Met him in Cafe de Paris in London on NYE just after he’d left Take That. He couldn’t have been nicer despite me being the worse for wear even had time to have a quick chat about footy. You want to see the companies he employs when hes on tour..... We went to see him in the Johan Cruyff Arena during Take the Crown tour a few years ago and after went down underneath the stadium where the trucks and lighting rigs get put away....... Fleets of trucks from a hauliers in Biddulph were there, light and sound company from Stafford, catering trucks from Leek and The Moorlands, and loads of vans from a hire company somewhere in Tean..... tons and tons of equipment there was. Good on him I say.......

Something worth looking out for in the small villages surrounding the larger named vineyards in France are the nondescript mini markets. At the back (usually) there'll be a couple of iffy looking IBC's of wine for a fill your own container type thing. Don't be put off. They invariably contain the over production from the nearby Château. When they've bottled their legal limits under 1st and 2nd labels this is where the rest ends up so that the locals get a bit of a bargain. Château Lafite at €1 a gallon. I am currently working with a French student. She tells me that there are " designated " or " known" roads near to vineyards or other drinking areas that the Police keep clear of, don't patrol, as it is accepted that people drive down them whilst over the limit. Live and let live. Another fantastic example of French pragmatism and rule by the people. " Working with a french student".....yeah riiight !

If we win..." we are staying up , say we are staying up" ( personally I hate that chant, it's sort of celebrating that we are shit).. If we lose, or draw, " you're not fit to wear the shirt"... And ironically followed by " ooohhh City we love you, we love you City we do......."

Right lads, see those white things with nets in, they are called the goals. You have to get the round thing called a ball and kick it into the nets. “ But don’t , repeat DONT Kick it in the one with our goalie in it ….., OK?”

I still think it’s really easy tbh. Why managers just keep ignoring 4231 is anyone’s guess. Thick fuckers. I’ve never been a fan of this formation 4-4-2 for me every time but again, we don’t have the personele for it. My logic is if you have 2 strikers you have twice the chance to score…. A bit simplistic but hey I’m simple !

Sounds like you can't define a blue sock mate. Everyone knows blue socks have a blue colour. You can't just change the colour as it pleases you. It's like calling a blue sock a purple sock. I have so many odd socks go missing (fuck knows where they go!) I'm considering thinking bollocks to it and just start wearing socks that don't match. Join the club matey.....I cant be arsed to stand there sorting pairs out - mine just go straight in the drawer Annoys the fuck out of the missus when we go out ! I just tell her its old age creeping up on me and meekly apologise ( knowing full well Im just being a beligerent old fart)

Ditching plans pre manifesto is fine in my opinion. I would prefer he produces a fully costed and well thought through manifesto relevant to the economic circumstances at the time of the election rather than sticking to pledges he made before knowing all the economic facts. Some people are critical of Starmer for ditching his leadership bid pledges! Since then the UK has deteriorated in almost every way, for example the national debt has more than tripled. Just would be nice to have reasons to vote for him. I've got a book of reasons not to vote the torys but it would be nice to have the option to vote someone in who brings hope and promise rather than voting them because they're not a tory. Which is where alot of us are now at. Not so much the hope and promise part of it for me, more the trait of having the conviction to carry out policies for the better of the UK as a whole, however hard that may be. Pandering to people just doesnt work as youre trying to please everyone all of the time and you end up pleasing no one. The current bunch of shysters have proven their worth in not giving a toss and I would bet a pound to a pinch that the next lot would do exactly the same. Time for some tough love and strong leadership.

We can go back and forth here to the 'enth degree....we just have differing opinions and my point is we should hang them. If, god forbid anything were to happen to my boy or daughter, I would absolutely and unequivically want vengeance and revenge 100%. That to me would be justice. Then Id go after their families and make their lives a living hell as well.... You wouldnt I suppose....? I know the answer here so ...... What I always find strange in these instances is that those who are perhaps on the more xenophobic end of the spectrum are some of the biggest advocates of Sharia Law. Speaking generally of course. Absolutely…. One of the 5 rules of Sharia is protection of life I believe.

Just read Rory Stewart's book about his time as a Tory MP. It is a sobering experience. Cabinet Ministers, civil servants all in it to look after their own interests. Not really interested in solving problems, just looking for good press (ministers) easy life (civil servants). He uses the phrase 'learned helplessness' to describe the civil service and some Govt. appointed officials. He does have a lot of time for the ex-MP David Gauke who he thought would have made a good PM not least because he (Gauke) was sharp and was very effective in dismantling permanent secretaries objections to any proposals. Gauke had the Whip withdrawn for not supporting the Brexit deal and then resigned because he wouldn't serve under Boris Johnson. Both him and Rory Stewart are no longer serving MP's having become disillusioned with their own party. I like Rory Stewart but it seems he felt he was banging his head against a brick wall trying to work with a lot of the people in the political system. Another point he made was everybody wants to be a cabinet minister and they make short term decisions with that in mind. See above re. soundbites etc. I’m always cautious about taking a person’s opinion as a glimpse into a true reality. Stewart wrote a book. He needed an angle to get it to sell. For that, he’s going to need to take the worst examples he can think of and simply ignore much of anything else that doesn’t quite hold up to the narrative he wants to make money from. Much like the 1272 pages on this thread then....

Cue significant upturn in fortunes at Charlton.....I reckon he will do well there due to a bit of history with the club and so brings familiarity.
