They’re all over the place. Yesterday John Mac and Red Len said remain shouldn’t be on the ballot, today Sir Kier said “nobody is ruling out Remain as an option on the ballot”. Laughably there was some Remain chump on the BBC suggesting we have a Leave or Remain vote, and if it’s Leave , a further vote on deal or no deal. There was me thinking we’d had the first part of that already. Abbott then did one of her “special” interviews on Newsnight to clarify. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

JRM probably wouldn’t even stand, he’d endorse another candidate for a half decent job. Boris would walk it, if he gets in the ballot, which is extremely doubtful. The point I was making was in response to the claim that Boris is too right wing . Firstly, nobody is too right wing for the membership and secondly he’s not right wing at all, he’s historically a pinko liberal Tory. Just because he’s supported Brexit people label him right wing. Him & Gove are nearer Soubry & Clarke on everything bar Brexit. Those 2 are certainly nearer politically to the pinkos than they are to the JRM, IDS & Redwood part of the party.

Maybe for the faux Tory pinko MP’s, but both would absolutely walk it with the membership. If one of those got to the final 2 it would be a landslide in their favour. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Jezza gave up his “principled approach” to Europe when he became leader. Had he not been so he’d have supported Leave, as he has done all his political life. It’s the one issue that was a threat to his leadership as most of the membership are Euro nutters, hell bent on stopping us leaving. I doubt very much they’d be prepared to allow a Leaver to lead them. Deep down I bet he’d rather we just got out, with May squeezing it through and him voting against. That way he won’t take a political hit and his lifelong ambition of getting out will be fulfilled. Of course they’re all getting a hard on about forcing a GE, but they’ll be fighting it on the Tories terms. If the deal can’t get through the commons because of Labour votes and the Federalist nutters like Soubry, Clarke & Grieve, it’ll be framed as a one issue snap election. The one issue it’ll be fought on is the one issue that labour voters will hold their nose and vote Tory for. As for the soubry type tories, are they really going to vote for Jezza. What’s going to do more damage to the economy ( in their eyes) Jezza or Brexit. And here’s the thing, Jezza won’t fight the election on staying in, but giving us another vote . Tory Remainers who vote tactically may get Corbyn & still get Brexit. May made a horrendous miscalculation when she called a GE and Corbyn will be making one if he thinks now is the best time. In most Tory/ Labour marginals it’ll be far better to be seen as the man who tried to stop us leaving ,than be seen as the man who is standing in the way of us leaving. In one scenario there’s a point to voting Tory, in the other there isn’t, as we’re already out. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

They’re both ****ing dinosaurs, who are totally incapable of giving any sort of modern analysis of the game. Punditry has moved on, they’re 20 years out of date . Although to be honest the whole station is. Ive never met Merrington but he seems a decent bloke. I have shared a few nights out with Willo as I had a mate who was friendly with him during his playing days, he is a top bloke. However, it’s time to pension them both off (and Blackmore as well).

If Sadiq Khan gets another term, those poor downtrodden Londoners may see their property prices fall further. And God help them if Corbyn gets in, he’ll have his eye on all that equity they’ve built up over the years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Chinese owners tell English DoF who tells Welsh Manager who not to pick. Saints web poster in ridiculous comment shock. Bans? Is he banned from playing, banned from being in the starting 11, banned from training? Please explain how the “ban” works. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Swansea had 5 put by them at Liverpool & City last season. At home City put 4 past them, as did Utd. That’s -18, compared to our -6 in the corresponding fixtures. It’s one of the reasons they needed a 10 goal swing on the last day. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

**** me, why don’t people think it through. It’s one of two things 1. The manger doesn’t rate him. 2. Hughes wants to play him, but Les & the hierarchy won’t let him as they want him gone. Hughes doesn’t strike me as the type that’ll let Les dictate who he can and can’t play. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

All true, although they didn’t think we’d have an incompetent Remainer PM, being advised by remain civil servants like Robbins. Remainer May has ****ed this up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s not the PM’s decision anymore, she can’t tag a confidence vote onto legislation like John Major did to get Maastricht through. She can’t just call a GE because it needs a 2/3rd majority in the house. The only other way to is she has to put down a confidence motion in herself, which Parliament has to pass, however my understanding is that in these circumstances Corbyn could try and form a Government. Either way I can’t really see enough Tory MP’s wanting her to lead the party into a GE again, so it’s doubtful she’ll get the numbers for either option. Interestingly Michael Portillio mapped out a scenario where he feels there maybe one, but she’d have to give the Brexiters what they want because of the numbers they have. She negotiates something the majority of the Tory party can get behind, a Canada type deal. She can’t get it through Parliament so calls for a vote in Parliament on a GE, Labour will have to back it, so it’ll get the 2/3rd majority. She’ll then run a short single issue campaign, you want to leave the EU then kick out your Remain MP. It would in effect be a vote on her deal, but on a FPTP system which massively favours Leave. Portillo reckons she’ll get an increased majority and get the DUP off her back, which gives more flexibility around the NI border. Personally don’t think she’s got the balls. She also doesn’t believe in Brexit, so I doubt she’d negotiate the acceptable deal in the first place. So I’m still going for no GE with her in charge. New leader, playing the above Portillio scenario, I can see. Not her though. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The conference is going to be a blood bath for May. ****ing useless trout needs to hang on a bit longer, so I’ll get my vote. Unless this was a completely choreographed row, she’s toast. The line they’ve been using to sell chequers is its deliverable. It’s clearly not. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mitchell is the hipsters man. No better way to show your deep knowledge and understanding of the game than to praise him. At one time the bloke at Leicester was on a par, but since it went tits up at Everton he’s slipped off the radar, I wouldn’t be surprised if the same thing happened to Mitchell.

The Russians couldn’t give a shiny ****e whether the world think they’re guilty or not. If they wanted no evidence left or any sort of credible deniability, they’d have done it differently. The whole point of the exercise was to send a message to their “diplomats” and the West, if you’re a Ruski thinking of switching sides, you may think twice. Some intelligence expert reckons that they did it because they were worried over our side making ground on turning some of their agents. It makes me laugh all this chuckle brothers/dumb and dumber press coverage. Those 2 “decent boys” were perfectly capable of a professional hit, the only thing thing mattered was getting out of the country ASAP, they achieved that perfectly. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

They seemed particularly concerned people might think they were carrying a perfume bottle, not the sort of thing “decent lads” carry. Mind you, the Russian public would probably be ok with them being assassins, but god forbid any hint of homosexuality. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
