Interesting account from a photographer covering the Euro 24 tournament in Germany https://www.jamesgillmedia.com/blog/euro2024

MPH’s son is 32

There’s literally been Greenpeace action at refineries, supply ships, oil rigs, and oil company head offices for decades - but the fact you’re ignorant to it proves how fvcking pointless it was.

Give them more time.

Soup costs a bloody fortune these days. I hope to god they didn't use a Big Soup, that would be too elitist.

Bloke has less of a brain than Reagan did.

This Town was quite good but tapered off. Still worth six episodes of your time tho.

Great thread.

I want to have a relationship with Michelle Keegan, create memories and make beautiful babies. There’s loads of things I'm working on, it’s a challenging job. One I’m committed to.

Could be worse. Could be the Covid thread.

Also in good news, our taxi driver to the airport looked the dead spit of Arthur Mitchell, the Trinity Killer, from Dexter...but I was not thrown from a building or murdered in a bath, so he probably wasn't Arthur Mitchell, the Trinity Killer, from Dexter. Actually, thinking about it, that's probably bad news for a lot of people. It is good news for me though.

You forgot to point out that we played in League 1 once too and should be grateful for things and stuff.

Like an octogenarian with restricted breathing holding a rubber knife.

Bason? Challenge the club? I love the humour on this site.

I'm getting bored with Tories shitting themselves in public and smearing the faeces over their faces on live TV...and I've only been exposed to this over the last 24hrs.

Yep, he's one of our extensive injury list - which is why we (inexplicably manage to) keep signing more players.

Bason was masturbating as he wrote that.

Because we used to play in Midland Football League, apparently.

The only decent Tory left in the rancid party has resigned

Telford might need to have a pitch inspection...

I'd have respected them if he'd held his hands up, admitted he just doesn't have what it takes, and resigned during the press conference. Everything else is fudge and delusion. I've no time for people who can't be honest about their own shortcomings.

Yep, there's that. I was simply replying briefly to MPH to explain why staff don't leave - the biggest one being they still enjoy the teaching aspect, it's everything else that is now a complete shag. Traditionally, the only alternatives offered up to teaching staff were either book sales rep, cold calling schools and enjoying virtually zero commission as a result, or placement officer for a supply teaching agency - another post with next to no prospects and minimal job fulfilment (leading to high turnover). It used to be easier when LEAs existed and offered up a wealth of education-related roles. Social service roles are now being promoted harder to teachers as an option to build on pastoral experience (in the past the hoop to jump was in flames, lined with razor blades and had social workers squirting acid at teachers trying to navigate the jump). The downside is that social services are now in as bad a state as education and offer equal stresses - thereby offering little incentive to swap. The best alternative for disaffected staff IMO is to teach abroad. Some regions such as the Middle East offer ridiculously good packages and the quality of life far exceeds anything UK staff experience. British and international schools abroad are growing in huge numbers now, there's a huge range of options.

Maybe it's just that everyone at the club knows how irrelevant and box ticking it is.
