Two planets meet up for a chat. Planet A says: “How are you?”
Planet B says, “Not so well, I’ve got a bad case of Homo Sapiens”
“Don’t worry,” says Planet A, “I had the same once. They won’t last long.”2 users thanked author for this post.
Good stuff DM, white man’s blues. Sounds like a sedated John Cooper Clarke.

Really, all these candidates sound off about how bad everything is, and how badly change is needed (sorry AWG – change is a-comin’) like they’ve just arrived from planet Pluto, when they’ve been at the heart of government for the last 10 years or more! It’s as bad as PS and the club.
DM – the Truss piece could be in here – about pork to China. Note the primary school teacher faces for those who have trouble understanding words.

True, the opposition does need to ensure it appeals to a broad enough swathe of the population to get the Tories out. Trouble is, many voters are quite barmy, to put it mildly. For example, here we are in north Lincs, one of the poorest areas of the country, and where so many folk depend on the state in one way or another; for benefits, credits, for health, for transport, for pensions, for social support and protection of all kinds. And wherever they look they can see what a calamitously underfunded state everything’s in. And what do they do? They vote for a clown-car of a party dedicated to shrinking the state and to privatisation, and instead worry about kids in dinghies and about the EU. Why? Because they’ve been told they are the problem, not the bunch of %$£*& in Westminster and Downing St.

Astonishing! But not surprising.

It’s easy to manipulate people when they can’t understand a complex argument. Politics and religion feed on this.
It’s even easier for politicians if you can use social media, fake accounts and advertising to bluff them into supporting for example Brexit, or Trump.Finding a new Tory leader? Like trying to find a clean toilet at Glastonbury.

Maybe imagined it, I swear I’ve read numerous times, posters on Bru of a certain persuasion having publicly met each other before? Could be evil forces playing with my mind tank of course
Particularly the doppelgangers…

Non football – is it a discussion forum about recent performances?

At the High Court he was better in the box than Vardy.

True, IA, it’s been hard for Rory but I’m still not convinced about him. For me, he’s let in a lot of goals he should have saved, he doesn’t seem to martial his defence well, and his carelessness over not bringing a cap to the match at Sutton showed inexperience, too.
Like the rest of the team, the lad’s confidence is probably shot. The atmosphere here must be toxic after years of decline, and anyone staying on next season will carry that burden with them. Most are best away, for their own good – or it’ll feel like post-war Ukraine!
A total clear-out of the first team, and a fresh start with new manager and players, is what’s needed.
Starting with the keeper. Why? Because at nil-nil, you start the game with a point, so if you can avoid conceding, you’ll finish it with a point, too. OK, it’s stating the obvious, but the keeper is number one for a reason. A good keeper will also martial the back line, and give them confidence. Look at the keepers we’ve had here in recent years and the effect it’s had on the outfield.
It’s always easier to stop goals than score them, so, after the keeper, build the defence, particularly with good centre-back(s). Why? Because it’s another key position covering a vulnerable area – in the middle.
Just check the current league table. You don’t need to score lots of goals to be high up, but you DO need to be tight at the back. Northampton (4th) have only scored 7 more goals than Oldham. But, guess why Oldham are struggling… So, if you have the those positions well covered on a regular basis, plus a half-decent midfield and forwards, you should be on your way to 55 points a season. When was the last time we had that?

Stockport are mid-table in the league below, yet tonight they were magnificent – intensity, flair, team spirit and talent. Plus, a decent ground and fantastic fans. If if we drop out it’s hard to see how the club will get back anytime soon.

Staffy seemed confident that the 50:50 would be here for Swindon game but wasn’t sure if he’d be given a card reader or accepting cash!
Think he’s been given his cards, unfortunately.
