    Are we getting a name for ourselves off the pitch?

    I accept your point - part of the enjoyment for me is that slight rowdiness (though it feels increasingly like it's crossing the line of acceptableness with many behaviour), but I have a slight issue with the priority. The priority should be making it inclusive of everyone, allowing those that...

    Certainly, but there's no reason you couldn't have both in the team, especially if we play Kane as a loan striker with three midfielders supporting. With Sterling all the attacking midfielders would play together at club level. So, not including the back four I'd go first choice: Rice...

    Away points system confirmed for next season

    I agree. I was always fine with them bringing in a system which benefitted those that go to more games, but that should include all fixtures. As you say, if anything it should slightly favour those going to many home games and season ticket holders because that provides the club with revenue.

    Solar panels

    I don't just mean the carbon generated in extracting and processing the lithium, I mean the overall ecological and environmental effects from the process.

    Solar panels

    I assume the batteries are made from lithium, so the environmental costs of mining that also need to considered.

    Refing

    I think he may have slightly altered his stride either because he expected or wanted to initiate contact, depending on your point of view, which caused him to clip his own heel.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    1. £250 < £600 2. A loan is giving people £0. Or perhaps we should all be eternally grateful to him because at least he's not charging Wonga levels of interest on it, which I'm sure would be many of his colleagues preference.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    While you do make a decent point, it could also be rather playing into Russia's narrative. If Ukraine attack something in Russia Putin can use that to fit into their Ukranian aggression argument, even though in the grand scheme of things you could argue it's entirely justified. At this stage I...

    This Summer

    Gus is probably the one I'd let go. Yes, he's good but O'Hare gets us up the pitch and has a work ethic. Strikers are expensive and he has a lot of good attributes that would be hard to find an adequate replacement for. The other potential one that might get interest is Sheaf, and that would be...

    Tony Mowbray

    Because it's not representative of the actual amount of time the ball is in play. Games would end up lasting the best part of three hours. So if a ball is in play for approx. 30mins out of 45 under current rules, having 45 mins with a stopped clock would increase their workload by a third...

    Are we getting a name for ourselves off the pitch?

    Clearly not, no. Just because you've gone to a football match doesn't mean common decency and laws can be forgotten about for a bit. Should we give people attending other events a free pass to be dickheads for a bit afterwards. If you've gone to see the ballet can I kick someone in the...

    Indeed. But you don't seem to be aware that it means the exact same contradiction applies to you in reverse. If you're going to criticise SISU for cutting costs and falling to invest as they care more about their investor's returns which can only ultimately lead to hampering our ability to...

    For balance this doesn't look great either. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-60940971

    While it's quite a nice point but it works both ways. it doesn't make you look that great if you're making that comparison considering you think SISU only look out for themselves to the detriment of the club but laud the Tories for looking after themselves to the detriment of the wider...
