Alex Warren - You'll Be Alright, Kid
These are some of the reviews I’ve been seeing I do think this album will age very well. Sales are not good but the true test will be once the hate dissipates and people give it a fair listen

The Reform Gammons and Hot Air Ltd thread
You and T boy are both making silly arguments by referring to adults voting certain ways. Just because an adult can be duped doesn’t mean you give a 7 yr old the vote. That’s just a bizarre way of thinking. It’s a literal fact that kids are more easily manipulated. We have restrictions for under 18’s on various things for a reason. We don’t say lower the age limit for alcohol because some adults can’t handle their drink. Tons of people have no independence at that age also and live with parents and often are influenced or even controlled by parents. Yes a 17 old is a child mate. A 19 yr old is an adult. Clubs, bars, casinos, movies have age limits for a reason. I assure you guys it’s much more ridiculous you want to give the vote to people who can’t even watch certain movies and maybe have never had a bill to pay in their life. Does that mean they’re not children? If something negative happened like a police officer breaking a 16 yr olds nose he’d be referred to as a child. And nobody would have an issue with it whether he was at college or working. That age is still a child. Yes we’ve had kids working in coal mines in the past but as you recently we extended education to 18. We also raised the age of marriage to 18. What’s the arguments for votes at 16? It’s their future? It’ll be their future in a few years when they can vote too They pay tax? So does a 7 yr old if they buy something. So does an overseas worker. Exempt 16-17 yr olds from tax? It’s good to get them engaged in politics? Is it? I don’t think kids should be immersed in politics but hey you can be engaged without voting Anything else? I don’t think there is much more. Nobody asked for it or needed it. It’s unpopular, unwanted and most people 16-17 aren’t that interested. What was the point? Who is it for? Also why is the limit 16? Why the need to change from 18 to 16 why not 15? What is the actual logic? I really don’t see any. Should we start letting 16 yr olds go on jury duty too? Absurd

It’s one of them ideas for the ‘progressives’ it’s like how do-gooders never really do any good. What progress has society made? We now know neuroscience on a big level. We know younger people are easily influenced and manipulated and haven’t fully developed critical thinking skills. We know better ways to spot groomers and protect children from predators. People use to marry 15 yr olds, there were 16 yr olds on page 3 of newspapers and now we recently made the age 18 to get married. All progress has been in that direction. So it’s just turning it on its head to claim a 16 yr old will be a suitable voting age. Just a pointless measure and one 16-17 yr olds themselves barely support. But if you ask those who support it they’d probably give the vote to someone here on a year visa too. I guess they’re paying tax too right? So yeah it’s no wonder the Tories kept winning when that’s the kind of crap Labour do when in power.

I don’t see why an intelligent 19 yr old wouldn’t be capable. Not like the previous people were doing a great job. Teenage years are not like 20’s or 30’s you grow a lot in a short space. How would anyone feel if we lowered the age of consent two years for example? We have an age of which you’re an adult and that should be the baseline for most things. https://yougov.co.uk/topics/politics/survey-results/daily/2025/07/17/32a3f/2

I think this is good. You need fresh ideas and younger people to move things in a better direction BBC NewsReform UK's George Finch, 19, becomes Warwickshire counci...The teenager was voted in as leader following a tie with Liberal Democrat nominee Jerry Roodhouse.

England keep making comebacks this tournament. Good goal and I’m sure England will win in extra time they’re a better team than Italy

Friday Chart Predictions
I’m talking real reviews. Critic reviews are just one persons opinion and they’re usually very pretentious. If you see people who listened to the album the reviews are almost all calling it an album of the year contender. That’s all you can go on for the quality of an album. If it’s targeted audience are happy with it and whether the casual listener is underwhelmed or more impressed with it than expected. People don’t consume the info I do but there was a lot of viral hate stories this week on social media painting his streams as fake and an Atlantic plant and trying to manufacture a career this definitely hurts interest.

Will be interesting to see how he does. Whether he was just a big fish in a small pond or not

Man United Supporters Thread Pt.II
Well he’s 24 and one month land his stats would be promising for a 21 yr old. You can see his career trajectory. He probably looked good with potential. Villarreal took a chance on him and he got 14 goals and has a decent season so Chelsea took a risk and overpaid hoping he might be a gem. But he wasn’t. He proved to be a liability more than a strength and just decent but not good enough. How does that get you a £50 mill move to Man Utd? No chance. He’s not good enough for a top club. There is a striker problem out there but I don’t think the response should be overpaying for mid level players. In the long term that will never work out well. I think Man Utd should stick with academy or youth prospects unless a genuinely good option is out there

Friday Chart Predictions
It’s much lower than I was expecting I can only assume the haters influenced people not to buy it because most reviews say it’s album of the year. For example I listened to Tyler’s album yesterday and every track was skippable and that’s now #1 everywhere so the quality doesn’t matter it seems. But I don’t personally buy physicals so I don’t know how that whole jig works. It still should get over 20k maybe but we shall see

Man United Supporters Thread Pt.II
Crazy take. He’s 24 and average that’s why Chelsea want to sell him. £50 mill please. He’s barely premier league standard
-
Friday Chart Predictions
Figures all round look a lil low. Maybe more missing data than usual. Maybe some physicals haven’t shipped yet for Alex too. Dior’s best days are Friday and Saturday so I’d say Eternity is a bigger threat than Dior because you don’t know how it’ll do tomorrow on Spotify whereas Dior guaranteed to be 250kish

Man United Supporters Thread Pt.II
He’s simply not good enough whether that be 15 mill or something higher but those figures are just outrageous
