You've not worked with wood, plasterboard using nails & screws then on a building site?

I've worked with wood but not on a building site, no.

Well said.

Eurovision is just a bit of daft fun. There is no place for politics in Eurovision, or any music for that matter.

One song that does stand out as quite good is Hurricane,

Is it about the fighter jet or the missile launcher?

I've never heard that load of tosh before.

What about several?

Surprised it's not at Brisbane Road or Tottenham?

I need a few more replies before I can draw any conclusions but it's looking good so far.

Top of the JES - can we please put this beef behind us and get the thread bac on track?

Too late, Starmer and Elphicke beat you to it.

How many is a few?

Genuinely the weirdest conflict I’ve ever seen on this board. And I’ve participated in the other nine in the top ten I totally agree this is in the top few conflicts I've witnessed on here, too. But I don't think it's really about this. It has the feeling of a domestic spat, when you know there's s...

I haven't changed anything - I can't help it if you can't read. I said they need a few hundred more on the gate but it was you that said 300 and I pointed out that they need more than that. A 1000 on average a game required to get near the money they would need for full time wages. So we're arguing...

This is tragic. You just typed they need an extra few hundred fans on the gate. That's what you typed. Are you saying you didn't type that? Or are you saying that you've changed your mind? I have never said they only need a few hundred extra fans. I just typed that the few extra hundred fans you cla...

Mate, you literally typed:

Excellent news but unless they find another few hundred on the gate every week they are going to struggle financially.

He'd have made a decent candidate. A loyal long-serving public servant who is willing to implement practical policies to avert the looming pensions crisis.

Too soon - the unkempt grey beard would have brought back too many painful memories of 2015-2020.

Excellent news but unless they find another few hundred on the gate every week they are going to struggle financially. 300 x £20 x 23 games = £138k. Small change to some local, wealthy families. So you think the difference between running a club part time in National South and full time in National...

Not sure anyone has claimed they have rich owners?

Based on the rumour I heard, no.

Sears is done at National League level, anyway.

Who was the first one? Dr Shipman?

These 'Labour Welcomes' tweets are pretty funny, tho.

Christ mate, let it go.

What are you getting so het up about? I've already said the Sears figure being bandied about on the terraces was ridiculous. And just that, a rumour doing the rounds.

Fair play to them, they're going to give it a proper go.

I of course look forward to being told that this isn't actually what happened though, by those in the know.

CLUB UPDATE Looking forward to the challenges that lie ahead IRON Manager Angelo Harrop and Chairman Lee Harding met up at the Rare Breed Meat Co Stadium on Thursday evening to discuss the forthcoming National League season. A positive discussion followed with the Club offering Angelo a new improve...

Why?

'THe division is going to be tougher next year' is pretty standard trope wheeled out every end of season.
