I go onto TUI & Thomas cook etc websites, find a hotel then set about arranging it myself. Jan we went to Gran Caneria & I booked a Rui hotel through their app, went onto sky scanner and it gave me an Easy jet outbound flight and a Norwegian inbound. I then went on their websites, booked direct with both carriers, saving a further £36. Atlantica are another hotel chain, mainly in Greece & Cyprus that you can book directly with and save money. Another tip is to book B&B then upgrade when you get there, that’s cheaper as well. We don’t do AI anymore as the kids don’t come with us anymore. Sometimes operators are cheaper or just as cheap. Easy jet holidays are cheap with kids, and if you book early enough BA have some cracking holiday deals, we went to Crete B & B for £700 end of June this year. The bonus with BA is 20kg of hold luggage each is included, saving loads as opposed to Ryan air. I’ve always used a mixture of myself & a holiday company, based on price. You can pretty much arrange the exact same holiday, work out the difference,and is that amount worth piece of mind. Oct we’re going back to Gran Can, and TUI was £80 more, we went with them as I felt that was worth paying. Great hotel we’ve been with our kids were Atlantica Porto Bello beach Kos, although there’s not much for adults in evening. If you’re doing it yourself, Malaga gives you great options, use resort hoopa for transfer and some hotels do transfers. We’ve only done B&B there, but it’s great area for kids.

Id imagine it’s harder with a referendum than a FPTP General election. You don’t even need to poll half the seats as you’ll know the result regardless. My dog could stand as a Tory in my constituency of Poole and win, whereas nobody had a clue how many Leave voters there were. It was only on Independence Day when I went up the polling station that I realised we had a chance. It was mobbed, I’d never seen so many people voting. I talked to the sad sack Lib Dem who for some unknown reason always stands outside at every election , and he was genuinely shocked by the turn out. Predicting turnout must be so much harder in a referendum than a GE. One, people will vote knowing their vote will count, and two you don’t really know how motivated people are to vote and how important the issue is to people who don’t normally care about politics. Living in a safe seat, it was a nice change to have a vote that actually counted. My MP is a pompous arse, a soft pinko halfwit, when I pointed this out to him via an email regarding his support for May’s turd policy (not quite in those terms) his reply was “ I have a 14,000 majority, so I must be doing something right”. I replied that he was inspirational, and that he had inspired me..... inspired me to join Banksies blue wave, join the party to get a proper leader in charge, and then to try and deselect his sorry fat arse.

Pony. He was nailed on for Fulham as he wanted to play for Jokanović again. These were his exact words when signing. I told my agent, my brother, my family that this is the only club I want to join,” Mitrovic said. “We didn’t even talk. Especially after the World Cup a few clubs were interested but my heart wanted to come here and to continue where we stopped. “I didn’t talk to the other clubs. I know that I want to be here. It was not easy but in the end we did it and I’m here. We’re happy now.” “When I came here I fitted into the club like I’d been here lots of years,” Now I have a feeling like I’m home”. The “one that got away”. LOL. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Will always be remembered for the cup final and the goal at Swansea, but ultimately he hasn’t been good enough. I was hoping a change of manager may lead to a change of fortune for him, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be. One thing for sure if he could find anywhere near the form he started with, he’s head and shoulders above the rest. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How did he feel when they were 1-0 up at home to Juve having drawn 2-2 in the away leg, and then bottled it. Probably the same way he felt when they bottled the semi final at home, and came 3rd in a 2 horse race behind Leicester & Arsenal. He’s made them less Spursy, but they’re still bottlers.

