The thing is, we are a small island. A small island, that has always had migration. The difference now it, that social media massively highlights this. I was suspecting a reform clean sweep. I think a lot of it is, people are rebelling against the Conservatives still and the disastrous start that Labour are perceived to have had. Reform has become a viable third option for a large number of people, as like you say, the issues that are constantly portrayed, have an underlining notion that is tied back to “people coming over on boats”, who have a different culture.

What did you do?

I missed a virtual meeting last week as I was working from home and totally forgot about it. I decided to take my lunch break later, ans I’d been back to back all day, so decided to have 30 minutes and have a cheeky game of Fortnite. I was down to the final 10 and realised as people kept phoning me to find out where I was. I’d totally forgotten this other meeting. I’m in charge, so I “was stuck on another call on one of my other phones”.

I was a graduate for a large machinery manufacturer in the early 00s. I sent something to Mexico, instead of the US by mistake on a RORO boat. But that alone cost us about £20k. That in itself sound “that bad” but it was worth around £3m I couldn’t then get it re-exported, so I had to sort road transport from Mexico to Texas which came at another expensive cost. This took weeks and the customer was telling me he was losing 1000’s $$$$’s per day. All in all, all was forgotten as I was a good egg and generally the only person able to use a PC, as I changed everything to excel / email, to stop the reliance on a bloody fax machine!!!

He’s the new Zoumana Bakayogo / Michael Ball. Fullback that we sign, see once and will never play again!

I can’t really argue with this. His career was basically all downhill as well after that 14 second delay.

It depends what type of football we are intending to play. At the moment, I think we’ll run with Daka.

Crazy that really.

He needs Winks, as he can play in those tight spaces. It invites the oppression press and with better options, you can surpass it and break. Vestergaard is also in this ilk. They’re specialist players that fit a system. Even to a degree Faes fits into this. I mean, would you want to pass a ball into the feet of Soumare or Ndidi? The challenge we’ve had, is that once teams figured out that they only needed to mark Winks, he gets overloaded, as he’s passing to duffers, you know the ball is coming straight back. People might not like Winks, Vestergaard etc, however if we’d have adopt a ball retention with quick counter attacks to break the press with fast wingers, we’d have been much better this season. This also relied on having quick wingers and we signed Ayew and Reid for some unbelievable reason. We might have been better playing Daka on the wing once Fatawu got injured, as he played in that role for Salzburg. Even signing people like Dan James, Tom Fellows, Ben Doak, Morgan Whittaker or Josh Murphy would have allowed us to have a bloody outlet. The defence has buckled under constant pressure as they’re not good enough to constantly defend when the opposition have the ball, we needed to retain it more. Easier said than done I know, against better opposition this season. This leans to Hermansens goal getting peppered constantly. No goalkeeper that has ever lived is going to keep a clean sheet with that amount of pressure. He’s similar to Ederson in that he’s a competent goalkeeper but is a good ball player (for a goalkeeper). We are a mess as Cooper wasn’t on the same mould of coach as Maresca, so we ended us purchasing players that didn’t support the specialist players we have. Bottom line is, all of this has exposed Hermansen, however he’ll be gone in the summer for £20 - £25m.

To be honest, it’s the fans that are ostriches that are the issue.

No idea, he could smash a lovely cross in though.

How many did we take the Pope away?

I take it you haven’t had the pleasure of going this season then, or the last relegation season to witness the spectacular “Danny Ward”?

Is it even a debate any more, Peter Taylor or Ruud Van Nistelcrap?

@Collymore have you been on the ale today my friend! 😂

Slimani actually co tributes something whilst he was here at least. He was misused by the club and couldn’t get in front of Vardy. Musa we got our money back. However, Silva, Soumare, Ward, Amartey, Kristiansen and friggin Tete!

Having watch the highlights, I agree with you.

Happy Clappers not liking people call out how shite we’ve been all season?

THAT LINE UP IS SHOCKING THOUGH

I’ve not even bothered today. I’ve gone to IKEA in Nottingham instead. I knew we’d lose and I no longer care how bad it gets this season.

I know it won’t be a popular opinion, however I know he’s our greatest ever player. I just hope within my lifetime, someone else eclipses him.

I think it’s just the way Tom Hardy delivers his lines. I’ve laughed a few times.

I’m enjoying mobland. For anyone unfamiliar, it’s sort of Gangs Of London, with Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, Joanna Froggart, Helen Mirren and Paddy Considine.
