How about this for a Brexit benefit: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwy875px79po

I slagged him off before I'd even heard of him.

I reckon I called him before Zog anyway😂 for the little it matters

No you weren't. Let's not rewrite history on the back of a dour end to his reign. A promotion, 5 place, 3rd place and 90 minutes away from promotion doesn't make you right. Unless every manager in the land is going to come in to division 3 football and win the league by 30 points.

They'll probably keep what they've got but can't see them gaining too much more, all depends on how much appetite there is for reform by the time the election comes round

Tommy Robinson's guilty pleasure

Been a breath of fresh air this year playing with proper wingers, and seems bonkers to me to question their contribution. But I get the point in questioning the decision-making at times, particularly ACD (who's been ace btw, chuffed we've got him). So for a bit of balance, our 3rd winger who most seem to have written off already came on the other day on at least two occasions made the correct choice to lay it off to teammates in a better position. Both resulted in shots at goal, one of them hit the bar. If we're criticising for making the wrong decisions, shouldn't we acknowledge good ones (even if he runs a bit funny and does a gazillion step-overs)? Or at least give the lad a fucking chance.

Nope. but you can see how easily your “arguments” unravel when you directly contradict yourself in the space of 2 posts? Actually, you almost certainly can’t. You appear to have spent the day talking to yourself again and you’ll need your owd fella meds again soon.

This place is starting to become like a Bolty batting cage. Doesn't matter what you write on any topic he'll fire off a response of varying quality. Bolty - mate - for one last time (with feeling) re smash the gangs - please read the white paper on immigration that came out in May this year. I mean it is 80 pages and inbetween posting on here and looking after your 'business assets' in Spain you might not get time. Anyway the first part of the white paper came (ie part of the legislative agenda) in July this year. The rest do not require primary legislation and will.come.into effect on the new legislative agenda from the home office. However, changes to the naturalisation law do require primary legislation (ie an act of parliament; that control of sovereignty that we always had anyway but you seem so beloved of) and will be tabled. See, politics - boring isnt it? (And yes in case you were wondering, I am patronising you 😘)

Good post. Back to the game. I see they lost last night, albeit in the EFL trophy, but Bowyer acknowledged that the defeat to Chesterfield was "a reflection of where we're at at the moment"

Gonzo has the video.

It might not be a "must win". However not winning only increases the number of "must wins" later. It's pivotal that we start winning away, and it would be very disappointing if we don't. Obviously, if there is a development in the game -eg red card- then a draw may be seen as reasonable, but as things stand now, if we don't win, then the questions and criticism will grow. If the players want to play at a higher level, they have to become more ruthless and consistent.

Something in that, but I don't think they're instructed to do it- we're just watching league one players. SS has told them to go both ways, and publicly explained it. It's what we all want. It was notable that Burstow said (interview with SJM) that the first time cross from Christie was what he wanted. Not the first time he has said that, and it is a clear message to the wide players about their delivery.

Ian loved it.

Think there's a bit of pedantry on here. If we don't win against Burton, yes of course we can still win other aways and get promoted, but not winning against these would be a bad result. Combined with not winning any of our other 5 aways it would be a very bad start to the season away. And the key point is that to get promoted you have to be averaging 2 PTS per game for autos (or around 1.7 to get in the play offs) so the longer we're off this the harder it is to get back to it because it needs ridiculously unlikely winning streaks. So while it isn't must win it's as you can get at this stage of the season.

I think it’ll come, we have the best squad we’ve had since being back in league 1. Serious competition for every position. Whether it’s the best squad in the division I have no idea. SS seems a genuine grounded guy who I would want to try and do well for.. as long as the pressure doesn’t get to him and he starts making rash decisions or comments I think he is strong enough to tweak the areas that need tweaking and get us up to where we should be. He made a lot of changes in the summer and it’s understandably taking time to bed it all in. Keep the faith!

Carry on. Moronic behaviour. Why does football do this to some people?

...or poor at spelling.

I think that mine might well be this morning.

The lad refereed his first game without me on Sunday. Girls U12s. Feedback I’ve had is he made a couple of dodgy decisions (15 years old, 4 games in). I won’t mention the club, but a parent is so tough he entered the pitch and squared up to him… now he refused to restart the game until the parent left the area, but he’s come back at full time, gone to shake, badge squeezing his hand trying to hurt him. I initially laughed this off, but as more time passes the angrier I’m getting. Tried contacting the club and welfare officer, but I’m raising it with Lancs FA. Referees are harder to get, bellends like this are the reason why.

Can you abandon this tack - right now. You are correct sir. "Smash the gangs", "no new taxes for working people" for example. Combined two posts here when I was aiming for 17 consecutives just to piss off the fungal feral. Been up all night again at a Virgen de Rosario mega piss up (we religious types love 'em - Kent will be along labelling my attendance as 'far right conspiracy to take over the church' shortly). Thrown my concentration right off has all that Ladron de Manzanas. Sleep time - will rejoin the fray later.

Yawwwnnnn! Weave in Brexit too. Send us all off. 2029 is not that far away. Stay away from owt sharp.

Likely beyond your tiny mind but worth another shot. Showing support for a proscribed terrorist organisation is breaking the law. If the 'Tommy Robinson supporter' broke the law then c'est la vie.

Won't your Lib Dems led by an absolute clown piss it in?

Great work. Keep it up. As much ridicule as you can muster. Nothing, but nothing drives them further up the polls than ridicule. In fact, I am going back and giving this one a 'like'.
