So basically you’re agreeing with me. Because the overwhelming majority of members were leavers, his principles got diluted. Tony Benn would have adhered to the primacy of party members, without compromising his principle. He’d have campaigned to leave whilst accepting the majority wanted to remain. Contrast him, with Ken Clarke. A man who basically wouldn’t do a Corbyn and therefore didn’t become party leader. That’s what I call principled. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Your criteria only works if caps are of the same value throughout the years. Nowadays they throw them round like confetti. Lambert & Lallana wouldn’t have got anywhere near a cap when I started watching the game. Allan Clarke got 19 caps, Ray Kennedy 17, Howard Kendall 0, Tony Currie 17, Jimmy Case 0, Stan Bowles 5, Rodney Marsh 9, Peter Osgood 4, John Hollins 1, Alan Hudson 2, I could go on and on. Lallana wouldn’t even get in our best side this century, let alone of all time. Fonte is nowhere near our best centre half despite winning 28 caps and the euros. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I don’t think so. My nippers ticket defaulted from adult to 18-21 when added to my basket. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

He abandoned one of his major political principles , because he wanted to keep his new members onside. The members are who protect him from the PLP ousting him. He voted leave in the original referendum, voted against Maastricht & Lisbon. He was from the old left that opposed the EU from day one, standing alongside Galloway & his political hero Tony Benn. Look how he campaigned during the Cameron referendum, then contrast it to his campaigning during GE. Tories like Major & Cameron pretended to be Euro sceptical to gain the endorsement of the party and stay in favour with the members, Corbyn has done exactly the same. It maybe politically expedient , but it’s not principled. There is absolutely no doubt had Corbyn been a back bencher he’d have campaigned for leave. Ken Clarke could easily have done the same and abandoned his principle. He could have toned down his EU enthusiasm to win the Tory leadership, but he refused. That’s principled, what Corbyn did, isn’t. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Dodd, Claus, Lallana, Fonte, Lambert FFS, who picked this side. Half the side should be nowhere near an ultimate 11. **** me I could name 10 centre halves better than that pairing. Adkins and Lawrie, what a ****ing joke. Ted & Lawrie head and shoulders above the rest. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Lol, principled ? Opposed the EU at every opportunity, until a miraculous about turn which just happened to coincide with his elevation to the party leadership. Intelligent? Joins FB groups without realising he’d joined, defended a picture without looking properly at it, met a Czech “diplomat “ without realising he was a spy. ****ged Diane Abbott. Yeah, really intelligent. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

