While it's brave to vote against having £100m a year in EU funding, have any of those voters considered that their country, their towns, villages and fellow residents might actually be better off WITH the funding? Do they not need it, do they not care, or are they still joining the dots?

With Biden and the US keeping a very close eye on the Good Friday Agreement, the corrupt floppy-combover-haired Eton clown has managed to fuck up Ireland and a US trade deal in one go. Project Sleazy Clusterfuck is in full swing.

That's excellent news and will certainly improve my shopping experience. Those endless hours spent shuffling around faceless shopping centres dragging bags of shiny shit between coffee shops and blocking everyone's path will now be less confusing from a sexual identification point of view.

Am I right in thinking that of the current bunch, only Klopp, Pep and Dyche have now been managing their clubs at the Premier League level for longer than Ralph has?

Great finish, terrible ref, three points, nice. Danny who?

The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.

Spot on, he never seemed to consider that the exposure of his disgraceful behaviour was the likely cause of the distress, he blamed his wife's death on the people investigating his appalling conduct. Her direct relationship with his lobbying companies, plus Aintree, the Jockey Club, Dido Harding and Matt Hancock, has left more questions than answers. It's a personal tragedy tied up in a tale of greed and dishonour, and for any MP to think that the offender was worth protecting, tells us all we need to know about their characters and integrity. -

When the Daily Mail thinks it looks bad you know you need to do another u-turn. So where will that leave all the MPs who supported it yesterday? Hung out to dry and looking like fucking puppets - the same as they were when they defended Cummings, Patel, dodgy deals, the wallpaper, etc etc..... -

Voters rarely admit they got it wrong, it makes them look like mugs, they would rather plod on up Shit Creek pretending they don't want a paddle - or a canoe. But above all other issues, the corruption is now so blatant it's beyond debate. -

Whatever it takes we must make sure that Dido Harding and Serco get paid whatever they need, along with all of those jewellery firms, pubs and sweetshops that won massive PPE contracts. Any tax rise to pay those debts can only be welcomed, those guys were the real heroes who saved us when the chips were down and their enormous profits were well-earned so we mustn't consider a tax on firms or ministers that cashed in on Covid. No, we need working class people to pick up this tab - and they will. -
And the first nomination for the most dull and pointless fucking argument that regularly blurs reality and heads off at tangents to distract from the actual issue, is..... Saints Forum, Kneegate....

He's now realised that his very public stand did nothing for team unity or his own reputation and has today performed a dramatic U-turn of Borisesque proportions. Personally I'd file it under misunderstanding, and there's nothing to see here.

So having come straight up from League One, which is a bastard to get out of first time, even with money, as demonstrated by several clubs recently, anything less than winning the division above at a first attempt was a failure? With all due respect, I think I'll stick with my personal view that back-to-back promotions straight into the Premier League was a fucking good effort - nobody has achieved that since, and it may be a very long time before anyone does it again.

I recall seeing emotion and passion at a football match once, it made me physically sick. It was the last game at The Dell, a place where I went with my father as a nipper. The game was drifting away but a Saints legend popped up and scored an incredible winner. Some people ran on the pitch at the end and seemed excited, even emotional you could say, but that was silly, because emotion is a weakness. I didn't even clap, I just stared, all blank and distant. And if we score tomorrow I shall probably boo, in case strangers think I care about the event I've paid to attend.

He was great for us and we were great for him. It looks like he's been unable to make it happen again, hopefully he'll find some success elsewhere. All the best Nige, keep smiling and make the most of your day.

Rugby referees tend to be good at their job, treat players with respect and equally, whoever they play for, and this allows them to clamp down on dissent. They also explain decisions, and use VAR correctly. Football needs to catch up. If Mike Dean was good at his job he would command respect.
-
Dean gives very unusual patterns of cards, reds that get overturned, yellows for no reason, while other players get three chances. His management of games is difficult to predict for people who bet on those sorts of things.
-
Those poor monkey-chanters with their Nazi flags, being forced to attack fans and the police after seeing someone kneeling. England should be thrown out.

cUnacceptable inconsistency and appalling standard of referees

Referees were struggling with the task so we gave them excellent technology support. The mistake was asking the same people who were struggling with the task to operate it. Some decisions are difficult and could go either way, others are bloody obvious to everyone - and too many of the latter are still happening on a weekly basis. As for Mike Dean, I hope he's just totally out of his depth. I feel sorry for the gambling sites that take bets on penalties and cards. -

So the PM doesn't seem to understand how basic farming works.... How can he not grasp the difference between selling meat and destroying it? Is it really thick or just doing a very good impression so that simpletons feel sorry for him? -
I'm not a rabid Ralph Out sort of guy, but questions now have to be asked. The squad looks stronger and we've played well in games and got nothing, which is okay for a couple, but if you're judged to be playing well and still dropping like a stone there is clearly a problem. Yep, your season doesn't get decided by games against Chelsea and Man City, but it fucking does if you lose at home to teams as poor as Wolves. There is an unsavoury hint of Claude about some of our play now, add in the lack of goalscoring threat and trouble is ahead. Simple plan - we must win the next game. No excuses about missing players or being unlucky or playing well - three points is all that counts. Please Ralph, turn it round.

There should be a mature debate about whether Brexit is working and if the current situation is just short term pain, or if anyone feels this was not what they believed they were voting for. I've seen a couple of Leavers regretting it, but there seems to be a huge majority of them that believe for their own reasons that what we have now has made Great Britain a better place. Others might politely suggest that the facts indicate otherwise and our skies are currently filled with chickens coming home.
-
A big day for Ralph, if we get a thumping he must be in big trouble. Something has to change - formation, line-up, luck, manager, or all four. But he has been here before after the first 9-0. I'd have been one game from sacking him back then and he turned it around, if he can do it again, it needs to start now.

Who would have thought that building your defence around Vestergaard and Bertrand could lead to problems? Easy mistake to make. Once.
-
Surely we didn't put that much in the buckets?
