The stupid post is the one that claimed under PR “everyone’s vote would mean something “ whereas under FPTP is doesn’t. Neither he or the genius’ calling out Weston have explained how this is the case. So I’ll ask again. What is the difference between an independent candidate receiving 35 votes under PR and receiving 35 votes under FPTP. Being one of the 35 voters, why will my vote mean something under PR but not under FPTP. Because unless you follow Westons logic and create thousands of extra seats, that vote counts for nothing under either system.

Tactically, it’s the best English managerial performance I can remember, and that goes back to ‘70. Sir Alf was pretty poor in that World Cup with his substitutions during the Germany game, but Southgate has got his absolutely spot on. The attacking talent at his disposal is quite unbelievable, Foden & Grealish didn’t even kick a ball last night, yet we absolutely murdered them. The key to unleashing this talent is the way he’s set us up defensively and protected our weakest area. Superb management.

I quoted 6 posts stating that the other night, however the mods deleted them. Look back through the thread, there’s plenty.

He’s not interested in England because JWP wasn’t picked, lol What was it he wrote, he’s stopped watching England. 😂😂😂

Well that’s 1-1 then, because you made a right tit of yourself on the Euro one.

you claimed under PR “every” vote will count. Whereas under FPTP they don’t. If 280 people vote for an independent in Poole, how do their votes count under PR? What is the difference between that & them not getting the representative they want under FPTP? Please explain, or maybe admit you were writing pony when you wrote that “every” vote counts under PR.

Absolutely. Some people should be embarrassed by some of their earlier posts on this thread. For some reason the mods delete them when these posts are quoted, but they know who they are.

I’ve always been too pessimistic

Some people were right about England and some of you were wrong. Fry was one in the right camp, so now the insults start. It’s there for all to see

Really? 😂

Are you for real. The thread is full of people slagging Southgate, Kane, Sterling, Rice, Phillips off. Full of people “supporting” Scotland or having no interest in England. Luckily for them (and you) the mods keep deleting posts that quote them.

That’s why Southgate left him on. That’s good management Some of the posts on here about Southgate & Kane need to be filed as classic gold.

That wasn’t what you said. Your exact words were “everyone’s vote should mean something”. Please explain how a vote for a losing candidate means something under PR, but not under FPTP

3-1 piece of piss

It was Roy Keane who called Arsenal a team of Son in laws. Blokes you’d like your daughter to marry, but wouldn’t want next to you in the trenches. Remind you of anyone?

I’ll be giving it large down the boozer tonight. Telling my cronies how we’re as big as Liverpool, Utd, Chelsea. When they laugh at me I’ll just give it the old , “how do historical records have any bearing on the 2021/22 season”. That’ll shut them up,

What on earth are you on about. Unless you have one representative per voter there will always be voters whose vote doesn’t translate into their candidate winning whatever system you use. Every vote means something, not just the ones that the winning candidate gets. If I’m the only bloke voting for Fred dustbin lid Jones, how does my vote mean something under PR and not under FPTP

This is rubbish. I don’t dislike him, I just don’t rate him particularly highly as a footballer . Why we have to keep getting this playground “you don’t like him” pony is beyond me. It’s nothing to do with him ducking out of the way of a shot, I didn’t rate him before that. It was just an example of where your biblical obsession with statistics doesn’t show the true picture. Last time I looked there wasn’t a statistic of which midfielders duck. Probably because it shouldn’t happen. As for this manly footballer pony, I don’t expect you to trawl through my posts as that’ll bore you to death, but you’ll find fulsome praise for players like Tadic and Le Tiss, Lallana. Hardly tough tackling “manly” figures.

Well in that case you’ve got absolutely no chance of forming a Government.

Neither can I. The only hope we’ve got is they punch each other out and final is one game too many.

But what about the stats?

Nope. Had you meant that, you’d have written “we will fall apart without him”.

Let’s hope Italy & Spain have a long gruelling, end to end, injury ravaged semi final.

Armstrong won’t make the 11, dear god.

That’s all well and good. Please give us some examples of when it’s all fallen apart without him. That was what you claim.
