    Happy League Champions Day

    Nah, the third goal was annulled because Tranmere didn't score it.

    George Floyd

    Ah yes, O'Day - another one for the scroll down button.

    Ring of Steel. Definitely not worth engaging IMO.

    George Floyd

    I decided long ago that debating with Tony just proved that I was the idiot. I already know it's pointless because he won't understand the points being made - and like most people of low ability he has very high self-confidence. It's a no win situation. There's at least one other person on...

    Leaving this conversation at this point. It's become too good for me. Bye

    George Floyd

    Agreed. I'm certainly not a lefty and I detest racism.

    George Floyd

    He was certainly a twat but that doesn't excuse what happened in any way or form. That was utterly wrong and I condemn it; just as I condemn the ANTIFA wankers and their violence.

    George Floyd

    I think the word here is tautology.

    George Floyd

    Exactly. Stats don't give you causality and are often used disingenuously by people wanting to mislead (such as the link Tony provided - which measures against population not arrests in a deliberate attempt to tell a false story). For example, we know that marriage is a terrible institution...

    George Floyd

    Tony, black people are far more likely to be arrested: Arrests With these stats, the death rate in custody being 8% is actually fewer than you'd expect. So the question is not 'Who died in police custody' but rather 'why are black people more likely to be arrested?' Reg, there's not enough...

    George Floyd

    It doesn't tell you much does it? It's few enough for none of them to have anything to do with bad cops. I found this, which doesn't provide all the answers but shows that the UK has one of the lowest rates in the world - if not the best...

    George Floyd

    Genuine question - are there still police officers like that in the UK? When is the last incident of UK police brutality? Not condoning it in the least but I thought that this was more of a 20th century issue.

    George Floyd

    There appear to have been a lot of occasional knobheads present. Looking at some of the videos there is a constant stream of missiles being thrown at the police on horseback and at one stage a bike is wheeled at them. Indeed, I wonder if anyone present isn't a full-time knobhead.

    Transfer rumours (isn't it nice to talk about football!)

    I think we need someone who is really really really really fast - faster than any player has ever been before; can dribble past anyone; two-footed; can shoot and score from anywhere on the pitch and also tackles so nobody can ever beat him. Ideally he'd also be brilliant at headers and can...

    Transfer rumours (isn't it nice to talk about football!)

    The thing I find frustrating with Mason is his distribution - he loses the ball too often with stray passes. Sort that out and he could be good enough.

    Unbelievable!!!

    I reckon Tranmere could catch them.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Yep, I can believe that. But 90% death rate amongst over 65s is complete arse.

    Bollocks. Not even close.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    OK lads, I've worked out a way that will be OK for the current dissenters. I've calculated the final table but I'm still working on the rules which result in this. Do you think it'll be fine to fudge a few of them?

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Instead of weighted points per game, how about points per weighted game? Every player is weighted like a handicap horse race according to their abilities. Under this scheme, Lee Burge actually has weigh removed and consequently is able to float around the goal.
