  1. 8th & a cup final for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Who said we wouldn't sack him? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Amazing isn't it. Not surprised though, remember when we signed Ryan Bertrand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Did a good job in the circumstances. I'll reserve judgement on whether it's the right move or not when I see the replacement. He's got a tough gig when 8th & a cup final isn't good enough. I guess we'll get to see just how easy those achievements are this coming season. Hope this doesn't mean that Jack Stephens progress stalls because he's the shining light of the past 3 months. I guess the players who wanted out because of Puel will all be staying now!!!!!!!!!! The club have shown a lack of class in dragging this out, some of our supporters have shown a lack of class & some of the players (and their family) have shown a lack of class. Unlike Claude whose been classy throughout. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. According to Phillip Collins this was their strategy in the midlands & NE.Tell people on the door step that they can vote for labour because Corbyn can't win. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. When are the TV games announced Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. There are predictions & then there are facts. They are two different things. It is a fact that Mrs Thatcher pushed for the single market & one reason she wanted it was to stop state aid.State aid,that was possible before,when the EEC was basically a customs union.

  8. God there's some pony on here, Labour did so well because they voted for A50, had they not done so, they'd have been smashed. If the vote was held today, the outcome would be no different. Here's a sobering thought for the deluded few on here. Corbyn has shown he can mobilise the youth & the left. He's proved he's a campaigning MP & bloody good at it, rallies & speeches he can attract massive crowds. He hasn't just learnt that, he's always had it. Had he done so during the referendum vote, remain would have won. The reason he didn't, wasn't because of incompetence but because he's a leaver. The customs union is basically the EEC before Thatcher pushed for a single market. The reason Thatcher was so keen on the single market & didn't stop at the CU was because of what she called"internal tariffs". The internal tariffs, were basically state aid. It really makes me laugh when my 16 year old claims she supports Steptoe & co because they'll ensure a soft Brexit, soft Brexit being membership of the SM. Steptoe & his head bangers nationalisation & state aid policies are stopped by membership of the SM. I can understand an argument that Corbyn doing well could mean staying on the CU, but anybody who thinks SM membership is compatible with Corbyns policies is missing the point. The SM was devised to stop policies Corbyn wants to implement . You can not support state aid, re-nationalisation & membership of the SM, they are diametrically opposed to each other. It's also pretty funny seeing lefties obsessed with the SM. Something that probably wouldn't exist if it was t for Mrs Thatcher Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. The only way you turn young or youngish people onto capitalism isn't by bribing them or making yourself trendy because the left will always beat you on those . The way to do it is by giving them a stake in capitalism. Making them house owners & giving them promotion opportunities. If the Tories can't get the under 40's on the property ladder & they allow them to stagnant with no pay rises or promotions , the Tories are finished long term. Tories are made up of people that capitalism works for . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Really interesting comments from pinko Philip Collins on Red Box podcast today. Says that now is the time for the moderates to split from the Labour Party, but in a friendly & mutually beneficial way. Say they will work together in government or opposition but be 2 separate but linked party. His reasoning was that Corbyn can't and probably doesn't want to, move to the centre as he'll lose the idealistic newbies that he's done so well with. But if he moves left or even stays where he is , labour will lose the marginals they've just clung onto. Now before people scream that he kept the marginals anyway, Collins claims the straggly in those seats was, you can vote for me because Corbyn won't get in, and I can limit Tory power & majority. They can't claim that next time & the vote for me, you can't get Corbyn , won't work. What May work, is vote for my " new labour ' party & in coalition with Corbyns 'left Labour Party" we can water down his unpalatable policies. I found it an incredibly interesting theory, and although doubtful it'll happen , I wonder what other think Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  12. Lefties, gotta luv em. Just watching little Owen Jones on Dateline London. Talking about his disgust over dealing with the DUP. According to him decent people should have nothing to do with a party that is supported by terrorists. Ordinary people should be horrified. In case you don't know who this moralistic, decent upstanding bloke is, here's a picture of him addressing a summer school last June Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Instead of propping up a Labour Government. http://www.irishnews.com/news/2015/09/02/news/hillary-clinton-emails-labour-sought-dup-election-pact-248668/ Fair play to Caroline Flint , not only is she pretty fit, but she's straight talking. https://m.facebook.com/permalink.php?id=161524687249992&story_fbid=1307339502668499 No surprise who the biggest way anchor over this, Mr dodgy dossier himself. Had a rant on tv yesterday , surprise surprise he sat in meetings trying to cobble together deal with DUP. Ian Paisley Jnr has even claimed that Ed Milliband tried to wow the party in 2015. Although that's probably a smear from a Tory paper. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/politics/2015/apr/27/dup-the-party-with-no-natural-bedfellows Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. And so it begins. A kinder gentler type of politics, provided you don't critique Jezza. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p055mbhy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I knew a chick who ****ged the old Watford striker George Reilly. For those of you who don't remember him, he was a fat Peter Crouch. Mind you she was a 9 pinter Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. And me, but I'm glad it's DD doing the groundwork rather than Labour. Gove going to DEFRA is also a good sign. One thing for sure is we're a lot further away from the dead hand of The EU than we were 2 years ago. The Tories should do their deal, then call a GE. Take it or leave on WTO rules. There are 2 linked, but separate issues here. Terms of leaving the EU & then future arrangement. You can have the first without the second. If the people reject the Tory future arrangement & want labour to go and negotiate one, that's democracy at its finest. Exactly why I voted Leave in the first place.

  17. McDonnell on Peston today discussing the single market. "I don’t think staying in is feasible. Let’s be clear, we’re respecting the decision of the referendum. We are democrats. I think people will interpret membership of the single market as not respecting that referendum". He also added that he didn't thing staying in would even be on the table . Seems pretty straight forward to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. It could have been written by Ed Milliband. However, what will the next one look like. Ken Livingstone was quoted by Andrew Neil saying "the electorate had a taste of Socialism and they liked it. We need to give them more socialism,if we're going to make the final push". If Corbyn, Milne, McDonnell, Abbott, Len & the rest of the head bangers think the same,they're ****ed.
  19. Does this apply to the manager? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  21. Again correct. Their weakness will actually keep them together. Frasier Nelson claimed he was speaking to the "usual suspects" on the back benches and they genuinely think that Corbyn in number 10 will do irreparable damage to the country that will take years to repair. He claimed had Yvette Cooper or Andy Burnham been labour leader they'd move against May & if that leads to a moderate labour government so be it. He claims the strategy is to dig in and hope that the Blairittes do the job of undermining Corbyn for them. Whether it's true or not I don't know, but Nelsons going to be closer to the Tory back benches than any of us on here. A couple of things work in their favour. The DUP pretty much vote with the Tories on most stuff anyway. And the DUP's bargaining position isn't as strong as people make out. They absolutely do not want a Corbyn administration, so when push comes to shove, won't vote down a Tory government, they're basically Orange Tories anyway. And the boundary changes due in 2018. Reducing the numbers of seats to 600 probably won't get through, but equalising constituencies probably will as you can't fight the 2022 election on 12 year old boundaries. These favour the Tories , so sticking around until after their in place is an attraction. 3 years time Corbyn could face having to make 80 gains to win an overall majority.

  23. Have you noticed the birds who sell their story, or their "friends" sell their story are all conned & take some persuading to get into bed. The players all seem to have to spend ages wowing them & promising they've ditched their wives before these poor innocent flowers will "make love" to them . None of them are "that sort of girl" either. Where have all the slappers gone, it must be terrible being famous and trying to pull these sensible types. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
