I glanced past a snippet online saying that Rodgers would be interested, if so that would be immense

Either the Celebs were thick (eg Garraway, Beaumont) or the show was so editied that the celebs didnt focus in on the glaring errors. It was easy viewing but the tasks are annoying , so i videoed to skip through. The celebs thinking there were exposives on the train!!! lol. Couldnt believe that Nick changed his mind at the last second! Brilliant charity that Alan Carr got the money for so alls good

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
OldNick replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
I doubt that its 50% less. Although very difficult to guage as not many like for like jobs. Im not against the rank and file but the bloated management structure. -
IMO he plays turgid football, and also the club cannot afford to alienate the fanbase anymore. You may accept him being an ex Skate but the majoity would not.

Im against this. Firstly he plays turgid football, also SR cannot risk annoying the fanbase further by having a exSkate as manager. The fans will be anti from the off and the first time it goes wrong they will be on the owners/managers back. You only have to look at Cooper at Leicester after being at Forest. If he was a topmanager then I expect fans would swallow it but not an average talent when there are many others as good if not better out there. Imagine the constant agent O'neill stuff

is it 6 or 8 weeks in the summer ? then 6 weeks before another week or 2. There is no real need for this as my understanding is that the long vacations were for historic reasons eg when the kids helped with the harvest. Please dont come back saying about stress etc as most modern jobs have untold stress. -
If the club want the number of Wengers main man for this, who helped their squad become seril winners Ive got it

I suspect we know the answer. Good luck if it is the case, but no reason not to really look intothe future awards -

Yes I do go off on tangents, but I have so much in my head going around and this all is linked to the general waste. Iam comfortable paying 2p more in tax, as long as soon as I start paying it I dont see doctors, teachers and other public workers getting bigger salaries. Im sure as soon as there is more money there, their Unions will think 'lets fill our boots' as the NHS and Education the MP's are frightened to bring it to the table, as it is a vote loser -

I feel he is the best MP that Labour has got -

Im sure, but I beieve many outside of being a teacher fret at them having untold weeks off and when they go back to work there always seems to be a teacher training day, normally on a monday for a long weekend. Training should be in the school holidays -

Of course, but the cost needs to be addressed. Billions extra is being poured into the NHS, has it improved? No, the budgets get biger and the need for really making it efficient is looked over. Even people in the NHS admit to the massive waste. I want the NHS to be good for us all but constant putting money in isnt the answer. -

Its a difficult subject, as soon as you say teacher or nurse people get all precious. As i say Im not so concerned bout those at the lower levels but the management structure where it seems to be very much over done -

Its not jealousy, it is common sense. Workers in the private sector are paying for lavish pensions and early retirement, Im not talking about pensios for the lower earners but the higher echelons -
I agree, for the first ime he actually got involved a tad. He won hearers at both ends of thee pitch and did try to be more forceful. I hope its a sign of better things

A friend asked the council some years ago how much of his council tax was for historic pensions, it came back if I recall correctly, as around 40%. -
Apparently he likes to play from the back and so Russball II, hence Bazunu and his passing out. Personally Im not convinced, playing the last 20 minutes with backs to the wall is not good for my health. We were edgy with both Jay and THB giving nedless corners away.
-
I feel you are being unfair. It was the first performance from Downs that showed a little promise. He won headers up top and in our box. He is not yet a top player but Armstrong was inneffective for most of the game apart from the one pass to Jay.

The last 25 minutes I thought Simon Rusk had been parachuted in

Well when the ref has his hand in the air counting it down from 5, thats a bit of a clue. No excuse for not knowing the rules, and the reason its not happening is that all the other keepers release the ball
-
A terrible judgement error picking him. A real conundrum for the manager as he cant go ack to the less flappable Macca. I nearly smashed the TV up when he held onto the ball for more than 8 secs. I was shouting kick it !!! Let alone letting go of the weak shot my Chair than was simple. Yes he did save the header but the defence nervy enough let alone with him behind them. He also kicked into touch somethng gets pointed at Macca.

Fair point,

You only have to read the Match thread to work that out lol

I thought it was you

He has put himself into harms way . bravely on many occasions this season. No wonder he was offended
