Wharton is quite clearly not in the wall

He was nowhere near the wall

It's really not that baffling, I don't know why this is so hard for some people to grasp. Stupid mistakes are not an indictment of the way we played in general. If we play brilliantly against Real in 10 days, and we've done everything right and are 1-0 up in the 96th minute, and then in the...

A good job a game is made up of two of them. Even in this supposedly dominant Leeds second half where we were shit, they had zero shots on target outside of the three we gifted them. Seems an odd definition of shit to me when your opponent can't fashion a single shot on goal.

But are we playing shit? We're 2nd. I don't think we are. I think every game we've won, we deserved on balance to win. Nobody gets lucky in this league, your position in the table largely represents where you should be. By that token, if we are shit, then literally the only not shit team in the...

Some people in the match thread were calling him the league's best right back before half-time. Then one mistake and apparently he's shit and we need to sell him along with half of our squad. Knee-jerk doesn't even begin to describe some in here. Nunes has probably been one of our most...

We're in 2nd place going into December, and we'll stay there unless Arsenal drop points tomorrow - at which point everybody will be saying the title is back on again. Showed a bit of grit to win when two bizarre individual errors nearly cost us in an otherwise comfortable game where the...

Apparently, Foden has now overtaken Yaya in our Premier League all-time scorers rankings.

The number of defenders constantly hanging off Haaland is a bit ridiculous

I actually feel a bit sorry for him. It's easy to forget he's only 21 and at the moment he's just looking badly out of his depth. I think the bit that gets people's backs up is there is more than a bit of "not as good as he thinks he is" about him. I have a lot of time for players who make...

Ironically, I would suggest Gordon was also the last Chancellor to take actions that actually had some material bearing on the direction of the country rather than simply presiding over managed decline and asset sales. But then I went to the same university as him, so I am a bit biased. But...

The truth is that debt is largely paid off by inflation. Anybody who took out a £10k mortgage 40 years ago has experienced that. Your £20 a month payments feel like a lot at first but roll forward X years and they’re nothing. The debt only really matters insomuch as when interest rates are...

The above exchange demonstrates the other big problem - perspective. Your garden variety voter has zero sense of perspective. We’re expending so much energy in the national conversation for things like Motability and the asylum system. If you stopped Motability tomorrow and you chucked out...

Fair play to her mate. A lot of folks in this country seem to have forgotten a quite fundamental concept when it comes to welfare - it is a safety net. People's circumstances change. People get ill. People die. People get divorced. People lose their job. A huge chunk of people in receipt of UC...

A large part of the problem is that the things that we need to do, those things that would be economically beneficial to the country are total poison to the electorate. And the things that people often want to see would be a total disaster - as evidenced by some of the suggestions in this very...

Honestly, there’s probably very few politicians who I would dislike on a human level. Most of them are amiable and personable, that’s often how they get where they are. The ones I’ve met in person are generally just quite normal and nice people. Even the Tory ones. That doesn’t mean I agree...

If we insist on playing at walking pace then at least bring Cherki on to make it mildly entertaining.
