Re: In other news
Might be one of them cases that leads to a change in Laws/procedure? It sounds from the summaries I've read that he agreed with a prosecutor that if he testified in the civil case against him he would be immune from criminal prosecution for the same offense... If that was what they did then whoever...

Re: Takeover talk
Maybe they don’t want other clubs to know. As it could especially have an effect with signing players as clubs will know we either have the money, or don’t. Are clubs going to accept bids from us for their players anyway with add ons after how we struggled to pay Frankfurt for Haller? I don't belie...

Re: Vladimír Coufal signs
Graza, in most lines of work the most senior people are paid the most not the most talented or hard working I never said I thought Coufal shouldn't be paid more, just the blanket statement for all industries was b*llocks thats all. Football really shouldn't be lazily linked to all other jobs While ...

Re: Vladimír Coufal signs
Lovely... Not always the in "any line of work" though. Which was the point... In most lines of work the best workers will normally be able to leave and go to another company to get a pay rise if there isn't anything on offer at their current employer. Are there some industries where you a...

Re: Declan Rice
WTF is the purpose of a contract in football? It means that a player has to be purchased rather than leaving for nothing. Also that the player gets paid... Increasing wages for Rice and getting an extra year or two on his contract makes sense from that perspective. He has the financial incentive to...

Re: Next Labour Leader

Re: Match #43/R16: England 2-0 Germany (5pm, Tuesday 29th June)
This sideways/backwards possession stuff is what all the top international teams have been doing against for us years. We would constantly complain about the fact we couldn’t keep the ball like Italy/Germany/Spain etc. Now we are actually doing that people still complain about how boring it is. Sum...

Re: Match #43/R16: England 2-0 Germany (5pm, Tuesday 29th June)
There's a world of difference between reasonable disagreement like yours and calling the manager a coward/gutless or accusing him or serving up turgid football. As he said himself last night, he was ****ed if that team selection didn't work. That's not the actions of a coward. I'm sure the coward/g...

Re: Match #43/R16: England vs Germany (5pm, Tuesday 29th June)
Southgate saying how good we were is embarrassing. We were better than them that’s all. We were ok. Germany are a shadow of themselves. If only he would take the handbrake off this squad and let them play. We were boring as all hell, but by doing that we stopped them playing, we stopped them being ...

Re: Match #43/R16: England vs Germany (5pm, Tuesday 29th June)
4 games...none conceded. Pickford has been brilliant. He's made some quality interventions. Nothing properly stellar but given that he's had not a lot to do what he has had he's been spot on. As a player who has been known to have a ricket in him it's impressive that he's done what he's done. We gr...

I've cracked a bottle of scotch and will not be turning on the camera on my meetings from here on out.

The fallout was always going to be proportionally larger here. The EU was the UK's largest trading partner. The UK was and is not the EU's largest trading partner. Proportionally for sure. The trade deficit was of course mentioned constantly because it is a real concern for the EU. We may not be th...

Re: Match #43/R16: England vs Germany (5pm, Tuesday 29th June)
Does anyone really care if we play badly and win? I completely get it when you're playing a 38 game season because you've got time to implement a style of football. Southgate has 7 proper games maximum every two years. If we beat the Germans off the backside of Rice and win 1-0 then quite frankly I...

1) If you don't have a minimum wage, where is the evidence that wages would set themselves above that level? If you remove it, do you think wages will rise/fall/remain the same? Absolutely not.

Re: Match #43/R16: England vs Germany (5pm, Tuesday 29th June)
Maguire is our best defender, harsh on Mings but at least we know he's a competent back up. Anyone else getting nervous already? Can't really concentrate with work. Ming's was among our best players on the first two games. Didn't look out of place at all and I'll admit I was less than enthused that...
