adios

I don't really agree with people about the front two right now. That side should have won by 3 or 4 on Saturday, but Gayle/Diamé had off days. Gayle at least has proven he can score at this level, and Diamé has looked ok to me the rare time I've seen him other than that match. Perez and Mitro haven't looked good this season for whatever reason, and Mitro didn't have the best time playing under Rafa for those 10 games last season. Also, Rafa thinks headed clearances from CDs are a strength of the English Leagues (Premiership at least) so he was always going to favour Gayle. Though then you can fairly ask the question, why the fuck did he keep/employ two big lumps?

Substitutes: Matz Sels, Chancel Mbemba, Achraf Lazaar, Isaac Hayden, Christian Atsu, Ayoze Perez, Aleksandar Mitrovic

Darlow! Watch him concede 2 howlers now.

Mick Lowes and John Anderson easily the best thing about this season. GREAT.

CT could teach them a few things.

I bet the Illuminati knew.

Quite nervous about this one. Any hope of a periscope?

After watching that documentary too ffs.

I reckon CT is probably conflating the (regular) bubble with the (unprecedented) crash, because he has nfi what 2008 actually meant.

Pointing out the irrationality of CT's arguments is like pointing out when your dog does a particularly messy shit tbh.

Also the key, and massive, difference between Sanders and Clinton is her corporate cronyism, getting money out of Politics. Which Obama campaigned on and could do fuck all about, but spent all his political capital on Health Care.

Must be my intelligent, analytical discourse. Didn't say further left btw, said as far left. I should, of course, go and back that up. You can argue semantics regarding the literal definition of ad hominem (and you are literally correct) but the core difference is attacking the person(s?), not the arguments. Which you've done quite a bit recently. Understand you're angry with the whole situation, just making a comparison. My opinions are mostly based on polls, not speculation, but of course, you may disagree with my conclusions.

This is the point, though. The DNC were worried enough about Sanders to try and sabotage his campaign. Without that, and Super Delegates, he was unbelievably close, in the US ffs. In spite of his age, and being Jewish while being critical of Israel. He would have beaten Trump too. So the US was ready for a candidate as far left as Corbyn, even with the thoroughly racist and backwards South and (to a lesser extent) Mid-West. Surely a more progressive Britain could do the same? As I've stated before, we're moving away from the centre, and unfortunately, I think the fear mongers will win, but it's probably a necessary evolution. The populace is going to be a lot more fired up by 2020. And you can't cry ad hominem with the vitriol you spew about Corbyn supporters (16yo kids etc.).

Would love to have seen him under even a half decent manager playing even half decent football.

Comparing Shearer to Ben Arfa is fucking ludicrous (on any front). People go overboard criticising the fat, lazy waste of space. People also go way overboard defending him. Quelle surprise!

What are your thoughts on Sanders nearly getting in in the US, @@Renton?

Not sure how I feel about this, especially if Pardew gets in. Wanted to see the Mackems down, Sam fail with England, Pardew relegate Palace. Jesus, we're a bitter lot.

If the worst comes to the worst, it's going to be a fucking entertaining end of the world.

1.5. Got a Dyson and not sure if the new TV is smart, but how the fuck is that middle class. Could be Mulberry/Samsonite in the house for all I know.

He has the best way of talking.

Don King. What an endorsement.

You're not in CO are you? Anecdotally I've been hearing some similarly worrying things, and I'd say Financial Republicans in particular are likely to vote for Trump. Although personally all my Republican mates are either abstaining or voting Johnson and are appalled by Trump. Have a couple Democrat mates voting Johnson too, which I think is daft, but whatever. So he'll obviously take a bunch of Republicans, I just don't think he has any hope with the middle ground/Independents. And he's completely fucked with the increasingly important minority voters. The GOP must be livid though, because I think a moderate Republican would wipe the floor with Hillary (Bush/Romney/maybe Rubio). Not sure if the likes of Cruz are even electable anymore.

He's honestly like a horrible cross of your senile grandma and an 8yo child.

Just finished watching it, very entertaining. Going to look at the analysis now. I honestly don't think he has even a remote shot. The really sad thing is, 40% of voters will still vote for him.
