And can also play at left back so if we lose Andy we could also afford to lose Tsimikas and use
him as a rotation option for both Kerkes and Virg

My worry with Slot using the same small number of player so often is that those key players are now exhausted at the key part of the season and the rotation players aren’t in form because they have played so
little.

Agreed. I don’t really mind losing to Newcastle, I like their fans. I haven’t liked watching our poor performance at all though.

We all expected Southampton to score first didn’t we? Glad we got the result and really pleased for Darwin.
Looking to tomorrow’s game now and hoping Arsenal drop some more points. Feels dirty wanting United to with though lol.

It is ABSOLUTELY imperative that we do not allow our government to go ahead with their plans for AI.

It’s very clear that they have ZERO desire to avoid the problems that rolling it out without regulation will inevitably cause.

We need to push back on this.

I was diagnosed with severe #OCD and #anxiety when I was 17. Over the years I’ve been so fed up and hurt by the amount of people who think OCD is just about being clean and tidy. So, I decided to write a book about it…

Well done Plymouth. A deserved win. Liverpool lacked intensity and were sloppy in possession. None of the fringe senior players stepped up today. A poor performance by Liverpool but credit where it’s due-Plymouth were the better team today. #LFC

A quote from the writer AR Moxon from 2017. He wrote:

"Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed. That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore. They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after.
Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?"

I’ve not come across that before. If it was one school I’d see it as a red flag but I see from your response to someone else it’s more. Maybe it’s a new local authority policy in your area or a particular academy trust policy?
People can still visit schools as prospective candidates in my area.
