That celebration was deffo to the fans for moaning about him. Sorry Wout that doesn’t save the endless points you have cost us. great header though

Ayew has been absolutely honking

It’s a huge concern that Marti hasn’t done research or watched any of the performances from last season by starting skipp and soumare there is just no excuse. Best case we score one goal and a draw is a horrid result. hopeful seeing the games this weekend and we look mid table at best. What an anti-climax

Because we are bunch of happy clappers. Why most people have renewed their seasons tickets is beggars belief just feeds into the problem

I genuinely have no more words for this club anymore

Need to score asap else this has shef Wed winning all over it

This is an awful start

Probably the worst opening 5 mins I have ever seen us play wtf 🤣 get a grip ffs

the problem from speaking to a lot of people trying to sell is they are struggling to sell their 2 bed terrace because there are loads in the market due to landlords selling up and people going straight into new builds - maybe due to shiny new house and. 5% deposit incentives. I know near me there are so, so many up for sale (Charnwood) my original point was for SOME people they have to take responsibility by making some alternative choices I.e car on finance, eating out a lot, holidays, beers down the pub etc who are in the bracket of 36k+ earnings. Standard foxestalk - This has now been construed by various posters that if you cancel your Netflix subscription and stop your coffee runs to Starbucks you can afford a house because I mentioned those two specifically amongst an exhaustive list. I have never ever, stated that the majority of people should be able to buy a house. I know the struggle for a lot of people. But that isn’t my argument - that is the problem with forums people will pick parts of your argument, and change it to suit a certain narrative. I have no idea how people who earn less than 36k are going to get on the property ladder anytime soon - I’m not disagreeing with that. I genuinely don’t know what can change for that to happen

The broadway - book well in advance they are packed Friday/Saturday

I think you are getting confused or not understanding my original points mac

why do you need more than two bed terrace for your first house? That’s exactly my point (aside for south of Northampton) there are loads of good starter homes for 180k. Are you saying you need at least 200k and more than two bed?

isn’t it 4.5 with some lenders not 4? I know mine was 4.5 when I bought my first house there’s a loads of terraced houses for 180k out there in Leicestershire. That means a 10% deposit means you need to earn £36k based on 4.5 (if single buyer) a lot less if buying with someone else. 36k is very different to 60k - (yes, still not high enough earning for a lot of people) Your first house doesn’t need to be the really nice dream home, that will come in time. I know it’s really hard for a lot of people but I don’t buy the narrative you have be earning 60k+ to even consider getting on the property ladder

Be careful Greg, people will miss quote you about this and say giving up avocado on toast and coffees will get you on the property ladder (satire) - missing the main point of not having a car on finance or going on expensive holidays will HELP towards a house deposit.

I do think the 6 months off is probably needed but I just really don’t want to as you can imagine it seems such a long time. I’m training for a half marathon in October so doing 3 runs a week currently about 24k in total volume not loads but I think I can only cope with 2 runs a week tbh. Writing this as I’m about to start my long run and already nervous at the thought of the shin pain (I’m sure you can relate) I have some ibruprofen gel and deep heat but that will only mask the pain. I do kettle bettle exercise every day with leg on the bench so hopefully that will help and I have bought a foam roller. I have tried increasing my cadence but find it impossible. On my slow runs it’s about 157/160. Which I guess naturally will be less cadence at slower pace. For ref I’m 6ft and I know cadence usually lower for taller people. I have also watched videos suggesting cadence isn’t the be all and end all. Some argue higher cadence more impact on your legs/shins. I really don’t know what’s right/wrong with running - a lot of bro’s online who think they know best

Give it time 🤣 can’t judge on 30 mins of football. Still think saints will get top 2

Is this ref ok

Some iconic visuals from the crowd in that 2 minute drama 🤣

as good shot stopper, but not with his feet. I think this can hopefully improve though!

Buying Skipp for 20 mill and selling Mads for 18 mill makes me want to throw up

we literally don't have an out and out striker who will score loads of goals in this league, we add a a decent striker and we finish top 2 (without points deduction) without signing a striker 7th sounds about right to be fair

I agree with you, but my original comment was about at least trying to save more for people who spend a lot every month and don't have their priorities in order. I wasn't referring people on lower salaries who are also renting and paying bills I know people who have good salaries but don't spend their money wisely - i.e. car on finance instead of owning an older car outright. Then complain they can't save

Yea when you look at average/low age obviously less, if they are living at home and on average wage, say 2 grand after tax? i suppose board parents charge can be anything from £50 to £300a month average? your mates that are living at home, what are they doing with the £1700 left? A big problem is a lot of landlords all selling up because of the renters rights bill and being tax'd on full revenue rather than profit. The renters end up absorbing the cost because of supply and demand. 1/2 bed houses being rented out for £800 - £1000 per month. I think the average rental cost has gone up £400 in the last four years

I think majority of people could maybe save £200 a month if they were really careful on spending (some more, some less obv) thats £2400 a year extra (that's without taking into consideration a car on finance) I drove a car that could get me from a - b a lot of spending 300-400 a month on a new car, for what reason?, average first time terrace house in Leicester? 180/190k? 10% deposit - 18/19k if you are single. Does help. Agree about housing costing a lot more now versus in the 70's where is the 25 years figure from? I dunno, I work hard and earn a good living so there is an incentive to work hard?

nice immature response, don't be bitter about some decent advice. i sacrificed loads and now on the property ladder. Just takes a bit of using your brain 😉
