I'm pretty sure Mickey Arison isn't interested.

Blandy made a very focused post about the fans being hacked off with it all and got straight to the point....bravo

we can all pontificate about who's fault it is, my punt is its collective, but the manager does take the responsibility.

I will be interested to know though, IF we have a bad start and he is relieved of his post which is likely.....how visionary will that be?.....did we not have 2 years prior to make our minds up?

or are we waiting to see if his actions/new recruits/returns to fitness are to pay off?.....is it exclusively hanging on results and nothing else.

when is the right time to say stick at it or times up?

I don't think it matters. If you can survive 8-0 defeats, humiliation to league 1 clubs over 2 legs and the worst home record in our history. You can survive anything.

Lerner will never sack Lambert.

Cheers guys. Will check them out.

Edit: forgot to add Rome to the earlier list. Quality.

The West Wing is still up there with the greatest programmes ever if you've not seen it

I haven't seen it. Another added to the list. Nice one.

I'd say on the whole the majority of fans know that considering the circumstances getting rid of Lambert wouldn't be the answer.

We really do need to stop losing so many games at home though.

I hope his brother is right and he really is that good. I've never seen anything to suggest it.

I would put Sopranoes, The Wire and GoT up there as some of the greatest TV I've ever seen. Broadwalk Empire slightly behind.

There are others that are good like Dexter, Breaking Bad, Tru Blud etc but they are more to just pass the time.

I need to find another program on the same level as the Sopranos etc

Any suggestions?

Breaking Bad is as good as any of them, phenomenal TV.

I don't think Ronaldo is a player who can adapt his game. Once his pace goes, that's it for him. He's got a good few years left though.

I think Ronaldo can do anything he wants.

i get the us and them attitude and i get they feel the need to protect their own, i mean the west has created some of this problem to a degree. ive been and worked in indian communities and also black communities but when ive worked in muslim areas there just seems this horrible negative vibe, like what are you doing in this area and it just feels such horrible places where as say indian communities seem a lot more open and vibrant. just my view of how i feel and see things, but im someone with no experience and socialisation of other faiths and cultures...

Maybe, just maybe part of your feelings as previously expressed contribute to that impression? Maybe as well as, or instead of expecting or wanting Muslim communities to "demonstrate their goodness" to paraphrase you, you could kind of actively take an interest in them

You would get a punch for looking in the direction of certain youngsters. Let alone asking them a question.

As I mentioned preciously and something Rugely has commented on. It's not Islam or a Muslim community that is the problem. It's a drug fuelled youth filled with hatred.

Technically I don't think you are Asian if you don't like cricket

I don't like Cricket. The British gave us the wrong sport.

The 1st generation aren't a problem Trent. It's the 2nd and 3rd that carry a massive chip on their shoulders.

Where I live the youth seem to thrive on being segregated. They love the 'us against the world' mentality and excuse to act like hoodlums. As if they have no other choice. They give Islam a bad name.

From your perspective, do you think Britain is great?

Sorry got distracted by famous quotes. Yes Britain is great but I do think gambling laws have become way too lax. It's everywhere!

Gambling is a disease and destroys lives. Yet advertisements are in your face 247. Government and gambling corporations continue to prospers while people's lives and families detoriate.

New thread?

Im happy to spend time answering any questions you have Rugeley. You have a very distorted view of Islam I must say. Not that I blame you for that view.

As Tony says once you spend time with anyone from another country or religion or race you realise that most of us are the same and most of us are good people. Well apart from Blues fans

I have a question if you don't mind? I was once told that in some countries such as India and Pakistan, young Muslim boys are given a pet goat which they keep until they grow fond of it.Then the goat is slaughtered and they are made to watch to desensitise them.

Is there any truth in this at all? (Btw even if this was true I'm not judging any sort of practise, just curious).

I didn't think the ape film was anywhere near as good as the first one.

I was thinking about Lambert's signings and if we were to sell all of them today would we recoup what was spent?

Makes a change from previous managers doesn't it?

As much as I think Lerner has damaged the club I was just thinking back to defining moments over the years. I think one of them was keeping Gregory and giving him large backing instead of getting an experienced manager in. The right man at that time could have got us in to the Champions League that season.

If only we got Wenger or even Moyes instead of keeping Gregory.

So is it in fact Hamas to blame for civilian deaths in Palestine?

I think some are being a bit harsh on the Isco post. No harm in dreaming now and then.

Well at least Bojan will be able to score a couple on his Premier League debut

It will happen and we all know it.

Nah. If they score you know who it will be.

Maybe multiculturalism is in reality just a name for respect and tolerance? Segregation will always exist within different communities but it can exist in a healthy way.

Nothing wrong with the area or people themselves just because it was 'white'. It's just tough on a kid being the odd one of out almost. A racist comment or slur was never far away whether it was meant to insult me or not.

I prefer multi cultural area's personally. People tend to be a lot more tolerant and understanding of other cultures.

You don't think the demographics of an area is something to consider when moving in to that area? As an Asian kid growing up in a predominantly white area and school, I wish my parents had considered it.
