It's the former

That and the fact that we're only in this position because Benitez landed in his and Ashley's lap. We're that not the case then who knows where we might've been. Which of course begs the question as to where we'll be in 5 years time (or 4 years after Benitez leaves at the end of his current contract, which seems quite likely).

That's kind of the point though. It happens to an extent on political shows like Newsnight but on a lot more mainstream shows statements go unchallenged.

Exception that proves the rule tbh

I was teasing a bit with my previous replies although only a bit and stand by almost all of what I said.

Never said that. This is the sort of manipulation of the facts that I’m talking about

It’s become a joke and your parroting cliches only serves to back that up

Aye but one side has a go at them when they report something factual while the other is concerned about the lack of scrutiny and the blatant ignoring of information which is pertinent to the debate

No surprise CT is a massive Trump fan who buys into all the associated propaganda though, is it?

You really have to worry about what people will believe given the way they've lapped the shit that Gove, Johnson, Farage and co have fed them. Little or no accountability from the press/media bar on the fringes (in relative terms). You'd expect that from The Sun and The Mail but the BBC? Incredible really. The levels of contempt for anyone questioning 'the will of the people' is quite chilling at times. It already feels a bit like it's too late

Why do we always bat first given the choice in these situations? Also, the leftfield idea of having Bairstow open might as well have been implemented

This country makes me sick at times

The BBC have done a fucking appalling job with regard to the facts like. Completely hand in glove with the government

I'm often amazed there are officials at all for Sunday League games when you witness the levels of abuse

Needs to be free on those days to conduct stadium tours.

That reply oozes irony

They're all gold but the one living in Malta takes the biscuit.

It's all about taking back control of your pelvic floor

I meant her fanny drips

Actually, I can well believe Denise Welch oozes
