Bit fucking harsh.

Alanis Morissette still belting them out - bit fuller but still has it.

Jo Whiley is looking well for being a week off 60.

Not me but my mams best friends daughter who I grew up with has been given a year to live, only 45 with two young daughters. Im here worrying about being a bit over weight, not sure it’s worth the stress tbh. Might get fat as fuck and happy.

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/jun/27/keir-starmer-says-he-deeply-regrets-island-of-strangers-speech Here you go Renton, he regrets the immigration speech. Too busy trying to sound like an immigration hard lad to actually stop and think about the words that were coming out of his gob.

Is it too much to hope we have a buyback option on him given he'd love to play here again? I don't anything like that being reported at the time though.

I get what people are saying about Elanga, may main concern is him not being a one season wonder. But he's certainly got the attributes to be a consistently great player. If we get him for around 50M it's a great buy imo, proven at this level, hard working, very much fits into how Howe likes to play, will provide the dept we need with CL games etc. If we pay north of 60M you start wondering if we're getting value for money. I hope there's enough interest in Longstaff/Willock to generate a 25-30M fee allowing us to strengthen in CM too, maybe get an upcoming creative playmaker from Europe to get the juices flowing here

Nah it's the plant just like normal. It's illegal to smoke it but you use a vape.

I assume it's in pill form like?

I'm on medical grade baby. You haven't had a conversation with a doctor until you've heard them say the words "green kush" with a straight face.

it’s a good question. Could a single state Israel have existed in peace without the displacement of so many Palestinian Arabs? Fuck knows. FWIW, I think Palestinian Israelis (a sizeable chunk of israel’s population) enjoy a much better life than those poor sods in Gaza.

Meslier leaving Leeds. They'll be in for Pope I should think

The real issue I have isn't with which state belongs where, it's that many hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were forcibly kicked out of their actual homes. Their whole lives were stolen. Surely there was a better way. Surely integration was that way.

It’s the land Jews were forced to flee from by the Romans. There has always been a cultural and religious connection. Jewish people have always lived there (in numbers massively diminished, of course) and Jews were “returning” there long before 1948. But it’s a classic example of how territory is carved up post-war. Decisions are taken to over how to deal with the spoils of war; new borders are established with little thought given to long term implications. See Kashmir etc etc

Is that the posh word for fists?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_a_Jewish_state Bloody hell- not many places proposed where you’d actually want to live.

Admittedly, my knowledge of how they came to choose Israel as the place is lacking, but surely just after the war, when Europe was being redrawn, they could’ve made somewhere in Europe as the Jewish homeland that wasn’t surrounded by Arabs? I don’t know- southern Italy, Gibraltar, anywhere other than slap-bang in the middle of the Arab world?

I guess style isn’t for everyone.

It’s like i said - all the biggest cunts in the region wanted/needed the conflict to escalate to further their own ambitions.

Am not generally believing of conspiracy theories but reckon this one probably holds. I mean howay, Mossad manged to infiltrate hezbollah with hundreds of pager bombs but didn't spot this coming?

To clarify, it's an opinion I held before Syed. It also concerns me there will be high ranking people in the US who believe in the rapture who would like to make armageddon a self fulfilling prophecy. They really believe this shit.

You simply cannot take anyone serious who brings a lotto shirt to a gun fight tbh

i like it. Would have been better with the round orange 1980s nufc crest that we had on last season’s white and green kit

yeah. I think you’re right, and it makes footballing if not financial sense. Agree with those who question whether Elanga is worth £60m mind. And it’ll be interesting to see if the PL-ready signings still have to wait on the sidelines until they’re “Eddie ready” too. Or if these rumours are a load of shit and we eventually reveal a load of signings from abroad that no one saw coming as we did when Amanda was running tings
