The number of private landlords selling up is increasing and fewer are joining the market, shrinking the private sector rental stock. So the consequences of making if difficult for both good and bad landlords is a reduction in rental properties which are being sold into private ownership reducing the stock and pushing up rents, making it difficult for more people who can not buy. All landlords are bar stewards is part of the populist narrative and is now making things difficult for those who need to rent. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/money/article/2024/jul/22/numbe [Post edited 24 Jul 16:22]

| Forum Thread | Southgate at 07:32 26 Jun 2024
No rainbow laces, gesture politics or human rights for him to claim the moral high ground. His talisman for inequality has taken to crashing Rolls Royces, hiring Lear jets to go on the piss and carrying £10,000 in cash. His right back seems to be trying to solve the UK birth rate issue singlehandedly and even the normal sources of diversion such are squabbling WAGS and hooligan supporters are quiet. Lineker has decided there is more mileage in being critical. Unless Harry Cane starts to transition or Declan Rice changes his pronouns Southgate will be forced to talk about football. But hold on.........the fans are not happy and that's upsetting some of the very sensitive underperforming multi millionaires. [Post edited 26 Jun 7:33]

Sadly my elderly neighbour fell over last night and broke a hip. The question is, if you live in Swansea where does the paramedic come from to attend to you in such circumstances? |
| Forum Thread | Contracts Motivation and Relegation at 08:55 7 Apr 2024
The contractual strategy with our squad is difficult to decipher. No real sign of a core of players that create stability more of a patchwork of abilities and contract status. The biggest indictment of our owners is that we find ourselves in a position where these is a risk of relegation with large numbers of players looking over their shoulder at next season. I'm not surprised they look demotivated. |

Winning headers, wrestling for the ball and playing forward more often. Looked a different player than the passive sideways and backwards stuff. |
| Forum Thread | Oh for a tall (ish) Centre Forward at 08:38 3 Mar 2024
Time and time again when Rushworth had to clear upfield we could not win a single header. With two fast wingers not being able to knock the ball on is such an obvious gap in our play. |

So the council tax payers are taking a 10 percent hit in Birmingham principally for mismanagement of equal pay and a big IT cock up. Meanwhile there is no sign of any action against those fcuking up. |

" I'd like to wish everyone a very Happy New Year. It was fantastic to see the players and officials working in the community in the lead up to Christmas, helping those less fortunate than ourselves. The players were grateful to be able to provide presents to those children who needed to be in hospital at this time of year. I'd like to thank the players for their efforts and for their present to me which reminds me of home every time I look at my Mickey Mouse watch. Our relentless pursuit of a new manager continues at pace and I know that the exacting process that we are using is the right one. We have taken advice and everyone has said our selection criteria are correct, and as Jase and Stevie say they can't all be right. Thank you for your patience and support, finding the money to support us can be difficult for poor people at this time of year I am told, but the great thing about football is the loyalty that keeps the business afloat no matter how things are going that's why I invested my five hundred dollars. On the pitch I'd like to thank Brian Sheehan and his staff. I visited Fairwood at Christmas, Brian is an innovative coach it was great to see Peter Parker get a game, I've nicknamed him 'Spiderman'. I was impressed by the training routine that saw all our strikers chasing cows across Fairwood Common with a banjo. Brian assured me that no cows were hurt or are likely to be hurt in the future. Today we welcome, West Bromwich Albion. I love Bromwich which is a fine city. West Brom have a great history and have been long time supporters of women's football for many years who can forget when they selected the Three Degrees for their first team. Try and enjoy part of the game at least." |
