Why would you make someone director of football after having six months as a temporary manager? Why not just look for a director of football?

I certainly don't expect them to get involved in this. It would have to escalate to such an extent that chances are it would be pretty much nuclear war before they even considered it. I meant more about advancing their own immediate interests and how they can gain more power and essentially...

People kept on saying Hitler wouldn't go further but he did. And if he'd conquered Britain and Russia he'd have kept going, confident that he'd managed to defet these two foes. Once they start winning and feeling invincible their ambitions get bigger and bigger. No-one at all in his circle will...

So if someone invaded here I assume you'd be absolutely fine with the rest of the world saying "Not my problem. Britain isn't worth a single ounce of blood" and you'd be quite happy to have this enemy shelling the fuck out of your house and shooting at you and your family? Though knowing you...

That is indeed the big problem. But either way he just carries on pushing, using the nuclear weapons as a means of stopping others getting involved. If that works for non-NATO countries there will come a point where he will be so damn sure of himself he would invade one, believing he cannot be...

You say no to military intervention and Ukraine gets taken over. So Putin goes after places like Moldova. He's already threatened Finland and Sweden. So then this happens all over again and once again you say no to military action and every time it emboldens Putin to go further and further. This...

Never understood why they thought that a manager brought in on a temporary contract for 6 months or whatever should have a say in the next manager.

That's not a Polish pirate. Way too many vowels.

So basically he has a real problem with telling the truth. Again, what a great trait for a Prime Minister to have...

I specifically said it was advice. It was pointing out he had been told not to by top health experts, firstly for health reasons and secondly to set an example. He didn't give a shit about either. Macron was stupid to do so as well. Doesn't make it acceptable for Johnson to do it. Sounds like...

Well, you failed with that post ;)

Did you miss all those pictures of him inside, maskless and standing closer than two metres to those he was having meetings with? We saw what he thought of those rules with the parties so I wouldn't be at all surprised he was doing similar throughout the pandemic. I doubt he even changed his...

Starmer had covid (twice) but followed the rules. He's isolated more often than a hermit to follow those rules. Boris on the otherhand flouted them constantly and dismissed them as unimportant, shaking covid patients hands etc. despite being told in the strongest possible terms not to. Fair...

I think you missed the fact there was an OR in the definition. A subtle difference OR shade

The fact you've spent so much time in that post saying how you're not a fan of johnson yet spent so much time defending him for the last few years shows that you both like to come on here to wind people up and you lack objectivity. "He's my side so I'll defend him" You talk about his personal...

You think they'll be removed from joint hosts in 2026?

I think a distinction needs to be made between words and actions. Boris is very good at telling people he's going to do stuff, then not doing it. They deliberately held back when the sanctions are going to be introduced, almost certainly to allow the individuals involved to get their money and...

I was wondering if planes etc could be reliveried to be Ukranian and sent to help. You know Putin would play this as Western military involvement and an act of war. Necessary to allow Ukrainians the best chance though.

I guess, given the size of the Russian empire and he definitely sees himself in Czarist terms, but I think his playbook is more Stalinist. So it's a sort of hybrid of the two.

LCB Agree CB Also agree but no idea who. Would have said Osti but could be a bit hit and miss. Think we may keep Fadz but it will be a season too long for him at this level. LWB Agree. We seem to keep on getting in loanees for this though. CM I'm hoping Eccles can fill that spot. AM Definitely...
