  1. He also highlighted environmental priorities, saying "All I wanna do is join the happy crowd behind the green door" Oh, sorry! I thought you meant Shakin' Stevens.
  2. What's the Serbo-Croat word for "shithouse"?
  3. Not watching the match, but just had a passing look at the stats...... Possession: 54% Newcastle Shots: 15-0 Milan On target: 7-0 Milan Corners: 4-0 Milan Has Rodgers been appointed Newcastle manager without me noticing?
  4. Yes. An unsurprising overview of the shocking state of recent UK governance would sum it up for me. So far, it's felt a bit shallow and lacking in analysis - but they've done well in getting a lot of people to speak quite openly, even if most of them have left frontline politics.
  5. The misspelling in the title of this thread always bugs me. It's not "R-U-N", it's "W-A-L-K".
  6. ....but then the Internet will reveal bone scans proving that he's actually 55 years old, so only eligible for the seniors tournament. Anyway, isn't it about time someone changed the thread title to "Tom Cannon officially signs on the sick"?
  7. Jamie Vardy hanging out at the event (14:07).....and that is Conrad Logan with him, isn't it? If so, I wonder if they're just mates or if he's hired Conrad as security. https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester-news/live-updates-radio-2-park-8756034?int_source=nba
  8. Funny how people see matches differently..... I thought he looked good, if unspectacular. Moved around the pitch well, giving teammates a passing option and then distributing calmly and accurately, even under pressure. Also got stuck into one or two challenges, including aerial duels. He looks increasingly confident and classy to me. I reckon he's going to be a big player for us this season.
  9. Best shop in Leicester. Disappointed that the "S" has only been covered up this time. It's usually removed completely. Maybe it was a bit of dynamic PR by the shop in getting Mr. Blunt to promote their brand?
  10. I've returned to Brand's statement to double-check my understanding of what he said: https://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/russell-brands-statement-full-ahead-30954760 (video also available). He wasn't saying that the different accusations were coordinated. He was saying that the two different media organisations (Times and Channel 4) were engaged in a coordinated MSM attack on him, on "these kind of spaces", his followers' voices etc. In other words, absolutely classic conspiracy theory fear-mongering about powerful interests having a mysterious "agenda" against him as a tribune of the people. Brand is an intelligent man who has worked in various forms of media for decades. He therefore knows that newspapers and TV channels sometimes conduct joint investigations. He is clearly dishonestly pretending that he doesn't know this in order to manipulate fearful, gullible people into seeing this as a conspiracy and supporting him in his hour of need. People can make up their own minds on the credibility of the accusations made against him. I watched the programme and found them pretty credible - and backed by secondary research into the credibility of the accusations and more wide-ranging circumstantial evidence. As others have said, that might not be sufficient evidence for charges to be brought against him - it rarely is in such cases and I don't know what can be done about that. But for me the very fact that he is dishonestly peddling conspiracy theories and fears of mysterious powers and agendas is evidence of him acting in bad faith to protect his personal position.
  11. Count yourself lucky that John Pantsil is no longer an LCFC player.
  12. Off the top of the table by 3.01pm. Fvck off, Preston!
