I think it was HMHM who said when he arrived that Osula had been bought as a ‘development striker’ ie, buy cheap, improve, sell for a profit. That’s something (irrespective of this particular player) that we need to do much more of as a club. It’s a fairly ridiculous state of affairs for a club that is as well backed as we are but we all know about PSR and how it’s stacked so it is what it is.

Based on what exactly? Both the main parties seem to be in terminal decline. I can see Labour sticking with Starmer or ditching him when it’s too late. They’re not brave enough to affect the sort of change that’ll counteract the help Reform will get from a complicit media who will / have switched horses since the Tories are in disarray. They’ll get plenty help from Musk and Co too you would think. At the very least they’ll have substantial amount of MPs unless something drastic happens. Do you honestly see Farage being held up to the same standards as Rayner? The last Tory government certainly wasn’t

He was 100% trying to hit the opposition player. Seen him try that v Lauren against Arsenal but he missed then too

Aye, looks fully cowied

Shipshape

My advice: take a paracetamol

I think organisations like the BBC now take the easy (and cheap) option of using social media to gauge fan opinions. Then you have the uber fans like Adam Pearson and Charlotte Robson who are there for that ‘hot take’ (actual analysis or insight not required). And I don’t know why anyone in the public eye would leave their comments turned on for their social media accounts, especially footballers.

Aye. The ref should risk sanction by not applying the letter of the law purely because it’s Liverpool. It’s only been a rule in football for about 20 years as well.

The Med event was long before modern humans were there after checking: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Messinian_salinity_crisis&wprov=rarw1 and the Zanclean flood: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zanclean_flood Still fucking terrifying to contemplate though

Actually wasn’t the Mediterranean a huge basin at one time that was flooded after the last (or a previous) ice age?

Probably several different catastrophes rather than one single event though, eg Santorini’s major eruption causing a Tsunami big enough to destroy the Minoan civilisation on Crete at that time.

Also there’s pretty concrete evidence of mega tsunamis caused by earthquakes creating massive landslides like the Storegga Slide off the coast of Norway. As well as inundating and destroying what was Doggerland it’s been estimated that it could have killed about a quarter of the population of Britain at that time as well as other parts of Northern Europe. I think I read or saw something about North Sea trawlers still finding evidence in their nets of human habitation like tools etc plus animal bones of land dwelling mammals and so on. As Dogger Bank is still heavily fished

Aye, I’ve seen the follow up one where the skinhead (who I think was only about 15 in the original one but looked fucking nails) is in the kitchen with his mam. And she was basically oblivious to his behaviour until she’d seen him on the telly

I’ve mentioned this before but it ties in a bit with the above. Basically skinheads v rockers in the town in the early 70s. Back when skinhead culture was all about ska and reggae and Harringtons and Doc Martens and chinning anyone with long hair

I think that’s Ekitiké out of their next league match isn’t it? One match domestic ban?

Fucking rat cunt

It’s a tough job but he’ll keep soldering on.

Same

If everyone is fit and it’s a really big game I would say 9/10 the front three is Gordon-Wissa-Elanga. How many league games have they been available for this season again?

He knows we know he’s a mackem. We know he knows we know he’s a mackem too

The actual article is abysmal btw. Cites Farage in front of US lawmakers but makes no mention of his being eviscerated at the same time. Mentions Graham Linehan without the context of his mental crusade and how its alienated the people who used to be closest to him. Or how the moderators on X no longer moderate, rather they send reports they receive to the police who are duty bound to investigate them. It also fails to mention Lucy Connolly sentence was within the guidelines. But best of all takes most of its critical view of free speech in the UK based on what commentators in the US are saying about us. He’s always been a Tory stooge but presumably the odious cunt is now pinning his hopes on Reform.

Nice to hear he takes after his mam
