    Exactly the rules permit asset stripping of a club, but inward investment is cheating. Bizarre logic. Their ownership will bring that club to the brink of ruin. Yet it is never ever questioned, investigated or charged by the games governing bodies.

    The glazers are one of the cleverest owners in football for a pure self enrichment, fuck the club point of view. 1) Extraction of over 1 billion from the club a healthy portion of which they pay themselves as dividends, the rest is the debt the club has to pay for the pleasure of their...

    The Boxing thread

    You can't blame him or Hearn for that. Beating Dubois is his only route back to the top of the HW division. He can't afford another year of building him up against MMA fighters and Helenius level competition. He is 35. Either he rematches for what would be another big money fight or he retires...

    Not far off that to be honest. AJ has never had a especially complex defence but the head movement in there was novice like. Similar to Joe Joyce against Zhang he looked like so easy to hit in the face it was scary. Throwing punches an not moving the head is terrible, doing that against a heavy...

    General Election - 4th July 2024

    Party donations can be used to buy a flat in Mayfair. You would not expect the great man to live in Clacton!!

    General Election - 4th July 2024

    Exactly. He owns 53% of the party and it is utterly beholden to him in spirit and electoral necessity. Farage is willing to do some pretty grubby stuff for money, cameo videos saying up the Ra for 60 quid etc, him owning a company like that will tempt his worst instincts. I also think he will be...

    General Election - 4th July 2024

    Fair point. The same was true with UKIP. However, my prediction is Farage's ownership of that party will be a disaster. Political donations for the party will get mixed up in the personal and there will be a scandal around misuse of party funds.

    Should have been booked for diving in the second half.

    Keir Starmer

    I don't know about that coming out better but they do come out with a different mindset and confidence. At the elite schools the network that is built, is significant. It is also becoming a case that certain professions, journalism, arts, acting, politics and parts of the finance and legal...

    Reform UK Party Limited Company

    To be fair one of my biggest complaints, is the parachuting of MPs into constituencies. It should be banned. If Anderson is doing that then fair enough. He deserves credit. However, he is trying to do populism but doesn't have anything like the skill of a Farage to pull it off. Added to this he...

    Yep that fight shortened both lads careers tonight, especially Wardley. Hopefully they can leverage the attention from this into bigger purses for both of them and get some good paydays. I'd be amazed if either one could do that again too many times.

    Fight of the year contender. Brilliant from both, don't think Wardley deserved to lose his titles, a draw is a fair result. Amazed that fight went the distance.

    Paul Parker is the pricks prick. I remember he used to write a "article" for yahoo back in the day, lads leaving the pub at closing time have spoken more sense.

    Suella Braverman - sacked as Home Secretary (p394)

    That's a good shout. Jacob Rees Mogg, the prick, made this point yesterday, i was amazed by his honesty. Legal migration is 600k per year, boats about 50k per year. If you really want to reduce immigration because you feel it is out of control you are focusing on the wrong one. The reality for...

    Suella Braverman - sacked as Home Secretary (p394)

    Spot on. A hard debate needs to be had about this, because public service is becoming a hobby. A bit like Philanthropy a game for the very wealthy to play in. The other side of the coin is, those from wealth are often best placed to "profit" from been an MP post their political career. A...

    Rishi Sunak

    The paucity of debate in Parliament can be linked directly to the qaulity of sitting MPs. The amount of sex offences for a relatively small workplace is astonishing. Then there is the deliberate polarisation of the debate, the role of politican is to lead and bind a country together, the...

    Rishi Sunak

    Does the Musk interview help the government? No Does it help the Conservative party? No Does it help the country? No The only person it helps is him, he is already using the position of PM to shamelessly leverage his career post politics. This is using the highest office in the land to help...

    That's an interesting post. I thought that perhaps he was just uncomfortable with the game plan, the moving away from the left and it was forcing him to overthink? In fairness in the last fight he was letting basic shots through and he looked like he had never seen a southpaw before. Tonight...

    Poor Joyce. I like him and I have to say he always comes across as a really decent bloke. I hope he has made some good money because I think this may be the end for him. More worrying than the punch resistance fading is how gunshy he was, I think he threw his right had once to Zhangs body. From...

    Dublin and the ROI

    Wicklow is gorgeous. I would recommend Enniskerry. Some incredible walks lots of nice quiet pubs and restaurants. Enniskerry is more mountainous but your close to places like powerscourt and Glendalough. Both well worth the walk. If you fancy something more costal Greystones/Delganey is nice...
