Generic small time football blather thread 2015/16
Alex replied to The Fish's topic in Newcastle Forum
I know he's been a big player for Chelsea but there's loads of other things at play there too. I think Kante's made a difference to both teams but you're probably only talking about a couple of league places at Leicester anyway (all other things being equal). It's hard to quantify but you can't just say look at Leicester, look at Chelsea therefore he's the main difference. Well you can, but you'd be wrong -

He's not the single difference between winning the league and being in a relegation fight though. -
Given your massive oversimplification of the voting deomgraphic that's a bit rich

Corbyn takes some of the blame for Brexit too, he could've swayed a close vote with a bit more enthusiasm because, while he's inneffective in terms of being an opposition leader his support amongst young people could've made a difference but he fucked over his party and the country there too.

I was about to say the same, more or less. An absolutely awful result given the both the current circumstances and history in that constituency.
-
I would say they were a decent (as in good) leader away from winning last time round. Under Corbyn they're a million miles away. That's on him and his team.

Been getting right into my rum lately. Perfect for those winter nights.

Had a couple of tots of this last night: Lovely stuff

CT, basically Remember as a kid in places like HMV and basically anything on the Brit Nominated display was like the kiss of death to any band with any pretentions about being cool. Didn't see your Annie Lennox comment. Jinx! She did seem to win it every fucking year like. I think she won it one year when she hadn't even released anything.

Is Annie Lennox still getting the best British female award?

You don't hear Bristols much these days.

You're really selling it to me there like

That was one of the last times I saw it. Funnily enough it stopped going out live after that. Never seen it since I was a kid though. I don't see who it's relevant to tbh.

They should get Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood to do it

All these novelty bets encourage corruption. Probably difficult to outlaw something as difficult to define as a 'novelty bet' but, as you allude to, the bookies have to take some responsibility and apply commonsense. -
Does anyone outside the industry give a fuck about the Brits?

He'd be more up for it too I reckon
-
He is principled though

More caveats than Blaydon and Fop combined tbh
