  1. Watch this key detail get lost in the maelstrom of outrage.
  2. I continue to appreciate this thread @LongTimeAdmirer. Cheers đź‘Ť
  3. Agreed, we're missing Gordon's influence on the wing. Do we have anyone else who can play up top though?
  4. This is absolutely cringe inducing at this point.
  5. Because those countries can't sustain that influx of people, and moreover it isn't their responsibility to do so. As for Hamas, they are a terrorist organisation that relies on continued strife to function. If there is no continued strife, they don't have a lot going for them.
  6. Just to be really clear G&T, as an ardent left winger, I do not consider myself to be "abandoning my Jewish friends". I think advocating for an end to Israeli oppression of Palestine is the only way any of the people on either side of this can ever become safe and live without the spectre of death hanging over them. I may be 'wrong' in my interpretation of that but it is 100% motivated by the desire for to protect the lives and humanity of both sides. It's not an either/or, it's "both".
  7. What is the penalty if we breach FFP btw?
  8. PIF should buy a stake in various firms that sponsor other premier league clubs and force them all to go through the same shit they're asking us to do. This all feels fanciful from the PL to be honest because so far we've been entirely clean about this as far as I can tell, and in the end if we really wanted to start screwing them, we would find a way.
  9. Even I'm struggling to have sympathy with him. At some point in that continuous cycle of decline and poor judgment he should have stood up and done something to stop it. It's all well and good saying he's see everything correctly now, and I hope he is, but he took a long fucking time to do it. His journey in life may be much better from here, but he destroyed himself despite the efforts of a great many people around him. At least he seems to acknowledge that on some level. Hope he's a better father than he was a professional.
  10. I see this thread has gone in a very traditional TT direction.
  11. I thought we played well, did what we could, but between injuries to key players and Dortmund just being a very good team, we couldn't find a way through. The commentators kept going on about how we needed to win this game etc but I was just sat there proud of the team and enjoying it. First time back in 20 years, who gives a shit really if we qualify or not. Still fancy us to beat Milan anyway so should get 3rd at least. Tino MOTM on our side, looks a really good player.
  12. Never a booking on Hall. Honestly think we've been decent overall though except for the goal which was a bit of a mess. I can see us scoring tbh.
  13. If we were full strength I'd fancy us to be making a serious run at being 'best of the rest' this season tbh.
  14. Well that's been a pretty fantastic weekend of results for us!
  15. Superb player. I feel like he would walk straight into most back lines in the top ten tbh. Are there any better ball playing CBs in the league? Not for my money.

    Eddie Howe

    Totally agree, and I ended up thinking this yesterday myself. He's the best manager we've had in the PL era and that is no disrespect to the monumental achievements of Robson and Keegan, but simply speaks volumes as to how incredibly good Howe is. I hope he's here for the next decade or more frankly.
  17. They didn't even lose 3 points man, they lost 1. Is this really that big a deal? They may not like it but the logic behind the decisions is clear as day. They have to find a clear reason to chalk it off, they couldn't, it's done. I would assume at some point in history Arsenal sat down and approved that particular rule/failed to raise an objection when all this was coming out, so they have absolutely no leg to stand on. The Liverpool one was totally different because that was a bit of a fuck up based on human error in process, but this is VAR doing what it's meant to do by the book.
  18. Aye, absolutely love Gordon. Really intelligent player with a lot of skill, energy and passion. Post game interview when he was talking about how he used to obsess about goals and assists and now just focuses on being trustworthy for the manager. Love it. Great attitude.
  19. Fractures forming in global Jewish communities over this. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/04/us-jews-rift-gaza-israel-crisis
  20. That's fair enough but he'll get my vote when he grows a pair. I'm just too angry to do everyone on the other side of our leanings the kindness to moving on.
  21. Well I sway between spoiling my ballot and voting for a party that I feel is well enough aligned. Either way it gets counted.
  22. And it will remain that way forever if we keep making the choice you've outlined. I am just beyond it now.
  23. I'll make a call on what I'm voting for after manifesto release tbf, and if Labour actually stick PR or something in there I'll snap back to them without question. Reality is though I have the luxury of being able to take a principled stance this time because Labour are on course for an absolute landslide. Consequently I would argue that my views are best served by being a vote Starmer lost, rather than one he was able to take for granted. Sends a louder message I think (not that I personally have any relevance at all).
