So it would seem Per and Arsene share an unlikely common bond
Did you see John McDonnell claiming that Corbyn was the Arsene Wenger of politics yesterday?
I didnt but it's a very good analogy
Neither knows how to knot a tie, I suppose.
Yes. If you leave out AW's legendary loyalty, widespread respect throughout his profession and -
oh yes - track record of success.
I love McDonnell, too. Although I suspect for different reasons. http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/xmashehe1.gif
Abbott's still good for a laugh, though. Her interview on Newsnight last night wasn't so much a car crash as a 52-vehicle pile-up. Even her favourite, talking-to-a-backwards-child-having-a-tantrum soothing tones weren't saving her.
On records of success, hows the elimination of the budget deficit going?
I'm not defending Dianne Abbot, mind
I could have sworn we were discussing Jeremy Corbyn and Arsene Wenger?
You'll knacker your clutch if you keep trying to change gear like that, j. http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/xmashehe1.gif
I must say, you sound relatively chipper for a man who's endured the darts.
Clearly there's something to be said for watered-down lager
And there was me thinking about accusing you of whataboutery over Abbot
What do you know about gears in your automatic Passat estate?
Subtle Guardiola rebuttal in that subtext.
My car is neither an automatic nor an estate. It's a sleek, black manual love machine.
When I say 'manual love', I mean its gearbox, not that I...oh, never mind.

To be frank I think I may still be pissed from the scotch.
There was ever such a lot of scotch, b.
I'm currently being very good and sticking rigidly to my half a bottle a night regime.
I mean it's only been three days, but it's not too bad.
There are some fine automatic estates.
Although we tend to refer to them as 'tourers' these days.
Yes. One must make a gesture at this time of year, don't you think?
No. Wine. Quite a light, fruity red at that. :-(
Golly. I don't quite know what to say, b.
Possibly. Although it is interesting that, if I don't have the bottle sitting right there in front
of me, just how much less inclined I am to guzzle the whole f**king thing I am.
Odd.
I'm not a man averse to an estate but I do draw the line at automatics
You might as well have a chauffeur
