  1. I don't like Cricket. The British gave us the wrong sport.
  2. The 1st generation aren't a problem Trent. It's the 2nd and 3rd that carry a massive chip on their shoulders.
  3. 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.
  4. 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?
  5. If there's grass on the wicket, let's play cricket - Geoffrey Boycott
  6. 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).
  7. I didn't think the ape film was anywhere near as good as the first one.
  8. 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?
  9. 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.
  10. So is it in fact Hamas to blame for civilian deaths in Palestine?
  11. I think some are being a bit harsh on the Isco post. No harm in dreaming now and then.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 3 times is low. Lost count of racism incidents when I was a kid but I think that was probably more down to where I lived.
  16. I can't believe this. I'm shocked. A white taxi driver!!!
  17. My biggest fear as a kid was stray dogs.They were everywhere and I got chased many times. At least we don't have stray dogs anymore.
  18. Yes he is. He's excellent. A year or two ago I rated Lloris as the best in the world, and I still think he's up there (although a couple of others have surpassed him) Really? Maybe I just haven't watched him enough or he has had poor games in the times I've seen him.
  19. What is the world to do when Israel is backed by the US?
  20. Is Lloris even that good? Quick off his line and a good shot stopper but I don't think he's anything special. I'm surprised non of the bigger clubs like Arsenal have signed Begovich.
  21. Great ending of the last series. Loved that fight scene with Eli and the Fed.
