@RBooth9 @dcfcGeorge84 Said exactly the same during the game. They will suit League 1 down to the ground.

Can’t remember a more mardy team at Pride Park than Oxford.
The ref was shocking, admittedly, but chasing him round and spitting their dummy out constantly was embarrassing.
Brannagan would be a good player if he tried to play football rather than ref the game! #dcfc

@MarieTidball You lefties always seem to conveniently forget the Global Pandemic, when it suits your purpose, of course.
In the meantime unemployment rises to record levels, massively up since you got into power.

@markofagenius You are such a deluded man. Just enjoy your football team getting back to the Prem and stop spouting this rubbish.

@DesmondSwayne Utter garbage. You’d have had to be on a pretty low wage all your life and live a very long time to make that sum work.
Look at the UK pension vs other European countries you plonker and tell me if that looks generous.

If, like me, you were born in 1956, you’ll receive almost £300,000 more in benefits than you’ll pay in taxes in your lifetime
State Pensions make up a huge chunk of that
Long term, we simply can’t afford to sustain the Triple Lock’s generosity

@FBAwayDays Attendances ‘down’ the football pyramid would increase further; who wants to watch that turgid shit?

@NerineHalton Do you ignore the polls about his popularity? I bet you genuinely think it is false media news. Let me tell you, he is despised by the vast majority of British people and widely regarded as the worst PM in our lifetime.

Is the state pension really so 'meagre'? Let's take a look...
The basic state pension is just £12,547 a year. But...
Only around 15% of pensioners rely on the state pension alone. The vast majority have other income from private pensions etc., which is exactly how our system is designed to work (and why the UK has generous tax breaks for pension contributions).
The small proportion of pensioners whose only source of income is the state pension are entitled to other benefits in addition, including pension credit, housing benefit and council tax support.
A pensioner with no other income, no savings, no disabilities, no care responsibilities and rent of £800 per month is entitled to £401.55 a week in benefits including state pension, which is £20,881 a year.
For comparison, a full time minimum wage worker has an after tax income of £21,364. Unlike a pensioner, a full time minimum wage worker is not entitled to free travel, free prescriptions, a winter fuel payment or senior citizens discounts.
£21,000 a year is not a lot of money. But the very poorest pensioners have similar incomes to low-wage workers. Given the greater costs faced by those who are working, it's perhaps not surprising that working age adults are now more likely to live in poverty than pensioners.
And at the other end of the scale, one in four pensioners are millionaires and still receive the basic state pension, paid for by current tax payers (including those on minimum wage).
No one (definitely not me) is suggesting that the state pension should be reduced for the poorest pensioners. But pension spending now accounts for half of the UK's social security budget and, given the urgent need to cut government spending, we must consider reforms like means-testing and scrapping the triple lock.

“Reform’s commitment to keep the triple lock is the final nail in the coffin for the hope of pension reform from the Right. Britain’s young people are now condemned to pay through the nose for the retirement of the wealthiest generation in history.” ✍️👇 conservativehome.com/2026/04/08/mir…
