Again, my thoughts about the midfield. We've taken a chance and taken one off. They made 4 changes. Maybe theirs worked better.
-
We've just dominated the first half. Problem been not taking chances. We took off a midfielder and have arguably got weaker there.
-
No option.
-
We also have a few players unavailable. Hope Collins is ready.
-
Done pretty well so far? Could, perhaps should be ahead?
-
Anybody think the ref is a bit shit? 😁
-
Suppose you'd have the same time related issues. Additionally, at some point, there might be a conflict of interests. I suppose a third option is to make a specific position for these boards. Maybe drawn from the legal profession, with authority to rule based on medical, family, legal input etc.

The issue there is that many will suffer and maybe die before a case can be heard. Lord Sumption asked the question about what exactly a judge's role would be. The suggestion that a retired judge be on it would seem to be a step in the right direction.

The Managerial Roundabout

If Blackburn suffered some sort of collapse, and were docked points is it conceivable that they could end up near enough to the relegation zone that they could be sucked into it? -
Nah, no need. Unless of course some turnip launches a rocket at Israel or similar. I don't think it would take much for Israel to go back in so to speak, but if all hostages and prisoners were released as agreed, then I reckon there would be a hiatus. History does suggest that periods of calm don't last too long though.

That's as maybe, but the subsequent public discussion has been around how any panel would actually be constructed. That's the point I made: if it's done in such a way as to appease those with concerns, then that may make it palatable to them. Still time for subsequent ammendments I think, and lots of work to do. Like you, I'm wary of the whole concept, but there is also a need to recognise suffering. I can see my father in law drifting down this pathway, as I'm struggling to believe he really wants to get better, despite statements to the contrary. IF they can get it right, then fair enough. Just not there yet.

The defending as a whole this season hasn’t been any where near where it was and needed to be. I'm not convinced he'll play again for us neither- especially if the sulking comments were accurate. The king is dead, long live the King!
-
Dead right. Big difference in approach. Remember Rioch and his 4 strikers against Reading in the play off final. Borne out of necessity, and flummoxed the opposition. Stonking!

The Managerial Roundabout

Already been talked about on here, but yes, on first look, a bit weird. -
Not a leg to stand on, it seems. Certainly had their wings clipped.
-
Heard this last night. Certainly a concern, though I can see the logic because of the time it can take to get a court date. Capacity isn't there, and also concern expressed by Lord Sumption. As long as another independent body, with perhaps retired judges etc will work, though I suppose there will be questions of legal strength within it. Plenty to sort out.

Seems his videos of migrants being deported is catching on too. -
The Managerial Roundabout

As suspected then, smoke and mirrors. All too familiar- huge debt, and seemingly still losing money (unless selling for big dosh). Win the play offs and see if they've anyone that would benefit us in the fire sale. -
We had a bit of a weirdo round here a few months back. Seemed harmless enough, but he was worrying female dog walkers. Not in a literal sense, just weird. Then he went in Starmount bollock naked, before worrying kids and teachers at the local school. At that point, umpteen officers arrived and gripped him. Like your case, he was going to be taken to be sectioned, and de-arrested. Couple of days later, he was back and weird as ever. Then disappeared, and haven't seen him since!

SA may well come into the squad, maybe the team too. Inwood is the other one as you say.

Activation of a clause: I'm curious to know what that is, as it isn't a step up in terms of league placings. It says investment has been made in new players; on the face of it, that doesn't look.like a club with financial difficulties, or is it only partially accurate? -
-
Condolences. My father in law has made a remarkable improvement, but isn't out of the woods. Back home now, but it's now very much down to him. Shit time though.
-
Hadn't seen this, but the story is remarkable, as it's identical for me! Not long after my dad slipped away, I was digging in the garden, and as they do, a robin arrived, looking for a meal. I immediately said "hello dad", and have pretty much stuck with it since. Probably because they are happy to be around folk, so we indulge in some anthropomorphism.
