  1. Yep the Brexiters will be doing just nicely for Corbyn and his mob, give it another year and the folly of completely leaving the EU will be full in our faces. Iam very happy with immigration but not unlimited, we need young people to come into our society to make up for the shortfall we have in our own population to keep the older generations cared for. The costs to your business have ramped up and will do so more as costs feed through, this in turn will make our products dearer and so the advantage at present of the exchange rate will be eroded.
  2. lol, not in my house, that was quick and get them off fast have different meanings
  3. Lol , nice one, nor a photocopying machine salesman. He may be driving a taxi now as he did a bad job for my business at the time
  4. In the past rising inflation was met by a raising of interest rates. I wonder if that may add to the nonsense we are facing now. A restranteur I was speaking to yesterday was bemoaning tha fact that he can see 35% price rises coming through from his suppliers. Give it a year and I wonder if the nation will be pushing for a second vote. I caught a bit of the interview on BBC breakfast this morning and the chairman of WPP said something about a vote on Brexit, he worded it an unusual way. The rabid Brexitters will always be rabid about it but IM sure like the remainers there are plenty in the middle ground and if there is some kind of resolution there may be somewhere instead of this madness into the unknown.
  5. Yes,a business contact was very friendly with him
  6. be under no illusion that Jrod would have been here had he not got injured. He was Spurs bound
  7. you are jumping to the conclusion that I believed it was a thin squad all of a sudden. It was in the summer and still is now. The manager is doing a very good job as well
  8. injuries are always going to happen unless you are really lucky, like Leicester last season. They lost none of their key players. Therefore it would be perhaps prudent to have backup especially as we were relying on Jrod to come good to make up for losses to ur goalscoring. It was not a case of losing to Chelsea, although had we had more zip and energy then we may well have given them more of a game (Long would have stretched their defence with his pace)our performance against Sunderland also showed our lack of depth as we were poor there as well. Anyway, Iam hopeful that we will show our preious good football and energy when we play Inter on thursday
  9. Puel seems to be a very smart man and hopefully he can weave some magic or unearth a couple of gems from the youth. I think the way the team looked jaded yesterday underlines the need for a couple more players, although it is always hard to get decent players in in that window
  10. The team have performed well so far this season, but concerns of mine and oters during the summer that we needed a few more coming in due to the extra games and loss of goalscorers. No Long and Jrod left us pretty thin. I know it was only yesterday that ti eally showed but the gmes are coming quick and fast
  11. Davis' deadball kicks were awful, he really did have an offday
  12. Agree, I didn't see him as a problem today,
  13. a sluggish display, VVD even seemed disinterested. Tadic not in the game and Davis poor by his standards. We looked comfortable enough until Chelsea scored through a decent bit of skill by Hazard. I felt there was a lack of belief, before the game I was very confident of a draw minimum but was not expecting such a lethargic and unimaginative display. Hopefully we will be more energetic on Thursday. Hard to put MOM but Romeau closest to having a good performance.
  14. Pete Burns has passed away, will he be buried or just put in the plastic recycling bin
  15. From a first team player who has been at the club a decent time. Pull is the best manager he has played under and is very popular with the players who really like him.Very happy squad apparently
  16. I believe that Puel is the master of squad rotation. To get good performances wih massive team changes, is a miracle. Puel may well become our best manager ever, I dont understand much of what he says but he seems to know what he's doing.
  17. Mick Channon, and we got some great years from him
  18. thats good news
  19. As much as I love SFc there is no way VVD will want to stay if a major club comes along for him
  20. seems that somebody has some smoke bombs,ive seen 2 let off now!!!
  21. me also, thanks for the link
  22. sadly McQueen will now be branded as a diver due to comments on TV etc and may in future have trouble getting a decision. There was contact but he made sure by falling down. In real time his dive was not so obvious but replays made it look bad.
  23. IMO a very good post
  24. who is Terry??
