Though it's perhaps worth noting that the amount of success a Prime Minister has in office appears to be inversely proportional to the degree to which you approve of their appointment

Had to look that up. Looks great

Walked past Gotham Town quite recently and I was amazed it was still open. Not been in for about 15 years and it looks like it hasn't been cleaned let alone redecorated in that time.

Rafa's heroic hunks v the Islington guardianista cunts

I like Khan. He’s had a pretty good career but I just don’t see where he goes from here. Probably a knock out defeat to Kell Brook. Now he’s settled on welterweight he’s kidding himself if he thinks he’s going to do well in the division. There’s at least 5 fighters better than him (especially him now) in what is a particularly competitive weight class

When you’ve got an owner with no interest in moving the club forward and a manager unlikely to stay beyond this season then there’s a real danger of apathy setting in amongst the players. Given we rely so much on well drilled discipline and team work to eke out results it could make all the difference in terms of staying up. Relegation is what the owner deserves like -

Why's he getting fucking airtime on BBC Breakfast though?

I struggled to watch more than about 30 seconds of his blatant lies tbh. I'd also struggle to spend that much time in one of his establishments

Handy for causing them

The Weatherspoons bloke seems to think a no deal scenario will be fine because it will allow free trade so I wouldn't worry

I just think saying Mitrovic is in form and scoring therefore letting him go was a mistake (which appears to be the crux of your argument, unless I've missed something) is a simplification of a situation which most other people on here seemed to have grasped is a lot more nuanced than that. As for the irrational obsession you're claiming, prior to this I can't actually remember the last time I disagreed with you about something on here. I did a quick search and nothing came up. No doubt we'll have had some disagreements but I couldn't find anything in recent months. Which is pretty much what I would have expected because we have very little in common and, consequently, most of what you post is of no interest to me.

They've got good spin options too (as you would expect).

Good chance India will win in Australia this winter. They'll have a bowling attack arguably as good as Australia's and the latter won't have Warner or Smith available.

That's kind of the point I've been making. I don't think it was as tight as some pundits have suggested because we consistently outperformed the opposition (in 4 matches in a 5 test series). And especially when the pressure was on and when it really mattered. If it had been the other way around the same people would be having a right go. It's a weird English trait. Outplay the number side in the world in 4 out of 5 games (two of which were pretty one-sided victories) and it was somehow closer than the scoreline suggests. If Australia had done it to us it would be a case of them being ruthless and England not having the bottle in the crucial moments. I know Vaughan says it was more like a 3-2 but the question I'd ask is - which test that India lost did they actually deserve to win? They could have won the two close tests but they didn't because they weren't good enough when it mattered.
