    Don't think you can put this one down to brexit Dave.

    As for the story you posted, it's a 2 + 2 = 5 scenario. Typical archant **** stirring a perfect normal situation.

    I'm confused now, where have I suggested this has anything to do with brexit? It was in answer to a post also nothing to do with brexit!

    Sorry, posted on the wrong thread and I agree it's Archant trying to create a story out of nothing.

    What I'd really love is for us to thrash them whilst wearing the "bird poo" kit, see if they still think it's funny!

    Not sure that I agree that the effect of Brexit will be tiny at least in the short to medium term but this kind of supports the view that Brexit will be a convenient excuse.

    Looks like you were wrong Rob,

    Sorry Rob couldn't help posting this, just put it down to my lack of 'intellectual honesty' and dismiss it.

    All rather pathetic really, should 4 million peoples signatures really count enough to over rule 17 millions votes? 4 million is only about a 1/4 of those that voted to stay, surely this also indicates that there is a degree of acceptance from the other 3/4's?
    Will the vote to leave stand if the new vote were to attract less than 60% from less than 75% of the population? And must we keep voting until remain wins?

    This probably belongs on the Brexit thread, don't want this one to go into political melt down!

    Bah!

    Shame Rob couldn't just accept that he got some things wrong rather than disappearing from the forum.

    Still not convinced we are going to get the type of Brexit the public voted for. The establishment are desperate to try to square the circle of matching the public's expectation whilst maintaining their and big businesses interests of changing as little as possible. I'm starting to think a hard exit wouldn't be such a bad things. I think the EU and Germany / France in particular have as much if not more to lose than we do. In terms of football I don't think Brexit will change things much unless the PL / EFL choose to place limits on how many non UK players a team can have, which I think they should be able to do once we leave.

    and a few months on FTSE 250 almost at a 5 year high & well above the immediate post Brexit levels (now 18,455) , although I don't doubt it'll be up and down like a yoyo over the next few years

    Rob if you're lurking come back and post.
