Theresa May promoted #globalbritain. Making a good impression wd be important for UK‘s “soft power”. Since then one embarrassment after another. And this “20 years” etc hits a new low. Starmer a human rights silk. Never believed in human rights? Feebly following orders from McSweeney? Awful.

We have had fans moaning about new signings since the beginning of the season. With the possible exception of Chuba Dooba, haven’t they all look good eventually?

I will be sending Jules a splendid piece of music with Wynton Marsalis on trumpet. Trust the process!

Pressure grows on Starmer to sack chief of staff over briefing row Growing calls for Morgan McSweeney to go after extraordinary briefing operation against Wes Streeting

www.theguardian.com/politics/202... Without McSweeney Starmer would not know what to do. They should both go. Are one and the same.

Greetings GB and Jules. Sorry to see argument between Matusiwa and Phil. Thought both were excellent (playing football). Mr. Norway improving with every game. Would have preferred to start Taylor and Nunez as per QPR.

Who described neurodiversity as “overdiagnosed” without any justification at all - except presumably contempt for SEN children

What does the panel think of kieran‘s comments about the “really, really difficult atmosphere”? A gent in Block A became distressed in the second half shouting “get it forward!” Apart from that all seemed okay although players seemed a bit reluctant to come down to be applauded after FT.

Greetings GB! Greetings Jules!

How much say do we think Kieran has in hirings and firings? Would a (profitable) policy of hiring young players with a sell on value override any wish of Kieran to retain older but excellent players?

“We want our club back!” Anyone know what on earth that’s about?

I am a bit more relaxed than last week’s panel about how things are going. We have essentially a new squad. Who are all noticeably working very hard. It will take time. I trust the process.

@nakedfooty.bsky.social does the panel agree that the Town should copy the new policy of Real Betis of inviting elderly club members to be mascots?

As Reform's Nathan Gill admits taking bribes from Russian 'secret service pawn' Oleg Voloshyn, here’s a nice photo of Nigel Farage with Voloshyn’s wife.

Maybe they should be ministers instead of MPs who needed a year to work out they were right all along?

It’s an expensive gimmick. It will not make any difference to illegal working. The PM should grow a backbone (cheaper than gimmicks).

The cost? Pointless? There are rules about who can work already. What difference will this make?

Find mechanics of blue sky a bit confusing. Hope you got the original Maresco’s dad G piece and DS’s cartoon. It seems 2025 is the year for reverting to 1972 behaviour.

Maresca tells exiled Sterling and Disasi: real hardship is being a fisherman like my father Chelsea’s manager, Enzo Maresca, has told the exiled Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi to try working as a fisherman to understand real hardship

At one point, Stirling, a dad with four young children, was being required to train at 8 pm. The PFA then stepped in. No doubt a number of our previous managers would have approved. Maresco is the coach Delap moved to Chelsea to work with. Puzzling. But hooray 4 @davidsquires.bsky.social

Can the panel remember the Town ever having a “bomb squad” and if so, what were the conditions?
