Sounds like the perfect preparation for another term in charge.

Why does civil unrest over issues like this always result in looting? What the hell has stealing from shops ( ruining the livelihoods of innocent people ) got to do with street protests? It just seems that it is the perfect cover for those predisposed to break the law to help themselves. In...

In the early days of lockdown, these sort of things started springing up....... 1) Some unknown family performing a musical tribute to lockdown/NHS to be swiftly followed by orgasmic reactions from tv presenters. 2) Some unknown individual performing a herculean athletic feat around their house...

Surely you set your immigration targets by the ability of your infrastructure to cope with increased numbers. You have to try and evaluate the quality of life you want your citizens to enjoy. Look at the school/hospital/surgery/prison etc building programme and evaluate accordingly. Talk to...

Gerry Fell ....... I think.

Pathetic thread, clearly posted to stir up the usual response from the usual suspects, with clearly too much time on their hands.

His job hasn't allowed him to rest and recover fully. Its a pig of a situation at present. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. The easiest thing to do is to criticise and pick holes in everything. Every country around the world is dealing with an unknown enemy. It hasn't stopped many using...

Leaving the EU trading bloc still occupies a lot of minds, clearly, but in the light of current affairs, to state that ' hard lessons will be learnt ' begs the question..." what hard lessons are we all not learning right now? " Facing the biggest economic crisis in living memory, an unforeseen...

Now there is a man who died in very suspicious circumstances.

The Tories were on their last legs and Major won by default, really. I thought Smith was one of the most impressive politicians in my lifetime and given the chance, would have been a very good PM. Blair may have emerged as a high flyer but not as a future PM. Smith's death was tragic and coupled...

Be interesting to see what happens if one club is forced to pull out of any fixtures because of ' squad isolation ' as has already happened in Germany with Dynamo Dresden. Will these games still be played at a later date? Or if one or more clubs feels unable to participate due to any particular...

It doesn't matter what is going on in the world, if people can score ' political points ' they will. Some attitudes are so ingrained that the slightest bit of bad news and grim statistic that comes out is fuel for the fire. If a global pandemic cannot create ' temporary unity ' against a common...

Not so sure myself. I can't see vast numbers and neither can industry experts. Many will not want to fly. There is a lot of caution around. Sure, I see the ones out and about who don't really give a flying fig but they are a very,very small minority. Finance plays a part as well. Lots are having...

Agreed. Football will never have a better chance to step off the rollercoaster, take a deep breath, look at itself and realise that it has created its own monster. This situation will show whether football feels it has a duty of care to all of its industry or whether elitism/protectionism/greed...

Only problem with tourist ' hot spots ' in Europe ( e.g Italy and Spain ) is that very few people are going to go there in 2020, apart from their own nationals. All industry experts are saying that this sector will be severely depressed for 2-3 years. I understand the desperation of these...

Likely to be Garden Centres and Nurseries first. ( May 7th ) No other changes until beginning of June. Forms of lockdown and social distancing with us until at least end of March 21.

Remember thinking that £400k was a lot of money for both Robbo and Gordon Smith, when we signed them both in 1980. At the end of that first season, they had scored 32 goals between them, with Robbo's share being 22. No one could have wished for a more genuine, whole hearted player. He ran his...
