The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.
Lord Duckhunter replied to CB Fry's topic in The Lounge
The only way you’ll get politics out of the NHS is to privatise it. if there’s tax payers money involved, there’s politics in it. Thinking the opposition won’t blame the government for poor service or governments take the credit for great service, is for the birds. There’s also the accountability question, who is a accountable for poor service, an unelected quango? If you don’t like the way the NHS is being run, vote the Government out. Don’t like the service your private company offers, move to another one. How do the public show their displeasure at the unelected independent quango’s running of the NHS. I presume they’ll pressure the Government to remove/change them. Hey presto, politics is back in it. The only way it’ll work is mixture of private and public provision. The NHS offers a basic service, with people paying for additional services. We should encourage more people to go private. -
He’s got a bit of class about him, nice little player. But we’ve got enough of those, I rate him but we need some meat not mince.

Anyone who wants to put more money in the NHS without fundamental reform needs to give their head a wobble. -

Tamesaint. The public want other people to pay more tax for better services. -
WTF is this pony? Wanking material for Billy Beane wannabes. Fuck me, we made do with the tennis bird scratching her arse.
-
Dear God. “Non ballers”, what sort of pony is that. It’s goals like this being disallowed that led to the rule changes.
-
No he didn’t, which is the exact point I was making. Had he stated the season as he played the last 2 games, he probably would have done seeing as Southgate doesn’t appear to rate Madison As for people trying to make out he’d have played the same position for Ralph given the same player’s available, I’m calling pony. He never played as far forward even when everyone was fit. Hence the title of this thread. Looks like dear old Ralph missed a trick and the cult are rewriting their bible.

He’s got tremendous ability but Klopp ain’t great for him. He needed drilling over and over, he needed coaching as a full back, ironing out his weaknesses. If he couldn’t be taught he then needed turning into a midfielder, coached and encouraged in that role. It’s called management & coaching, as opposed to accepting his weakness to concentrate on his strengths. It’s probably too late now because he’s behaviours are imbedded. I’d bet my life if the Jose of a decade ago got hold of him, he’d be able to defend ok.

If Jones had come in earlier he’d probably have made the World Cup squad.
-
He has had some absolute stinkers the past year, so that’s pony for a start.

Anyone who doesn’t think he’s been pony prior to the World Cup is a moron who doesn’t know anything about football. We’re not “lucky” to have him, anymore than we were lucky to have OR, Steve Davis or Danny Ings. It’s such a noddy attitude, He’s played a couple of good games under Jonsey & all of a sudden he’s up there with Matt. There’s a reason Lallana, Mane, Morgan, Big Vic, Shaw, VvD moved on and he didn’t, and it’s nothing to do with loyalty. At the moment he wouldn’t get in our best side of the past 10 years, let alone the past 40. Talk about getting carried away. He needs to maintain this level a bit longer than 3 games before objective people will start gushing over him.

Fuck me, some of you falling off the wagon & I’m climbing aboard. Unfortunately I’m facing a spell on the sidelines, Doc has prescribed blood thinners for 6 weeks to clear a blood clot. Says 2 units max a day and no heavy sessions. Might have to try out some of the 0% shite recommend on here……

He’s a class above Adams & Armstrong, but the hipsters will prefer Carlos Kick-a-ball.
-
He’s not the second best SFC player the past 40 years.

I’m reading a lot of old pony about interfering with play since that goal. You used to get perfectly good goals disallowed because somebody was offside by the corner flag, I don’t think anybody wants to go back to that. Imagine if Prowse free kick yesterday was disallowed because KWP was stood off side at the far edge of the area outside of the keepers eyeline. Nobody on here would be quoting Shanks or Cloughie. The issue is that football (as in players, managers, pundits) have pushed for consistency. The drive for less and less subjective decisions has led to complicated wording and rules around what used to be the referee’s opinion (handball is another one). The rule should be very simple “ if in the opinion of the referee the player is interfering, he’s offside. The problem is referees will have different opinions and managers will start whining about one goal given one week, and one disallowed the following week.

The Tommy Doc way. When appointed, he told the chairman of Rotherham “I’ll get you out of this league”. After relegation the chairman said to him “You’re man of your word Tommy, I’ll give you that”.

Most of it this century. It makes me laugh when you’ve got Oliver Holt, Henry Winter and other twats constantly running them down the past few years. No stability, sack managers too early etc etc. they’re up with city as the most successful club this century.

It was meant to be Claude & Brady but Claude is ill

As another Jones in traveller who also received a load of clog, I agree with every word. Some people clearly jumped the shark when we had a non league manager stating; he’s out of his depth, Lyanco wouldn’t get in the Havant side, and bizarrely that a bloke who hasn’t played since, faked his injury. Posters lapped it up.

Typical Soggy. Pages & pages of people wanting him sacked, with just a few of us defending him, no sign of Soggy urging us to remain calm and give him a chance. . All of a sudden he wins 3 games and here comes Soggy preaching. 😂😂😂

So in answer to my point that Ralph was holding him back this season, you bring up last season? 🤪 I can’t remember too many times that Prowse, or any other midfielder, arrived like he did for the first goal. Get the ball up to the forward & run off him. Not since Koeman have we really done that regularly , if it becomes a regular tactic it’ll be another feather in jonseys cap.
-
Some of us thought that all along. 27 of us, most accused of being him or his family, voted no in the sacking poll. Now I realise why you pay such attention to my posts, you want to learn. Good lad, you’re never too old to gain understanding . 😂
