It seems astonishing that they now propose to do things in a sensible order. Like vetting someone before they appoint them.

Ronald (and I have been critical) was a better option than Nunes IMO.

Indeed. The problem that Matos has is that Widdell can't keep that up for 90 minutes on Saturday/Tuesday/Saturday. The replacements need to be as high intensity as Widdell is. That's a problem going forward.

A favourite of mine:

You never know at this stage of the season. Portsmouth looked in deep trouble and then won at Middlesbrough and home to Ipswich keeping two clean sheets. Then beat Leicester to put the cherry on top. It's a funny old game.

He needs to improve his stats obviously but anyone who's watched Cooper and Widdell can see without doubt that the latter is a far better player.

Starmer's so bad it makes me yearn for Johnson and Truss and May and Cameron. On second thoughts it doesn't. I'll take him over any of those even though he's not very good at politics.

🤣

He was only 20 just before Christmas. He’s getting better and better and with this season under his belt I believe he’ll push on. Other views are just as valid.

The bottom of League two looks interesting… Barrow v Newport on the final day. 👀

I enjoyed the game today, excellent showing and terrific atmosphere. Eom our MOM for me, outstanding support for Parker (who was very good) and caused them lots of problems and should have had a penalty. Stamenic had a fine game, Franco was his usual Jack Russell Terrier but should have hit the...

Promoted teams seem to need to spend very well and lots to survive these days. Sunderland spent loads and spent well after scraping up and have done very well. Burnley haven’t spent loads and, despite getting 100 points in the Championship, never looked like staying up.

Truss lasted 40 days and the Queen died during that time and the country stood still for a fortnight. She wouldn't have lasted a month normally.

If you're married your spouse gets everything free of inheritance tax and inherits your allowance. If you own a property that gives the surviving person £1 million to pass on without any tax implications.
