    That's good news - but your profile pic still REALLY disturbs me.

    [Politics] General Election 2024 - 4th July

    I think you are right, but Corbyn almost won in 2017 (and probably would have done if he had been fully supported by the rest of the Labour Party). His leadership then didn't result in a landslide defeat. Far from it. In fact, there was a massive surge in Labour membership, particularly amongst...

    I was lucky to see them in some small venues early on, but when I first saw them on a bigger stage you just couldn't hear her vocals at all - and her lyrics are such a key thing for me.

    My picks from Wideawake were similar to yours - thought Slowdive and Squid were excellent - and the Talking Heads tribute at the end just a superb way to end the day (although some tracks worked better than others). Also loved The Itch (kind of political early 80s-sounding indie funk) and New...

    I quite liked C Turtles - bit of a 90s slacker vibe thing going on, as I recall...

    Are you coming to Krankenfest? They are on the line-up.

    I don't think anyone can really criticise Danny Murphy on Talk Sport saying it's a gamble - it is, a huge one. But luckily we have someone in charge who is rather good at gambling...

    Are you sure it wasn't STEVE EVANS?

    [News] Dr Michael Mosley - RIP 09/06/2024

    There was a case a couple of years ago of a woman going for a walk on her own in Greece and being attacked and eaten by wild dogs/wolves. Incredibly grim. I can't help thinking it might have happened again, but surely unlikely. Really hope he's found safe and well - I've always liked the fella.

    [Albion] Hurzeler or Rydstrom [Potter rules himself out]

    I don't think it was them 'taking the RDZ decision'. It was a mutual thing. More that RDZ didn't get what he wanted (ie more say in selecting potential transfers, big enough budget so he could take things forward/win trophies). I am gutted that RDZ left but I think it was just one of those...

    [Albion] Hurzeler or Rydstrom [Potter rules himself out]

    Seriously tho, how have they messed up? If McKenna didn't want to come there's not much we can do about it. Or are you referring to RDZ leaving?

    Should Labour voters in Clacton vote Tory to stop Farage? Seems it's the only way it could happen. https://pollingreport.uk/articles/survation-farage-w-ill-win-clacton

    [Football] Clubs to Vote on VAR removal

    Indeed. Also, it's the one thing that was never over-analysed in forensic detail by pundits before. If it was clear, yes, but not if it was extremely marginal - the assessment would be it was 'too close to call' - the player 'may have been' offside. Because we didn't have the nonsense with the...

    [Football] Clubs to Vote on VAR removal

    That still happens with VAR. Do you really think those five decisions that went against us at Spurs the other season would have been given if we were at home to Bournemouth? Football is meant to be a spontaneous game. To examine every decision in forensic detail sucks all the joy out of it. As...

    [Politics] Starmer v Sunak *** Official Match Thread ***

    Exactly. I'd previously worked for MGN/Mirror Group - part of Maxwell's organisation, and I remember going to the presentation about joining their pension scheme. I decided against it, which was the right decision as everyone subsequently lost their pension savings. So when I moved to my new...

    [Politics] Starmer v Sunak *** Official Match Thread ***

    I wish they'd made company pensions mandatory much earlier. Made a huge mistake by not opting in to mine when it was optional. The worst thing about it was they had a stupid rule where you could only join as a new starter at the company. After you'd been there a month or whatever, you weren't...

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    Exactly the same could be said in reverse of Lamie's comment above: Allegedly a Corbyn follower as well …that’ll surprise a few …..but I’d go with your reading of the ‘incident’ Allegedly Reform, allegedly a Corbynite. This is where we're at.
