  1. Even if Huddersfield win their game in hand, we're 4 points clear. Despite the disappointing result, we moved further away today.
  2. This sounds interesting and i'll give it a listen later. That said he sounds right. The only thing I'd add is that the realities of what people are voting 'for' aren't perhaps as important as the surrounding narratives.
  3. Nicely done. What's your endgame? Tweeting your findings to Wikileaks?
  4. Hang on, catch me up a bit here cos I've stuck with this without fully understanding what it is you're doing. What has this newsource done wrong, in your view?
  5. No, but it is what he was hired for.
  6. I don't think he will full stop. He looks like this is already getting to him. If he wins the CL with City in the next couple of years then I'm happy to eat my words, but I suspect he'll fail because actually, he's not good enough to do it in the limited amount of time he'll get (and I question if he's mentally strong enough to stay long enough to do it also). Inherited great teams at Barcelona and Bayern and made them invincible. Takes a lot of skill to do that, but he's coming from much further back with City.
  7. True. I should clarify. He won't win the CL with City while playing that way. EDIT - FWIW I hope he doesn't change; they're a great side to watch at the moment.
  8. He's blind to defensive frailty though. He's come out and blamed their attack for them going out. Their attack that scored six goals over two legs. He has a touch of Keegan (as he was believed to be, at least) about him. Attacking relentlessly. I imagine City fans are loving the style but he's not going to win the CL that way, which is why this will end badly IMO.
  9. I'd say Shearer but only saw the tail end of Beardsley's career so not sure I can compare fully.
  10. Which politician came out with that?
  11. Next executive order will be to expel Hawaii from the US.
  12. I have to say mind, even in Brazil, I'm amazed he's about to walk back into football.
  13. Yes, sorry - It's not the main story on it obviously, it's just the football writers having a go at it. The main article was less frivolous.
  14. Finally. Here's the story though - it's actually really grim, and unbelievable that the guy is out of prison on a technicality. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/mar/10/bruno-goalkeeper-murder-brazil-comeback
  15. If he had been released, do you think they would have picked him back up again? I'm guessing that the news about that Brazilian goalkeeper, Bruno, getting back into football after arranging for the murder of his girlfriend has been discussed somewhere on here and that I've missed it, but I thought that was pretty incredible also. Something like that happening over here would be totally inconceivable.
  16. Hadn't realised Sunderland were 6 points adrift of safety now... Surely that's it for them. RTG seems to think it is.
  17. Yep, this farce has gone on long enough now. I'm not really sure what Corbyn thinks he can achieve from here, or what he's staying for.
  18. Actually impressed (a bit) tbf...
  19. Wtf is going on here Adios the investigative journalist?
  20. I would have said that UKIP covers all of them, but apparently they're now falling apart as Aaron Banks has taken his ball and gone home - and he's going to make a new party for the less intellectually endowed in the UK: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/mar/14/ukip-donor-arron-banks-says-he-has-quit-party-to-set-up-ukip-20 He's going to set up a second UKIP apparently Fucking idiot.
  21. I think Scotland will find it difficult but they'll be able to do to the UK what May has threatened to do to Europe. Lower corp. tax, make themselves a tax haven.
  22. I meant the UK paying for it, not the whole thing
  23. Agreed. Can't imagine there would be much opposition to such a move outside of people like UKIP anyway.
