Is it wise for Santa to make unlawful entry and then creep around their house in the night?...

I love those club emails - 'Tell us about your matchday experience'.... 😨 Mate, you don't really want us to tell you what we thought.

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

I get the impression that enthusiasm for defending this government is dwindling and people are less keen to sully their own reputations by explaining away the corruption and misinformation right now. I'm sure they'll still vote for all the unsavoury stuff, on the quiet, but people seem less keen to own it at the moment, as if they now finally realise how much it reflects on them. Honest question - any Boris fans feeling like enough is enough? And dumping the leader is no get out at all, that won't cleanse the soul - same party, same government, same policies and same agenda. For me the only thing that would clean this current mess is genuine independent enquiries, sackings, a massive overhaul, and if required, a prosecution or three. -
Bob Brunskell, but you might end up with a restraining order.

Reluctantly I agree - he is a great player, but last night he met his match and was beaten very easily several times. Now we have a squad of sorts, we need to use it.

If I read the latest corruption news correctly, has it now emerged that Hancock went to great lengths to cover up giving his pub mate a £40m contract by hiding the specific detail in the small print and blanking that out in the public version? -

It's even madder than that - it's like blaming our poor form in 2021 on Sam Allardyce, because he wasn't good enough to get the job when we appointed Ralph. -

Now we hear there are no minutes for the meetings where hundreds of millions of pounds of contracts were given away to minister-related parties, with not a hint of a tender process. Is there anyone in this country who still believes that this government is not corrupt? -
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?

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.