Let’s make a comparison with 40 year old Jose with 40 year old Poch then. One won the UEFA cup, followed by The champions league with Porto. That’s why he got the major jobs, that was his “in” to the elite level. The other has won **** all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Apart from the keeper, he played a full side and had home advantage against yesterdays man in the FA cup semi final, and Jose schooled him. What would his fan boys say if he’d won Europa league, League cup & finished second in his first 2 seasons, they’d be elevating him to legend status. The fact these things are considered failure for Jose sums it up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had Jose been at Spurs for 4 seasons he’d have won something by now. At his age Jose had won premier league & 2 champions league, as opposed to 0. Spurs bottled it in the champions league last season, and a home game FA Cup semi final. There’s absolutely no chance Jose would have chucked those chances away. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Jose gave him a tactical lesson in the FA cup semi final. I’m sure most teams would rather have a manager that actually won something. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is that the Leicester that won it 2 seasons ago, or a different one? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Perhaps you need a lesson in perspective. You’re probably trying to be clever & witty, maybe you’re trying to carve a niche as a forum “character”,but personally I find the comparison a bit distasteful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s spot on Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You mean like Claude Puel did? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Why do people always come out with this pony. It’s on a par with this “lost the dressing room” nonsense fans come out with. He knows his keeper, his full backs stay the same, he picks Wes every game and the new fella missed Everton because of illness otherwise he’d play. Redmond plays every game, Ings has started apart from the first game when he’d only been at the club 24 hours, Lemina has played every game. That’s 8 players that are cast iron certainties to play. So let’s look at the other 3 spots. I’ve no doubt Romeu is the one he wanted in there, started first two games but was so woeful at Everton he deserved to be dropped against Leicester . How on earth is deservedly dropping a poor player “ not knowing your best side”. Then there’s Armstrong/ Elyounoussi both of which have suffered injuries, which maybe opened the door for JWP, had Elyounoussi been fit at Everton he’d probably have played. That leaves the CF position, again he’s started with Austin twice, but the guy didn’t deserve to be in the third game. What exactly do you want Hughes to do, pick his starting 11 first week and despite only picking up one point, stick to it. Anyone would think he’d been chopping and changing for the sake of it. Injuries aside he’s dropped Romeu & Austin, and Stephens has come out as we’ve changed formation. FFS I’d say our selections have been pretty consistent and he knows his best 11 as much as any other manager in the league. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Give it a ****ing rest. Do people actually think they’re funny or original when they post the obligatory Henry “jibe” on every single Redmond discussion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It looked to me like the ref indicated 2 with his fingers when he booked him for the first time. In any case what sort of ****ing idiot dives like that when they’re on a booking anyway? That booking could have been the least deserved in the history of football, but it’s still a booking. Diving the way he did gave the ref absolutely no alternative at all. I hope some of the players gave him both barrels afterwards. Pathetic Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What’s that got to do with home games against Burnley & Leicester Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

He wasn’t. The problem Hughes has got is Austin isn’t mobile enough, Gabbi is not really physical enough & Long is Long. Until Hughes finds a formation/style of play to get Gabbi the service he needs or to dominate enough of the ball in the final third so Austin can “goal hang “ , Longs going to be our best bet. Physically he battles and he gives us an out ball, he just hasn’t got any quality. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Agreed, he’s started the season extremely well. Stepped up a gear from last season, there’s no doubt he’s been one of our best players so far. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

We got 0 in the corresponding fixtures last season. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Considering we’ve only won one home game this year I thought our support was pretty good yesterday. Of course the ground emptied when they scored, but that’s par for the course. Nothing will change, footballs changed forever. Grounds aren’t as atmospheric as they used to be, and never will be again. There maybe the odd special occasion when it’s rocking, but week in week out it’s gone. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

This. Until people know the job Les has been forced to do, how on earth can they say he’s doing it badly. Our signings are clearly a downgrade on previous seasons, and surprise surprise so are our results. Are our signings a downgrade because the recruitment department has ****ed up, because Reed is incompetent at negotiating or is it because other clubs are offering more money, that the budget Reed has been given is not attracting players. Who knows? I certainly don’t. I do find it funny that the Reed haters wanted him to employ someone who wasn’t a yes man, he did, yet Reed still gets blamed when we lose.

Cedric again caught out unable to head the ball properly, like last week you have to question whether he’d have been in that position had we played 3 centre halves. Hughes seems to have torn up 3 at the back which solidified us last season, on the basis of one poor half against Burnley. That said we were excellent first half, particularly Redmond. I haven’t read the comments on here as I’m not sure my blood pressure will take it, but no doubt some will refuse to accept he played well. He has definitely upped a level this season. At the end of the day, Cedric, PEH & Vestergaard made major mistakes that cost us. Our home form is woeful, but I’m pretty confident we can turn it round. Last year we were deservedly getting beat, this we’ve played ok and could have won both. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
