Got to be tower hamlets, they've had issues there before.

This...every day if the week. Watch now as the players perform the same trick and the bed wetters on here go even more mental.

Perhaps had Nigel wanted to blow up British troops rather than control our border, the metropolitan elite wouldnt have smeared him quite so much.

Bennett was on Daily Politics constantly the past few months, she even bragged that they would treble their meps. Wiggy offered her a bet, but having lost £10 to him in last years local elections (when she said they would beat ukip..lol) she declined. All this guff from the greens about being ignored is moonshine. They came 4th as opposed to ukips first because ukip are more in tune to what the country wants.

If you sign ambitious young managers who subsequently do well this is always going to happen. The trick is putting the structures in place to have seamless transitions when they leave. Swansea have done so ( although the jury will be out on monk), and Wigan did for a bit . From Jewell to Bruce to RM, although coyle was a screw up. I just hope the supporters and board keep their heads and give the new bloke a fair crack of the whip. Its gonna be harder than last season, particularly if we lose a few. As for MP. I don't see what the board can do. His out was Nicola going and I suppose we should be grateful he saw out the season. His stocks never been higher and as I said, next season will be tough. Look at laudrap , one season wins a cup and its "Brendon who", the next season its bye bye. I just hope our fan base don't make fools of themselves crying and moaning on twitter and booing him. I'll treat him the way he treated us, with indifference. This is going to be a tricky time for the board and no doubt this forum will be doom and gloom. Whether Nicola and MP were still here or not, Shaw,Adam and others will have attracted offers and will have been tempted. MP leaving just gives players a way out, their agents will see to that. Personally I don't begrudge Adam or even MS a move and Shaw is so good a move is inevitable. The board need to ensure the lovren's and Victor's, jrod and chambers stay to ensure a degree of normality. Provided the core of the side stick together , the transfer money in is invested OK and the board make a decent appointment, there's no reason we can finish in the top 10 again. We just need to accept that this is the modern game, managers stay 18 months/2 years than are sacked or move to bigger clubs.

Nigel's job now is to put some flesh on the bones of other policies and sell them to the public. He's managed to shows clearly that you can't have control of immigration whilst being in the EUSSR , he now needs to ensure the country are made aware of other constraints membership brings as well as highlighting the democratic deficit at the heart of this failed experiment. Domestically he needed to shows that policies such as grammar schools and lower tax for all, as well as slashing foreign aid can improve the life of the working man. There is a place for a right of centre working mans party , which the Tories can never be.

Problem is , he wouldn't stand a chance. From day one some of our fanbase would bang on about "cheap option" and "shows our lack of ambition" ECT ECT . Would give the players that want to go a get out line. Personally, I think he deserves a go at the big league. Its not just what he's done at Boscombe the past couple of years , but his first spell. They were nailed on heading for the conference and he delivered promotion a year later. Im not sure we're the right job for him, its going to be a tough ask to follow on from last year,especially if players move on. Pros; Plays good stuff, is a bright young manager. Could be around a long time and build something. Cons; Not a big name, dont know what happened at Burnley, and he's a skate.

Dear o dear, the London metropolitan elite are so busy telling us plebs what to think and who to vote for, they've forgotten to get the basics right when actually counting the vote. #bananarepublic

"The party of in" are doing well. Good move from Clegg to try and take on Nigel. Mind you I dont know whose happier they've managed 1 seat, Lib/dumbs or the lab/con as it means the most dishonest man in politics will cling on to his ministerial car. Old Clegg is worth a few votes for them. Looks like a great result for Nigel, although im sure the sophisticated and educated elite posters will be on tomorrow putting a different spin on it.

What's the turn out, because I've been here 18 odd years and the polling station was the busiest I've seen it.

I saw that, she actually said "its outside the M25". I thought the Ukip guy ripped her apart. Wiggy Neil has a soft spot for her so went easy, it was a car crash. Did you hear her explanation for the result in Rotherham, its because labour candidates dont need to talk to people or knock on doors to get votes , unlike london. Talk about taking votes for granted, look where that got them in Scotland. Ukip winning in Millibands Doncaster turf and in Newark. Lol the London elite are going to be in full scale panic tonight.

