Ramblings about Chelsea?

It's an emotional thing isn't it? At the moment when Potter made the decision to 'jump ship' (in many ways understandable because of the eye watering financial inducements), like everyone else I had to 'suck it' up and I still feel a bit sore about the timing and the mass exodus of talent that...

You might be right and you could be wrong. Speculation. That way madness lies..... Now is all there is.

Obviously RDZ will be accompanied with all his italian coaches, and I agree that Gross is also on his way.. Are any other people going who we will certainly miss?

A timely reminder by a tory about the tories..... never forget!

Absolutely. I think we all tend to respond emotionally first, but then it then becomes important to reflect on feelings and consider if they are rational and sensible. In my opinion, many Brexit Supporters didn't get that far!

When the Brexit controversy was at its most intense, I remember one commentator pointing out that, for a significant number of Leave voters, the issue was emotional rather than rational; and you cannot reason with emotion. Looking again at the language and content of @bazbha's post, I think s/he...

Your personal definition of Brexit success is not an issue; that's your business... but your comment in brackets is clearly provocative and vacuous. The Leave lobby set out specific goals by which we can measure its success and judge it more impersonally and objectively. This is what we can...

That's another false statement. Whatever you say, the Brexit lobby made huge claims to get people to vote out that they either could not deliver or had no intention of doing so. It may be boring for you to see mendacity called out after such a long time, but the fact that it happens restores my...

You are right, where are MouldyBoots, Footie Genius, Pastafarian etc when you need their viewpoint as opposed to when you were sick of reading the same tropes?

I suspect that the only real residual benefit for hard line Leavers is that Brexit has divided the nation and p****ed off Remainers.. That's not very ambitious or constructive, but there you go...

Although it may prove to be irrelevant, my last comment on this is be careful what you wish for. I have been a manager of a 'team' over a period of years and we experienced highs and lows in motivation at different times that were caused by circumstances partly or wholly out of our control...

He always said he was honest and that is an honest comment. I think identifying the truth is the first step in putting it right. He is human and with such high aspirations for the club he probably does feel deflated by the injuries and the results. Rather that than Potter's 'fans should remember...

So why are so many reasonable people embarrassed/affronted when they see the George Cross? Some Brits from ethnic minorities are intimidated by the sight of it. Here is one piece of evidence and I don't believe there is anything 'lazy' about drawing attention to it...
