How about theirs while they're sleeping?

Oh aye, marriage famously gets you laid all the time.

She'd take that bet, then your teeth for her necklace.

I thought Gove was escaping untouched?

What does he want? Couldn't it just be simple revenge? I don't think he's a politician, but I do think he's political.

Only dubious? I'm convinced it's entirely self-serving. Cummings would let London burn if it got him what he wants. Little different to most political people, to be fair.

I think he gave up on the 'climate change is a myth perpetuated by Big Nature' before he left, so that's progress, right? -

Hasn't Texas also just introduced a law against abortions after 6 weeks?

Live together, but they're not married? That's scandalous.

Pretty reasonable in most conversations. -
Yeah, I would be surprised if we sold Wilson and ASM. Wilson is 30 this year and missed 12 games with a recurring hamstring injury. ASM missed 18 games with soft tissue injuries. Both have 3yr+ contracts. The market will be contracted this summer, and Wilson and ASM are gambles, the latter a very expensive gamble. You'd expect Wilson to be valued around £20m, ASM closer to £30m. I'd expect Ashley to demand 50% on top of that. Neither are good enough for the elite clubs who could possibly afford to take that gamble. Both are too expensive for anyone else, realistically.

Aye, they've been pretty careful and have been jabbed twice. Honestly haven't the heart to do anything but encourage them to come. They've only met their grandson twice and he's turning 2 next month. We'd go visit them, but we'd run the risk of seeing my sisters...

Missed this, and cannot be arsed to google and/or ask my folks because neither would give a comprehendible answer. Would this impact Seaton Sluice? My twice-jabbed parents are supposed to come visit this weekend.

I'm not sure those people are remotely interested in 'helping', probably more focused on 'winning'. -
Bruce and his coaches deserve some credit for the post-Brighton form. But the criticism he and they deserve for the pre-Brighton form massively overshadows it. We had 28pts from 29 games, that'd get you 36pts and around 17th in an average PL season. We'd scored 28 goals, conceded 48! Only the bottom 2 clubs had a worse GD. Bruce suggests that the only reason we were in that mess was because we were missing Wilson and ASM. Well Wilson had played 21/28 PL games before Brighton. ASM was available for 16. I'd suggest the reason we were in the shit was because he persisted with an isolated striker, passive low block, disinterested in counter attacks, long after it became clear it wouldn't work. We're in the shit because our defence played like strangers. Because we experimented with a variety of formations that all had the same basic failing; inviting pressure onto a poorly organised defence, with no reliable outball when Saint Maximin wasn't on the pitch. I'm a poncy idiot and even I can see that Bruce had the players available to play the system we ended up with from the off. No, Joelinton isn't as good as Wilson, but he wouldn't have looked half as shit if we'd played this style. Back three, Ritchie and Murphy as wing backs, 2 centre mids, two attacking mids, supporting a striker. Play on the counter and for set pieces.
