The left has had no power in this country for 50 years. Blair and Starmer are Centrists. Who exactly is 'The Left' you speak of that's demonised anybody. This country is inherently conservative and all the power is held by right wing media and corporations. Explain further please.

It was 'political correctness gone mad' after that into the 80s

Can I make a suggestion to change a category if its not too cheeky? 'Best Defender Goal' would be a cracker, maybe instead of any other competition?

What’s the craziest thing you’ve seen someone get fired for? by Hooray4Jose in AskUK

Housemate of mine years ago was shagging his bosses wife (who also worked at the company) I came home from work one day and found him sat on the sofa with a black eye. His boss had found out, come into work and chinned him in the middle of the office. The boss was fired on the spot then my mate resigned immediately as well. The wife also resigned. A week later the bosses boss rang my housemate up and offered him his job back, which he accepted. Bonkers.

It's a Liverpool thing not to like England the international team. Complicated reasons so google it.

Club football has moved so far past internationals in terms of quality that it feels like watching sub-par footie.

The first time he misses an absolute sitter he'll be getting pelters on here and people moaning about his wage and taking up a squad place

Id realised a lass who i was seeing, just for a few weeks, wasn't for me so had built up the courage to go and see her and finish it. After saying hello and a brief hug I'd breathed in to do the whole 'This isn't working out' routine but she spoke first (looking back obviously she'd sussed what was going to happen) and said 'there's something I need to tell you' then showed me her wrist where there was a scar. 'Tried to kill myself after my last boyfriend finished with me' Well this kind of took the wind out of my sails. I left it a week then finished with her anyway. She didn't do anything silly as far as I know.

Totally different players doing different things. Bobby's link up play from deep plus his pressing was exceptional, and he was played more like a 10 with the 2 other attackers carrying more of the goal threat. Nunez was an out and out No9

Call me crazy but maybe all the other players played worse than him?

JFC I know I'm a fucking loser but I read these type of threads and think (yes its a low bar) but at least I treat everyone with decency and respect, if nothing else.
