    Full-speed helmet to the chest would be enough to stop the heart. Wonder if his armour wasn't on correctly??

    I wouldn't argue with one of them - 13 tonnes of pure torque!

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    A: There is no way of predicting whether mutations would lead to milder or more severe infection - it's random mutation followed by selective pressure. In many cases a virus WILL mutate to produce a milder infection, because that is the best way of it passing from one host to the next - Omicron...

    Paris

    I understand from people in the know (via my work) that irrespective of the proportion on the watchlist, the number of foiled "immediate threat" plots in the past few years has been about 50:50 right wing to Islamic fundamentalists. "other" will definitely include animal rights and random...

    I sense quite a few of these are wishful thinking!!

    Things that annoy you

    I thought the Beeb had a specialist pronunciation unit (or did that get cut to pay for the diversity badwagon). If it still exists maybe they should spend some time teaching commentators and pundits how to pronounce Kevin de Bruyne's name by listening to one of their own favoured Belgian...

    It's not fancy or jargon - it's incorrect!!

    Things that annoy you

    Talking of adverts - that one for "On the beach" with the soundtrack "The most wonderful time of the year" (which they take to mean summer holiday time!). They play it all year round and i'm struggling to settle on whether i find it more irritating in the summer or around Christmas. It also has...

    I'm guessing from the typeface that is from the Daily Mail? But FFS who thinks like that about anyone (maybe unless it is an ex-partner or someone who has murdered your entire family)?

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    Good synopsis TGP. But i would put Maradona into that category too. And probably everyone who has ever played, as it is so difficult to compare across eras, playing styles and law changes. I would definitely consider Pele and George Best as being all-time greats. I haven't taken a great deal of...

    I thought it was pretty exciting in the first half when Di Maria was bossing the game (even though i hate the way he dived for his pen). Definite mistake taking him off so soon.

    Things that annoy you

    Micah Richards claiming that the WC Final was the best game of football he has "ever seen". Bullshit - it was topsy-turvy and there were some good goals, but not as good as the BBC are making out (in my opinion).

    Things that annoy you

    The thing i can't stand about the Netflix documentary is how much air-time and column-inches are given over to analysing it. I couldn't give a shit about them, and i would rather not be bombarded with the unavoidable coverage. If people want to watch it, watch it. But leave me out of it...

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    I've long thought that 'keepers are over-protected. You can't even jump alongside them without them getting a free kick. But this was just plain nonsense.

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    It's not the VAR people - it was the ref who reviewed it and thought it was a pen. He is a clown!
