Always knew politics was a load of deuce.

Yet another case of say you're doing something, seeing it's unpopular so row back on it. There is fuck all leadership. While I'm not saying any decision shouldn't be questioned and set in stone at least have the balls to stick by a decision that's right even if it's unpopular. They don't give...

US has also placed sanctions on people from the ICC. See themselves above everyone else and unaccountable to anyone.

If everyone fit: Marosi Hyam Osti Rose Dabo Kelly Hamer Giles Allen O'Hare Godden Personally I'd have Mason ahead of Giles as it stands, Godden/Walker will be an interesting battle (and may play together at times), Shipley will be pushing Allen and I reckon Jones will be pushing O'Hare. If...

Recently the squad numbers thing hasn't been moving players around from year to year based on who's in and who's out of favour. It tends to be you get that number and keep it until you leave. Changes tend to be when a number has been vacated another player wants or if a young player has risen up...

But it can find you with the algorithms that make the suggestions to related content. Of course it doesn't force you to watch or clink links but iftdoes to a certain extent 'find you' and therefore entrench a view by finding others that think the same. It could be argued that that kind of thing...

Wasn't that essentially what the last Tory leadership contest was?

Yep, difference between now and then is speed and scope. Type a few sentences and it can be seen around the world in seconds.

I wonder if this is their final transfer or if they still haven't found what they're looking for?

I really, really wish Attenborough would make a series on humans, but treating it like any other nature documentary. Make people realise we're not that exceptional and most of our behaviours are actually almost identical to those of the natural world. "Here, in the wilds of Coventry city...

He may be capable enough there, but he may well excel somewhere else. But we never find out because he's competent somewhere else so we keep him there. Dion was a good centre back when he played there. Would've been a travesty had he played his entire career there though and the waste of a very...

I guess the encouraging thing I've seen recently is more people saying they're spending less time on it or deleting it altogether, so it could end up becoming less influential. However, I can't say if that's true across the generations as my information will invariably be from a small group who...

I agree. His versatility could be his undoing as it might get him in the team but not showcasing his real abilities. Like Osbourne. Played quite a lot of games for us but almost all of them out of position at RB which didn't suit him very well. I always felt he deserved the chance to be the ball...

It does go beyond that but Trump is also a very good example of the effect of social media and also the way it's increasing being used. He uses it extensively and primarily to create division and animosity and with the kind of influence and scope he has it leads others to use it in a similar...

Would definitely use this as a final friendly to get the first team up to speed, with the caveat of leaving out anyone with even a slight knock just in case, which could well include Marosi and Kelly. Marosi* Hyam Fadz Drysdale Pask Kelly* Hamer Mason O'Hare Allen Godden Wilson*...

Wasn't N'Gandu playing U18's when he was 14 or something?

The responses of a few who are probably massively anti-Trump are definitely increasing the chance of his re-election. Rioting, looting and damaging property is just playing into his hands at it supports his 'law and order' message. Trump calling out the lawlessness of these people while...

Thing is those it's people of around our age whose kids are now the ones in the system. There is also a thing that things like smart systems are also having an effect because talking to a machine has eroded manners. You don't need to say please and thank you to Alexa, you just demand and it...

I especially agree with the last sentence. Decent kids suffer an don't achieve as much as they could because the time is spent disproportionately dealing with those that are disruptive. It's always been a problem, esp with Tories, that their experience of education is often very different to...

Somewhat ironic that we actually need a RB/RWB right now too.
