i reckon the Conservative Party have become like Town in the Marcus Evans era 17:48 - Sep 7 with 1415 views | WeWereZombies | Cameron was the Mick McCarthy type, safety first and backed up by a Terry Connor type experienced deputy (although I can't figure out if Clegg or Osbourne played the Connor role.) Theresa May was the Paul Hurst appointment, appeared to be up and coming, competent but proved to be anything but. Boris Johnson was the full mouth and trousers Lambert (just replace 'I used to play for Borussia Dortmund' with 'I am the new Churchill', oh yes...) And now we have the Paul Cook fiasco, and I really can see Truss coming to work in an ill fitting track suit as she becomes very shouty indeed. |  |

So Peter Reid corresponds to Iain Duncan Smith ? I'm not going to be the one to tell Reid... |  |

i reckon the Conservative Party have become like Town in the Marcus Evans era on 17:57 - Sep 7 with 1379 views | BlueBadger | Nah, Mick was Gordon Brown. Basically competent but a bit dour and undervalued by fools. Cameron was Hurst - destroyed the country/club due to his own hubris and Johnson was Lambert - a lazy incompetent who should never have been allowed near the job but got ridiculous amounts of undeserved support due to the fact that he was good at pressers. This will make Truss Cook - a huge turnover in staff but no idea what do with it. [Post edited 7 Sep 2022 18:04]

I was wondering how you would take to my equating Mick with Cameron...But let's take it back one stage further. Your Gordon Brown is actually Paul Jewell - nice bloke, difficult to dislike but regrettably hapless at times. I think that works. Starts to go awry when we match Blair with Keane, and worse still Magilton with Major. Thankfully we are out of the Evans era before I have to suggest that Burley resembles Thatcher.

Definitely prefer Cameron as Hurst….but maybe Cameron is actually Evans. Almost single handedly to blame for everything that followed. I cannot see any sign of Gamechanger on the horizon though….,, |  | |  |

This. Cameron put a wrecking ball through the country and then when he lost the referendum he took his ball home and sulked in his £25,000 garden shed with no notion that he should clear up the mess he left behind him. Deplorable. |  | |  |

Boris played a big part in making this happen too and then hid whilst Theresa May picked up the pieces only to then take over when she'd taken most of the strain, all too cynically Boris' end couldn't have been more deserving to be quite frank, one of the most incompetent politicians Great Britain has ever seen albeit with a communication strategy that appeals to idiots Blair's Iraq legacy has destroyed him but by and large was a very successful PM, who the opposition could barely lay a glove on during his tenure [Post edited 8 Sep 2022 7:15]

MM is nothing like Johnson. "Was it nice to hear the fans chanting your name, Mick?" "Oh, they'll be calling for me to be sacked soon enough." He has a siege mentality mindset at the heart of his sense of self. In response to that question Johnson would have tucked a trouser leg into his sock, ruffled his hair, and gone back out for a victory lap. |  | |  |

Hmm, yes, you are not engaging with this premise by pretending to be one of the 1922 committee, are you ? Of course, no one has yet pointed out that Marcus Evans appeared to be more of a Lib Dem (or at least the CEO he appointed at Town did) but let's not let that get in the way of a good game. So, Paul Jewell has an open goal as anyone coming into the job after Keane should look good but he skies it. Similarly, Gordon Brown has the double benefit of being in charge of the party that the majority want and also not being Tony Blair but he delays calling an election he would have won on his appointment. Knowing that Brown is a little error prone the labyrinthine ways of Conservative leader selection get going and find a Mr. Supersmarm who will appeal to people with a superficial interest in politics but a more concerted interest in their own bank balance. Even then the election that eventually has to happen is indecisive, so a Clegg is needed (I'm still talking politics here) until the smarm offensive (or offensive smarm) wins through next time - by which time Cameron has taken full credit for maintaining the Union (even though most who voted Nae did so despite the politicians who were on the better together PR campaign) and feels he can pull off a win in the EU referendum (because losing that would look like Town losing home and away to Nodge more often than not over a number of years.) But, and here is where the austerity burden kicks in, just as crowds were drifting away from McCarthy's anti-football in small numbers each game so too had Cameron failed to read the room, the referendum result was the equivalent of the foul abuse from the terraces. Which makes Knudsen Iain Duncan Smith. [Post edited 8 Sep 2022 11:48]

True, and to carry the comparison on I would need to have seen Duncan Smith elected as an MEP so that he could have represented his side at a European level. Imagine that, Iain Duncan Smith holding the floor in Brussels, I'm going to use that thought when I can't get to sleep at night. |  |
