I did, but I'm more interested in Saints.

Adams getting a kick in the head was an accident, Theo getting studded down his calf so late it was off the ball was definitely not, and a proper referee would have dealt with that. It was a little bit Puel tonight, hopefully through fatigue. We're doing okay.

The answer to Brexit and Covid is clearly to reopen the shipyards. As the UK leads the world in every field of human endeavour I'm sure we can build enough new cruise liners to house all the ill, and with Boris having negotiated for our waters to be bigger too, we have more room to moor them all. Once the virus fades away we can then transform them into battleships and get a few wars on the go against some little countries - maybe develop an empire... Sounds like a project for Chris Grayling.

Or as Dave Allen would say, may your God go with you. Happy Friday everybody - even the angry ones, they need peace and love more than most. 🎅

Delayed response in February, Boris shaking hands, Dido Harding's Cheltenham Festival allowed to run, PPE opportunities missed then contracts awarded in a corrupt fashion, dither and delay over borders and airports, time wasted on failed systems when launching a robust testing regime was absolutely key, U-turns, MPs lying, laughable appointments of key roles, lessons from other countries ignored, NHS staff exposed without kit, billions of taxpayer pounds wasted, old people left to die in care homes, science ignored, more U-turns, the public and scientists gently blamed, figures manipulated, targets missed but lied about - and you can be sure the final trick will be to delay and dodge an enquiry that would expose the most inept and corrupt cabinet in living memory. Anyone who seriously thinks they've done a great job needs sectioning - look at them, they couldn't run a fucking bath.

Nigel Farage is a hero? What an interesting way of looking at the world.

Entry to the ground was very simple, ID partially-checked, no queue. It was nice to be back and I was fortunate to make the draw for game two but....it's an odd experience. A bit like watching a reserve game, yes there was atmosphere but it's pretty quiet and relaxed. As for people who choose to sit in Row F regularly, you can't see half of what's happening across the pitch! 😊

Anything that makes stadiums less of a safe haven for racists and makes them get all angry is definitely time well spent. And everyone sensible who can see the need for the message perfectly understand the differences between similarly-named campaigns, can grasp the bigger picture about football, and as a result of being informed are pretty chilled about the whole thing. Racists like to make mischief to distract from the facts - but life is too short to get angry about nowt. 😊

Tipner is technically an actual dump. Toxic waste.

If I was looking to attack the opposition on anything I'd rather discuss topics like Barnard Castle, bullying at work and absent fathers before mentioning the subject of wasting taxpayers' money. PPE.

Is this the official forum meeting place for angry people? It reeks of simmering gammon and marinated pinkos. 😊

Boris has played a blinder, pretending to be a clueless corrupt clown, bumbling about like an arrogant scruffy Eton simpleton from the 1950s, but cunningly forcing the EU into a full surrender to our terms! It's his billionaire backers I feel sorry for, those who benefit the most from a No Deal will be shafted this weekend. When he delivers this 'fantastic deal' he's been promising, they are going to feel that their donations have been a waste of time and they've been misled for four years. That can't be a good feeling, and certainly one they won't want to admit yet.

Woke? 🤣😅😂

It's not racist, but it's ignorant and confirms the speaker is ill-informed about his own job. An official in the Champions' League should know who he's dealing with and he should know that referring to someone just by colour is rude and leaves him open to criticism. He should also know that in this case his own language is open to massive misunderstanding. Like Clark, not racist, just out of touch with the basic requirements of his job. And if people still think it's not backward to describe anyone firstly by their colour, there's no point in debating as it's too late for them.

Sadly some of them do need reminding.

From a PR point of view I would imagine the first recipient had to pass a full fitness test and political interview before being 'randomly selected'.... The last thing Boris needs is her popping her clogs anytime soon or slagging off the vaccine/government response. Nice to hear the vulnerable list being rushed through should be sorted within five months and the rest of the population sometime in the next year or two. This could take longer than Brexit.

Some commentators are still working on the laws of the game from 1973. Contact started outside the box, continued into the box. Penalty. The end.

The devil is in the detail... This morning it was said that our first delivery should be enough to vaccinate 400,000 people maximum. Millions will follow but not until the end of the year, so the real programmes will probably start in January/February.

People watching porn with the volume up while you're trying to shit on the bus.

When putting on a shoe, one of the laces nips in under your foot. I don't even know how they do it. Sneaky bastards.

Bit OTT. We lost to a very expensive side with quality on the bench and yet some people on here are slagging the players as if we are five points adrift at the bottom. We've done very well so far this season, but we have a way to go before we can have prima donna fans making out our team is beyond useless and throwing hissy fits. We all witnessed a proper horrendous performance over a year ago, yesterday was not one - some people need to stop the fucking moaning and get real. We are punching above our weight, and I'm glad we are, but I'm realistic enough not to wee myself when a player on three times our average wage proves himself to be quite useful. But thanks for calling me pathetic, nice touch, top banter.

I wasn't able to watch the game but reading the comments here I assume we lost 9-0 again.

Serco could handle the payments - just give them another blank chequebook.

The marketing strategy has been pretty transparent for a few weeks now. Monday is announce some vaccine progress day, start the week with some vague positivity. 👍 The other six days are about survival mode - a new corruption or bullying scandal breaks every morning, just ignore the questions and try to make it through to Monday...all wrapped up in a shallow attack on Manchester to suggest that it's their own fault for answering back. In the meantime the taxpayer cash is pouring out of the back door at an unprecedented rate. Anyone want to defend the £22 billion?

Saints Unplugged. Ralph with an acoustic guitar.
