Oh yeah..... I remember that at The Dell! Also protests in the car park.

Who's better?

Under rated player. Other than Morgan and Vic, probably the best central midfielder we've had since the early 90s.

This isn't about not having encyclopedic knowledge of numbers, or a slip of the tongue, it's about completely mis-describing or misunderstanding what's he's talking about.

Bertrand?

He's filmed giving a speech where he clearly doesn't understand what he's talking about. That's utterly useless.

I'm hearing this too. Expect to hear the words "Nigel Adkins" as well.

Never mind the comments. Corbyn is utterly useless

It's good.

Haha. Good move.

Redknapp? Shame on your offspring unless they called him a ****.

No, although using the services of a business provider which are specifically marketed as a way to avoid care fees is probably not the most subtle approach!

I imagine a lot of people will simply sign their house over to their kids in advance. You can already do this to avoid IHT as long as you don't die within seven years. Of course, there are risks with that approach (if you fall out with your kids they can kick you out, for example - or if your kid gets divorced then their ex-spouse would usually be entitled to some of the wealth in that kid's share). The people who end up in a tricky situation will be ones who have a very rapid deterioration in health and don't have much of a support network to help them.

I want to see a back two of Caceres and Yoshida. In front of that, Romeu, Bertrand and Stephens. Then a front five of Austin, Rodriguez, Long, Gabbiadini and Seager and GET IT IN THE ****ING BOX.

Bit dramatic, Nev. What about pies? Will there be "No Pies" [sic]?

You could say the same about Koeman last year.

Two very good posts.

It's a funny one. Imagine if the policy already existed and the Tories said they were going to remove consideration of property equity from the calculation. Left Labour types would be going mad, saying it was a gift to rich property owners, an outrage, a favour for the Shires etc. When the Tories introduce it, it's a "Dementia Tax" (possibly one of the most callous, uncaring and insensitive pieces of spin I can think of). This whole issue touches on the previous discussion about the NHS and the difficulty of funding ever older populations through their health and social care needs. Fundamentally, I think it's a bit perverse to means test based only on liquid cash and not broader wealth. Presumably, though, there are ways round this involving intra-familial transfers of property....

Very odd attitude for an "historian".

I was tempted to wait until after the deadline then move seats, because a lot of the people near me are dinlows. Then I came on here and..... well, better the devil you know.

So they lied?

Mike Dean didn't know. He looked at the linesman. The linesman presumably wasn't paying attention or had line of sight blocked so didn't know. So Dean did what any good narcissist would do and gave the penalty.

It would be great if he could put on a bit more muscle and play alongside Romeu in the deeper role because technically his game is well suited to that position. Davis, Redmond, Tadic, Boufal and Sims (subject to departures / signings) could then compete for the advanced spots.

Isn't he going to be a bit out of his depth in League One anyway? With their financial predicament they should be taking the compensation!

Agreed. "Too many crabs... bloody sideways.... blah, blah, blah". Takes one of them off and puts a direct runner on.... booooo!
