Getting more money is of course great but it goes very quickly. Championship wages also go up at a huge rate as well.

I agree entirely on the class thing. Social mobility is extremely difficult and those in the upper classes will strongly resist anyone trying to attain it as on the whole many of them see it as their birthright. But there are almost no black people in those classes and so they will be resisted...

Unless Germany suddenly finds some oil reserves......

Interesting if true, but it does makes it a grey area. If the socioeconomic factor is more important BUT black people are very heavily held back from improving this situation with jobs etc compared to even poor white folks, racism does also play a part in it.

I didn't know the fellow that invented Chinese Whispers kept geese.

Sort of a merge with the BLM/George Floyd and this there is the evidence that BAME groups are more susceptible to the virus being lethal and I've seen quite a few saying this is further proof of racism. Is that actually accurate? Do we know it's due to racism rather than just genetic...

RIP. Condolences to his friends and family. Far too young.

Stiull gone backwards slightly but found our feet and walking in the right direction.

Sounds more like an RoI thing - they prefer pulling out to protection.

Not exactly the point I was trying to make. I'd be quite happy for English football to step back from the insanity of the money involved and see wages and transfer fees fall to something remotely like sanity, even if it did result in it having to downsize a bit. For some of those top clubs the...

Three of the worst responses (thus far) have been UK, US and Sweden. Of those two are steadfastly sticking to the "we've had a great response and done really well". One has said "we got it wrong". Guess which is which and what the common denominators are between them,......

Well that's a bit debateable. Many of the Russian oligarchs are there because of their support and backing of people like Putin, who do use those methods. Also a lot of links to organised crime. So they are indirectly involved as they allow others to use them that they toady up to for personal gain.

I agree. Also when you listen to oldies stories there favourite times are under JH, again when we were lower league. Of course it'd be nice to be winning at the very top end but give me season's like this over perennial struggles and losing more matches than we win every day of the week.

PL will approve. If they don't they'll put off other potential foreign investors (pretty much all of whom have a dodgy past somewhere) so the gravy train rumbles to a halt, massive wages and transfers become less affordable, better players go to other countries, TV/sponsorship goes down, wages...

Agree entirely. If you showed Trump those protests and the response of the authorities but told him it was somewhere in Africa he'd call it outrageous and say it needs democracy and regime change.

Fear is "I Can't Breathe" becomes the new "Hands Up, Don't Shoot". A short period of anger then everything dies down again. But with Trump in the WH, smartphones we could see flare ups happening far more regularly until it does eventually just break out into civil war. Quite a few states, esp...

Do you need the corset edition rather than sports bra?

But when he did feel unwell he should have gone home - not gone to the chamber.

At a McDonalds? Are you sure?

They still would be if it weren't for cameraphones.
