I hushed up the fact that I live in Lewisham or they wouldn't have let me near the place.

Everything that’s happening at SAFC at the minute, and the biggest topic on there by far is their NUFC thread. They get so big they have to open a new one monthly. This months has 1000 replies in 10 days

It’s about as easy to understand as someone being prepared to wait in a mile long queue for McDonald’s

EVERYONE'S RIGHT IN RAYVINLAND!

Mate it's those that are descended from the fucking English that are the problem. You can read my opinion a few pages back but what the anglos have done and contine to do to Australia's first nation people is inexcusable.

You get the distinct impression they’re attempting to stick to the timetable they had in place for the relaxation of lockdown regardless of the circumstances on the ground. With them trying to make the scientific evidence fit into that timetable instead of the former determining the latter. And the only thing as predictable as their not having proper plans to implement the relaxation is their blaming of teachers, unions etc for pointing out their failures.

One of the many funny things about them kicking off about this, especially in light of their ‘classy club’ deluded bollocks is that the clubs that voted to end the season now will have done so for a variety of different reasons. Some for the greater good, some for their own survival in financial terms and some because it was advantageous in terms of their league position and so on. But they’re all scum of course. Whereas the mackems voted purely in their own interest, but that’s ok. Obviously you can see why they did it but how the fuck does that make them any better than any of the other clubs and their reasons for voting as they did? One of the best bits was the talk of boycotting away games until someone pointed out there were only four clubs that voted to continue playing, including themselves

Aye… for now

”It’s my haaaaair iiiiiiisland!”

Pick your favourite contradiction. The importance of exercising in the fresh air has been reiterated throughout this, but it's also fine to have mile-long queues of cars with their engines idling while they wait for their Big Mac and fries. I like that one.

It's not even the week - it was saying the lockdown was starting on Monday and allowing pubs to have the Friday night - even that icing on the cake stupidity probably killed thousands.

Hold on. Cheltenham was undertaken whilst the government stated it wasn't a risk, before lockdown. The government has since released lockdown, effectively allowing for the gathering of large crowds, be that on Bournemouth beaches or around statues of slave traders. The government has said it is acceptable to travel hundreds of miles in a car with others, including children, whilst symptomatic, and to drive where the fuck you like to test your eyesight. The attorney general, who is supposed to be impartial, has publically stated this was not illegal, even during lockdown, so its surely okay now? What we needed was a societal response to the pandemic, but for that to work, we absolutely have to led by the government. They have completely failed to give that lead, so yes, now its entirely up to what each individual thinks is acceptable according to his or hers own risk. Clearly the demonstrators were happy to take the risk they did for them. Fair enough. They did nothing wrong, ask the government.

A Portsmouth vs Fleetwood playoff final would be just the job now. Their tiny brains would explode trying to work out who they want to go up least.

You could tell that by the phasing out of the furlough scheme and other support stuff - they want a "normal" economy by October come hell or highwater. Maybe they're betting everything on the Oxford vaccine and I really hope it works but if it doesn't we're fucked.

This particular wing of the left is the one that the culture warriors on the right use to discredit the rest of us. So you're right. Having said that, these guys are the first left wingers to land some actual blows on the right for quite some time now so I'm having a hard time not enjoying it on some level. What I find remarkable about this with statues coming down, TV shows being cancelled etc, is that it appears to be happening with no due process. The seas are just parting before the protesters. The implication of this is that the police and the government are running scared, that the BBC knew Little Britain was racist but we're only prepared to do something about it if 1m people started protesting through cities, that Sadiq Kahn needed widespread protests to awaken himself to the notion that statues in London needed review, etc. Now from the protesters POV it's a total win. From society's its a complete mess IMO. We can't have such flimsy governmental and institutional structures that they yield the first time a big protest comes onto the scene. They should have procedures in place to correct for this stuff through proper channels. And if they don't do it, we have to accept that this is the outcome dictated by the society we live in. Not taking action until a mass protest is carried out just makes them look weak as shit. I saw police running from collections of white 20 year olds throwing bottles and shit at them yesterday. What the fuck is the point in them then. We're seeing a mass discrediting of a number of institutions and I don't remotely understand how they've allowed themselves to get to this point. Why is it just now news to them that black people are angry? It's not. It's been news for fucking decades.

Sorry, what were we talking about again?

At least as they hurtle down through the leagues, they’ll be able to look back up with smiles and think of all the friends they’ve made on the way

Need something to do in lockdown.

What a town of fucking losers.

Still bitter about Nandy.

The rest of League One must be delighted at retaining their two cup finals for next season.

You've just reminded me that one of my more tangential celebrity encounters is having had a G&T in one of the House of Lords bars while Betty Boothroyd was sat at the next table over. Sadly I was still a massive pisshead at the time so I don't remember a great deal about it beyond that. (Much like most of the Lords really.) Defiinitely the cheapest round in London anyway.

"There are very fine people on both sides."

It’s ok to make comparisons with Europe regarding schools but not with the number of deaths

It's THERE'S. T-H-E-R-E-'-S !! Not theirs. Fucking Hell. It shouldn't even be theres, it's plural, it should be "there are loads of people." I'm not going on Avforums, chiefly because you cannot master simple English.

Revenge is a dish best served cold...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-52993734 And yet we only began quarantining arrival from abroad *checks notes*... two days ago.

This kind of equation grips my shit. It’s like cunts on fb and Twitter saying “what about cops killed by criminals”. Cummings is a member of the government, we have an expectation that the people making the rules abide by them. We also get annoyed when they lie through their fucking teeth about it. We don’t hold protesters sick of racism to the same standards for a reason.

The government line is that Labour and the unions etc criticised them for planning to open schools and are now criticising them for not doing that. Not true of course, the criticism is about how they’ve had to renege on the reopening of schools because it wasn’t properly planned.

I thought Kid Curry was great in it, and I wanted a watch like his. Now, off you fuck.

I think he’s great and it’s good that you’re getting into him but you don’t have to copy his lifestyle

Please somebody make this stop.

I've just seen their new chief exec is called J.Rodwell I mean, none of us could even write this shit.

Earl Grey tea, famously named after Jimmy Teabag

Rayvin, of all people. Adolf Hipster.

That also explains why you’ve not had kids

Solar powered one here.

That does sound like a good tip, cos that would have been me too. Definitely got a big enough pan and have floated the idea of curry at the weekend with the missus, and she's in. Will report back...

They need to come down, tbh. I mean Jimmy Hill did a great job for Coventry but are we supposed to forget about that ten minute delay? Pull it down. FTM.

That's right, know your place, boy.

'OWSABOUTTHATTHEN!

Pssst: Rayvin went to see Jimmy Savile when he was lying in state in that Leeds Hotel, pass it on.

Not knowing stuff is absolutely acceptable you can’t know everything. Commenting and pushing an opinion on stuff you know nothing about is shit however and from reading social media there are many people who take part in that.

I was going to say like. I get it though, there's a lot of information out there and you can't be expected to know everything, I just genuinely thought that was more common knowledge. Certainly wasn't something I was taught at school, though being the kind of kid who read atlases for fun probably helped.

We acquired Canada due to an insatiable appetite for beaver (wahey!) fur and its use in millinery

The guy Rhodesia was named after? Surely not

It is. Free entry, but you need to be able to swim.
