    Not having seen it it sounds more like pointing out that championing a percentage with this many games to play and so many teams and factors involved is rather pointless (but then so is most punditry) as it will change so frequently. I like the statistical analysis from games after the fact, but it needs to be consumed along with the match itself. Not a fan of the win loss draw percentages that they now put up in each match and with each goal scored. It really doesn't add any value.

    Yeah. I thought it was a bit tongue in cheek and a reference to how one or two results can have a massive impact in the odds at this stage. 

  2. She’s a bit like Johnson where she lacks any real ideology and it’s just about gaining power for its own sake. But she doesn’t have the charm (not that I find that cunt charming, but you know what I mean) or the social background to carry it off. People just see straight through her. Then there’s the very real financial pain for millions of people which she’s directly responsible for.

    She's in a safe seat and is unfathomably popular with the party members so don't rule her out as returning as leader. I would literally piss myself laughing if this happens. 

    Edit: I honestly don't get how she blames "the left" for her budget disaster when it was the markets that reacted to it and caused the bonds to collapse. She literally cut out "lefty" organisations such as the OBR and OFR when she did this. It's cost me a fucking fortune.

    Aye. I think I mentioned before this that I could see her back as leader given she’s going to be one of the few recognisable Tory faces who is still an MP of the polls are even close to being correct. The members are mostly middle aged / old men who fancy her. Which was enough last time. As Sonatine points out she’s loopy, but so are the members

    "Lots of economists" think Truss had the right plan for the economy and also people on the street when she's out canvassing tell her she did the right thing. 

     

    She's an absolute gift to Labour this one. 

     

    Also "It's a smear....... It's a smear......" with this vacant look on her face. Is she on meds or booze here? 

     

     

    Gaslighting. But she’s even ineffective at that

    Does this mean that they now need to set up an Academy for the women's team as well? If it does, that will be great for the young lasses from the area who have potential and want to pursue that as a potential career.

    Not sure re the requirements tbh but I am sure they will anyway. They were already the only full time professional club in their division. Which is the third tier split into a north and south league. So they’ll now go into the championship,  just one below the WSL. Two things I say about women’s sport - it looks amateurish when it’s played by amateurs. And it’s worth the extra investment because a lot of lasses stop playing team sports when they leave school. And like you say, an actual path to professionalism and a football career for more locals can only be a good thing too

    Why, I want Villa to win so Arsenal blow the league.

    Aye. I don’t see us getting CL anyway. I also think Villa getting CL is better for us in the long term than Spurs getting back in next season. 

  7. I like how he’s just invented these scenarios and then convinced himself it’s just a matter of time until it’s uncovered with massive ramifications. I suppose it’s a bit like convincing yourself you used to be as good at football as one of the best midfielders in the premier league.

    they’re literally backing the two proxies Israel is fighting 

     

    I don’t even really blame Hamas directly for the October 7 attack. They’re just the puppets. It was Iran pulling the strings. It can all be traced back to Iran/Saudi tensions. Iran wants Israel to become a pariah and weren’t going to stand for an Israeli alliance with the Saudis, so they’ve already achieved their goals to an extent. At what cost, fuck knows 

    Agree with all that, plus Netanyahu possibly wanting / needing this to continue even longer, to play to his base. Again - at what cost?

    They'd sing Jimmy Savile's name if he was getting them 10 goals a season. There'd also be way more dickheads turning up to the match dressed as sheikhs if they got bought out by the Saudis. 

     

    Being too classy for owners that will never want them is all they've got left. 

    You’ve been sportswashed, marra. Next you’ll be trying to tell us the Guggenheim is better than the national glass centre was
