over promoted because he wasn’t Corbyn. If they don’t bin him soon, he’ll hand the next election to Nigel on a plate…. -

There’s plenty of in fighting, Sue gray anyone, and they’re now briefing left right and centre. It’s been a complete and utter shambles from Lord Alli & winter fuel through “Island of strangers”, to the latest cock up where it looks like we could have 2 tier PIP benefits, with 2 people with the same disability receiving different levels of support depending on when they were diagnosed. A Government with a 100 plus majority that can’t get this small fiscal measure through parliament is a dead duck. What ever you and other lefties try and pretend , you know deep down that this has been far far worse than you ever thought it would be. Incompetence & muddled thinking right from the very start. The bloke and Reeves are completely out of their depth and the party needs to ditch both to have any chance of a re set…. -

In opposition, Reeves kept quoting the IFS & Paul Johnson in particular, especially when it came to Kwasi Kwarteng. I wonder what she’ll make of his assessment of her spending review. He’s called it; “the most incomprehensible speech I’ve ever heard from a chancellor’… -

Wines a piss take. Small, Med or large. You can’t go back with a small or medium as they put it in such a big glass you look a right tight arse taking that back from the bar.

They should have let the lunatic & her floating boat of twats sail in and deliver their miniature box of aid. I’m sure the people of Gaza would have been really grateful and looked after her….

The crap ones fell by the wayside years ago, it’s biting into the decent ones now. The cost of their energy, the price tenants are paying for their booze, and Government payroll taxes are killing them. When you add in the cultural changes, I don’t know why anyone bothers to run an alehouse out of big cities. The only people not screwing the landlords I know,are the bands & singers who are still performing for what they got pre Covid… There’s hardly any experienced bar staff around anymore, most youngsters don’t have a local & don’t seem to appreciate this great institution. You even see cock wombles queuing up at the bar nowadays FFS. Personally, I’d tax off sales more and boozers less and then radically reform the tied system. Get the Government & the brewing cartels off their backs.

I know 3 long term landlords jacking in recently as costs are killing them. The turnover of tenants is ridiculous locally, with a combination of Reeves & Brewery’s/ pub cos’s making them uneconomical. The last Government started the rot, but this lot are making it even worse, and that’s before the ginger growler gets her employment act on the statute. The problem is there’s always some sap who thinks he can run a boozer, so nothing will ever change until we run out of mugs and it’s too late…

Not debatable at all. The “style” was entirely down to him….Unless you think Janny B’s best asset is his passing ability..

Not every Rangers fan is unhappy . Just seen this online, McFabrice is putting a positive spin on Lego’s season, The one thing we know we’ll get with Martin as manger is he QUICKLY implements his style of play Focuses on possession, passing accuracy and building up from the back Hard to judge him on Southampton as they had such a bad season. Few games to look at from his time there Won every game in the Carabao Cup (stoke, Everton and Cardiff) Beat Everton in the league Drew away to Brighton Drew with Ipswich Only lost by a single goal to- • Aston Villa away Southampton had more possession 53%. 485 passes. 90% successful to Villa’s 409 and 86% successful • Liverpool home. Liverpool scored a late penalty to win. Less possession but still 38% against Liverpool. Scored twice and lost to a late penalty • Man City away. Lost 1-0. 42% possession. 461 passes with a 90% successful rate • Leicester home. 2-0 up at HT. Get a red card second half and lose 3-2. Almost DOUBLE the shots on target that Leicester had. 41% possession. Possession got a lot worse second half when down to 10 men. • Forest home. 65% possession. 656 passes. Lost 1-0 • Newcastle away. Lost 1-0 but had 78% possession. 19 shots and 649 passes to Newcastle’s 181. Dunno how they managed to lose this one 😂 Look at his games and their posession and passes Forest home- 65% and 656 passes Man Utd home- 44% and 480 passes Ipswich home- 54% and 492 passes Leicester home- 41% and 359 passes Stoke home- 79% Everton home- 65% Liverpool home- 38% and 359 passes Chelsea home- 45% and 429 passes Tottenham home- 41% and 426 passes Newcastle away- 78% and 649 passes Cardiff away- 73% Brentford away- 63% and 621 passes Everton away 75% Bournemouth away- 60% and 568 passes Arsenal away 41% and 395 passes Man City away- 42% and 461 passes Wolves away- 71% and 673 passes Brighton away- 48% and 414 passes Villa away- 53% and 485 passes Average possession is 56% per game Average passes per game is 497

And how proper management & coaching can improve a player. He was going nowhere before Clough & Taylor got hold of him.

Whereas we were so loaded we could bin him off & sign all those expensive quality replacements. If our squad was so strong in the championship that he wasn’t worth keeping, perhaps Lego should have won the league….. Still what does Davy Moyes know about modern management?

I would wait til his trial before making the assumption he threatened anyone.

Perhaps you should take your own advice. In other words STFU….

He interviewed brilliantly and, says a source, "gave the board an awful lot to think about". I wonder who the source is….😂😂😂 I know who my money is on….

Lego was like Glen Hoddle, without the talent. Jones spent the weekend after getting sacked playing for his mate’s amateur team, Lego probably spent it sat out side a Brighton hip coffee shop, dinning on smashed avocado, Quinoa and chick peas salad washed down with a Vegan Chai Latte. Don’t think Glasgow is for him. I can’t see his walking football going down well. Mincing around at the back in an Old Firm derby won’t go down very well, and I dread to think what a fried Clif white chocolate macadamia nut bar, tastes like….

We moved a couple of years ago. I rang the club and they sorted. I gave them a list of the new seats we wanted and they told me to log into our accounts the next day. When we logged in they had switched our old seats for the new ones & we then “renewed” them. It worked really well actually. The problem with following the correct policy & renewing your existing tickets & then swapping during window , is newbies can come along & buy up the ones you want to swap to. If there’s seats free you fancy now, I’d contact the club and they may do what they did for us. If there’s none you want and you want to see what’s available from people who don’t renew, you should renew your existing and then swap in window.

Good. They need to pay their way and stop piggybacking on the back of the men’s game.
