Great game obviously but the dramatic turn from Lampard before he did the MVE fist bumps to Singers Corner was ABSOLUTE BOX OFFICE

Because they were looking to establish the facts?

The percentage in this thread has got to be way higher, surely?

He’s presumably had many chances to agitate for first team football and has chosen to stay here instead - I doubt anyone would’ve stood in his way

His career has been miles better here than it otherwise would’ve been

Or he was just never fit enough to make an impact beyond making up the numbers at training

It’s development football - clearly getting thrashed 14-0 isn’t a good day at the office, but they’re there to learn how to play the game a certain way, not to grind out results by any means necessary.

He’s like our Runaway Bride at this point

As you say later on in the post, you’re talking about thousands and thousands of people. This is on a totally different scale from the rioters. I tend to think that “We don’t have the space” is a piss-poor excuse for not properly enforcing the law, but let’s not pretend these are equally...

He’s started in five games and been subbed on in seven since Lampard came in. I’m assuming that Lampard will want/get his own players in at CM in the summer, so assuming that Sheaf (who Lampard clearly rates) doesn’t get sold then I think Eccles is very much at risk.

I don’t even think he’s been bad at all, but he’s currently the fifth choice CM so I can see him being moved on.

Seriously, why hasn’t Trump stopped the war yet?

Would be an unbelievably short-sighted decision imo

Clearly. Although I think it would be a mistake to assume that only those who share such “hopes” in vivid detail are the ones who feel that anger.

Elite appointment

I don’t think they’re necessarily bad people but they are routinely presented as fantasies and there is sometimes a strange element of oneupmanship in there too (“I hope they do xyz to him in prison”….”I hope they do xyz AND castrate him afterwards”) Obviously not the most distressing takeaway...

Something just feels right about having Eccles as the pure neutral in the dead centre of that graph.

It’s almost always the same people who rant about “virtue signalling” as well.

No-one thinks it’s normal Why is it “convenient”, as you described it?

I personally think appearing in a nationally televised TV advert as a kid makes committing a serious crime a few years later less convenient all round. But clearly you’re about to enlighten us as to why this isn’t just a weird conspiracy theory.
