    This season's Shirt Sponsor

    I seem to remember Man U fans kicking off about one of their sponsors years ago, even though the deal at the time was the most expensive shirt sponsorship in history.

    They could offer a crop top version of it, cut off above the sponsor.

    George Floyd

    I've often wondered how they'd react if they interviewed a refugee in France and asked hem if they intended to come to England and they replied "no. France is better". I imagine a load of them would be apoplectic this person didn't think Britain was better than France.

    Nationalism

    Had the same with my nan. My mum was working part-time as a bank cashier, I was working full time as a trainee accountant. My sister was at uni and working part time in a shop. My nan was retired and her pension, the pension she got off my grandad's work and her state pension made her the...

    Nationalism

    And the current generation have no idea how much a landline, washing machine etc cost back in the day. Or the cost of a foreign holiday. Or a car. They could've got by without them. Would've just meant having to do it the old fashioned way and it taking ages. Nor do they understand how much...

    Reckon he's got himself a new nickname there. RUN, FORREST, RUN

    This link to video games is nonsense. Not likes kids that used to play Pac-man grew up to move erratically around a dark room chomping pills hemmed in by people in fluorescent clothing!

    Pask would've been a lot more involved last season if it weren't for injuries. He's much further ahead in his development than Drysdale. Drysdale is U23 squad, Pask most definitely first team squad. Certainly have him playing in his natural position over Sheaf playing slightly out of position...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    When we entered lockdown there was virtually no cars on the roads and people were walking down the middle of the road to social distance and the risk of being run over was negligible. This is therefore proof that you can safely walk in the road. If the roaring success of our world-leading track...

    Cheap public housing sold to them at a discount Social security and NHS (which most will have contributed to to some degree but most will have had more back than they paid in) High wages for relatively unskilled work Final salary pensions Subsidised public travel Free university/higher education...

    Nationalism

    Really can't be asked to repeat all the points again so I'll just deal with a couple. No. Trump is actually a self-serving narcissist who plays on using "America" to get people to think he's doing it for the good of the country. His actions are those of a nationalist. He uses the term patriot...

    This season's Shirt Sponsor

    Principal bit is due to the myriad other sponsors shirts have now. Partner is probably just PR bollocks of making it seem less of a monetary decision

    No, it's Boyle Sports.

    Nationalism

    You do realise that the American right version of 'patriotism' is just American nationalism rebranded under a more 'acceptable' term don't you?

    Nationalism

    God where to start with this! Nationalism has been a major cause of wars and unrest since the first days of global travel. People assuming they're the 'chosen people' with a divine right to rule others and try to take them over to instill their 'correct' way of life upon them, creating the...

    Realistic signings

    Only potential downside would be they'd both be very short. But I think I could put up with that as they'd add a lot more. One thing I would say is you'd hope one of them could become the leader. I always think it's important to have a CDM as an organiser. That is where Kelly really shows his...

    Gnabry.

    Had some talented youngsters on their books and constantly blocked their passage to the first team by signing people who weren't up to the job. Defensively esp they sign a lot of distinctly average players (for the level they want to be at) and even star names like Ozil and Sanchez have been...

    Nationalism

    It's just annoying that they focus on bits that have nothing to do with the Union that exists now and which was formed for very different reasons hundreds of years later.
