If you had kids you went to one wage and there was no option, it wasn't a choice, and yes we survived but it was not easy. You'd think it was idyllic the way you're going on. Yes wages were higher in relative terms and stuff was cheaper and yes money went further largely because there was fuck all to spend it on and it was ONLY spent on necessities. Things only started to ease up a bit when the kids were in school. If there's anything to blame it's the suppression of wages and ballooned corporate profits WAY before some group of people who happened to be born/raised at a certain time. Not everyone (in fact few) had the benefit of providing kids with a silver spoon upbringing like yours.

Because you had to, there was no option, get married, have kids it was like "the unwritten law" or expectation of society and it was not easy. You're finding it hard, well here's a shock so did I, and my peers, BUT you get through it, We never once thought "oooh this is hard", no-one did, we just on with it as best we could, it's only looking back you realise how actually shit and hard it was, but I've never blamed anyone for it.

I have no issue with much of that, but that highlighted bit is laughable. If nowt else look at child mortality rates. Christ, if you generalised about ethnic minorities the way you generalise "boomers" you'd be perfect for Reform. This whole "generations" thing is yet more divisive bollocks invented to get folks worked up and divided about something, just in case there's nothing else working to keep the angst bubbling. It's quite frankly pathetic. It's basically slagging someone off because of the year they were born, an event over which they had no control. Those 1975-ers are well dodgy mind.

You said complacent for 4 minutes after half time, which is what I responded too, nowt about first half. Gordon wasn't complacent anyway, he was cowardly dogshit.

We weren't complacent, our keeper kicked us in the balls, if it'd been a well worked goal followed by another you'd have a point but Pope basically shot us in the head.

I can get to the attachments but the only option I have with them is to view or download, no delete option that I can see.
