apologies to everyone, It’s my dad’s fault. He said this would happen over his dead body. He was alive in 1990 And 2016!

I think Pino is going to come good He finds space, the final ball will come but it’s harder to teach finding space than the final ball -

As I think Parish did the right thing in the decisions that ultimately upset Glasner Also the page before was several posts about how Parish should go for letting Glasner go.

I think the thing is this: what do you do when your manager says he’s going to be leaving in October? At that point, you’ve got to be concerned about the effect on the entire season, because you know that all the signings you make in January have to be for next season. They did back him in the...

If Burnham gets parachuted in, then surely to God there has to be a general election. Its one thing changing leader, its another parachuting in someone who wasn't on the ballot at the last election. Mind you who do you vote for in the election. I've seen a greater array of political talents...

If you look at his managerial history, he’s generally been successful early on wherever he’s gone. He comes in, lifts the place, gets everyone pulling together, creates momentum and belief, and usually delivers results quite quickly. But equally, by seasons two to three, things do tend to...

There’s been a noticeable rise in VAT fraud over the past year, and part of the issue is how the system now works. When a business registers for VAT, the confirmation and key details are sent out by post as a VAT certificate and no longer on an online account. Those letters contain everything...

To be fair, Royal Mail Staff don’t exactly help themselves at times. I run a small business, and the last time there was a strike, our postie came round the day before it started with all the “sorry we missed you” cards already filled out. No attempt to deliver anything, just a pre-emptive...

The BBC have him on their front page - have a look, It’s almost like not everyone experiences things the same as you.

RIP. Rumour has it he died wearing Julian Speroni pyjamas. Another genuine legend gone.

In terms of crap footballers, I’ll give you Itzik Zohar. 97–98. We didn’t win a home game until about April or May, There was a home game against Southampton F.C - I think it was Boxing Day. Palace got a penalty near the end of the game - and the home win was in sight. Now Zohar is a man...

As that would have deviated from 3-4-2-1. I reckon OG couldn’t stop at a threesome. He’d immediately try to turn it into a foursome, then somehow end up back with his wife, and finally finish the evening solo wondering where the tactics went wrong.

I think Glasner’s a bit of a one-trick pony in terms of the system he sets up, and also in terms of the pattern you see wherever he goes. It’s almost the same story every time. He comes in, things click for a season or two, the system works, results are good and everyone’s happy. Then eventually...

You’ve got to respect Glasner’s adherence to a system. No matter the opposition. if Glasner was in charge of the apocalypse - the Four Horsemen wouldn’t get a look in, not without a3 behind and 2 & 1 in front of them anyway

I reckon a manager who doesn’t come out and tell the bench they are crap may be a good start It’s like when Holloway was in charge and the senior pros took it on themseleves in getting into the playoffs Holloway was magnanimous enough to realise he was part of the issue. I don’t think Glasner...

It’s rotting from the inside out. He’s got to go as the players look unmotivated.

24 Hours in Police Custody - episode "sweating under caution"

It wasn’t just 2.5%. It was an extra 2.5% on everything but also an additional £4100 x 15% as she lowered the amount it starts being paid at for a minimum wage worker it was £983 a year - around 4.1%. On top of a 9% minimum wage rise - so that’s 13% in one hit Currys can stand that -...

Stock Market may be up - that's by and large irrelevant to smaller businesses. But since we are quoting numbers - unemployment is up, roles available is down. For the record I'm not defending the Tories - they were s*** and didn't understand small business either. But just because they were...

Lies, damn lies and statistics. The reality out there is very different - I work in accountancy and things are slowing. The hiring is slowing massively and AI is taking over jobs. There is a massive bump in the road coming and it isn't going to be pretty.
