I'm not. It's great news. I'm just pointing out the reality is it's keeping him hear for one year longer than he was already here for.

I think the question being asked is that even though they will be able to fight the infection and it wouldn't last as long in their system, is there still a window that they could transmit it to others before their body fought it off, or just spread it via touching things because it's present on...

Oh I know he believes the world revolves around him. If something is good for him it's good for the world. If it's bad for him then it's bad for the world.

Whereas we've got so much choice of talent...

As I say if the govt says they're increasing spending by £100bn in a new bill, yet £80bn of that funding increase was already in a previous bill that is being superceded by the new one is the increase in spending £100bn or £20bn? What they're announcing is technically correct - the new bill puts...

More Stuart Dickyhart then?

I was talking about his real reasoning, not how he'll sell it to his base.

If it wasn't 'spin' it would state specifically that this deal will keep him at the club for one additional year over his existing deal. It doesn't. This is exactly what spin is - reporting or announcing things in the most positive means. When the govt says we're increasing spending by, say...

I'm not saying we're alone in doing it. It's a standard means of reporting and you can see why they do it that way - because it sounds better. Same with transfer fees when they say a player has been sold for £x but due to installements the club at that moment has only recieved a fraction of the...

But quite a few students were arguing why are we paying all this money for stuff we can do from home and not have to pay all these extra expenses living on campus? Yet they were told they had to return, did, and then almost immediately were told they weren't allowed out. Of course there are...

That is quite frightening. Could very easily be taken as an order to prepare. If that was used by a military commander the message would be clear - stop for now but be ready in case we need you. I've never thought if he lost he'd just accept the decision and it'd be a struggle to get him to...

Created a bit of a ping-pong ding-dong. Could've been worse as they could've had a sing-song and we know under coronavirus that a no-no and if you do that you may as well have just grabbed a mallet and killed your granny.

It is spin. 'Three year contract' is factually correct. But no mention that it will only keep him here for one extra year over his current deal. Being economical with the facts and only mentioning the ones that look good.

Why are we trying to find ways to shoehorn in players out of position when we have standbys who naturally play in that position available? Why would we play Giles as a winger on the left but not have a winger on the right? Totally lopsides the team if you have LB/LW but a RWB

I agree. He does that well. Just like he makes it impossible to stick anything to him because he's constantly doing something else stupid and outrageous and the the previous talking point gets forgotten. Whereas others with small individual transgressions constantly get them brought up again and...

Fair enough, just wanted to point out it had a lot of spin behind the headline. It's not like he was about to be able to walk away for compensation.

Difficult game and would accept a draw. Win would be phenomenal. Marosi Osti Fadz Hyam Dabo Hamer Sheaf Giles Shipley O'Hare Godden Billson, McCallum, Rose, Pask, Allen, Baka, Walker Assuming Kelly isn't fit yet. Did um and ah about having McCallum in ahead of Giles as we're...

It's slightly disingenuous as he already had a contract to 2022. he's now got one to 2023. So it's in fact an extra year, not three. No mention of an option either.

So who links up with the striker? Jones likes to get the ball and run with it. O'Hare is a similar sort of player too. If we're playing two ACM's you need at least one acting more like the second striker assisting the main forward and acting as a foil to O'Hare, creating space for him. Jones...

But we probably did the same with Kastaneer the year before. We didn't bring him in with the intention of not having him in the squad - he was going to be the superstar. You can bring someone in intending for a particular outcome but for whatever reason it doesn't work out that way. Hilssner's...
