Where are those figures from? Certainly not UN figures which are broadly in line with Gaza's own calculations? EDIT: Sorry, I thought I put men, women and children in my original post.

Todays Pensioners are literally the wealthiest generation to ever live - I see absolutely no reasons why they should get given money WITHOUT means testing. Nobody else gets given money without means testing including the very poorest in society, so it makes perfect sense to me to at least means test the wealthiest generation before giving them hand-outs. Fact is 85% of over 65's vote Tory, so it was always going to cause a storm.

Got to remember, those Pagers and Walkie Talkies mamed about 1000 Hezbollah members, probably high-ups responsible for logistics and communications. That will definitely have an impact on front line fighters.

Not at all, just highlighting the reasons why Israel can now literally please themselves and get away with stuff they definitely shouldn't.

Lots of Western help, lots of Western finance and munitions, the development of Iron Dome and an instance by Major Western powers that Israel can basically do what they want, when they want and that invading several countries and territories in the space of a year, plus assassinating people in several other countries is not in any way provocation. (Let alone wiping 45,000 women and children off the map and subjecting an entire population to illegal and increasing occupation for 70 years).

Yes, sadly. Last 3 evenings for an hour or so.

Is it time to change the title of this thread to 'The Running Thread'?

Strange how words lose their meaning, such as 'unprovoked'.

This. People blag interviews all the time, in fact it's the shittest way to determine if somebody is right for a job or not - trust me, come to my workplace. You can train for an interview, you can get really, really good at them, but it in no way means you are suitable for the job you are applying for or not.

Still find it weird that people think Maresca = Definite Relegation. There has never been any evidence for that. Sure, the football and philosophy was riskier but at least they actually played and the players were committed to it 100%. How anyone thought we'd be better of with a dinosoar like Cooper in charge is beyond me. This idea that a promoted team must play mindless ****ing hoofball to stay in the league is a myth.

Always find this time of year difficult in terms of layering. Went out this morning in a long-sleeve Ron-Hill with thin windbreaker/water resistant jacket on top and was way, way too warm.

GIVE HIM TIME

He's ****ing bobbins. How he played for Fulham so often is a mystery to me.

Bilal really is an odd one. He's a 'luxury player', which seems odd considering we were apparently restricted by FFP and that was the reason we had to get Cooper in on the cheap.

Cooper isn't a victim. Unless you consider Rudkin and Top placing a bloke in a position well out of his depth as victimisation. The criticism is all of his own making so far...

100%

If it wasn't for Mads then we could well have seen 8 get put past us.

Which fair enough may have played a part, but if Corborans release clause really was only £2m and then we went on to spend the kind of money we did on player transfers (some of which the value certainly remains to be seen) then the questions do need to be asked.

That did happen, but I think it had more to do with the fact that out of all the names banded around and the candidates the club spoke with, it was by far the most lazy, uninspiring and cheapskate option.

Unbelievable talent.

But only if he does his press conferences in the style of Mandaric

I can appreciate that viewpoint and I don't wholly disagree, but I was just picking you up on the point about people digging him out because he's ex-Forest. I just don't think that's there and I haven't such much evidence of it (on here at least, I can't speak for the general match-going public)

Speaks Volumes that young Bueno looks like he's trying his absolute hardest and yet is only here on a season-long loan.

Trouble is, I'll believe that when I see it. I genuinely think they run on different time to us. They won't leave it as long as Brendan but I bet they still leave it well beyond the point where it turns really toxic.

Nope, not at all. My argument is purely pointing out that there are some right deluded ghouls on here that are so stuck in pre-Premeier League era they no longer understand football.
