    Government made the choice to highlight immigration, and promise to reduce it... and then choose to adopt policies which, by their nature, do not reduce it. Accept you've been had over a barrel Tavy.

    Choose the New Third Kit for Next Season

    As an aside, I can’t understand why we don’t adopt the Brazil gold and blue as an away kit. Never going to be an issue when our first kit clashes, and has a nod to history. History any other club would love to have.

    Choose the New Third Kit for Next Season

    Voted A. The white kit looks very bland now, whereas the black and gold is very different, probably unique.

    When Was Your First City Match and Who was Your First Idol?

    !979, 2-2 draw at home with Sheffield Wednesday, at 4 years old. Bit young to have a favourite at that stage, but a little later it was Mark Robson.

    Well… Bellingham went off, so at that point Phil Foden, media appointed “best ever young player” was able to step up and show us what all the fuss is about… and disappeared.

    Getting a spine would involve the “work shy” and “falsely anxious” getting jiggy in their “taxpayer funded” spare time, and actually reproducing enough. Which, of course, they absolutely shouldn’t do if they can’t afford it. Sponging barstewards. Heaven forbid that twenty somethings could...

    Jay’s been on the blow again. Sweeney is far from perfect, but has been one of the most consistent players this season, and look at the form since he took the captaincy.

    I went into the Villa shop 9 days ago, as I was early for the Europa Conference game between Villa and Ajax, and was supposed to be entertaining a customer at the game. Shirts were reduced from £125 to £115. Kids were barely anything less. Add in that the shirts are sh1te, and they’ve already...

    I suspect he does, just that, as with the criminal justice system, deterrence only works if it’s likely to be enforced on the offender. In criminal justice, we either no longer have the capacity, or the police, to catch and prosecute (We probably have to release early even if convicted, in order...

    Hang on. You made up a figure, then asked him to disprove it. Seriously? That's all you have? The moon is made of feckin' cheese, and I ain't having it any other way. Disprove it! 🤡

    One of the best 21st century things I like about being an ECFC fan… I get to support all our old academy players (and increasingly non academy players), that have gone onwards and upwards. If it’s not to be us winning, at least it can be them. From George and Deano, to Archie and Ethan, Ben and...
