  1. I think most times people have reacted to it in a way deemed disrespectful they've suffered a few injuries and a crushing defeat. I think the Wales reaction to it was the best one IMO.
  2. I think there are some benefits for his development with him being rotated as he is at the moment. It means he has to fill in different roles other than just the DM role which allows him to develop other skills (eg his passing) and will help him be a more complete player, which I think is already evident.
  3. I had a vaguely similar experience to this. We were staying in Marseille and quite close to an area with lots of Algerians living there. A kid tried to steal my phone out my pocket earlier in the day but when he saw me again later on with my Leicester shirt on they all came up shouting 'Mahrez!' and getting a photo with my shirt, even though it was a retro 90s one. Later on they helped shelter us when we were running down a street away from a group of Russians.
  4. He would obviously leave us but I do think he will stay at least til the end of this season, it's a bit different to Celtic as he had nothing else to achieve there (and no a treble treble is not a real thing)
  5. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/sep/30/monaco-found-winning-formula-leonardo-jardim-lyon-st-etienne article which talks about Monaco and slim with a fair bit of detail
  6. Our United result looks so poor now. Going to say if nothing drastically changes I would be disappointed to not finish top 4 having watched that shower of shit.

    Brexit!

    Being to the centre of the Tory party is definitely not centrist.

    Brexit!

    Sorry think I misinterpreted the comment. I thought they were talking about the MPs and cabinet who often get described as extremist but are not. I am on the left of the party but like it to be a broad church.

    Brexit!

    Sadly agree with most of this but they aren't left-wing extremists, and to be honest I think extremists should go with traitor etc in the words that purposefully incite hatred.

    Brexit!

    Saying it is hypocritical is completely missing the point of what I said. I said it is wrong for both sides to use such language, and to dismiss it as humbug is entirely unbefitting of the PM. One of the examples you used was apologised for, one I think was a serious point (although I disagree with it) and the Nazi one is obviously wrong and Lammy should have apologised/shouldn't have said it (if I remember correctly he doubled-down instead). Again I don't think the examples are that important - if the government agreed that such dangerous language shouldn't be used they would quite rightly be able to stop opposition politicians using them too. Instead they dismiss it. I find the elections you have decided to use as examples quite funny. Not exactly clean elections. I completely disagree about 'Surrender' bill. Using your view of it (which is different to mine), it is more a 'weakening your hand' bill, but that doesn't sound so good to the nationalists that comments like that are designed to attract. And that is the problem > it is hate promoting language (as are the McDonnell comments that have been brought up). By the way, and this isn't necessarily aimed at you - defending the Tory right to say what they want whilst also criticising things left politicians have said is equally hypocritical.

    Brexit!

    Regarding jobs - that has been tested quite a lot in different countries and there has been no loss in productivity except in one instance where tested. And education - I am private school educated and think their existence is a joke. Maybe their plans should be better fleshed out but private schools have had a ridiculously good deal for hundreds of years and should be abolished in the long run. EDIT: not saying by any means they are all good policies btw... just think "batshit" is a bit harsh and some of them could be developed into sound policy.

    This argument is infantile. They've both been guilty of it, that doesn't make it fine. Also from your list of words 'coup' was used by both sides, 'liar' is a fact, 'dictator' is a fair way of explaining the unlawful prorogation. Fair enough on 'fascist' although I don't think that's thrown around willy nilly. And the fact you are bringing up McDonnell quotes from 5 years ago shows that abuse shouldn't be accepted. Both sides have been guilty in the past but the debate was about moving forward, especially since the threat to politicians has been shown due to the murder of Jo Cox. To dismiss it as humbug is despicable.
  13. Nice to see how much Nacho was pressing for his goal.
  14. Problem is more that the panenka was shocking haha
  15. Ah I now see. Woosh
  16. Nacho on bench
  17. Good to see Amartey back in squad and Justin playing. Wish Benkovic was in squad but would rather him get some solid minutes for development squad than be an unused sub.
  18. Also if you do have to park on Freeman's Common get there early and use the last car park on the right once you've gone round the full circle, usually quite quick.
  19. For a lads trip definitely check out the pub I said above. Have fun
  20. I went to Cologne in February with my girlfriend and really enjoyed it. The Cathedral is definitely worth a visit. Also definitely go to the 'Lommi' or Lommerzheim if you like meat and a drink. Brilliant atmosphere, there's a queue outside each day when it opens so get down early to avoid missing out - https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g187371-d966510-Reviews-Lommerzheim-Cologne_North_Rhine_Westphalia.html. Can't recommend it enough.
  21. Can anyone send me a decent stream please?
  22. Haha we will see!
  23. What I like is that we can change our game plan really easily with the players in the squad if it isn’t working. Think we’ve bought and developed players really well last few seasons.
