Went to see my nana today, she's 102 tomorrow. She's looking forward to voting Labour on July 4th, because "I'm not having another five years of these lying fraudsters"

Bloody brilliant , thanks for asking. He's at least 12 years old now. First time I've had a Staffie, they must be perfect for adolescent boys... he farts can clear a room, he does 100 decibel sneezes and snores almost as loud. Loves his walks and coming out to work with me, Me and anvil 'ed are best of pals 🙂

Yup. He'd have spent this morning eyeballing pedestrians while yelling 'bang on' to everything Simon Jordan says with egg butty dripping out of the corner of his mouth.

We should have more poetry on here

Ruths a good un Not perfect but I dont need perfect Some vague sense of competence, decency and not being a cruel cunt would do

I swear people don't actually read anymore - even posts on a forum - this has been gone through nary three posts back. If you can't wait for the manifesto a week ago the 5 first strategic key pledges were released https://labour.org.uk/updates/stories/labours-first-steps-for-change/ Or you can read the fuller missions with more details here: https://labour.org.uk/missions/ Or listen to Starmer's speech right after the annoucement, went through the 5 prorities then, or indeed yesterday in Gillingham or this morning on LBC or the Today programme which he was on afterwards. Maybe he should whack them on a bus and drive round a bit whilst being trapped ona zip wire with a Union Flag dangling from his arse.

Good Bullying cunt

More than likely straight out of public school and Oxbridge. Gets handed the ‘socials’ job because they’re a young un. Only problem is the closest they’ve come to interacting with a ‘real’ person is the farrier at pony club or the barman at Henley. Fucking laughable.

Does the dog shit sample collector man have to be little because he's closer to the said dog shit? Or is the market open to taller people?

What flim flam? Expected to give a full costed policy on a question time panel - never in the history of a panel political programme has that ever happened, and it has never, ever happened in a campaign period. It was a well coped with QT - nothing broken, lines held to, policies defended against the reality of what will happen one one if Labour get into power, nothing to hold them to with over promises if they get into power. You have to ram home the message again and again and again before it goes in - which is why you'll hear change, change, change and change again over and over and over again. Also Stability is Change seems to keep cropping up from Labour HQ - they have to balance being favourites and being humble - to promise more but also ensure they are not hung out to dry by their words in the first 100 days. Its a real balancing act. I really think you might want to do a bit more finding out first. Although, I have to remind myself that the majority of the country are voting from this position, so yes that's why you'll hear soundbites because ultimatley this is what works.

They love the three word soundbites though. Stop the boats - we have more boats coming now get brexit done - a shit deal for the UK followed take back control - we now have less control than we did before and it is more expensive for UK business build back better - this only works if you live in london The Tories record is indefensible.

That's not how it works you wally. The outline key tasks so that people who aren't nutters actually listen, the manifesto has been ready to go for months and months, once the election is called then all the oddballs read the manifesto and headlines get taken from this - which will be similar to the key missions. Its the same for every party - because you can't pledge something four years out from an election.

Taking time to think is not hiding away. Surely it's doing the right thing. Many people on here are clearly still emotional about last weekend so fair to assume he might be too. Never the best way to make decisions. I also think some off the cuff comments he's made have been massively misinterpreted by a lot of people. Worth bearing in mind this week will have been a 'normal' working week saying goodbye to loan players, out of contract players, end of season fitness tests etc. As it is half term next week and he has kids, I'd imagine he'll be off somewhere on holiday. So, you're likely to have to wait at least another week for any news. I expect him to be Bolton manager come August. His biggest decision will be whether to double down on his footballing philosophy or make changes to it. Either way, he'll know there's a risk and next season he will face pressure.

@gonzowill be able to confirm this as he sits in his van all day listening to it and patronising folk on here, instead of working.

Isn’t it time IE came out and told us what he’s doing? I accept he was gutted how things went as we all were but by now he’s either fired up to put it right or accepts he won’t change and needs away. Just hiding away indicates to me a weak mind for such a “big” guy.

We've scored a shed load of goals this season but a fair quota of them have been of less importance, flat track bullies filling our boots on those nights against Exeter, Oxford, Reading. We've fallen short by not creating enough (Stevenage) or not taking enough chances in those pivotal games. Last Sat's no show the worst example of all.

Evatt has spent around £1.8 million on Collins, Charles, Victor and Dan, just saying.

