    Dates of international games were decided some time ago and Easter falls on the week set aside. Of course, it is easy enough to find out when easter will be in advance and avoid it, but they didn't.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    No. I would call them hardline. Again, they choose the bits they want, only they choose the harshest bits because they want to exert control and this gives them the best opportunity to do so. Messages of compassion and caring don't help suppress dissidents.

    For those on limited means and finishing work (thus removing their source of income), when they use the pension pot to buy an annuity. They can't afford to wait for the pot to recover, neither can they take the risk of having an unsecure return based on market fluctations. So they have to use...

    Suggests that before Onyeka the coaches were concerned about us losing possession and being able to stop their attacks. Which I guess you can understand with a number of the goals we've conceded and the likes of Rudoni, Torp, Eccles, Allen and even Grimes aren't exactly ballwinners. Whereas...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Not everyone is in your position. You have said you have a large pension pot and also have a company so have other income. Some people won't have that. They will need to take the pension now. If it drops and they have to take the lump sum/annuity option then their future pension payouts will be...

    Well, no, because as I said if they don't believe that homosexuality is evil or wrong then they're not truly a follower of the religion and they're just kidding themselves that they are because it's more comfortable for them socially and/or psychologically. If you're a good person and kind...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Once again what you've decided in your head people have said is nothing like the reality. You're hearing what you want to hear. So people haven't been talking about Iran until it recently came back into the news, so therefore they aren't opposed to them. Where you you writing endless criticism...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    In my opinion, yes. If you are going to live your life as set out by a particular faith and the teachings of an omnipotent supreme being as written down by people supposedly chosen by that supreme being, you have to believe all of them or you are not truly a believer. You can't pick and choose...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Not at all. I will question things based on what someone says. You started talking about your faith and beliefs and I asked why you think all the other things that are written into that faith can be ignored. I will ask the same of anyone of any other religion. Sure, it is easier on here as...

    But doesn't that still make it the word of God? It may have been written down by men, but what they wrote was what God told them wasn't it?

    But what about those that will be retiring now and taking their pensions? Some can't afford to hold off talking it until it recovers. But hey, you were alright in the end so who cares, eh?

    But the same could be said of any event. Eventually everything will even itself out. You could argue the Great Depression was fine long term as eventually everything improved.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Christianity purports that the Bible (and Judaism with the old testament) is 'the word of God'. If people don't actually believe it's the word of God, they're not actually Christians. It's closer to humanism in terms of believing in being good to others and being compassionate. Those are your...

    Things can change between one game and another. Since that fixture the squad at Southampton seemed to have 'clicked' and they're no a much more difficult proposition now. We need to respect them, but certainly not fear them. Play at our best and we beat them.

    Match Thread Bristol City FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 7th Mar

    Yesterday's game went perfectly for us. ET and they lost so have to play us a few days later. But let's not get complacent. They may well be more tired than us and we are overall a better team, but if we don't put in a professional performance they could bite us on the arse. I'd be quite happy...
