  1. I think we can all agree there was (and still remains) an absolutely MONUMENTAL cover-up. Also note that during this time, Fujitsu successfully sued the government for £700,000,000, because they cancelled another IT contract. Yet still to this day they are getting new business from HMG.
  2. The money didn't 'vanish', there was no fraud. The flawed Fujitsu Horizon accounts software created fake deficits. The Post Office then chased the subpostmasters for this 'money', even though no money had been stolen. And the poor buggers remortgaged their homes to pay back money they'd never taken in the first place. When subpostmasters complained, the Post Office said they were the ONLY ones who had got any problems with the Horizon system, which was obviously a lie. In its initial roll-out, the Horizon system meant that the Post Office went from prosecuting approx. 5 people per year for fraud to approx. 60 per year. But still no one thought it might have an odd bug or three........... But be honest, who's surprised? The country's run on a diet of greed and blaming the 'small' people. Everyone knows I can't get a dental appointment because of the bloke who just landed on a Kent beach, obvious innit.
  3. Ian Hislop cut-off on ITV's Peston just now whilst tearing Jake Berry a new one. 👊🏻 I wonder where former PO & ITV executve Adam Crozier is hiding currenly?
  4. I'll eat Paul Warne's bobble hat if anyonevat the top goes to jail. These leeches spend their waking hours covering their arses. They also have special 'phones, on which WhatsApp messages mysteriously disappear.
  5. Best thing that could have happened to an iPhone, (apart from it happening 3½ hours earlier).
  6. Ironic that Ward appeared to be a lone shining light in our pre-season friendlies, but after an early injur, has been utter crap.
  7. Also bear in mind that the phantom 'losses' which were repaid by some of those accused went in the Post Office's profit figures!
  8. Just tell them you're a fruit picker and your caravan hasn't got an official address yet!
  9. I've known about this scandal for a few years and really can't understand why its taken a TV drama to get the government to really do something right for a change, (oh, hang-on)................... HM government are still using Fujitsu for NEW government IT/support services too! Make your own mind up.
  10. Dunno, but plenty of folk who really ought to have paid more attention at school still vote for them in droves.
  11. One Life A great story (especially given the current state of politics) and Hopkins is brilliant. Matěj Vydra 8/10
  12. I'd like to se us start with JJ. Hopefully we'd be out of sight before HT.
  13. I've said it before, (on the match thread). Bird would look ten times the player in a good side, we're not in division three because we're a good side!
  14. We can't afford to get rid of anyone.
  15. If we'd only have drawn at their place (they did go ahead remember) and scraped a draw today, we'd still be worse off. They battered us.
  16. He was hopless. Most overated Derby 'prodige' in ages. Shows how short we are in midfield.
  17. It's about fireworks, not your bowel movements.
  18. When was the last time we won when 'live on Sky'? Probably completely unfounded, but I honestly can't remember!
  19. Not strange at all, it means punters have seen our form and have put serious wonga down for us to win, (that's how bookmaking works).
  20. Yes, but there was a lot less swinging about! 😢
