Call of Duty 4. That and falling in falling in love with Bruno Berner.

Clean sheet second half. Ruud in!

Did the club acknowledge it? I can't imagine them letting it happen?

I must be missing a joke here but did Smithies win the fans player of the season award in the last relegation season?

It's been all but confirmed for a couple of months TBF.

Worth lumping a load into a global tracker now for a recovery, or is there further to fall?

I do actually. My Mum, and one of my close friends both claim PIP, so whilst I don't have first hand experience, I have experience of it. I know that, in principle, that is what PIP is designed for, however I don't think this is the reality. I'd happily take your opinion on both cases: 1) My Mum. She had to give up her job about 4-5 years ago due to progression of her MS. She is now not physically able to do the work she had done for the past 20 years. She is now in her late 50s and in receipt of PIP. Her and my Dad (who is retiring in 2 years) are financially comfortable. They have joint finances. If you tally up their home, assets, pensions and savings/investments, they're totalling around about £1 million net worth. Therefore, whilst fully entitled, and incurring costs due to her disability (attending appointments, adaptations to her car, etc), expensive shoes to support her walking, she really doesn't need state support to help pay for these things. Should she receive PIP? It's debatable. This is a grey area for me, but it certainly seems something ripe for cuts if the Government has to find savings somewhere, i.e. make it means tested. 2) My friend. He is partially sited. He works full time and has done for his entire life. His disability does not really effect him day to day, and it does not cause him any additional costs. He works for the NHS, so uses the Park & Ride bus for free each day to get to and from work. He spends his PIP money on gaming and PC hardware as this is his passion. He openly admits that he doesn't really understand why he's entitled to benefits, but he isn't going to "pass up free money", and who could blame him? For him, PIP is like a compensatory benefit for being partially blind, rather than being a lifeline to help him afford things to aid his life. As I said, I'd happily welcome your thoughts. It's certainly a difficult subject to address, very emotive, and hard to find the balance legislation wise.

I think the Government needs to go even further with cutting PIP. It absolutely should be means tested at the very least. The way it's set up is like compensation for being disabled, rather than being in any way being designed to cover extra costs incurred by the disability. £5bn is nothing really against the huge and ever rising welfare bill.

I'd rather watch Faes curling one out on the Mrs' tits.

Good result tonight. Won £50 on bets and had Bruno as Captain on FPL. Lovely.

At this point I hope we keep him till the end of the season - I'd genuinely like to see him become statistically the worst ever PL manager (discounting any caretaker who managed 1 or 2 games). The neutrals are right. We should have kept Cooper. We'd probably still be down but at least it wouldn't have been embarrassing.

Daka looks like Ali Dia 😂

Clinton Morrison calling him out on the BBC live text at least.

Me and my Dad will account for 2 empty seats tonight. Not reselling them. If it was a reasonable KO time we'd probably not go but for a Sunday evening you'd have to pay us. 0-3

I've been on it for about 10 weeks now. It has helped me tremendously with my anxiety. In terms of my mood, I'd say the improvements are much more modest. It's leveled me out, I wouldn't say I feel much happier, but I no longer get the crushing lows I used to.

That moment when he mis kicked the ball into the air then somehow gave away a foul had me in stitches tbf

It's impossible to objectively compare this season, when we're right in the thick of it, to some of the horrendous seasons we've had in the past that were 10, 20, 30+ years ago. However, despite being in lower leagues with worse players, I personally have never felt so disconnected from the football club I once loved. It's absolutely rotten to the core.

Really? Romped to 3-0 up and are now coasting.

I'm almost home. Quite a few of us left at HT Brentford fans were loving it outside the ground, taking the right piss. Fair play.

Let's hope that's JJ out for the season. Just need somebody to push Wout down some stairs now and we might have a slim hope.

What a result that is. I didn't see that coming!

That's Everton safe then.

He'll bag the winner for Sheff Utd next season when we play them I'm sure.

Good airing today.

The fans have finally started to show some backbone and show their anger with the club.
