    Sarah Everard

    Some of you seem to know a lot about how Tinder works 😂 If its completely random what are the odds of the profile of a 'BLM leftie supporter' showing up for over 50 police officers immediately after her arrest? No idea how the algorithm works, is that likely? If this is just a complete...

    Newcastle United Saudi Takeover

    Its amazing the blindspots people have when it comes to thinks like that. Mate of mine is the biggest leftie going on any cause of protest there is he's there for it. But he's already celebrating money from the Saudi state being used to fund Newcastles rise!

    Sarah Everard

    The details are important here and some of them aren't known. You're talking about someone whose picture at the protest went viral so if, as the article implies, she got 50 likes from police and security guards shortly after her arrest that seems a bit suspect, especially if her claim that they...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    We've been down this road but I don't get it. I wouldn't say my Dad is stupid (even if he is a lifelong Conservative voter!) but its like he's got a blindspot. I mentioned something Johnson had said in an interview last week to him and he just wouldn't believe it, so I found the interview on...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Exactly. There's absolutely no substance to it and the few actual details he came out with are already being fact checked as false, the 'new' hospitals which include refurbs, replacements & builds halted when Carillion collapsed; the cash to send teachers to the parts of the country that need...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Say what you want about Johnson but he knows how to play to his audience. His speech was streets ahead of Starmers. While there was little substance in it, same could be said of Starmers, he gives people the soundbites they want. As we all know nobody, especially the media, has any interest in...

    The Penalty

    A lot higher than I was expecting it to be in all honesty. Looking at the PGMOL site its stretching the definition of full time to its limit. Apart from the actual games they have two days training every fortnight, at Warwick University of all places.

    The Penalty

    Its pretty clear this isn't consistently applied as despite it apparently being introduced years ago nobody on here, or on the Fulham board for that matter, knew it existing before we heard about Godden. If you're going to have a rule like this then apply it to everyone, you can't have rules...

    The Penalty

    Week in week out we see a pretty poor standard of officiating and absolutely nothing seems to be done about it. Of course people make mistakes but with the amount of money in the game officiating really should be a higher standard than it is currently.

    On Andrew Marr on Sunday Johnson, after Marr had explained how farming works to him, said we didn't need to worry about a pig cull as it hadn't yet happened and to 'wait and see'. Well less than 48 hours later the cull of healthy animals has begun due to labour shortages...

    The Penalty

    This is the thing for me. We all know what happened but we also know how may dodgy decisions we've had given against us with no action taken. The old 'evens itself out' theory isn't going to hold up very well if there's seemingly random disciplinary action taken for some bad decisions and not...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The Times are reporting: I'd say its unbelievable but sadly it is. Underfund the NHS to the point it can't cope then blame the NHS for not being able to cope when there's a global pandemic and the government manages to let it get out of control to a point our numbers are far worse than many...

    24 Hours in Police Custody

    To be honest if they want to kill each other then I won't be losing any sleep over that. The problem is when its happening on a busy street on a Sunday afternoon with kids and families around. There's been incidents in Cov where shots have been fired in public places, you can't have innocent...

    24 Hours in Police Custody

    Couldn't stand the lawyer on last nights. People who were clearly guilty, and up to something besides selling chicken - as one of the detectives said you don't make that much money from chicken, and he's bragging about how they can afford 7 or 8 expensive lawyers to defend them while police cuts...

    M25 blocking

    Good idea. To be clear I'm not saying I agree with them or their methods but they've done the peaceful protests and targeted protests and got nowhere. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/aug/27/extinction-rebellion-targets-city-of-london-in-blood-money-protest...

    M25 blocking

    How much coverage are these protests getting compared to when they turn up at Parliament Square? IMO it completely plays into their hands when people start dragging them out of the road or talking about locking them up. As Pete says you make martyrs that way.

    M25 blocking

    We probably end up at the same discussion there was about taking the knee. There will be lots of people saying protest a different way but not many suggestions of how they can protest in a way that will be effective without disrupting people. Its not like protests against climate change are a...
