How about Micky and OttawaSaint? Aren’t they related?

What like calling remainers Nazis?

In principle, it’s easier to identify problem gambling online with all the user data that is created and collected. Also not sure whether there are (currently) online games that are as addictive as FOBTs.

Can’t wait to see Q2 growth estimates after they were flattered by rampant stockpiling for no deal in Q1.

He’s pretty average tbh, though obviously looks much better playing next to Stephens.

So in other words, wage growth is now barely above inflation - despite lagging inflation for a large part of the postreferendum period and real wage growth being significantly lower today than in the run up to the referendum. Remind me what point is dopey John trying to make again?

The proverbial #mess She is ferociously dim to boot. It doesn’t need repeating but you can’t bemoan the EU’s ‘democratic deficit’ and simultaneously bang on about national sovereignty. If you want directly elected EU leaders, then, by definition, more power needs to go the EU and institutions like the European Parliament. On the other hand, if you believe in national sovereignty, don’t expect leaders to be directly elected because you want member states to remain in control which is precisely what happens when they make these appointments. It’s a blindingly simple choice and trade-off - except it seems to the swivels and coffin-dodgers.

You might bend but don't break pal.

Look at this bunch of radicals (as Lord Pony would call them) https://mobile.twitter.com/brexitparty_uk/status/1145322411283427329 Topped off with day glow sticks and air raid sirens - what a freakshow.

Agree. If Obafemi had stayed fit and shown enough promise, then I would have been happy to let Long go. As things stand, Obafemi is still an unknown quantity (as is Adams to a degree). Long isn’t great but the rest of the side is more cohesive and effective when he’s in the side.

I wonder what fun and games Graham Norton gets up to at your license fee payer's expense

Probably still be a damn sight more insightful than a cretin who thinks Jack Stephens is better than Harry Maguire

They're technically not BBC staff pal.

I can just picture little Les, Ducky, Nolan and Baldrick waving those sticks

The issue of free tv licenses for over 75s is a red herring. It is treated as some kind of inviolable birth right, even though it was only introduced by the last Labour government. Osborne then cynically shifted its funding to the BBC, so it didn’t have to take the flak for cutting it. I have no idea how talentless dregs like Vanessa Feltz get paid what they do, though I know for a fact that other higher profile figures could be paid a lot more working for a competitor. At any rate, salaries are and always will be a sideshow: the savings from hiring no stars at all (~£20m per annum) are a drip in the ocean compared to the cost of funding free TV licences for all over-75s (~£750m per annum) never mind that the poorest who receive Pension Credit will still get their TV license for free. Still I guess it’s juicy red meat for the hard of thinking and easily outraged.

Sky News isn’t bad but nothing comes close to BBC News in global coverage. The BBC has been responsible for some pretty good comedy too.

Or a 2 for 3 the way they’re doing business this summer.

Is much better further forward. His versatility and mobility would be excellent in RH's preferred 4-2-2-2 in the 2 behind the front 2. He's arguably our best player in that kind of role. But as one of our most saleable assets who's struggled to get game time (for whatever reason), it's likely he'll be off.

Received any more death threats Jamie?

Don’t get so touchy, I was paying you a compliment pal.

Your ITK record is f**king s**t but your betting tips are second to none pal.
