    Cann we make the top 4 or 5?

    ...with 2 more windows before we can feasibly play another CL game ...I think we'd be all set.

    Rodrigo Bentancur

    Although selection is in the main about who is playing well and on form, if its close, other factors come into play, and in Biss or Bents case we might be looking to eek as much out of Bentancur as possible considering a ban is incoming. Also he's banned for his country currently so can rest up...

    There is certainly a lot we can learn from other countries. I'm surprised more cherry picking of the best bits isn't more apparent between countries tbh. Much like our football teams, its to a certain extent a culture thing imo (ie priorities/what's important)...whether that is fed from that...

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    The two question marks against it succeeding is 1. Is the quality of player it takes to get it close to perfection beyond our means (£). Or can great coaching, canny player selection surmount that? 2. Is the tactic/approach doomed to failure in the first place due to the quality of the league...

    The end game is the same. Thames Water is carrying over 15bn in debt. Whether that debt is from a third party that enabled me to leverage a buy out of Thames Water or from various bond issues sold to a multitude of third parties matters little. It's probably worse given more than half that debt...

    I 100% get what you mean a fully agree. Shelter, power and clean water are 100% non negotiable targets for humans ...closely followed by healthcare, education and public transport...the rest on one level or another is shopping. Provide those fairly and to a good level and it gives EVERYONE a...

    Sick sick world what is wrong with people

    The thread title isn't a judgement on the people (victims) in this video but just how such a desperate situation exists and is allowed to by humanity.

    Since privatisation it loaded itself with 15bn of debt while still paying out dividends and currently using circa 30% of income to service that debt. While neglecting infrastructure something akin to Old Trafford

    It clearly an affordability question. How do we rebalance this? A brake on the housing market, either through natural market forces or government rules/taxation? Wait for wages to catch up? Rebirth of social housing for rung 1 and 2 of the ladder? Including a reinvestment right to buy loop...

    It's always been a bizarre affordability quirk that if I paid a landlord £1500 a month for 10 years for example...it doesn't go someway to proving that I am capable of paying £1500 to a mortgage company... especially how then I'd have even greater motivation to make that payment each month given...

    That was a joke ... apologies if it wasn't clear lol. I thought from my other replies it would be clear I wouldn't condone that kind of approach?

    Only in the scenario you gave, or on the back of the idea Rorschach floated. (I've lost track) There has to be an acceptance that sometimes things will be painful, you might have to suffer (poch or Ange will tell you this:)). Nothing is (or shouldn't be a straight line). Unfortunately...

    As a side point as long as you can keep servicing your mortgage (and that's largely determined by interest rates and employment) it's not a problem. There does have to be an acceptance that there will be 'winners and losers' in any market situation. That's the nature of it?. Of course it's...
