But he's done nothing wrong...was the official line, right up until yesterday. And if Rishi was alarmed by Zahawi's tax affairs he's gonna freak if someone tells him about the PPE contracts.

I don't think the voters need to know where he managed to borrow £30m unsecured from, or how much tax he tried to dodge. Corruption and fraud is a very personal thing, it's just a matter for him and his very warm horses. I'm sure the lender asked nothing in return so the voters don't need detail, the independent investigation by the party donor they have selected should clear it all up.

If Joe Jordan was on the pitch Pope would still be recovering from their earlier collision, probably in A and E.

And Joelinton is in there for his clinical finishing?.... It looks a little like that was put together by a Man Utd fan.

Other than petrifying all those around him with his cavalier attitude to positioning and team structure, and his obsession with floating dozens of beautifully-hit long passes directly to opposition players, what does Lyanco actually bring to the table? His very occasional killer pass in the other half is nice, making him dangerous in both boxes, but you have to think that contributing towards the odd clean sheet now and again might be more useful.

That's clearly the plan, get out of the cup as quick as possible so we can enjoy the league campaign. We'll probably try to make it less obvious on Saturday, but we need to get rid of all distractions. How did your plane protest go? Have you cut up your season ticket yet and done a thumbs-down frowning-face picture for The News?

Anyone know what Lyanco's passing stats were? He does realise that we are the ones in red and white?

Lyanco plays as if he has a massive mistake in him, but in reality he manages to give away vital goals through minor errors. You don't like to pick on individuals when the team is poor but he's been at the crime scene of nearly every goal in the Jones era. Less fist-pumping, more disciplined defending required.

There's no polite way of putting it - the multiple abortions he had to finance plus the other paternity payments, the lavish lifestyle and the divorce all caught up with him in 2020. Top bloke though, got all the big decisions right, played a blinder etc.

It's quite clear now why the BBC has been the PR firm for government instead of asking the difficult Brexit questions - the BBC chairman was personal friends with the PM and arranging loans for him when the personal debts started to stack up. Both parties forgot to mention this during the selection process.

People voted for Johnson as one of his many promises to win their support was 40 new hospitals and 50,000 new nurses. With all that pretty much sorted now these little backlog hiccups will reduce very quickly.

Neutrals could observe that the rail companies are being paid by the government not to negotiate. If you demonise rail unions you will get public sympathy, as was the case all those years ago with those pesky miners. But take on nurses and you're digging your own political grave. It's a battle the government will definitely lose.

I see your tax-dodger and I raise you a multi-millionaire cabinet minister who tells teachers there's no money around while wearing a £10k Rolex - perhaps a present from her husband after his second job was fortunate enough to win a £24m government contract. It has to stop.

Ouch, that's not the table they hoped for. Never mind, I'm sure it's been funny watching us struggle.

That is the mother of all HUGE wins. Well done to Nathan Jones and all the players for turning a total shitshow into something that looks a lot like hope.

I'm pretty sure they'd have a friend who could mow the garden for £30m. Badly.

Barbara Cartland was always hot. Something to do with faulty radiators I believe.

At five-a-side when players take shortcuts across the keeper's D then say it's okay because they didn't touch the ball inside it.

When we sold Lovren to Liverpool he played like we hadn't given them the user manual. Is this the guy who can unlock the full talent of our Man City crop, and other youngsters? Though there will be potential for some lively debates between him and Jones, conversations that need to be had....

Scores the late winner in the cup final against Boca and celebrates in front of their fans causing a mass brawl and red card fest... He sounds alright to me. 😎👍

I had a crazy dream last night, Lyanco was bossing Zaha, Armstrong scored, two goalkeeping howlers - but at the other end....it was the craziest shit. The perils of a late night cheeseboard.

Our name is clearly on the cup! Somewhere around the back, down there on the left.

Nah, the light show was shit - it just became the highlight of the evening 90 minutes later.

Must win.

How would force-feeding all adults advanced or pure and applied maths at the age of 18 be progress, other than as a headline-grabber to distract from all the other shit? The priority should be improving basic maths, learned in those seven years between the ages of five and ten.
