I remember Italia 1990. They were outstanding then and were in subsequent tournaments until this recent decade. Somehow Italy have simply faded away. -
One thing I've learned in the years I've been on here is, don't start meaningless topics. You'll get smashed.

And?

It's what you do with it that counts. 99% possession doesn't win games. Goals do. I hope he (and you) understand that.

If we, as supporters are so understandably negative about this, given what we know about his track record, imagine what the players are thinking having experienced the clueless tactics of Cifuentes, RVN and Cooper He's got a huge task to get them on board. From what I've seen of him in interviews he has the charisma of a frog. He must be hung like a donkey to pull Lucy Pinder. Mind you, having said that, she's hardly a MENSA candidate.

I tried to retain the belief that the beautiful game was still a thing. Sadly, the vast sums of money involved has created the corruption we see now . No multinational sport will escape the value of money that can be made. I watch most sports but I am increasingly aware of bias towards wealthy corporate sponsors who demand success in return for results. That's where corruption creeps in. No success = no money. Success at all cost -

I was in denial about corruption in football. This tournament is about to change my mind. -

Expert referee analyst apparently -
Mrs P objected purely on the basis that it's June. I said so, if it was 16deg in February you'd want the heating on? If it's cold, it's cold.

Simply no. She can't maintain any level of connectivity or a basic relationship with anyone, even us. We're constantly subject to threats to harm or attack us via voicemails (We've blocked her on our phones but voicemails still get through). It's constant Her MH team are aware. But are unable to stop her. 100 plus vile messages today alone. Tomorrow, the same..

This Trump charade had made me dislike America even more. -
Yes, up to a point. My daughter has a range of MH disorders and is incapable of working and relies entirely on PiP and other benefits. She won't leave her flat. She has diagnosed paranoia and suffers with sociopathic disorder which, combined with paranoia, means she feels everyone outside is going to do her harm so she becomes ultra defensive and that results in aggression to others because she is scared of them, albeit being irrational to you and me. She was called in for a re-assessment recently and the "professional" who assessed her decided that because she could apply her nail varnish herself meant she was capable of living independently and therefore didn't qualify for full PiP. Sadly the assessment process is deeply flawed. And so many vulnerable individuals are being let down just as equally many are working the system.
