Thread | Coventry - a minutes applause
at 16:17 15 Sep 2024
Hi everyone, if you're making the trip to Coventry next Saturday then in the 17th minute please join in with the home fans for a minutes applause.
A young fan who "lived for CCFC" (that being Coventry obviously) has passed away and they had his funeral last Thursday.
His name was Tyler Hollyoake and he was only 17, some family members will be there apparently and they would really appreciate it if we'd make the effort.
So remember, 17th minute, a minutes applause for Tyler.
Thanks in advance evryone. |

Thread | The rising costs
at 20:51 9 Sep 2024
No it's not about Labours first budget though we all (ok most of us) think taxes will rise somewhere.
No, this is an EU thread, sorry!
It's been said that they need more money,
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gq1e7k2j8o
And we all know where that money comes from, the members will have to stump up around 25-29 billion more each every year if Draghi gets what he wants.
Now growth is down and the situation is described as challenging, finances are stretched across the EU membership and Draghi says the EU needs more money.
https://economy-finance.ec.europa.eu/economic-forecast-and-surveys/economic-fore
There's stil a war on the continent, there been mass protests about a range of things including immigration and it seems to me that remaining in the EU may really not have meant living the dream, more an expensive albatross who continues to grow and weigh down economies.
We'll see in the long term if the EU grows and prospers and of course what happens with us but I think its a simple sad fact that politicians across the globe re ruining the world for us ordinary folk. |

Thread | The derby
at 11:21 18 Aug 2024
To top off an awful day yesterday Cardiff picked up some injuries. It's possible that Ralls and Ramsey are out next Sunday and O'Dowda and Chambers were withdrawn as a precaution too. To round it off McGuiness was left out with rumours of him being sold.
Their keeper looks a bit dodgy as well.
Should we be confident or should we be nervous of a reaction to all of that on top of a 5-0 thrashing? |

Thread | What are you hoping for tomorrow
at 17:57 16 Aug 2024
Wil you take a win no matter what, 3 points is welcome even if the game is awful OR, do you want a good performance because if we keep putting in good performances the results will come?
Or are you a greedy sod, like me, who wants a good performance and 3 points!
When it comes down to it, I want to be entertained. It has been the lack of entertainment that has vexed me so much and seen my apathy levels top out. [Post edited 16 Aug 18:42]

Thread | Mortgage rates
at 16:04 11 Aug 2024
When we moved we took out a longer term fixed rate but for a bit of extra borrowing we took a 5 year fix which is up in 2 months. I was just looking at available deals and I'm grateful that rates came down recently.
The SVR is 8.49% apparently, we were paying 2.69%.it's a hefty jump that.
The question is did I make the right move because interest rates have dropped and may do so again but there was a 10 year fixed rate available that saw our repayments rise by just 24 quid so I took it. The SVR would have seen an ver 80 quid rise.
It's hard to know what todo withthis new government, will they be good for the economy and see rates continue to drop or will things turn rough again?

They are making a fuss, demanding more moeny form the Senedd and one of them, a Soprano, is on Welsh politics this morning saying Westminster should agree an emergency funding package to safeguard jobs, seriously...WTF?
They can't safeguard TATA jobs, they can't safeguard the NHS, schools, police or social care and rhe Opera demand more money from government.
I say they can go forth and multiply. There are far more important things than jobs for a few hundred people that only a few thousand go to watch. |

Thread | More Westminster F-wittery

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-68740332
In what world is it ok to give other peoples data out these days? Let alone giving out other Mp's private numbers. Bad enough he did it but then apparently 2 MP's responded to naked pictures by sending pictures of themselves! Westminster if full of F-wits! They need to be removed.
This Wragg, of he had any clue at all, onstead of doing as he did, he should have gone straight to the security services and reported this. National security has to come before whtever compromising info they had on him. That was probably pictures he'd sent back anyway the total cockwomble. After reporting to the security services he should then have resigned immediately.
Instead he's still in post and Jeremy Chunt is praising him for apologising!
Never mind a general election, if he hasn't resigned the Tory idiots should have suspended him.
If you cannot trust an MP to know about data protection then they should never be allowed to be an MP.

Thread | Aid workers killed

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-68729082
My personal belief is that Israel did it on purpose. They don't want aid reaching Gaza because their intention is to wipe it out completely, they want those that aren't killed to leave so there is no more Muslim presence there.
And please, of you can't be sensible, don't post. It's ruining the forum and preventing decent debate. |
