Thistle_do_nicely Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 15 hours ago, Cerberus said: Someone writing for the Telegraph called Ambrose Evans-Pritchard says that the weak Pound is splendid for exports. He's delighted to be setting Britain back years so his Tory buddies can make a few extra bob hawking their cheap gee-gaws. Ambrose Evans-Pritchard sounds like a name you'd hear belonging to a sand dancing winger in a match between Luton and Burton Albion or something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz FFC Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Read that Liverpool FC had lost £35M so I'd imagine the "greatest league in the history of the world ever" will count the cost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Coates may be more worried about his gambling operations in Gibraltar than the football club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how did he get one? I presume he applied and was given the OK. Has the infrastructure been put in place for the EU stars to get one before April - they don't need one now but will then if there isn't a deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be fine. I'm sure you're right. Extending the point to the plebs, though, what do you think they'll do with all the others if we fall off the cliff? They won't be eligible to work in this country. The EU is their work permit. A unilateral amnesty of some sort? Has anyone in charge even thought this through? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
