I think it's a formula they work to, and one of the big factors is something like the average of the last three months of wholesale gas prices. It'll take a rethink in the way the cap works to do anything about it. They should be bringing a proper tax on the energy companies in October. Hopefully that's on the agenda.

Good lads Brighton. 1 nil v Man United. Fletch has already been telling us about the last time Man United won their first two games of the season, so he might have to rethink today's script.

Still shite to hear you've got people close to you that will be struggling though, triple lock or not.

Who hopes Palace get relegated and Guehi leaves on a free?
Gemmill replied to Kid Dynamite's topic in Newcastle Forum
I'd be really surprised if Guehi signs a contract extension at Palace. He'll be 26 when his contract runs out, if his career continues on a similar trajectory, that will be his big money free signing move. -

Gemmill replied to Kid Dynamite's topic in Newcastle Forum
Ignore what Guehi says and the fact they're making him captain. He's captain cos Andersen has gone and cos it's part of Parrish's stage management. That doesn't make me think the deal is off or anything. -
If he goes out onto the pitch and does a full Hulk-O-mania Hulk-up routine, tearing off his top to reveal an NUFC shirt, I guarantee that you and him will win Pride of Britain awards.

Wow. What is going on with you lot? I dint see any hate. Sometimes there will be bad news about NUFC and it will be journalists' jobs to report it. It doesn't mean they're having a wank while they do it. Very odd behaviour.

I think the concern is that only a fraction of those that are entitled to pension credits actually know they're entitled to pension credits. So they're missing out on that, AND they'll miss out on the WFA as a result. Labour's job now is to go all out with an ad campaign to make sure that there's a.big uptick in those getting pension credits, to ensure the WFA thing doesn't affect the worst off. The triple lock has just resulted in an 8.5% increase in pensions in April though, following on from a 10.1% increase in April 2023. Pensioners are being protected by that. I'm not saying there won't be people made worse off by this that can't really afford to be made worse off, but I don't think just blanket handing out the WFA to ALL pensioners is the answer either. You're handing it to some incredibly wealthy people who won't even notice it hit their bank account.

I actually don't know. My mam probably is, my dad probably isn't.

I was listening to Tim Montgomerie saying that he has friends that use their winter fuel allowance every year to buy a really nice bottle of wine for themselves. There'll be LOADS of people that absolutely don't need it. As long as they ensure that everyone that should get pension credits, gets pension credits, then I don't have a problem with it at all.

Rutter, Gray, Summerville and Sinisterra, all better than Clark, and all have left Leeds for more money than Clark is going for. So he's at least moved up 4 spots in the Literally the Best Player in the League chart recently.

I think he's generally alright tbh. It's not exactly outrageous to think that losing the captaincy might have put Trippier's nose out of joint.

This has just flipped today. They've both had 1 in 2 chance, Trump has now dropped to 40%.

"It was a Hail Mary move to try and get @thebrokendoll back onside", said Eales, unknowingly undoing any progress he had made with the disgruntled Toontastic poster by his use of the phrase "Hail Mary".

No wonder they're still employing Jenas.

Is Lascelles still captain of the canteen, do we know?
-
It's odd for Howe to decide to announce that he's not a starter anymore and strip him of the captaincy. I wouldn't be surprised if he's pissed off at what happened last season where off-field shit of Trippier's own making led to a significant drop off in his on field performances. Not exactly the example you want your captain to set to the rest of the squad. I can also understand Trippier deciding to leave under those circumstances though.
