I'm not saying he's not fucking tragic but... are we saying that Elliot isn't? We seem to lose by at least 4 goals every time he's involved. That said, if the thrust of the argument here is that we should get someone better than both of them, then yes I agree that would make sense.

For what reason is it not appropriate exactly? Are they concerned about possible abuse?

Were the Dutch involved by any chance?

I enjoyed this also He's a welcome addition to the cartoonist ranks in the Guardian. Love the Ashley/Carver dig as well.

That's just copiously graphic

Well said that man.

My missus is Cantonese so I'm kind of obliged to state such a preference to be honest.

Dammit I knew that'd be considered questionable somehow. I'm not hugely certain on why it's a paedo thing but I'll just accept that and avoid the usage of such in future...!

Can't say I'm all that into Ms. Wilson to be honest; she's hot I grant you, but...I prefer oriental girls in general - Natalie is a welcome exception however.

I bet Dormer does yoga though...

Dormer...every time...

At least you're honest.

In reality I have no idea, although I hope it's some kind of commentary about your interior decor choices.

Triffid: The triffid is a fictitious, tall, mobile, prolific and highly venomous plant species I think it's pretty obvious what he's getting at.

This is actually a very good point. I'd not thought about that before. Also agree on North Korea, although I think China would descend on them like a ton of bricks if they ever actually did anything directly aggressive. NK will be sorted out regionally and without our involvement. Russia is a different story, and Mako is likely correct in thinking that Putin checks his actions because of our capabilities (amongst others in NATO, if not the UK on it's own).

Of course they have, the fuckwits No one saw that coming, Nige.

WTF

Worse than Elliot...? And yes, Vlaar is an obvious one too but I figured he'd go to Man Utd. That said, I don't hold much hope for us getting Richards either. Liverpool shouldn't bother with Ings, he's decent but not the superstar striker they need in order to just miss out on the top 4 next year.

That image is too small to read.

The SNP comparison is a good one, but that only worked because they had something meaningful to offer people across a broad swathe of political areas, and had proven this by being in power in for some time up until that point. And even then, I think this is a flash in the pan - they'll be burned in the same way that the Lib Dems were this time around once they have to take responsibility for policy decisions that go wrong instead of just pointing at Westminster.

Reckon Mako might be right on this one. UKIP's raison d'etre is this referendum on Europe. If the Tories have it and we vote out, why would anyone except the extremists vote for UKIP again? They'd have achieved their objective. If we vote to stay in, then they might rumble on - but they'd be entirely without legitimacy, as the country, as a majority, will have rejected their view. Support will fall away as people voting for them currently realise that an escape from Europe isn't going to happen, and that voting for other parties will better influence their lives. The only scenario I can see for them hanging around is if they start distancing themselves from the Europe question and putting a real effort into talking about their other policies in the run up to it while they still have people's ears. Another good move by Cameron to be honest, he'll kill UKIP altogether with this referendum.

I'd take Brad Jones to replace Elliot and put some actual pressure on Krul. Micah Richards if he'd even consider moving here. Agree with Fish on Ings and Sinclair.

Seriously?! Fair play to him.

For his footballing ability, yes. As for Liverpool, I think they're about to start a long and relatively painful process of sliding slowly down the table year on year.

Pretty sure the ref closed that off early for QPR's sake.
