    The Jeremy Corbyn thread

    Also the more accurate polling company in the GE with an error of 1%. I posted it because of the selective posting of polls which is prominent here. Labour have come down in voting intention, but you're wrong about 7/8+ ratings being the norm. First of all, there's not been many polls, so to...

    The Jeremy Corbyn thread

    The poorest performing party (given the context) seems to be the Lib Dems. Despite the apparent shambles of the two main parties, they can't convince many to want to vote for them.

    [Technology] They landed it on the ship this time

    This is the Falcon 9, which they've successfully recovered many times before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Falcon_9_and_Falcon_Heavy_launches In fact, during the 'Roadster' launch, they successfully recovered two Falcon 9 side boosters (that amazing twin landing we saw). It was the...

    [Albion] Are you OK with TB’s long term ambitions for the Albion?

    Here's what CG said about a Sky Sports interview after the game last week: https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/showthread.php?363942-Tony-Bloom-Feet-on-the-ground All sounds very sensible to me.

    [Albion] Are you OK with TB’s long term ambitions for the Albion?

    I didn't see it but I'm glad you've clarified the situation. Absolutely no reason why we should have given Toure a 'guard of honour', and it would have been pretty tinpot to have done so. He would have loved it though - if you can recall, he considered leaving City a few years ago when he felt...

    [Albion] Are you OK with TB’s long term ambitions for the Albion?

    Your representation of the situation has changed slightly since the 'TB fans forum' thread, where you said this: It seems to me that TB is simply being pragmatic since the main aim of most PL teams is to stay up. We'd require some serious investment to become a team which could think...

    [Football] King and Queen for the Iiverpool game

    I think she said "Brighton Kop" supporters not "club".

    [Football] Best PL away fans at the Amex

    Depends on what you mean by 'best'. In terms of noise, I thought Coventry fans were pretty disappointing tbh. I recall a Coventry fan on the train saying the same. They had a few brief periods where they were noisy, but it didn't go on for long. No chants about their owners either, which was a...

    [Misc] Declining journalism/editing standards on BBC website...

    I just saw this particularly newsworthy article (not) on the BBC Football website: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/44075226 It's also being promoted on the front page of the BBC News website: To top it off, Pascal Gross was initially called Christian Gross (now corrected). Declining...

    [Albion] Yaya

    He wouldn't fit into our team at all - not exactly known for his hard work. Not that we'd have a chance of getting him, anyway.

    [Football] Ooooh, new Nike kit to be worn at match TONIGHT

    I think it's probably less to do with laziness and more to do with profit margins - I'd imagine mass producing the same kind of kit is cheaper.

    [Albion] Wenger departure could damage Dunk hopes

    Of course. The main reason Bozza posts these articles is because they are affiliate links, creating revenue for NSC. An absolutely nothing article.

    [Football] Swans v Saints

    Damn - I would hoping Southampton would go down. Huddersfield to get a point in one of their two remaining matches, and there to be a 9/10 GD swing between Southampton and Swansea on the final day (both at home, against Man City and Stoke respectively) - there's still hope?

    [Football] Barcelona v Real Madrid

    Now I think about it, there was also a Barca player (Alba?) who had his hand around Modric's throat in the first half - that could have been a red too.

    [Football] Barcelona v Real Madrid

    Bale's foul was never a red. It was a somewhat reckless attempt to try and get the ball with the Barca player shielding it out of play, but it wasn't intentional, in which case it would have been a red. As someone else said, Messi's was more worthy of a red, because of the clear intent, although...

    [Football] Barcelona v Real Madrid

    What a terrible refereeing performance. Bale should have been booked before he was. Varane's leg was taken out by Suarez in the build up to Messi's goal. And Madrid denied a clear pen for a foul on Marcelo.

    [Football] Please remain in your seats so that...

    Indeed - was going to comment on this myself. Obviously those scarfs and Cardiff's weren't produced by either club - they were produced by opportunistic street traders trying to make a quick buck. Probably lost a few quid last season!
