Reply | What will you miss about ‘Banter Era’ Portman Road?
at 13:38 26 Jul 2024
Being able to get a ticket on the odd occasion I could make it.
And if travelling into Ipswich for other reasons, being surprised how light the traffic is given it's a match day.
That's about all. |

Reply | Biden standing down (n/t)
at 09:30 22 Jul 2024
I don't see Harris beating Trump, it's going to be Hillary part 2. They've gone from no chance with Biden to slimmest chance with her. My boss is American and solid anti-Trump, but has nothing good to say about KH. I don't think she is centrist enough to pick up floaters or anti-Trump republicans (there are still a few of these).
I read murmurings that Mitt Romney, the most prominent never-Trumper on the Republican side could 'cross the floor' - he would do better picking up what's left of the centre ground - but this seems very unlikely too.
Could still be other challengers for the nomination of course, depends what the Dem committee decides regarding the process, but as it stands looks like it will be a coronation for the current veep. |

Problem is too many right wing commentators spread disinformation as they try to quickly capitalise on this kind if disorder. Thus attracting attention and derision upon themselves and distracting from the actual problem. They would do their cause more good by being calm and measured and gathering some facts before commenting.
But your main point is still correct - the 'far right' are not the cause of this kind of disorder and aside from online noise are not presenting much threat to anybody. Opposing voices find it easier to focus on the right than to address actual problems in British towns and cities like this. |

Wasn’t Norwich Road area shut down a year or two ago while two rival gangs went at it with machetes and the like? Or am I imagining it? |

If they are going to ramp up house building to actually come close to meeting demand then great. That would lessen the need for ‘social’ housing. Colour me sceptical until it happens though.
I noticed there was nothing about votes for 16 yr olds though. That was a manifesto pledge. |

It's a good thing that Starmer is building that relationship with Trump already, similar when Lammy met Netanyahu the other day. Those bleating otherwise (elsewhere online, haven't seen much of it here) need to step out of sixth form politics and get with the grown up world. |

Reply | Szmodics is a massive upgrade on Chaplin

I agree he would be an upgrade, but like others here said, 'massive' might be pushing it until we see him in action. Good to have options for KM certainly. |

I say let Southgate remain, if he wants to, for WC qualification at least. Maybe take another look at options before the finals. |

I think this is the well established feeling of the majority of English football fans. With the exceptions of the casuals who don't follow a club closely but jump on the bandwagon when England are playing. |

Reply | Potter for England manager imo (n/t)
at 09:12 15 Jul 2024
I know it's only a slim chance but I am worried nonetheless that after all the saga we've been through already England might come for KM. Probably won't but I still worry.
Southgate IN! |
