    [News] Carillion...what would you have done?

    Without charge? I never mentioned about charging them, but of course there would be a charge - it would effectively be a nationalised administration. Sorry, I should have been clearer, I meant the miners. Not Labour MPs.

    [News] Carillion...what would you have done?

    I'm shocking when it comes to Prime Ministers names prior to Thatcher. I think it's clear there wasn't any plans, also - would if have been possibly to plan? These men were manual labourers and the economy during Thatchers' time moved towards services, huge disparity in skill required. I suppose...

    [Albion] Kenedy from Chelsea

    What's worse is this inference that "If they ain't good enough for them, they ain't good enough for us". Mo Salah..

    [News] Carillion...what would you have done?

    Ah, I remember the days of A level politics and being told of the evils the Tories did during the 80s. Conveniently, we only found out about the Winter of Discontent because the text book we were using used it to illustrate Labour's failures - tutor of course told us to skip that section. I...

    [News] Carillion...what would you have done?

    Didn’t Callaghan close more mines than the tories?

    Dwight Gayle

    Worth a punt if he's cheap enough, should he get injured but scores a few vital goals - money well spent.

    [Albion] Ze Luis - offer rejected

    Hope he leaves and leaves a nice newspaper advert saying сука ебать, иди нахуй to the fans as he leaves.

    [Misc] B. Tapestry - Loan Signing From France

    Getting on a bit though ain't he?

    Sod it, can we just sign Mario Balotelli and have some fun

    Would certainly be an explosive signing.

    [Albion] Ighalo ex Watford striker.....

    If we don't remove Tony Bloom from the helm, I fear for our direction - his secrecy is destroying our club.

    [News] Carillion...what would you have done?

    I would want to know what Carillion said the government after their first few profit warnings, because the government would surely have needed reassurances on their financial state. I would also want to know if the government had an insurance on the projects, like a business disruption...

    [Albion] Why just throwing money at a striker may not be the answer that some think it will be

    Okay, so maybe throwing £500k a week is a little bit OTT, but £420k maybe affordable.

    [Football] Discuss our current strategy for defending corners....

    Knocky on back post, he wins every duel and then some.

    Chop Suey - SOAD And she better have big tits to shake.

    [Albion] Ighalo ex Watford striker.....

    Are you on a personal mission to increase your post count by simply starting threads? But on topic, I didn't realise there was rumours linking us to him. Only rumours we've been rejected :facepalm:

    [Football] Carillion on the brink ?

    Poor management, Carillion wouldn't have cash to pay for its projects so would borrow to pay for those projects. The chances are, market conditions went against them, it all sounds a bit like Monarch and management not adapting to the changing landscape.

    [Albion] Promotion to the PL was worth £200M, or so we kept being reminded.....

    :facepalm: another missing the point and fallacious arguing otherwise. Your inference is that we didn't get him because of our pay structure.....jesus wept. That's not the point. OP was stating we didn't invest, whether they were played or not is not the point.

    [Albion] Promotion to the PL was worth £200M, or so we kept being reminded.....

    It was invested in the squad, we spent £45m on 3 players and put a bid in for £23m for a striker..
