These kids today don't know they're alive. We paid 15% soon after getting our first mortgage in the mid 70's. The difference from today is that our first house, a new semi, cost about 4.5 times my salary which these days would only be about £100k - £150k, the price of a small flat.

If that's the case, there's nothing stopping the school running it themselves.

Not illegal but against Ground Regulations so they can kick you out if they wish. Can't see a problem if you're up the back and not blocking anyone's view, but, but you always get the occasional jobsworth.

Oo-err missus....

Boris has done the decent thing (no, he's not shot himself). https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-65863267

I was in the same class at school as Baroness Hallett who is leading the inquiry. She wasn't a Baroness then, just plain Heather Hallett.

With 10 years inflation that would be about £680 today

£36 reduction for me. Works out at £19 per game. I can live with that.

Makes you wonder how Kalvin Phillips gets in. Comes back from the World Cup and Pep says that he's overweight. Doesn't start a game until January when we knock them out of the EFL cup. Doesn't start a Premiership game until last Sunday at Brighton.

Couldn't care less if he's an alien shape-shifting lizard. If he gets us playing decent footy then he'll do.

It's always puzzled me why they show adverts during the game. I can't imagine anyone watching them. Although going by the quality of the footy recently maybe they're the more entertaining option.

£475 for 23 games works out as £20.60 per game.

As long as the price doesn't go up, I'll be renewing.

Mane's 2m 56s hat trick against Villa.

Long chat with Sir Rickie. Talks a lot of sense.

I'm in the Bassett ward though I live at the top end of Shirley. All 3 Lib Dems were elected. They were very active in the weeks leading up to the poll with lots of leaflets and knocking on doors. Didn't hear a word from the Tories, no literature, no visits and now no Councillors (in Bassett).

Who comes up with this rubbish?

More lunacy from over the pond: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-65433304

Don't sit on the fence, Rut. Tell us what you really think.

Compulsory guns would be even better.

£475 for a sad old git in the Chapel. If unchanged, that would work out as £20.65 per game which I think is ok.

The difference with that season is that after 27 games we were 10th in the table partly due to Broja's goals. After the 4-0 defeat at Villa it was downhill, but we had enough points in the bag to survive. This season we were bottom after game 27 and that's probably where we'll end up.

I take it that the "arse licking" was metaphorical.
