    Houchen loses in court

    The only thing that surprises me about Ben Houchen is that there are still people willing to defend him and praise the 'job' he's doing. Both the Airport and Freeport have haemorrhaged millions of pounds of public money, with little transparency and plenty of deals that stand scrutiny, how can...

    Sunak - Is Just unbelievable

    As a father I can't begin to imagine the pain and suffering that Esther Ghey is currently experiencing, it would be crass of me or anyone else to suggest that because we share the experience and privilege parenthood that we have any idea the emotions that the loss of a child in such a tragic and...

    Sunak - Is Just unbelievable

    It's easy to be tone deaf when you live in an echo chamber at the top of an ivory tower, this is a further example of how out of touch Sunak is with the general public and our behavioural norms. The House of Commons needs to look at the baying and braying of its members and adopt more...

    She's Back!

    Whilst everybody is distracted as this mindless puppet dances to her political demise on a floodlit stage the real focus of attention should be on who is pulling the strings and why ? A splinter group of Johnson supporters who are prepared to sabotage any chances of winning this election with...

    Tom Glover reminds me a lot of .....

    A curate's egg of a performance, he did the difficult things well and some of the easy things badly, rode his luck on a couple of occasions but kept a clean sheet. I personally like a keeper to be clean with his handling rather than spectacular with his saves, I think it puts the defence on the...

    The Carabao Cup distraction will cost us points

    In three of our last four promotion seasons we have reached the semi final, been runners up and reached the quarter final of the League Cup which would indicate that a good League cup run has a positive rather than negative impact on league position.

    Should Boris go to jail?

    I wondered at the time why deaths were recorded as with Covid and not of Covid, I'm now of the opinion that it was a deliberate ploy to stop retrospective prosecutions, it's harder to prove a death was caused by negligence if the certificate shows with instead of of.

    Just been watching BJ lying under oath.

    In the case of Johnson we knew exactly what type of Prime Minister we were going to get, one incapable of dealing with detail, strategy and analysis, it was clearly in the public domain that he doesn't do that kind of thing, he was elected on the non-specific, notional broad sweep of choose your...

    Well said Suella

    It's the blatant lies that people like Braverman come out with that go unchallenged that concerns me, I am flabbergasted that anybody would take notice of someone with a proven track record of half truths, exaggerations and outright lies. Braverman is pandering to a racist element to deflect...

    If you were carrick right now what would you do. Us armchair manchair managers

    Work on getting tighter to the opposition in wide areas in our half away from home, we are allowing too much space on our flanks and whether that's crosses into the box or efforts from range we are not getting close enough to the opposition in our half, I know it's a lot to ask given the...

    What is the most unlikely event to have taken place?

    The moment that created the imagine on the Turin Shroud, still totally unexplainable, nothing in history before or since is comparable, I'm not a religious person but the Shroud totally dumbfounds and fascinates me. I've been fortunate enough to have seen the Shroud in person and also have had...

    How many Play Off spots are left?

    Still all to play for the Championship is a league of twists and turns, last season on December the 16th 2022, Blackburn, Norwich, Watford and Preston were 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th, and Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Luton and Coventry were 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th, respectively. Watford and Norwich...

    BRAVERMAN SACKED

    Yet again takes no responsibility for her shortcomings and inability to do her job, she should never have been appointed by Home Secretary by Truss and the fact she was reappointed by Sunak totally undermined any credibility his Premiership might have had. She has used her position to create...

    Corbyn on Piers Morgan show

    As much as I admire Corbyn's principles and 100% echo his thoughts on the need for a ceasefire, I do think at times his refusal or inability to play the game backfires on him. As much as he has been obstructed by others he at times certainly hasn't helped himself, although he has condemned...

    BRAVERMAN SACKED

    Braverman had made her position untenable and when her next leadership challenge fails hopefully her and her despicable comments will disappear from front line politics for good. How she has risen to the heights she has in politics is truly baffling, the exceptions that have been made for her...

    Is Braverman trying to get sacked?

    Whilst in no way defending Sunak I do think he needs to sack Braverman early next week and not before Sunday. If Braverman goes before then it would be used by those intent on causing trouble on Sunday as validation to their cause and give Braverman, although she's not one to pay too much...

    Is Braverman trying to get sacked?

    The moment Sunak re-appointed Braverman as Home Secretary he became a dead man walking PM, she has no record of delivery as a Minister and the slack she's repeatedly cut totally bemuses me, she epitomises the worst of politics and any notion she could one day be PM terrifies me, although I'm...

    Times our fans have acted daft

    Several of them did and decided to stay, Charlton offered Hamilton and Mowbray deals Laws had several offers, Stephens could have gone to Swindon, and Darlington made offers for Cooper, Pallister, Gill, Parkinson and Turnbull, Hammy and Mogga would have had 3 year deals if they'd gone

    It’s OK guys Sunak has arrived

    Like Johnson in Ukraine, Sunak in Israel isn't about solutions or statesmanship it's about images and agenda, it's also something to post on the Prime Minstagram account to indicate involvement. His comments were ill considered and contentious, at best, the Israeli government will not be...

    Hartlepool MP Jill Mortimer

    13 years and any issue they've tackled has become demonstrably worse, I have no issue with Asylum Seekers but surely any Party claiming to be solving the 'immigration problem' whilst the numbers increase has singularly failed in their promises and this failure to offer workable solutions is...
