  1. Right you are. In all, a professional performance against a side who did try to make a game of it second half. Onwards into Portsmouth!
  2. Very tight, i thought. Not that I'm complaining!
  3. Wasn't expecting to hear from him from Santos's pocket 😉
  4. Big point, especially given their chances at 30-45 minutes. Baxter stood up well. Impressed with Oxford; I must admit I thought their position belied their actual quality, but they were a very good side. Definitely a threat til May.
  5. That were a bit good, that.
  6. I had the newer version of the Alfa GT a few years back. When it wasn't pissing oil, having electrical faults, cutting out the power steering, crumpling its rear wishbones over a pothole... for those 2 days a year, it was a lovely drive. I still lust after a mid 90s Alfa Spider. I just know how completely detrimental that decision would be to my bank account!!
  7. Israel had to respond. Of course they did! But where's the line - where do these horrors stop? Is 8 dead Palestinians for every dead Israeli enough of a trade for Netanyahu? If it *isn't* enough, then boy oh boy, he is hurtling towards a genocide.
  8. Interesting split between the words you've chosen. The "deaths" in Gaza, almost as natural, acceptable and normalised as the passing of your nan. Not "murders", oh no. Current estimates are at around 11,000 Palestinian deaths in retaliation for 1,400 Israelis. Let's flip it. How many murdered Palestinians equate to one Israeli death? Is 8 a fair number?
  9. I particularly enjoyed their little chant of "Murderers, murderers" as they trudged back through the granddads and families. To which a little lad shouted gleefully "1-0!!!" Wonderful.
  10. Fucking hell. Unimaginable.
  11. Logic, integrity or respect for parliamentary protocol in a post-Johnson Tory government? Ha! More chance of Nlundulu winning the Golden Boot this season.
  12. Rest well, Comrade.
  13. If fundamentally disagreeing with that witch's claim that homelessness is a choice makes me a "Commie", I'll wave a red flag and sing L'Internationale with pride.
  14. Holding about as much parliamentary power as the pseudo-fascists' new poster girl. Thankfully, on both counts.
  15. There's definitely a strawman under the armour of your profile picture.
  16. She'll make a clever and astute leader over a dozen Tory MPs next year. Good for her!
  17. Laughable.
  18. Reading the rest of Swanny's post, and not wishing to speak for him, it looks like he was referring to Muslims in this country being unable to stop the war in Palestine. Looks like a weak excuse for you to use to cob off about the Rayguns again.
  19. Owlstalk is a treat at the moment. Meltdowns all over. Something, something scha...? 😁
  20. That's a lad who is living the dream... and there's still so much more to come. He's such a pleasure to watch.
  21. Fantastic 3 points, absolute beaut of a winner for GT. Table looking very nice. COYW!
  22. I think it's important to recognise a something from IE and the press release: "we want a culture where we promote from within." "Culture" is a big word that a lot of employers don't get right. What does it say to loyal, capable employees, if they're qualified to take on a role but get snubbed in favour of an external "name"? Not that Craddock eould necessarily kick off if he was unsuccessful; I don't know the guy. But why take the risk? Good luck, Matt.
  23. Take pure geography out of it a second. How "up for it" were Carlisle? We're their closest away day (edit: ok, bar the 2x donkey lashers on Fylde), and we can house 5000 of them. No matter what we think, because we played Bayern away once - they're a rival. It's on our coaching and playing staff - and fanbase, to treat it as such.
  24. There was such a universal clamour for VAR not long back, the "big club" fans, bloggers and pundits wailing that "we've got the technology, why aren't we using it?" I thought then that it would be problematic, purely because of the number of cameras in the stadium, the pace of the modern game, and limitless opportunity for decisions to be dissected in minute detail by the nobs on Arsenal TV, wailing Koreans on Twitter and that dour prick Danny Murphy. Absolutely brilliant. (The schadenfreude that is, not the tech itself 😁)
  25. Well done from Randell that, great spot. Lovely move. Pretty horrible watch overall but that's a cracking 3 points. Fantastic, lads.
