The Secret Diary of Lee Ryder (aged 44 and a half)

Every native born inhabitant of Tyneside born between 1960 & 1985 has stayed at either Haggerston Castle or the Riverside camp site at Wooler. It’s the law, you don’t get your Geordie passport without getting a stamp from one of them -

There’s always been at least 2/3 million who refuse to work, whatever the circumstances…. https://www.economicshelp.org/blog/780/unemployment/unemployment-rates-history/ If you give a fuck about them, you’ll end up going mad. Most are unemployable anyway. They make fuckin damn sure they’re unemployable too. What employer wants an overgrown manchild giving bullshit excuses for not turning in that even a 14 year old school boy would be embarrassed to roll out? For anyone who wants to join the “GET THE DOLE WALLERS TO DRIVE THE HGVS” brigade that seem very vocal on socials at the moment, give me a policy on how to achieve that? What’s the enforceable plan which would get through Parliament? Don’t get me wrong, I think that’s coming in some form, seeing as whale spunk boy has just vomited this into the ether today https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/ex-convicts-could-ease-labour-shortages-says-dominic-raab-0vp2zjwtb. But where is the money coming from to train convicts or malingerers to pass an HGV test or training for other sectors which are facing huge post Brexit recruitment issues (ie every sector)? How about a windfall tax on CoL profits? Oh..we’re doing away with things like that too? as @ewerk pointed out the other day https://www.ft.com/content/359dee15-5e78-4b3c-a305-55da827fbb52 So that’s the giant tax haven in our capital city that every medium scale crook to literal international gangsters like Trump launder their fuckin loot through getting a tax cut but we’re all supposed to do as The Sun & The Daily Mail tell us and blame the feckless useless wanker round the corner because he’s claimed his kids school uniform on his exes? Folks, we’re being had. As @spongebob toonpants & @Monkeys Fist have said, know your enemy..

9.5k UK deaths from Covid since July 17th ie “freedom day”… do 9.5k die from flu in 3 months from summer into autumn in a normal flu year?… Oh and this….it’s ok folks, you can’t catch Covid in the workplace from colleagues apparently 😒

Spurs had a DoF called Baldini when they sold Bale to Real... as far as I can make out he wasted the fuckin lot, including a ludicrous amount of money for a player who might have been Eric Lamela(?) from his previous club Roma.... basically depends if the club & its recruitment team are operating in good faith and not stuffing cash into agents back pockets for players that aren't in any way good enough or appropriate for the clubs needs. See the Joelinton deal for instance...that sort of shit could happen with or without a DoF, and the club doesn't progress regardless of the set up...

Turned Spurs down due to “tax reasons”

Jamie Redknapp’s brother Mark rents one of Eddie Howe’s homes… Harry Redknapp is a bit of a mentor to Howe….signed him as a player for Pompey.. Jamie & Harry known to be on very friendly terms indeed with Jamie Reuben.. Wether this means that Howe is Reuben’s choice for our new coach & it is him feeding stuff to the press eg this https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/eddie-howe-discussions-newcastle-steve-25244816 is impossible to say but it all sort of fits… #southcoastmags/sandbanksmafia

No, no and no. Read ewerk's post where he compares Chelsea & Spurs managerial processes from last season and then tell us we should just sack Bruce. Even fuckin Ashley didn't sack Allardyce or Hughton without having someone lined up. If it's going to be a double appointment of DoF & coach then that will take time. Chill out. Rafa didn't win till the first week in November in 2018 and we pissed staying up...

Listen folks, this is what happened the last time we sacked a manager without having a successor in place ready to go….might I suggest ignoring the perfornative wankers on sky and having some patience with the people who were taken by surprise at the speed of events as much as we were the week before last?

4 attacks in 22 years, 3 deaths including the right hand man of the MP for Cheltenham who protected his boss in 2000. Stephen Timms nearly died too when someone attacked him with a samurai sword. If this was the US we wouldn’t be surprised and we don’t seem that surprised this afternoon tbh, but that record is horrific. I was familiar with him, seemed a decent fellah and lots of his colleagues say he was a really good laugh regardless of what party they’re from….
