    Yeah lets just perpetually go for the tried-and-trusted deregulation allowing the traders to get greedy, leading to high but unsustainable growth built on a foundation of sand. Inevitably that situation will eventually cause a recession, which they bring in austerity to deal with, slashing...

    I think with undrafted players etc Belichick knows he will always have control as those players will be grateful for the opportunity and not rock the boat, or at least certainly not for a while. When he took on Brown he got rid very quickly because he could see it was going to be an issue with...

    Starmer is being far too quiet on the situation and how it's being milked for personal profit by the Tories. But how are Labour supposed to offer alternatives when the govt are trying to deny even their backbenchers a say in parliament with a massive majority? And that's after they purged...

    Why did it have the accreditation? Because it was given it by those in govt. How else would a new start up with zero experience have the accreditation? Also it SAID it could supply 500k - no proof it could actually do it because, as I say, it had no previous experience. Perhaps the 40k was...

    Way too early to be talking about the next election - loads can happen in that time. Most of the shit they've done this far will be long forgotten by then.

    It still amazes me how the most capitalist nation on earth runs it's sports on such socialist terms. If you're shit no need to worry about repercussions as you won't be demoted or anything as long as you accept the rules. In fact have the first pick of the best young players. I'm amazed they...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    TBH when he emerged on the balcony he looked quite pale so he's probably gone in for a fake tan to appear healthy and overdone it even more than normal.

    Ex Player Watch

    I find it astounding how many pro's that have been through years of academy/training etc are still so reluctant or even unable to shoot with either foot. I spent ages just taking shots with my right foot in the garden so I was comfortable with it and I never had delusions of being a footballer...

    New ricoh tenant

    That's how credit works. Why would you offer it if it wasn't a nice little earner? Plus our owners loans every year to cover our cash shortfall are being charged with a fair amount of interest on, then don't call them in in what at face value seems like a nice thing to do but the compound...

    Soccer

    But that's Rugby Football. It distinguishes itself in its name but acknowledges it's derived from the game of football. American's don't call their game 'American Football', they just call it 'football'. If they called it Gridiron Football or similar then no problem.

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

    So something else we've been saying would happen from the start but dismissed as Project Fear has happened... But hey, we don't want to be told what to do by other nations. If they had any balls whatsover they say if they want the trade they put in the standards we have. if not we can have...

    I was including them in my thoughts. Far more likely staff will be off sick this time of year and even with a little thing they'll not want to take any chances.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    And that's the problem. People don't always vote sensibly. It's also assuming all those that poll for Biden actually go out and vote when it matters. Apathy is far more dangerous to Biden. You can sy who you intend to vote for as much as you like but if you don't actually then do it it means...

    I agree, but their entire ethos is accept no responsibility for anything that goes wrong. Quick to accept the praise and plaudits (and financial rewards that go with them), total reluctance to accept any criticism or blame.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Also see that Trump is saying he wants all Americans to have access to the treatment he had. Which is why him and his party have spent god knows how long trying to remove the ACA, allowing insurers to put in caveats so they can avoid paying out, allowing employers to not provide health...

    Predominantly, but when it first started it was younger (work-aged) people getting it due to travel. It was once it inevitably got into other areas of society that it became a big problem. Now we've got people bored of restrictions and poor/confusing advice just not giving a shit anymore...

    Sorry. Wasn't aimed at you specifically. It was more at people in general that say that.
