    [Politics] General Election 2024 - 4th July

    If he is calling it now then it can only be because that this is as good as its going to get over next 6 months. He will claim inflation is coming down (aka the speed prices go up is slowing) Rwanda is sorted (they have a law, but only one person has left and that was having been paid off) No...

    [News] Post Office Scandal -

    I once worked on a programme that isn't on anybody 's CV. There are people who would rather claim to have been in prison for the 3yrs it was running. I also had someone apply to me for a job claiming he had done my job on a major programme. It's true, failure is an orphan and success has many...

    [Politics] General Election 2024 - 4th July

    It's from when parliament sits after an election. Which was mid jan 2020 as election took place after the christmas recess would have started. So without fixed term parliament act, the PM can call an election any time up to 5 years from the 1st sitting of the last parliament

    [Albion] Worst moment of the season?

    I am basing this on games I actually attended but Fulham away 3-0 as could see how inert (one for the old hands on here) we were and would be Rome away - may favourite city in the world but failure to dig in at 2 nil (yes appreciate dodgy offside etc) showed a mental weakness I thought we had...

    [Misc] Worst holiday you’ve ever been on

    One got molested at the gold souk and we ended up bundling her into a cab via the back door of a shop (the shopkeeper locked us in the back room to protect her) with men banging the door. Then locals accused a bloke in our group of having unlawful contact with a woman who wasn't his wife as he...

    [Misc] Worst holiday you’ve ever been on

    Apart from corsica all my other French trips have been great. As for dubai and vegas. I'm lucky to have had 2 trips to vegas and both were much better than expected if the can see through the mask of the place. Dubai however was everything wrong. Again went on a work trip and lots of horrible...

    [Misc] Worst holiday you’ve ever been on

    Corsica! Beaches beautiful, some wonderful architecture. Locals who make man utd fans seem friendly and welcoming Should have guessed when driving to the villa and seeing any roadsign in French peppered with gunshot to the point of being illegible. First restaurant we went to I tried...

    [Football] The cup final

    So if city win then chelsea go into europa league and Newcastle into conference? If utd win, they get europa league and chelsea to conference with Newcastle missing out. For that reason I want city to win. Chelsea won't win europa league (poch the bottler will strike again). Newcastle may win...

    [Albion] Deniz Undav - season long loan to Stuttgart confirmed

    What RDZ wanted from strikers is very different from the way others ask for. Having said which, undav was still effective in that model. Bit a new manager may want something different. Welbeck, ferguson, undav, pedro will all be on a new learning curve.

    [Albion] RDZ goodbye speech in full.

    I think there are two extreme positions bring presented and I suspect the reality is somewhere in between. We could all see the gaps last summer and jan and I'm.not sure it would have taken fortunes to fix it. But it would have been a different mix Of course bloom is well within his rights to...

    [Albion] Igor , Dahoud and Fati. What an absolute waste of money.

    At 29yrs old when signing for Luton Barkley is I suspect, the kind of player RDZ would have wanted but wouldn't have fitted the model. As Andy Naylor has written, our focus is u24 and over 32. The 25 to 31s isn't where we normally recruit from.

    [Albion] Igor , Dahoud and Fati. What an absolute waste of money.

    I think Igor cost around the same as locadia and ali j did (c17m) For that we have a prem league standard reserve defender who has had to play full back due to injuries often. He was 25 when we signed him so a little older than our normal targets but on a vfm basis I think he is ok. It's easy...

    [Albion] Does football need more De Zerbis or more Barbers?

    I was surprised by the reaction. Having looked here and social media last 24 hrs I expected people to be grateful but not 'backing' him. The chant wasn't what I expected and the look at the directors box it wasn't what they expected either. I thought his speech showed class.
