In regards to @Eric the meek I'm confused about how else to interpret your narrative to be honest, you may have to explain it to me. From my point of view you are saying that people stuck in crap jobs at the bottom of the ladder are blaming immigrants as a cop out because they can't be bothered...
I've read the discussion, your contributions and I stand by my points. You fundamentally fail to understand that for some people it's quite hard to move on from crap work or to easily find a job after bing made unemployed 8 times. Irregardless of 'getting it' or 'helping themselves'. You seem to...
You suggested that people who blame foreigners for their own low wages should simply skill up and make more money. This is a fundamentally privileged and flawed viewpoint that you somehow think becomes acceptable when you create a fictional bogeyman from Burnley to direct it at. It's that kind...
You have to admit this is a very callous and simplistic view of people stuck in crap jobs. It's not one that I think you would stand by in a different context which is why it doesn't make much sense to me at all. You seem to think if someone blames mass immigration they're fair game for being...
I'm not sure how my point has gone so far over your head. It's hard for poor people to improve their situation. Saying people in crap jobs "should do something about it" is verbatim a Tory argument for disregarding people who rely on benefits or food banks. My point was It's stupid in that...
Hilarious that supposedly left wing people become Torys the moment they have to justify mass immigration. "If you're unhappy with your lot simply get a better paying job". Imagine if this was said in the context of food banks or benefits 🤔
There's a difference between leaving your club in the close season to go to a different country and leaving your club 6 games into a season to go to another club you were actively competing with.
When I think of the way Potter was when he was first here, I actually have some good feelings about him returning. He was humble, good-natured and strangley endearing at times. I like the idea of that Potter coming back, doing well, and making up for how he left us.
But then I think about how...
How many other clubs sold a world class Midfield partnership for over £150 million, signed a kid and a freebie to replace them, and then asked their manager to do more than the previous season?
RDZ has left. You don't think there's a decent chance Denis was willing to come back to play under him and now isn't because he has no idea who the new manager will be?
With a much better medical team, good young players returning from loan, our current first team youngsters maturing more, experience working within the setup already gained and 8 less European games next season there is no reason Potter should not finish a fair bit higher than we did this season.
