Renton

Livramento on the left with Hall on the right would seem logical, unless Gloom is correct.

Sounds like bullshit to me.

Ah well.

It's the only weak part of his game, we are worse without him imo.

Keep it at 1 0 and we are still in it. Typical we are playing Fulham when they've scored 10 in the last 2 matches.

We've got Wilson, Longstaff, Hall on the bench and Spurs have a terrible record holding leads.

Welcome to a world of pain anyway. Mine is half tracker, half fixed (for 2 more years I think). 14 successive rises on the former, about 500 quid per month I think in total. 6k a year ffs.on top of energy and food. Got credit card debts as well, honestly never felt poorer*. * Realise these are first world problems for me, there are the nice things I can cut out or reduce. A lot of people with mortgages are going to be fucked rhough when they negotiate their next deal. Thanks Liz.

So I went to see Martin Stephenson and the Daintees tonight, rare for me and the wife to get a night out without kids. At the bar before the gig, thought, what are all these old people doing here? Then realised I'm one of them. Ahh well, at least Martin still looks good. Love the half Mackem bastard.

I watched about 10 mins of that programme last month. That tractor porn ex MP was entering prison with old squat and latex glove routine performed on him, probably for a few grand. There is no grift too shameless for these fuckers. Mercer was an absolute cunt on QT this week too. Pity nobody asked him about this.

Fuck, you'll tell us you're married with kids next.

Oh my, oh my, my poor trophyshy. I really do pity you. There are a clique of us who have risen above the confines of this mortal coil and transcended into the realm of professional loafing. It's not easy, it takes a certain type of person who has no passion for work and who has successfully managed their work responsibilities to relatively trivial inputs in order to survive. I myself have managed this over three career jobs over 20 years doing this. Middle job was a challenge because the internet blocked this site but hey that's what phones are for. Doesn't stop me be the best performing employee in my role so fuck knows how bad my peers are. Probably over-loafed which is a risk.

The main thing for me is competence and corruption. They are complete charlatans. All of them.

Economy was doing well under latter day Major, despite this he was annihilated. People always vote with their pockets which is why they are turbo fucked now. And this Rwanda bullshit will not help that.

Who is that? Did she give permission? You'd think there was nothing wrong with the country at all the way these cunts go on about small boats. It's taking all their bandwidth. Never has a party been as badd as this lot. Mayor's 1997 party were nowhere near. Off the scale batshit.

I watched it too. Truth is on a Thursday night I'm oftern too fucked to bother watching anything that requires thought or even flicking channels.so QT is occasionally on my list. What a cunt Peter Hitchens is. Has there ever been two brothers as diferent as him and Christopher? Peter is that type of cunt that thinks he is clever but actually is too stupid to realise he's an intellectual pygmy.

Luxury. Wor Jackie went straight to the match on the bus after 36 hours in the pit*. Etc. * I'm aware there is some truth in this.

Listen, back in the day there were 11 players for a whole season, no subs, and you played on a frozen pitch with a sodden leather caser giving you brain damage. Players today are soft as shit.

Yeah, maybe he will. Or play Hall and Livramento, I dunno. One of the few changes we can make.

Yet again, mistaking negativity for realism and priorities. Honestly, I don't give a shit about being top 4 this year anyway, that will land us with the same issues as this year. Wanting to win a cup is not negative ffs.

It's not like we can rotate though, there is fuck all on the bench. You put kids on against Spurs, we are annihilted, then what? Not good for their or our team morale. We need to change the way we play, not the personnel. How, I don't know. That's Howe's job.

I think this is the benefit of hindsight. I don't recall Trippier being criticised before the first error on this thread, and by then it was too late. Subbing after an error which must have killed him would not help his morale. I mean we can rest him next match but we'll definitely be worse for it imo.

What meaningful change can you make? On paper, every sub bar perhaps Hall just makes us worse. You can tinker around the edges but Howe's hands - and legs - are tied. The season is becoming a bit of a write off league wise. Out away record is just too poor and I just can't see this changing unfortunately unless the club relent and give tbd an honary away pass. Teams like Villa and Liverpool have improved, Brighton, Spurs, City, Arsenal. Even ManU are above us. By Xmas it's too late so unless we get our act together now in our home games anyway. Also, you know, we've lost Pope, that's a big deal. I wasn't impressed by Drubavka at all last night. All in all, this is now a transitionary year after over achieving last year. We've got some amazing players for the future. But let's win a cup this year, League cup will do.

Quarter of a billion pounds spunkedup up the wall on the bat shit Rwanda policy. Not a single person will be transported to Rwanda. As I travel to work on a 40 odd year old metro designed for 30 years service max, I reflect that that is about the money needed to replace the entire fleet.

One positive note. For those of you without SMB accounts, they haven't closed our match thread from their public page for some reason? 1100 well informed and absolutely not bitter posts to read so far. You can't miss it, it's at the top. 👍
