    Budget

    I expect if the UKIP lot on here had their way anyone with special needs would expect their future to be working for £2/hour for Mike Ashley or Amazon and when finished work they could return to a Capita run workhouse. Just think of the benefit to business. Get back to the good old days when the mill owners had a right to keep their hard earn money.

    Budget

    'Tiny mild dose' - so practically nothing in your eyes. Maybe it is adult social care we should be slashing more, or schools or the police? And Ireland, Greece needed cutting more severely. No comparison with our economy so why would we need the same measures? I will assume you are in the camp that extravagant public spending caused the crash and nothing to do with global banking crisis? Amusing you think I am a pinko - do you know what that term means? I guess not if applying liberally to anyone who actually thinks we all benefit from a fairer society. And I am I lucky enough to be able to comfortably provide for my family without being reliant on public services by and large. Although it is essential theta are there for those that aren't as lucky. That is not meant to sound self-righteous but making point not driven by personal envy.

    Make sure you aren't a hypocrite and ever view and enjoy a game on tv.

    So you don't really believe there have been cuts? What services do you think need cutting more? Although don't know why I bite as appreciate you see yourself as the forum' Katie Hopkins. You are quite ignorant of what has gone on in the country and probably quite unconnected to anyone in real need. Did you get this opinion from one of your little podcasts?

    Politicians not keeping election promises? Whatever next! Also think helped by slow news day.
  6. That's why they have time to plan elaborate goal celebrations then.
  7. Disagree there I'm afraid. More to McQueen's game.
  8. Have you thought of raising a complaint with the illegal streaming ombudsman? Poor service indeed.

    Good, bad or indifferent? I don't get what all the fuss is about the NI for self-employed. Why should they not contribute same as employed? Don't understand the papers getting all excitable. Do they think they should be subsidised by others? Surely not. And 'strivers' - FFS many are contractors just trying to make as much as they can and contribute as little as possible.
  10. I don't think the FA favour the big teams but refs mostly do. Not in any deliberate way but will inevitably make more passive decisions. Would love to know what Friend was saying to Zlatan for 30 seconds or so. Subconsciously or not he was probably thinking Mourinho will be off on conspiracy rant if I get this wrong and that's the news for the next few days so easier not to send him off. Not that had to have different thought process for Surman and was right decision when on a yellow but he knows that will never be a talking point in same way. Fergie played that same game and does get them the advantage.

    Redmond

    Don't take it so personally - generally players get written off hastily. He may go way of Gaston but also could eclipse Mane. We live in hope. I think he's going to be a great addition. Fans behind me at Sunderland game were slagging him off and then scores the goal no one else on that pitch could score. And for record I always had faith in Redmond too. Never wants to hide.
  12. They have never managed to kill Pirate Bay. Hoping sportsmania will be as canny.

    Redmond

    Boufal clearly has unbelievable talent or 'class' if that is what is meant by that term. Only in glimpses so far though. When he came on against Swansea he looked incredible. Far too soon to write off but that won't stop many. Come to think of it who of the flare type players haven't been written off? Mane and Redmond were.
  14. Fonte having v poor game.
  15. That's the spirit Simo. You'll soon be out of the bedwetter camp.
  16. No that would be foolhardy. Point is games don't always go to form. Any idiot can see Spurs are favourites but doesn't mean we don't stand a chance and will get stuffed. Read pessimism on threads for every game. Probably the same tarts who get hysterical about Lawro not having confidence in us.
  17. You must clean up with the bookies betting on all the 'form' outcome of games.
  18. The pitches are better than Mansel Park so I would worry unduly as unlikely slide onto a needle.
  19. I'll give you Arsenal but would discount as reserve team. Spurs wasn't hopeless. Started strong although agree overwhelmed mostly we also had 10 men for last 30 mins. And no one does the double over us anymore.
  20. You've not been impressed with Caceres or Hassen then? Forster is unlikely to be shipped out.

    Redmond

    Arguably a higher accolade than being called up by England. Recognition from Garth Crooks http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39174667
  22. Sad to think you are watching Countryfile.
  23. You lot would've all ditched Yoshida no doubt. We need back up players and no point selling them all to buy more. Clasie has been nowhere near as bad as some of you make out. Rodrigues, Martina and Gardos definitely Isgrove hardly counts but yes. I would say Forster but will be very unlikely.
  24. We never get stuffed. Why do so many put these teams on a pedestal? They couldn't beat Sunderland. Ok home record is strong but I still expect us to get something.
