Ha. I knew I was behind the times. Mentioned it to a few friends though and they also didn’t know about it - but liked what they saw…
And, no, don’t worry. You’re not blocked, I’ve just closed my X account/s. |

The good news for us is that the two clubs he is most connected with are unlikely to come calling so soon.
Spurs have a new manager who they are very happy with. They’re not going to want to replace him in the next year, very unlikely.
And ManU won’t go for a manager with just a couple of seasons behind him, in league 1 and the Championship.
I reckon we’ll be fine for this season and next, personally. 🤞 |

Given the rather high profile questions about the money that is (or rather isn't) paid out to performers from the use of their music on streaming services, it does seem understandable why any artist might think it obscene to pay many millions of dollars for the exclusive on a rabid anti-vaxxer's podcast ramblings. |

Does anyone give any kind of credence to surveys like this? How would anyone (outside of the individual players) actually know? It seems like complete guesswork to me. |

Reply | Morsy replacement?
at 11:01 27 Jan 2022
Does he have the sheethouse credentials for that role? Genuine question btw.
Morsy is an enforcer, motivator as well as a creator, isn't he?
I wonder whether Bakinson is viewed as the man for this role (he showed the physique and presence for it at AFCW, I thought), or Evans (this was his role earlier in the season, wasn't it?). My gut is that (if fit) those two would be the most likely pairing. |

Is he implying this person was vacccinated? And that this is the reason why he collapsed?
And, does he have any evidence that this person was vaccinated rather than having had COVID at some point in the past? (If we are going to draw spurious connections between unconnected matters) |

Not sure how often this needs to be said, but lets have another go.
Omicron is indeed a weaker strain. But it still puts lots of people in hospital - granted, fewer than previous strains, it's true. The latest I read was 40% fewer.
But Omicron is also more contagious. If it was twice as contagious, that would immediately cancel out relative weakness of 40%. But the indications are that it is much more contagious than that.
And, the danger is that hospitals will become overrun with Omicron patients, which not only makes it more difficult to treat the more serious cases (potentially resulting in more deaths than might otherwise have been the case) but also affects our ability to treat patients with other conditions, heart attacks, strokes, cancer, etc etc.
That's why we have to take this seriously. |

Agreed. Whoever we appoint needs the full support of the fanbase and the owners - nothing is going to happen overnight, especially with a squad which has been put together in its entirety by the ex-manager. |

Warnock and McCarthy are the only two managers I would have any faith in being able to transform the team we have right now. But McCarthy would be a toxic appointment, Warnock slightly less so, but would be far from popular too.
I fear we have painted ourselves into a corner by sacking Cook at this point.
Unless, as you suggest, there is a rabbit that Ashton is preparing to pull out of a hat. But it doesn't feel like that. |

Yes.
Golden rule. Don't get rid of what you have until you have an alternative option in your back pocket.
We appear to have given our manager carte blanche to sack as many and sign as many as he wants; complete his squad by end of August (halfway through September, if you start from when his key man and captain Morsy was actually available); and give him a grand total of 10-12 weeks to get things in shape. And then sacked him without a plan.
Excellent work. |

Yes, "Awesomestow" is great, but pricey these days.
If anyone is looking for somewhere east-ish, I'd look to Leytonstone or Forest Gate as areas which already on the up. If I was reviewing the crystal ball, I'd suggest Manor Park, Maryland as places which will start rising soon. All of Forest Gate, Manor Park and Maryland are on the Queen Elizabeth/Crossrail line which will transform those areas over the next 10/15 years.
Alternatively, in the next five years there will be decent bargains to be had more centrally, as businesses move out of the centre post-COVID, leaving loads of previously commercial premises empty. How affordable they will be is difficult to know straight away though. |

Went to a gig on Monday night and everyone had to show their COVID pass on their phone to get in. No big deal, a bit of a queue, but nothing more than you'd expect getting into any gig. |

Where has it been said that they wouldn't? As Joe has said, it is something that Milts used to do and I thought someone like Theo Benneworth was supposed to help now. (I might have that wrong)
But the club should be as welcoming as possible. Aside from the good impression it gives of the club, why would you not try to help someone who you are paying £100-250k a year to perform at the top of their ability settle in the area? Its just good business too, isn't it? |

Attitude and also a player who wants to be at the club, rather than wanting away which (based on his transfer request last summer) Flynn wants to be. Plus he’ll be Cook’s signing, which will mean a lot. |
