    It's a thought but even with two ACM's Godden has looked isolated from the midfield a lot. That's going to be even worse if that becomes one link man, esp in a game I'm expecting us to be defending a lot. If we do it'll also have to involve a change in style and see us miss out the DCM's in the...

    Man beheaded in Paris

    It does put them in a Catch-22 though doesn't it. The rules state there should be no depictions of the Prophet so if they say 'this is fine' it kind of says 'well if that bit doesn't matter, isn't the rest of it all nonsense as well?" They can't really do that. If they did there's a real chance...

    Man beheaded in Paris

    When you consider the relative ages of Islam to Christianity at the same age Christianity was doing the same fucked up shit to people for questioning church teachings or not believing (or even those of the same faith but a slightly different branch). And there's still a lot of nutters who take...

    Man beheaded in Paris

    So I assume therefore the Christian church would therefore be condoning the killing or imprisonment of Hindu's as it's number one edict is having no other god than the one true God? Or anyone that has a painting/statue as there should be "no graven images"? Or me because I'm a...

    Petition to Parliament re return of supporters

    Yes. But do you honestly believe that with cases doubling every ten days and increasing plus some hospitals now saying they've got as many patients in as during the worst part of the first wave getting fans back into sports grounds and theatres is the best thing to do?

    Exactly. Advisors. Not experts. People who are there for political reasons, not the science.

    Is a lot of people everyone, like you stated? No, it isn't. And is sending confirmed cases into closed environments of very vulnerable people shielding them? No, it isn't.

    I wouldn't call it 'popular', as in people actively want to do it. It's more a begrudging acceptance that it's what's needed. Like me having fruit and veg everyday doesn't mean I like or enjoy it - I'd love to be able to eat junk all the time - but I accept it's far better for me if I do...

    No. He argued for herd immunity against the scientific experts. Experts would've locked down sooner and probably harder and if they had it wouldn't have got as bad as it did and we'd have been able to open up more quickly. With no guarantee of immunity to reinfection, no vaccine forthcoming and...

    Petition to Parliament re return of supporters

    The way infections are going to still be calling for this is nonsensical, no matter how much we'd all like to be back. If anything we should be looking at another temporary lockdown (or arguably have already begun it in hindsight)

    For a person that harps on about WWII, Blitz spirit etc Johnson seems totally unaware of things like rationing. Does he think people were calling for that, or that is was popular? Of course it wasn't, but it was necessary. And people grudgingly accepted it because they knew it had to happen for...

    The reason the economy to them is based around the wealthy is because of the metric used to assess 'success'. As long as the overall mean average growth improves then the economy has improved and getting a handful of billionnaires significant increases in wealth is far easier to achieve than...

    We previously shielded everyone and that didn't work. That was your original quote. Maybe I'm mad but when we talk about everyone I assume that to include the people in care homes. Besides which we had the lockdown and the number of cases, deaths etc fell. We've opened stuff up and their...

    As is the standard of us and Arsenal. It's all relative. People we're raving over here wouldn't even get a mention at other clubs like that.

    Realistic signings

    Is it that they're too good for this level or that this is currently their level and the league is actually inferior to what it should be because so many young players are hoarded in big clubs development set-ups? One day they might be too good for this level, but right now this may well be...

    OK, given the huge number of academy lads and U23's teams like Arsenal take on even getting into a squad of that nature is an achievement but lets be honest, that competition is the equivalent of the EFL cup or checkatrade for us. Nice to do well but frankly not high on the list of priorities...

    Statistically you're more likely to be killed by an asteroid, because although the chances of it happening are very low the death count if it does will be billions. Also you can't catch cancer from being close to other people. There's plenty of things we could do to reduce cancer cases in terms...
