    They said I would never be any good at poetry because I'm dyslexic, but I've proved them wrong and made some lovely vases and jugs.

    Let's just put our results in perspective.
    1) We all believed we had the perfect schedule to start the season, playing two of the three promoted teams and others from the bottom half of the table. We've secured fewer than half of the available points from those games. Moreover, we lost to both of the promoted teams, including one at home.
    2) We have no consistency when it comes to who plays each game. Is Walcott in or not? Is DC-L in or not? Is Bernard in or not? I understand there are two injuries, but we need consistency. And our substitutions have often been bizarre.
    3) I've noted for years the very strong correlation between goal difference and league position: Obviously, the worse the goal difference, the lower the team's position. After this supposedly easy start, we have the 4th worst goal difference in the league, which places us 17th.
    You'll remember that I'm usually the one to call for giving managers time (unless it's the crook), but these are damning facts, and I see no sign of these things changing. If we lose to Burnley, we will be in a very worrying situation. The top players Brands is bringing in will move on, and we'll be in a downward spiral. That has to stop - and stop soon.

    the big problem we have here is the mistake about the voting that most folks have,  to whit  the way that people confuse party politics with brexit.  they are two  different things  vote how you want  of course  but  make sure you do not confuse politics and policies.

    A lead case. Don’t want that arrogant twat anywhere near us. He will have to swallow his pride soon though. Madrid look like they will go for alonso or someone of that ilk. Tuchel looks comfy at psg. Barca will probably get xavi. If poch leaves spurs for united which I think could happen in the summer I don’t think spurs fans would want him. Luis Enrique looks a natural fit for me. No compensation fee for levy. Where does he go?

    Not a great time for this match but we must play them twice, so let's get it over with.  They are steamrolling teams right now.  I don't know what you can do tactically to stop them, so just put the best players out there and hope for the best.  I'm done with DCL and Kean at striker, our attacks are limp, we need a focal point, back to Richarlison leading the line.  He can score, he's fast, he has goals with the head, he's a nuisance.

    Rubes I am a remainer and I make no secret of that,  but I don’t believe the last referendum has delivered for anybody leave or remain, and yes our politicians are to blame for the stalemate, so we do need a 2nd referendum where no one can say they haven’t got a better understanding of what leave or stay would mean, and a new referendum that no matter what the outcome by law it has to be implemented and can’t be opposed, then I believe we will have a fairer result. 
    And if any side wants to argue about it let them in the knowledge that they can go on till the cows home, but what ever the result it will be implemented as a decision by the people based more facts than fiction. 
    And when leave are going round the country campaigning I bet they won’t be driving there red bus around smeared with the outrageous lies on it like the last time.

    By that logic he wouldn't be PM because he'd have been thrown out himself in March.

    Some very good ones on that feed!
     
    Sitting beside my girlfriend I said, "I love you."
    She asked: “Is that you or the beer talking?” 
    I said: “It’s just me talking to the beer.”
     
    My girlfriend and I went on our 9th date to see the new Batman film.
    Our dates can be summarised as follows: dinner, dinner, dinner, dinner, dinner, dinner, dinner, dinner Batman.
     
    I’ve started growing herbs in my garden. 
    To help identify them I’m growing them in alphabetical order. 
    My neighbour asked me, “how do you find the time?” 
    I said: “Easy, it’s right here next to the sage.”
     
    A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk and if they have avocados, get 6.
    A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk.  
    The wife asks: “Why did you buy 6 cartons of milk?”
    He said: “They had avocados.”