On any questions Friday , Justine greening was parrotting that line, dimble's bro ( for once) laid into her. "So you're going to listen, learn the lessons and then keep the same policies". Just about sums the lib/lab/con up.

That ridiculous women, or is it a bloke , who tried to stich Nigel up has been thrown out by her voters.

I read somewhere, I think it was Gabriele Marcotti , that said Cortese was scouting players when he came across MP and was impressed.

You're assuming he'll walk out when told "because you've dicked us about, we're holding you to your existing deal" . If that's the case then it all depends who you get in.Players seemed to like Nigel, but got over it pretty quick. They would probably use it as an excuse to push to go, but if you got a decent replacement in quick they'll son forgot Poch. Some people are talking as if he's some sort of messiah to the players. Yes, they appear to like playing for him and he's improved some of them, but there are plenty of other managers in that boat. Our players appear to be pretty professional, they'll get over it.

The nearest comparison would be the top 3 into the champions league and then the last place decided with a play off between 4,5,6,7.

At the risk of upsetting the anti "it is clear" brigade one thing is clear to me. He's not fannying around undecided whether to leave. Torn between loyalty to the club that gave him his break , and the ambition of joining a bigger club. If he doesn't sign for spurs, its not because he didn't want to leave. Either they didn't want him, or he feels that the particular job isn't right at present. He's playing us, waiting for a better offer and if one doesn't come it'll be spun as Poch snubs Spurs. This won't be popular on here ,but if I was in ralphs shoes I know what I'd do. When he calls and says "Ducky, I've rejected levy and want to sign that contract", id say "**** off ,we'll talk about it next season when the one you've got runs out". We are starting to look like a desperado whose wife is having an affair, we're waiting at home desperately hoping she will come back to us , where all will be forgiven. We should **** him off and go on the pull, cause he'll be putting it about again soon enough.

Don't talk nonsense man. From a standing start 90+ gains is a really good performance from a 4th party. What people are missing in some cases deliberately , is the long term implications. Ukip does not have to win seats to change the political weather, they just have to ensure that the lib/lab/con can lose them. They've already forced call me Dave to offer a referendum , something he desperately didn't want to do. Nigel is a fantastic political operator, who has worked out that ukip can not be a UK tea party, so is reaching out to white working class labour voters. Results in Sunderland and Rotherham are showing that this strategy could work. They are hoping to become the main opposition in areas that labour take for granted, remember labour thought they'd put the SNP in its box and took areas of Scotland for granted. If they can pressure labour into matching the referendum pledge that will be great. The other issue looming is the Scottish referendum. If the ballot paper had two choices; independent Scotland in the EU or UK out of the EU , I reckon salmond would win. Therefore, a great ukip result Sunday will ensure the SNP campaign on vote yes to stay in the EU. If Scotland goes, then it is game on......

In local council elections you vote on the parties local government policies and also how the incumbent councillors have performed. In the EU elections, you vote on parties European policies and how their meps have done. In a general election, you vote on the MPs performance and also the parties national manifesto. To take one set of results and project the results for another election is comparing apples to pears, particularly when parts of the nation didn't even vote.

What are you suggesting that if you agree with one analysis in the media you have to follow them blindly and agree with everything? Personally, I don't think you can judge a national share of the vote unless the whole nation votes. By your measure Alex salmond will be extremely worried as their national share of the vote hit rock bottom. Lol

This, every time. They kicked us off the park first leg. They robbed us every bit as much as rangers robbed them today. Redknapp is one bloke, there were hundreds of twts that night.

I hope the derby twts who danced in front of us in the pouring rain were there today.

How on earth can you judge the national share of the vote when there are areas of the country that didn't vote? The EU elections are nationwide , so we'll see what the national share of the vote is on Sunday.
