I speak as a local govt officer for a northern lower tier council (accepting this is only my opinion). His plan to be grow the vote has succeeded exponentially, but I fear many coerced candidates will wake up in the morning fearing wtf have they done. For the hours you need to put in the...

If? The fact is the govt inherited an absolute shitshow and have laid down an early marker which why might have not been popular as it needed time which obviously the public have voted against with their feet. Farage has exploited the unpopular start to a labour govt and now finds himself in an...

Exactly this. Floods of reports of candidates saying they weren’t into politics 2 months ago plunged into running and now find themselves as councillors with zero experience. Blind voting by the public puts them in positions they didn’t want as they just wanted to draw attention to a party to...

I’d rank the Gruda cushioned header over the Gomez cross, Marginally

I live way oop north so don’t get to many home games probably about 20 in total but many more aways. Ironically tho of the first set of five listed I was at 1, 2 and 5 in that list plus the St Patrick’s day massacre, Wigan, WBA first prem game and AEK just to address the imbalance! Stats of me...

A bit of an older person response here. Since Covid I’ve vowed not to wear school shoes (or (uniform) to work again but have some Clarks brogues that last for donkeys. They’ll do for interviews and funerals. Otherwise I’ve got Merrells for everyday walking, you just can’t go wrong

What you talking about Willis?

Was looking for a thread in him. Absolute class today #baller

Have you considered the 6am flight from Manchester to Beziers (£20) then train to Marseille? I’m northern based (Morecambe), really 50/50 on this, it’s just getting back I’m trying to get my head round…..

Would be a hellish long day but there’s a 05:55 Manchester-Beziers flight which is about a 2 hour train journey away. Then fly back from MRS. Will prob wait to see if I’ve got a chance of tickets before making my mind up on the ‘gamble’ home…..

We’ve stayed the at Düsseldorf Hauptbahnhof Ibis which you don’t even need to exit the station for. As a base I couldn’t recommend it enough, perfect for flying into Düsseldorf and a great hub for the whole of the region. Just looked on booking.com and it’s £61/night for a twin/double room...

Great thread this. Been to a few, so I’ll throw in a couple of recommendations…. Porto, decent city, cheap to get to and not too far to Braga (ground with the rock faces) easy train links. Germany, echo everything said before. Transport is so efficient, defo North Rhine-Westphalia region as...

That’s surely reserved for Lallana?

500 miles Replace Bella Emberg with Tariq Lamptey (also works with Neal Maupay so maybe a combo?)

What I love is that even when he had a streak of not scoring he was still managing to get shots on target. There’s been some pretty smart saves to stop him adding to that tally. Try 500 miles by the proclaimers - swap the da da da bit with Neal Maupay!

Any northerners/scotch folk driving down southbound the M6 to the game tomorrow? Note that the M6 is closed J33-J32 (Lancaster - Preston). The diversion is down the adjacent A6 so there will be major delays....

Went last year. Flew to Split (1 night) then got ferry to Dubrovnik (2 nights). Next a short hop into Montenegro for a night in Kotor and 2 in Budva before flying back from Tivat - cheap as chips on easyJet. If I was to go again I would defo spend some time on the islands and prob take in the...

Summat like..... From Withdean to Wembley Everywhere we go Blocking shots and scoring goals Dunk is one of our own Dunk is one of our own

Yeah we’re staying in Düsseldorf - have you got any tips for beer and sausage? I’m not sure I’m going to like Altbier but I’ll give it a go, more of a lager man myself! :)