In terms of embarrassing fans Social Media has been full of some of ours who are fucking pathetic and thick as pigshit.

Dave Hatton played no. 6 in that team and John Napier was no. 5 rather than Hulme.

Actually JR I do agree with you on Victor and like you I’d prefer a replacement but unless someone comes in for him I’d rather try to play to his strengths whilst he is here. I’m not sure if it’s still IE he’ll change but if not at least try and get the wingbacks to get the ball across quicker to him. 🙂

Bastard! 😁

Funnily enough I saw something today on it and sure it said south edit: here it is

Not for Baby's But if you have northing to hide there is my DNA What pisses you off if you Give it But they don't Use it

Spineless fuckers. Almost like they can’t cope without the perks of being in power.

I am still amazed how quickly folk forget the whole COVID shambles. Sure most of the main protagonists are now gone but fucking hell. Maybe if Labour do get in power we will see Esco, GD, etc make a comeback?

My mother in law is 86 and a traditional Tory voter. She’s voting Lib Dem. Hopefully Covid doesn’t get either your Nan or my mother in law before the election. It isn’t selective.

Same thing happened to me when I was working in Market Harborough. Me and 3 lads off the job watched Holland v England these dicks were bang at it. Fast forward to midnight and we were rolling round the cobbles with them. Police turned up and took us back to our digs instead of arresting us. The police were like something off heartbeat and had never been out past 6pm at night round there. Reckon it's still being spoken about now in the town 20 years on.

Aye, that was the gist of the article I read. Everyone already knew it wasn't good for you to eat nothing but McDonalds for an entire month. Pretty pointless documentary really. Anyway, RIP Morgan.

Not surprised. The only time I'm even remotely likely to eat McDonald's is after 8 pints. 😁 Never really understood that "experiment" though. If all you ear for a month was apples, then there would be some sort of health implications

Arthur Marsh took over from Syd initially, but was more suited to CB .We got relegated in 70/71 & Armfield took over bringing hardman Henry Mowbray from Blackpool who played left back in an uncompromising way. Don McAllister took over from Mowbray & we got promoted the next season.

I always watch England games at home down south - can't stand endless cries of 'Faaaaarrrrrkkkkkinnnn' 'elll you faaarkin muppets' bellowed by loudmouth pricks in finance gillets and deck shoes.

Not one of his commentaries but you will enjoy this. The 40th anniversary of Sports Report and he presented it. Lots of contributions from other great names from that era... provided you disregard Stuart Hall!

i was a Ribble lad! Different class on them Hargreaves lol!

Since various posters have mentioned the two subjects of our cup games v Tottenham in early 1978 and the defenders John Ritson would have lined up with, let's combine the two and give Don McCallister a mention. A centre back who came through the ranks with Allardyce and Jones. Would have played with JR in the early 70s before we sold him to Tottenham for decent money.

We should've just made him sign.

Really? I never knew that.

Alfie May cones from East London. He was determined to 'go home'. He signed for Charlton. Joining Bolton was never on his agenda. You may as well say we should be signing Mbappe. Now, limited success with Vic & total confusion over signing Dan are quite different matters.

Anyone needing a fix the Euro U17s continue today including England v Portugal. At 1830. We spanked the French 4-0 in first game so hopefully have another decent crop coming through

Jack Cork released by Burnley - exactly the type I'd go for if we could convince him to do a 2 year deal on not a fortune

Some Spurs fans made a sharp exit after our winner, they ran down the steps under the railway bridge and they attempted to cover every exit from the Burnden Terrace to smash a few heads. It worked for about 20 seconds or so as they whacked the first few leaving the ground. Once it became clear what was happening they got booted all over the place by the masses of Wanderers who had waited till the final whistle before leaving.

Should've bought Alfie May instead of Victor and/or Dan.

It didn't feel like that to me. In the 2nd half of the season, if we could have got a few more points from away games at Wigan and Derby (0-1), Stevenage (0-0), Northampton (1-1), Orient (0-1), plus Pompey (1-1) and Shrewsbury (2-2) we would have walked promotion. And Oxford last week. We couldn't score enough goals, we didn't have enough shots with any purpsose.

Only because Cogley was getting down the line and whipping balls into the box even vic couldn’t miss from 3 yards out at the start of the season

That move would be more sideways than most of our passing

Villa was probably one of our better performances as we took a premiership side all the way this is by far the worst for me
