That is a fake argument. The MPs elect the leadership candidates and they can only vote for who is standing. The rank and file vote for whoever the MPs offer up to them. My guess is that the rank and file of the tories may favour white males more than the rank and file of the Labour party...

I think you're right about the parties. Not so sure about the rank and file. I'm a Labour party member and the candidate lists for the national executive positions have few people I'd leap to support, and quite a few who have only recently dropped their support for Corbyn and have yet to embrace...

Probably futile arguing with you if one does not 'know' Italian footballs, since you seem to study the European leagues in some detail. Here is Napoli's most recent starting eleven.

Is that when, apparently, 2,000 experimental caviar baps went up in smoke? All receipts list in the inferno.

Best 11, you say? ??? :wink: We are all perhaps not quite sure what is happening at the club, after a window where we spent more money than any club. In the world. I am thinking that the owner and team realize that we need a big squad of first team types if we are going to be able to play in...

I didn't know that. It would have been far too expensive for me to consider back in the day. Sounds like slow food for the cognoscenti to me. Am I right?

If I could have a table somewhere at the ground, without the need to queue, with a nice menu choice (just three mains options would suffice) I'd be there 2 hours before KO. But anyone who thinks they can eat a 'meal' at half time in a crowded football stadium is deluded. A fast food snack...

Saddens me to see that. Not because of nostalgia. But because it was all so shit.

Bang to rights. Coat on and taxi ordered. :wink:

Correct. Also by 60 minutes the 80s team would have run out of puff. And if they tried playing according to the mores of the time they'd be down to 8 men after 15 minutes. In other news, questions have been asked whether if my old mum had had a cock and balls, would she of been my dad?

Let's transport ourselves back to the good old days of The Goldstone where, at half time, you could buy.......errrr (consults detailed historical records)......that's it! f*** all! I buy a steak and ale pie at half time quite regularly now, depending on KO time and whim. Absolutely fine. If I...

Changing my mind.

Bit harsh on those whose lives took them away from the cutting edge of music as the events of life unfolded. I would imagine I am fortunate to have had the time to keep exploring over the last 20 years. But even I had a hiatus of nearly 10 years when my son was a kid. I completely missed out on...

Made a meal of that Wordle 1,212 4/6 ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟨⬜ ⬜🟩🟩⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Cocked up tally table.....will fix... Edit - discovered I removed a 4 about 8 games ago in random twattery. Lucky my trail of calumny is captured in this thread. Corrected current tallies:

Go on, you know you want to :lolol:

I got an infraction once. Won't say who from, but I went to his wedding! (Bang to rights, I was, too.)

Mmmmm...... Machines were mice and men were lions once upon a time But now that its the opposite its twice upon a time... Hurting organs, killing feelings Kill my feelings, kill them all more a cross between Moondog and Eskil Simonsson

Something Charles Mansony?

Far far too many choices. I will post just the one.
