  1. Aside from the standard point about how concerning it is for 'religious faith' to guide decision making, she could not look less energetic and confident if she tried. I have a question that I've been mulling over for a while for some of the older members on here I guess - I was first politically conscious during the Blair years, and while I don't agree with a lot of what he achieved, I think it's impossible to consider him as anything other than a very capable politician and a statesman. Brown was not quite as strong for me, but still good. Since then, we've had people leading the parties who looks worlds away from the same level of capabilities (both Tories and Labour) on those fronts. Was Blair a one off or has our political class been bottomed out?
  2. Presumably this is all about the recount in Wisconsin. He should be backing this like nobodies business, its his get out of jail free card.
  3. He stayed quite a bit longer than I thought he would mind... But yeah it's a good post. Pardew is actually very consistent, it would seem.
  4. Playing it now it is fun! Better now they've improved Suez.
  5. Nah he definitely is. It just makes way too much sense. When he talks about middle class trappings and the decor in his living rooms, he's actually just parodying us Brits and our hoity-toity ways And to think we thought someone would seriously suggest using frozen grapes to chill wine
  6. Can we change his Member icon so it's the same as OTF's? That would clear up a lot of this confusion.
  7. The Fish is Australian? Actually that explains a lot, surprised it never occurred to me before now. I bet he knows Ken irl. G'day, Fish!
  8. Makes you think he actually could do a job for England based on that. Given that the FA seem to be attempting to moderate expectations and broadly kill any sentimental attachment people have to the team, Pardew would be a perfect fit.
  9. The radio commentary mentioned it was kneed back to him and apparently that's allowed. Just can't be the foot.
  10. If he stopped forcing himself into the papers, no one would even give a fuck about him.
  11. Well we can't win them all, and the 5 point cushion makes this easier to swallow. If we win at Hull, I'll accept that this was the price of doing so.
  12. Doesn't sound like very much is coming off, although we've got a whole half yet so it's hardly a worry at this point. Hopefully Rafa can reinvigorate them for next half.
  13. Isn't that what we were to Ashley? At least initially. Maybe we're luckier than we think with him in charge though.
  14. Sounds a good shout. As much as I hope Burnley surprise them it seems doubtful. Decent effort by them so far though.
  15. True, would be very conceivable for them to go down. And aye, they've developed a small club mentality. The championship really is a graveyard of 'big' clubs. Glad we only seem to dip in and out.
  16. Yeah I think those people who were making out that Guardiola was going to breeze the PL will be finding this season to be eye opening.
  17. So how come there aren't mass protests about the venky family like in the Steve keane era? Blackburn don't look like they'll ever come back up to me in fairness. Too small a team to compete. But that said, I'm still surprised that their supporters have put up with this.
  18. Wonder how Trump will do for those sorts of lies.
  19. The latter. Because IF I was Phelan, I'd be mindful of the fact that Hull barely have 10 outfield players to their name, and can't afford to take risks.
  20. That would be special. And I'm pretty fucking sure we can turn Hull over ffs. They've got bigger fish to fry anyway.