This doesn’t make sense. Just because you’re not homophobic doesn’t mean you can’t be sexist, or hate Muslims. Would you say Donald Trump can’t be racist because of his historic stance towards Jews & Israel? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The issue is the leader being anti Semitic or appearing to tolerate it. If May had called some racists friends, had she joined anti black Facebook pages, if she had friends that were racist, had she defended a racist picture, had she been called the racists poster girl, by John Major or Nigel Lawson. What if her own mps marched in a protest against racism in the Tory party. What if May set up an enquiry into racism in the Tory party, then ennobled the head of that enquiry straight after the party was exonerated , before then admitting that there were pockets of racism in the party. If May did all that, would you accept as a defence of her, that all parties had racists in them. I doubt you would. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Margaret Hodge, no doubt a red Tory, calls Corbyn “The poster boy for anti semites”. Implies that the Chakrabarti report was a whitewash, still she won’t care it got her a tittle. What’s looking the other way, compared to being called Baroness Chakrabarti. That’s going to impress her sons mates at his posh private school. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hard one. Having been lucky enough to see both personally I'd put it like this. Le Tiss had better performances ( in that, if you picked the top 20 individual performances you'd seen in a Saints shirt, he'd have more in that top 20 than Mick) but Mick had more better performances, if that makes sense. I guess it's like comparing the Beatles to The Stones. The Stones had a dozen fantastic songs, whereas the Beatles had a body of work that overall was far better. Mick's underrated in football folklore if you ask me, he was a quality player. But Le Tiss gave me the greatest wow moments I've ever seen ( apart from 1/5/76) and will ever see. To this day I still can't believe that last day at the Dell, talk about writing your own headlines. I can't separate them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great topic. Here's my list of each sides best player since I've been watching football . Only really struggled with Burnley and picking one for Saints. Arsenal = Berkamp Bournemouth = Ted Mcdougal Brighton = Mark Lawrenson Burnley = Robbie Blake Chelsea = John Terry Crystal Palace = Ian Wright Everton = Bally Huddersfield = Frank Worthington Leicester City = Gary Lineker Liverpool = Kenny D Manchester City = Colin Bell Manchester United = Bestie Newcastle United = Super Mac Southampton = Mick C or Le Tiss Stoke = Gordon Banks Swansea = Gylfi Sigurdsson Tottenham = Glen Hoddle Watford = John Barnes West Brom = Bryan Robson West Ham = Bobby Moore Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Of course, the Jewish community are in cohorts with the Tories. Jewish Labour MP saying on news night that Corbyn won’t recognise anti semitism on the left. Since he became leader anti Semites in the party feel safe and anti semites are joining the party because they feel it represents their views. I suppose she’s a red Tory Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Corbyn wasn't always a defender of free speech when it came to public art. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4700482.stm Seems that he marched to stop Mo being drawn, but was in favour of anti Semitic art ( until he got found out), on the basis of free speech. His defence always seems to be "I'm a ****ing idiot", didn't realise the FB group he joined was anti Semitic, didn't know his friend who set up the group was, didn't notice this picture. Who is he,?Chauncey Corbyn, a hapless gardener tending McDonnell's roses who gets mistaken for a political genius. He sacks Owen Smith for calling for a second referendum, but leaves his ex squeeze Abbott in post ( despite calling for same thing). He's a clueless buffoon Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had a few beverages with the unit manager of a very large B&Q last night and this came up in discussion about wages. According to him they have 3 levels of staff. Management, experts & ordinary staff. Management negotiate their own salary with him but within certain bandings , experts are ex plumbers etc and they’re paid according to qualifications & again it’s open to negotiation. Ordinary staff are paid exactly the same hourly rate, regardless of whether you’re warehouse or check outs. He reckons the issue isn’t with in store warehouse staff, but with their distribution warehouses. Staff there are predominantly male and paid more than the instore staff. This is because historically these staff are unionised, many tupied over when they expanded and took over the distribution centres from other retailers and there’d be mayhem in numerous stores if these warehouses didn’t have an engaged workforce. They’re also more skilled, driving fork lifts and the like. Interestingly he reckons his female managers are better leaders, better “man managers”, but hopeless at the brinksmanship required when negotiating salaries. My Mrs asked why he didn’t reward the better managers, he just laughed and basically said, why should he when he didn’t need to & it’s up to them to push for more money. I know it’s just a snap shot, but it does show that there’s various issue that cause a pay gap, but not specifically because of your gender. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Penalty taking coach, wtf is that. Shall we have a throw in coach, or a goal kick coach. Is there another club in the country with a penalty taking coach? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

No Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It’s very simple for me. Do these retailers pay men who work on the tills (and they do, I was served by a bloke in Tesco today) more then they pay women on the till. Do they pay women working in the warehouse less then men that work in the warehouse. I’m pretty sure the answer in both cases is no. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’d be more concerned if this was midweek before the Boscombe game. Could the Swansea game be that week? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

What because Jenkins thinks so, must be true then. An opinion piece by a rabid remainer thats all it is. There is absolutely zero chance of any government of this country accepting free movement. Having twice voted to stay out of the EU, there’s a lot to admire about the Norwegians, but any deal that continues with free movement is dead in the water. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I thought I'm going nuts. I've seen 3 or 4 posts asking for seating plan, and it's there. Perhaps they left it off the original announcement and added it later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Unless I'm missing something, there's a seating plan at the bottom of the announcement, after the ticket dates and before the coach travel details. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
