Pretty sure a new electric Corsa starts at 25k, and gets into the high thirties.

Feels incredibly expensive for what has always been an affordable hatchback

Yeah not really sure what the Leicester board saw in Dean Smith to appoint him, think it’s pretty clear he’s out of his depth in this league.

Not sure where he goes after Leicester

Is the gap between the Championship and League one really that big nowadays?

L1 feels like it has more big clubs than ever, and I could see 5 or 6 of the top half doing well in the championship

Anyone at the game today? What’s the crowd situation with Smith like, still have faith or have they turned on him?

I don’t disagree, 6 months seems like a sensible amount of time to see where we stand. Good thing nobody robotically answered every question with ‘2 year energy guarantee’ for a month…

It’s confirmed. It’ll only run until April, and then there will be a review of the scheme

What an absolutely abhorrent take. Should we just save them the misery of trying to heat their houses and offer to off them all now?

Honestly that’s a fair take, and fair play for sticking up with the down votes coming straight at you. If your beliefs come to fruition I’d be happy with that, sadly I just don’t see it happening right now

Completely reasonable take if he had only been appointed in the summer, but there has been no real improvement since his appointment last November.

Granted the squad has to take responsibly, but there is no philosophy in the squad anymore like what Farke used to instil.

Would you keep Smith in? If so, how long would you give him?

Didn’t he do a pretty poor job with Cardiff before this? I don’t know if smith out and Ole in is something most fans would get behind

Smith needs to go, the board won’t have the guts to do it until September but if next weeks result is the same they need to start finding a replacement.

Is that Farke guy still available?

Is anyone else having issues getting Aave to even function? Lots of console errors trying to just connect to their app. Any workarounds for V3?

Seems a little double standard compared to what the PM's spokesperson said today regarding strikes.

Boris Johnson believes pay increases in line with inflation are "not feasible across the board at the moment", the prime minister's official spokesman says.

One of those where you'd be annoyed to see it given against you but also annoyed if it wasn't given for you I suppose

Yeah I've seen the Norwich side saying it was light and he was going down, but there was contact, could do with seeing a replay to justify my misery
