But it does send the villa even lower so every cloud has a silver lining and all that...

Bloody awful performance, ars. They just didn't seem up for it at all. it was dreadful. alisson and robertson were ok but apart from that they were rubbish. too easy to blame one player, but lovren had one of those lovren in a panic games that just spreads unease throughout the performance.

Mikel Arteta: Arsenal manager tests positive for coronavirus www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51865442I can't see County games going ahead for too much longer at this rate. How the f*** has this got so out of hand?

Mikel Arteta: Arsenal manager tests positive for coronavirus www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51865442I can't see County games going ahead for too much longer at this rate. How the f*** has this got so out of hand? How many times have we heard the Tory Party tell us of their belief in small government? In effect what they are telling us is of their libertarian belief that government should not butt into peoples lives and should not regulate beyond the barest minimum because we are all capable of making our own judgements. It is precisely this that allowed the deregulation of the financial markets in London which led to the deconstruction of all the regulations put in place to prevent a repeat of the financial crash of the 1930's and with what result? The financial crash of 2008 that tanked the world economy, the effects of which we still feel. When I say "we" I don't of course mean everybody. The city remains largely unfettered by any regulation designed to curb its excesses and there are those suggesting that the conditions which led to the crash of 2008 are building once again. I don't of course mean the likes of Savid Javid who made a very lucrative living flogging the very derivatives that provoked the 2008 crisis in the first place and is now a member of the very government who relaxed the regulations in the first place. I don't of course mean Fred Goodwin then highly remunerated CEO of the Bank of Scotland who probably broke every law in the book whilst failing in his duty as a company Director to protect the business. Instead of languishing behind bars he is free to enjoy the remainder of his life with his investments and pension while the sick, the disabled, the unemployed, the poor and needy of this country continue to pay the price of Osborne's austerity measures officially designed to get us out of the financial mess that Gordon Brown is falsely accused of getting us in but unofficially was more to do with satisfying the Tory party's dogmatic view on the role of government. Why do I say that? Because Osborne's claim that this country could end up bankrupt like Greece was as brazen a lie as it's possible to imagine. This country was never a part of the Eurozone (thanks to one G. Brown who, as Chancellor of the Exchequer refused to join) which meant that we had full control of our own currency and could never have run out. Whilst there are consequences attendant upon printing more money (usually inflation) we could never have become bankrupt. And so to the present crisis. Take a party that doesn't believe in the role of Government, take a party who chooses an indolent, bone-idle chancer who wouldn't recognise the truth if it sneezed coronavirus into his face as its leader, vote it into office and you multiply the original problem. And it gets worse. We leave the European Medicines Agency at the end of January, we've already left the EU's bulk buying mechanism. The nett effect of this will be to potentially delay the introduction of vaccines into this country and to make them more expensive when we get them. Put simply, if you are a pharmaceutical company looking to sell expensively developed drugs where are you going to go first? Britain with a population of 65million potential customers or the EU, population 500million potential customers? Mmmm, tricky! I suspect that the real reason why the Government has been reluctant to limit movement in this country is that it knows damn well, despite assertions to the contrary that this country's economy is in no fit state to withstand the forthcoming shock. All it's left with as we sail off into the sunset with only ourselves to rely on is to hope for the best. That folks is what happens when your electoral system is so rigged in the favour of one party that a 1% swing in it's favour results in a 80 seat landslide victory. I suspect that it's likely to get worse before it gets better. I also have a feeling that we're about to find out what being "led" by and indolent, bone idle, lying chancer looks like and I equally suspect that it won't be pretty.

We are already in lockdown here. Only allowed out of your home to get food, medicine or to go to essential work that can’t be done at home. All schools are closed and in my school we are preparing for distance learning for the foreseeable future. Lots to do, Videoconferencing, setting online and exercise book activities, projects, daily individual q and a sessions, ensuring we also plan some activities that will take them away from the screen as we are aware that families will have to share devices. We will be informing children of their daily activities by 9am and taking a register based on them responding to this. It’s all a bit crazy! I’m a bit of a saddo so I’m actually looking forward to this in a way because it will be developing new concepts and techniques that can only enhance my own skill set.
Stay safe everyone.

So absolute crackers there (see what I did for December!!). I know I'm probably being biased as i'm also from Oldham but Scholes is the winner for me. He makes it look so effortless (on the reply from behind it's as if he's having a kick around with his mates) and did that on so many occasions.
