    I was talking about football in general. There does seem to have been more ACL injuries in recent years than the past. Of course it might also be that thing of noticing it more because it's in your mind to begin with. Also in the past such injuries would have almost certainly been a career ender.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Because not all uni students vote Labour. It's about 65% of them. Read back through my original post - it's all there.

    I think it might be the boots - they've become far more prevalent since the advent of blades etc. Also the game is played at a more intense pace now so more strain on them. But training is probably a part of it. With all the nutrionists, conditioning they're playing at peak performance but...

    But the argument on not being able to afford those players is because the richer clubs hoard them. If they weren't allowed to have so many contracted players the 'lesser' clubs could afford them, because then their other option is to not be a footballer.

    Maddison to Ireland?

    Tom Cleverly was quite regularly playing for England at United despite never looking anything special. Got moved on and not seen hide nor hair of him since.

    Its life - but it could have been so diffrent

    Exciting game full of attacking football. Kosovo were probably a bit naive but they had a go and gave us a real test. Got some decent footballers in that team.

    Of course if there's a will there's a way. But that works both ways. Very often legislation is brought in and before long someone has found a loophole. It's why the tax laws are so convulted. We get business people saying "simplify the tax laws" but the reason they're not simplified is because...

    More than happy with it 95% of the time. But if teams learn we do it all the time it invites the high press so you also have to know when to hit the more direct pass buttin when necessary. Keep them guessing. Fadz does do that long diagonal though so it can be mixed up.

    Yeah I had seen that. I assume you're referring to my post about the RB from WBA? In which case I was referring to Adam Taylor NEWS: Introducing The Sky Blues Academy Scholars EDIT: Just realised you were talking about my comment about who the right sided players were. Apologies.

    So why was the second and third highest proportion of student votes for parties that gave students nothing? Whereas the party that offered them the most was fourth? Or is this 'students are short termist who only go for whoever offers them the most now' another sweeping generalisation that's...

    It wasn't sticking up for Tony. You were the one that was going on about the maths, so I did the maths and it didn't match your assertion.

    To Remain in the EU. It's unlikely they all wanted the same thing long term - some would've been happy for it to stay the same, some would've wanted reform, some further integration. But at the time they all agreed they wished to remain part of the Union. Now if Leave had come out from the...

    May's deal is far closer to what was touted by the Leave campaign than no deal. Please tell us exactly what all 'leavers' voted for? Or is it that you can't because there wasn't any actual plan or idea of what 'leave' actually would mean? And three years later there still isn't.
