Fair play if you are playing it on the trombone 😊

How low down the pyramid will you go?

Chester FC - NLN ?

Just for completeness where are the Greens in this poll and who will they likely take votes from

Tony Jackson @rocketcfc.bsky.social · 17d

I’ve also switched.

@queitriotpod.bsky.social suits me perfectly. A sensible explanation and interpretation of the key talking points

What is the explanation for why VAT is not currently charged on flying?

What would the effect be if this suggestion was implemented?

How much will Liverpool need to pay to sign Guehi in January (and will Palace be able to say No)

I appreciate that a lot of people don’t drive but doesn’t my driving licence fulfil all the requirements of an ID card?

Why would I need something else as well

You think they would at least clarify whether it is a European or African swallow

Ridiculous that Porridge is somehow being completely ignored

Haven’t played conkers for over 50 years but still enjoy this time of year.

Love opening a green casing to look for the largest conker I can find

This week I found one with 5 separate conkers (all fully formed) inside

Wish I’d taken a picture as nobody believes me 😊

Aren’t their breaches similar to Man City (but on a smaller scale?)

A (sizeable) points deduction for Chelsea should be appropriate but I’m still expecting City to somehow escape a meaningful penalty

Something to do with the rules of the competition apparently

NL teams have to meet certain criteria around starting line ups (Seniors v Youngsters)

Tamworth made 3 changes in second minute

Tony Jackson @rocketcfc.bsky.social · Sep 17

This really needs an explanation.

Maybe the four players were contractually guaranteed to start a game?

Or they were supporters who paid to be a starter for one game (an interesting money earner)

I think that the pumps are now designed to counter this. Seems increasingly difficult to stop on an exact pound - or am I just getting old ?

Tony Jackson @rocketcfc.bsky.social · Sep 11

Of course the answer will be Yes

Money talks - especially in brown envelopes

Tony Jackson @rocketcfc.bsky.social · Sep 11

There is absolutely no financial punishment that will be sufficient to cause Chelsea (or Man City) any discomfort.

If guilty they must be deducted points (or even demoted)

I’m not optimistic…

To be honest I’m not following you for the gardening tips 😂 but this is a timely reminder of one of my jobs to do. 👍

Tony Jackson @rocketcfc.bsky.social · Sep 7

It has never been the same since I left c40 years ago 😂

Not only must the result stand but Wealdstone must also be docked points.

Failure to do so will result in an incredibly far ranging precedent

On the basis that her resignation / sacking could have happened any day over a 2 week period the timing does appear to have been timed to perfection. 😂

“Is it a proper pie?” is a question we now always ask in any pub / restaurant before ordering.

One of our favourite restaurants did pie in a dish with a pastry lid and we complained every time 😂

If Pep had Man City doing this the media would be describing it as a tactical master class 😂

👍 Good man

Pleased to have played my (small) part in finally getting a Lib Dem MP elected in my constituency

Don’t be complacent 😊

Any Green, Labour or Independent candidate will eat into your share of the vote

Was he still at the top in the pre season fitness / running stats?

Always used to be
