Maybe but you have to factor in how much money it will take to move us from where we are, to roughly where Spurs are. That said, you would need to compare against what she would need to spend on Spurs to take them up a level too. The thing is, they're not far off being able to do that anyway. They could hit that level without significant further investment. We probably can't. So the price of our club is likely to be £400m + £250m to make us real challengers, possibly more. If the price of Spurs is £650m, then she already has a club at the level that we would aspire to be at.

Ok. That being the case, presumably you would castigate those who told you that it was going to be a roaring success? Equally of course, if it turns out to be all bikinis and speedboats, metaphorically or literally speaking, I suppose we should come out and admit that we were wrong too.

I think we're at risk of making Staveley into something she isn't here. She's a very wealthy, probably Tory voting, financier. She will have no interest in us beyond the financial. Everything else is window dressing. That's even assuming she is in fact remotely interested in us.

The most positive Brexit story for me is the fact that it appears to have shattered the Tories.

Moving away from the speculation - if it becomes clear that the situation is as shit as we think it will be, would you back a second referendum to turn it around?

Nice! Will give that a try, thanks.

And you're right about pvp. There's no stake in it. It doesn't even really matter if you win or lose IMO.

I know what you mean. I've not been playing this game as my sole focus which has improved it's longevity for me, but I do wonder what people are supposed to do once they hit 305. Start a new character I suppose. It's a good game but waiting 8 weeks for the next content drop is a bit of a killer.

Yeah i don't think the price tag will put them off, but spurs would doubtless be a better option for immediate success.

Sounds like a good evening! The garden and the final boss are the two rooms of the raid I've done. Not been online for completion of the other two bits. Garden is hard! In my case because half our team was incompetent How did you get on with the nightfall? Took us 4 attempts, although we would have managed it on the third if one of our number hasn't accidentally disconnected halfway through the boss fight.

Completed nightfall and am now 302. Had about 3 mins left at the end which was kinda annoying cos I still need the rat king done...

Is the club liable or is it the individuals? I actually don't know in truth, but if it's the former then the deals are off.

Ffs, is this the kind of thing we could get penalised for in footballing senses? Also likely to kill off any interest in the club in the short term i would've thought. I fucking hate Charnley.

More proof of the coming of the inevitable from the Legatum Institute here (a thinktank committed to the principle of free enterprise / Neoliberalism). Even Tory voting British people think we should be nationalising public services... http://www.li.com/activities/publications/public-opinion-in-the-post-brexit-era-economic-attitudes-in-modern-britain

Huh... fair enough then I guess. Still seems a bit off, but maybe I just like a good whinge at Sky.

Nice! I'm hoping to get over 300 this week tbh, especially with the Raid to complete and benefit from. I need a regular team for the Nightfalls I think - getting there with that though. I can't do them well with randoms, it's too hit and miss.

What are they going to do then? How are they going to balance this? They're actively choosing to generate less state income by pursuing Brexit, so surely the only option left is to save? Or to go full Corbyn and borrow to invest.

Fully agree - there'll be nothing left for Labour to save. Fucking Tories. Incompetent and Irresponsible. We'll have years of slowly slogging ourselves back to the point we just abandoned, while the world moves on and evolves around us. It is so infuriating...

More austerity then. I mean, the Tories have literally nowhere to go here. They have to go for more austerity, which is the prime reason we're leaving the EU anyway. So they'll hammer services, the NHS, the poor and the vulnerable, because it's the only way to make Brexit stick. It's the reckoning that all those who voted for Brexit deserve in some senses. Exactly what they were warned would happen by none other than George fucking Osborne. This will inevitably mean Labour will get in.

Just thinking to myself - what if the Tories gave up on Brexit and campaigned for a second referendum - and Labour stuck with it. What would the Daily Mail do?

Sky are planning to schedule our away game against West Ham on Christmas Eve. 560 mile round trip, the day before Christmas. How long before we have live football on Christmas day, I wonder. https://www.theguardian.com/media/blog/2017/oct/05/premier-league-christmas-eve-west-ham-newcastle-arsenal-liverpool-sky-sports

Also worth a watch in there is the video someone posted in the thread of the two ironman runners who literally have to crawl over the finish line

I bet you guys have it done before 3 weeks have passed though.

I'm pretty sure a competent team can do it in a night Don't read anything into my clan's struggles. Tbf to them, as I said, their second run took them 3 hours.

Ok so, I've reached 299 now. Our clan has completed the raid in 3 hours this week, so it seems they've settled on a capable team now. I've got a slot for a run on Saturday. Anyone done the nightfall this week yet?
