Financing the stadium expansion is not subject to psr I assume that interest on borrowings that are show to be used for this purpose are deductible from the losses You have money due from Chelsea you can wait for it to come and borrow now to finance your expenses - and pay them back when the dosh arrives or you can borrow now against those guaranteed amounts to cover your expenses and not borrow now. What’s the difference? I reckon the instrest rate on the monies due from Chelsea are going to be lower as they are guaranteed. There is always the chance that the club could default on current borrowings so that rate would be higher.

I believe it’s likely to return next Friday ……. shame as he’d like to play at st Mary’s

Doesn’t say by how much I think it’s a given that over a three month period the historic medians are going to be exceeded. of course there will be places across the globe that will be colder than average but that’s going to be over a shorter period. Would be surprised if there are many places at all that record below average over a three month period. that’s where we are now

Why hasn’t anyone suggested talks with ISIS ? surely they can be our friends too ?

Non story covered yesterday in the finance thread

Was jezza ever a ‘friend ‘ of Hezbollah ??

Funnily enough - no ferrets involved think more David pleat meets Robbie fowler ….

If the rumours I’d heard about him were true then there’s no chance he gets the job

Now I’m a bit confused your point seems to back my point - did you miss the word ‘not’ in my comment ?

can’t defend the lack of joined up thinking

Not confirmed by the court yet currently still applications That’s not about propaganda - it’s legal argument and the last seventy years should have illustrated to anyone that Israel care not how they’re viewed when set against what they perceive to be their security I’d be surprised in modern warfare if IDF can avoid supplying some evidence if it’s requested and maintain that excuse.

I hadn't read that report either mac ! the two are not mutually exclusive btw - the IDF can fire at hezbollah and also attempt to take care not to hit UNIFIL soldiers. Have unifil said that there were no H fighters in close vicinity ?

wow You didn’t see the documentaries this week then what happened on oct 7 wasn’t warfare war is war and v ugly - if Israel has broken international law to the extent you say then the ICJ will charge them with genocide (I believe s Africa have now been given a cut off end this month to submit their evidence as they’d asked every month for an extension which has now been denied beyond oct 31 ) In addition the ICC has still not issued the summons against netenyahu and gallant). This is taking too long - the bar is set v low regarding the likelihood of a conviction regarding the court confirming a summons.

I’ve not seen a detailed account and explanation of what happened both today and yesterday I saw that two soldiers were injured after they fell from a viewing platform yesterday. And I’ve seen that today two soldiers were injured by exploding ordinance fired by the IDF. I’m guessing that the explanation will be that (perhaps conveniently) hezbollah fighters will be said to have been close to the UN sites/soldiers. Of course, that doesn’t mean that they have to fire at them but then again, in that scenario do you wait to be fired at first ????

Part of their mission is to assist the Lebanese army in ensuring that south of the litani remains free of Hezbollah and its weapons this has patently not happened - infact Hezbollah is more dug in than 2006 when UNIFIL began their current mission. They cannot have been oblivious to what was going on under their noses. They absolutely can make statements about being unable to fulfil their mission to assist 1701 being implemented.

Absolutely not incompetence and impotence isn’t about taking sides tbf, their mission involved other stuff which they may/may not have been any good at.

UNIFIL hasn’t managed to get in the way of Hezbollah’s weapons and fighters for 16 years which is effectively what it was put there for ……. 10,000 UNIFIL staff to maintain a demilitarised zone south of the litani …… what do you reckon ……… 2/10 at a push on the basis that they’ve been turning up for work and living away from home.

It’s just housekeeping maguire poses the only relevant question which is why would you choose now to tidy up all the old satisfied charges could be something could be nothing this happened 3 sept 2021 where we registered 6 charges as satisfied on the same day so most likely nothing

He’s not the messiah ……

Given her likely contribution I’d say her missing large chunks of the meetings can only be positive

If trump gets back then at least he can’t serve more than 4 years and it’s also a positive that he wouldn’t have had an 8 year straight stretch because he may have made a bigger mess of stuff if he had. I guess the question will be the make up of the senate and congress during his term.

My point is that it becomes tougher to challenge trump for his hyperbole and gerrymandered stuff when you’ve engaged in it yourself

Eg

Some chat in the media that a few clubs were happy to be able to stick to the narrative that they couldn’t spend any more than they were due to PSR now concerned that Man City’s challenge to APT, if successful to the extent that rules are changed, could cause fanbases to wonder why their owners aren’t putting more of their dosh into the club.

Would have been funnier watching him trying to work out where the front page is if they’d said yes!
