Anyway, for what it's worth, I'd fancy us to go up via the play-offs if that's where we end up But we really shouldn't have handed up there

Similarly, I don't really understand how it's so hard to comprehend why - after so many occasions where we've done everything you describe in your post and still failed to get the result we wanted / needed -people are frustrated People are naturally going to be take far less from positive performances and dominating the opposition without succeeding when at this stage all that really matters is the result

+1 I really wish we'd try it

Aye - same old, same old Tired of it, to be honest None of the play-off contenders are standouts so hopefully we'll have enough to go up that way

Every cloud

There's been plenty of that kind of thing this week Hopefully, we use it as extra motivation

Iran and Hezbollah now mounting an attack

Le Tiss is gutted he didn't think of it first

I remember he claimed to have a goat in his garden that he was planning to kill and eat 🤦‍♂️

In the interests of factual accuracy, the Gaza Health Ministry has acknowledged they have "incomplete data" on 11, 371 of the reported fatalities

Also, Article 6 and the right to a fair trial can be a barrier to deporting people charged with criminal offences elsewhere if it can be argued that that country's legal system is inadequate

Yes, but the difficulty is that Article 3 of the ECHR prevents deportations of the person is "likely to be subjected to torture, or to inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment" The threshold for the above definition is subjective and caan often be very low, depending on the judge hearing the case It's why there's been a spike of asylum seekers from majority Muslim countries claiming to have converted to Christianity, because Christians in their home countries are persecuted Abdul Azedi, the Clapham acid attacker, claimed to have converted to Christianity in his third asylum claim and was granted asylum on that basis (after having previously been convicted of sexual assault), only to have a Muslim burial after he was found dead Similarly, Enzo Almeni claimed to have converted to Christianity on his third application for asylum before blowing himself up while attempting to carry out a terrorist attack on Rememberance Sunday We also experience isssues deporting criminals convicted of sexual offences because they would possibly suffer ill-treatment on their return due to their country's attitudes towards sex offenders If you're interested, there's quite a good article on the impact of the ECHR on the ability of countries to deport non-nationals here: https://ukhumanrightsblog.com/incorporated-rights/articles-index/article-3-of-the-echr/#:~:text=3 imposes an obligation not,cannot be taken into account.
