He was a fantastic player but I never liked the man - he only had eyes for his "United" and I know he spent his entire life there but as i mentioned when Jack died, the latter though also a one club man knew where his heart really was.

Edouard should been booked much earlies for taking out Bruno and has spent the entire half whinging at the ref.

By a man who's kept by his rich wife, invented his CV and has never had a job outside of being a tory MP.

The thing that got me was always the "on the dole with a plasma tv" trope. Of course it inferred anyone on the dole had never worked so the idea of someone doing okay, having a nice telly and then losing their job wasn't considered. Even then as being on the dole is obviously a life sentence and not the pause it should be given the excellent help of the job centres in helping find new jobs, the TV must be sold immediately lest ye be judged as dole scum.

They're a microcosm for how little englanders see England compared to the rest of the world

They'll never allow any return - the right of return of those kicked out of their homes post-1947 is a non-negotiable no which has affected every attempt at peace. It's also the position as far as I'm aware that the creation of Jordan, Syria and Lebanon in their current form is meant as a Palestinian "homeland" by those who oppose peace in Israel.

Or the shoeshine bloke in Police Squad...

Fair enough up to a point but it suggests that anyone on here does know anything about football/films/music/arse wiping.

Any suggestion of de-escalation, ceasefire, diplomacy and peacekeeping in any conflict has now been classified as insane communist lunacy which must be crushed. Just because someone suggested some mild left of centre policies for 5 minutes.

I can't help comparing Braverman and the tories stance on the boats to Netanyahu and the right wing Israel's (and for that matter Hamas"s as well) attitude to the conflict. If any of them could snap their fingers and solve the issues in an instant none of them would do it as their reason for being and route to power would not exist.

How big a cunt would you be to think the tories are still too soppy and vote Reform?

Gloom you keep using "carved out the land" as if it was empty and ready to be allocated - Palestinians/Muslims had lived their for centuries and then were politely expected to move to Egypt, Jordan or Lebanon leaving their homes and lives behind. Those who stayed lost those anyway. To me making a homeland for Jews (based on divine right-ism) was no different to New South Wales being gifted to the Aborigines or the mid-west US states being gifted to native Americans - all very noble but too late and completely erasing "nartural" occupation and immigration.

Semantics are strange in this area. The old terrorist/freedom fighter thing and also full on supporters of Israel complaining about it being described as an apartheid state only to be shown quotes from Mandela and Tutu calling it that. There's also a tweet from last year from Von der Leyen calling Russian cutting off of power and water war crimes while of course backing Israel doing it. If the defence of Israel's actions continue so full on, Putin will be pissing himself.

How ironic that Scousered Your Post can also stand for South Yorkshire Police.

First day back in the office after having Covid last week (though I was able to WFH) and I get a text offering me a vaccine booster. Excellent timing Mr NHS...

That was my thought - a bit lucky but the first was harsh anyway which you'd like to think he took into account rather than just being incompetent or cowardly.

I watched Anna - Luc Besson spy thing about a sort of female John Wick - last night and then thought I'd heard of a similar film with Charlize Theron which it turns out is called Atomic Blonde so I watched that tonight. Both excellent but a bit similar.

Very disappointing not to win from that position.

I'm nee casanova but you need a biology lesson.

Just watched Cocaine Bear - proper brainless fun.

Cunts have won.

I think Shepherd's plans had 8k at the Gallowgate so only 5k in the east stand, even by means of something spectacular, doesn't seem worth it to me - if those are the figures of course.

Ref was biased so I see a simple keep them in their place bribe narrative.

Stockton is historically in Durham and Boro in Yorkshire as the Tees was the border so Mackem logic dictates Stockton is MLF territory.

Record victory on Wearside apparently.
