Politics
Tories (ideologically) wouldn't want to do it. It'd be suicide for Labour because there's still a hard core of 'traditional' Labour voters who are ardently pro-Brexit. Libs could but won't because they want to win seats of Tories in posh places with plenty of OAP type brexiters. Might be a different landscape at the election after this one, but it's a product of first past the post and how divisive the issue was and still is. Incidentally, I find it bizarre that of all the issues that could have become so partisan, Brexit was the one.

Football Ventures
just had a quick look at his appointments on companies house https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/officers/hy1AaSz-BOVmQgPHW8uIss3LMpw/appointments set up a load of companies in 2022. They're all basically called Bassini followed by just about any type of business he could think of. My favourite is BASSINI’S SOUP KITCHEN FOR THE HOMELESS AND VULNERABLE PEOPLE LIMITED. Checked a few of his earlier businesses and they all seem to be dormant or in negative equity. Think he's mental.

If your dogs eat it, it's cat. If they roll in it, it's fox. (and as said, anyone who intentionally hurts animals is by definition an utter wanker. Hope he makes a full recovery)

Playoffs
Think you're right. West Brom played West Ham in an early league cup final, but it was a 2 legged job, not Wembley.

Playoffs
4 by my reckoning; Marseille and Lisbon as above. Partick Thistle (draw and loss in 76/77 Anglo-Scottish cup) Druids (2 draws and a loss in 1882/83 FA cup) We've never played Sutton.

Barnsley Home
I reckon sky commentators got it wrong and it was a foul by GT at near post. Basically same thing he did for 3rd goal but he dragged him to the floor (/Barnsley mon decided to take a tumble).

Port Vale (H)
missed three sitters today. best to get it out of his system before it really matters.

Brand Evatt
His goals at the start of the season seemed to all come from balls whipped early into the box, low and between CBs and keeper. We don't seem to do that anymore. He's been frustrating at times, esp with first touch, but I've a feeling (hope?) there's more to come from Vic. Far more worried about Dion. I'm probably forgetting some good performances, but hasn't seemed the same since the Pompey miss.

Playoffs
it would have had to be last 6 to keep it in our hands.

Brand Evatt
Remember Orient at home when we were 3-0 up and looking world beaters. There was a break in play and Ritchie Wellens got into his players and changed the system. We ended up clinging onto a 3-2. Plenty other examples of opposition managers making changes mid-game to change the flow. Can't remember one time Evatt's done that this season. And that's Ritchie fucking Wellens.

Pompey (H)
I remember seeing the line-ups pre Oxford home game. I looked at their formation against ours and thought they'd have pockets all over the place to exploit gaps in our set up. We dicked em five nowt. Moral of the story: I know fuck all about formations.

Wycombe V Derby
Great result. If we played like Derby every week we'd rightly get a fuckin slating. They were dire.

Meanwhile In England
Down with woke corporations that make you work. Stand up for moaning down the pub. And for your childrens' right to moan down the pub. And your childrens' children. Up the revolution gathering brothers.

31 years ago . Same scenario Yes or No ?
Couple of things stand out from that video. First, what a weak pen to give in that situation. Second, that grey haired bloke who knocked over the linesman ... wtf was that two-handed 'punch'.

Just checked ... that's our longest winning run to end a season. Won the last 4 on 5 separate occasions, but only time we've won last five. (so far 😁)
