  1. This is Soule and Roma all over again.
  2. Same. Not keen on it.
  3. Oh my word. That's horrific
  4. I'm so confused.
  5. Actually harsh on Derby as they were in the ascendancy before Blackburn scored their 2nd. Now they'll lose. Oh well.

    UK Riots

  7. How do you know we didn't? Maybe Hamer was too expensive, or didn't want to move to us...

    UK Riots

    Disgusting
  9. Don't mind it.
  10. Well, I haven't missed Don Goodman at all
  11. Like a new signing! This is one of the 3 or 4 Cooper wants
  12. USA men's were shocking in the 4x100m
  13. One of the commentators was explaining it earlier. Very briefly and very quickly, I could barely keep up Something about one of the pair racing and the other resting, and there's a blue line they have to stay behind and after X amount of laps they usher in their partner to take on the racing. Then they get extra points for lapping someone I think? Quite complicated to keep up with!

    UK Riots

    I've only quoted this but because I agree with the rest of your post. So don't want you to think I'm being dismissive. Far from it. But, I don't think anyone here has ever been entirely dismissive of the discussion. The discussion is up for debate. As it rightly should be. What isn't a negotiable, though, is the way to go about putting a point across. One that does not involve violence as you've stated. I'm sure any MP or local councillor (apart from that one in Dartford) is up for any discussion about issues affecting their constituents, even if immigration can be a sensitive subject. But one that should be approached. But I'm willing to put good money on the majority of individuals that attended those riots at the weekend have not done that. I cannot prove it, but I'd be surprised if they have followed that course and then found themselves frustrated by it all. They've been whipped up into a frenzy that has escalated to violent outbursts thanks to the very thing that their superiors (for lack of a better word) like to moan about - the media. Farage, Tice, Tate etc moan about the media, but they themselves use such media to spark fear into their followers. It worked, sadly. But I don't think it'll work again. Thanks to communities showing their togetherness and strength by being united. Closing that division by coming together against views expressed in a violent and unsavoury way. I know it's a cliché but what I've seen throughout the week is what makes me proud to live here - the pure resilience and refusal to be beaten by hate, and the emphasis of showing that what brings us together is stronger than that which divides us. And also thanks to strong and quick resolutions - tough sentencing used as a deterrent to future protests. Maybe, just maybe, it'll make some individuals (on both sides) that were thinking of resorting to violence take even just one step back and think again.
  15. Will be their Almiron replacement. And a good one at that in that Newcastle side.
  16. Spain hammering France in the football final.
  17. Of course. They set a valuation and if a team meets in then fair enough. I think what annoys me most is how teams can spend those obscene amounts. Chelsea are the biggest culprits. It's like they have an endless pit.
  18. Heard the club expected it to be done and dusted today. Feyenoord still quite interested.
  19. Sounds very positive from comments I've seen! Maybe we, collectively as a fanbase, just need to get behind him and see what he can deliver under challenging circumstances. His desire to breed positivity within the club is welcome. Can clearly recognise he has a passion to succeed here, whatever his past has been. And also judging from comments I like that he's willing to challenge some things the club do and stamp his authority in a respectful way.
  20. Spanner in the works?
  21. Cleared cache, cookies and browsing data. And lots of other stuff off my phone. Issue still occurring
