He’ll always be Bob Buzzard to me.

The Gorton and Denton by-election: fact checked – Full Fact As voters in the Greater Manchester constituency prepare to head to the polls, here’s a round-up of claims we’ve fact checked from the campaign.

Pot and kettle I’m afraid. All three parties in the running are guilty of misleading voters. Vote Green if you want but not because they are any more principled when it comes to campaigning!

I wish it wasn’t so but I fear this latest revelation won’t influence more than a very few voters.

Having just watched this, I think β€œgiven” is more accurate than β€œ bangs”. Abject defending.

Fellow owner here, I feel your pain. Makes it worse that he also scored in the shoot out while Bruno fluffed his tonight.

Everyone knows he wants out and the crowd have turned on him. The feeling is that he isn’t trying too hard. I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t go.

Saw the The Who in 2024. 52 years after first Genesis gig in 1972!

I won’t deny you that. As a long standing fan, have an irrational hope Wolves win the derby tomorrow.

Genius pick!

Yeah, they are good long term and I’ll probably go for one of them, just hate the idea of missing a good fixture.

One right, two wrong so far.

Not worried about Timber or O’Reily being rotated midweek?

I’m starting Xhaka and Senesi over Rodon, Burns and Reindeer. Potential for def cons swings it, don’t see any clean sheets, plus Xhaka is playing his former club.

Don’t see that happening, fear and self interest are combining to make opinion polls like this increasingly irrelevant.

Loads I would think.

Nearly did that but bottled it and downgraded the defence to replace SL with Bowen.

No problem Michael, good luck for the new season.

Hi Michael, think you have tagged me in error here - is there an Arsenal fan with a similar name?

Definitely cobs, anything else is wrong.

Yes, he’s going big against leaky Brighton (I hope).

Upper tier local authorities like Lincolnshire don’t get to determine planning applications, except for minerals and waste developments. The new councillors will no doubt eventually find this out, along with lots of other realities.

Odegaard on three bonus, what a joke.

I’m moving towards Strand Larsen over Cunha. I just feel there is too much noise around Cunha this week with the transfer pending. Think he has lost the supporters now and Pereira will know that.

24.04.2025 20:07 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

I’m considering it even though I’d need a -8 to get 11 out. Don’t see much upside to FH 34.

Yes, reading the comments again they should be.
