I disagree. Whilst there are some bad eggs in every party, this lot have a militant tendency to silence opposition and the prospect of McDonnell in power is hideous. As to your lazy Tory bashing, complete piffle. The boundary changes are proposed by an independent commission and it was recognised by Parliament in 2011 that the constituencies need a rethink.

Yeah, that too. It's all hypothetical as he's got no chance of winning an election. If he did, I would be seriously worried though.

They will make whatever institutional changes they can to entrench their position. They hold extreme views and cannot tolerate debate / exchange of ideas. They look to shut down opponents. Basically, they are extreme dogmatists. I think, to some extent, Corbyn is a bit of a patsy but that's irrelevant.

Think what you like of the Tories, the Blairites etc. but a Corbyn / McDonnell axis in power would be a huge and very dangerous blow to the democratic operation of this country.

I had problems with the BBC highlights. The commentary had some sort of interference so that the voice was twisted up in pitch and took on a sort of shrill, childlike quality that, frankly, was out of keeping with the football and soured the overall quality quite dramatically.

Didn't he post a photo with him wearing a knee brace the other day? Bad news!

We haven't kept a league clean sheet since McCarthy's first match.

A bigger problem than the attack. We've been in the lead loads of times and given it away. The handling of the van Dijk situation and failure to replace him has been shocking. Feel a bit for Pellegrino in this respect.

As long as we cannot defend aerially we will struggle.

You need a tinker with Tarmac.

No, why buy a striker at all if there is a dastardly plan to sell everything and pocket the money?

Why do we need to get relegated to further this genius plan?

Could have done with some of these this season to cheer us up.

Too early to say.

Dodd is better than Cedric, to be fair.

And Gibraltar and Malta.

And besides Monaco.

Would you renew if we were owned by a Gaydamak-type?

This, massively. Inexplicable that Yoshida has been dropped really as he's no worse than the people being picked ahead of him (arguably better) and he's one of the few with a bit of mettle about him.

I'd go for the second from the right myself, but whatever floats your boat.

Edit: Davis has never struck me as a helmet so he is excepted from that.

I think there is an attitude problem in this bunch. How many of them are likeable or you feel an affinity for? Romeu, Yoshida, Lemina perhaps. Maybe McCarthy. The rest seem like a bunch of helmets.

Good post.

It's not much scarier than a Stephens - Hoedt partnership.
