Rds1983

Surprised nobody has posted William McGregor yet. He did some football stuff or something.

Jeremy Bentham. Was born in 1748 and was a leading theorist in Anglo-American philosophy of law, and a political radical whose ideas influenced the development of welfarism. He advocated individual and economic freedoms, the separation of church and state, freedom of expression, equal rights for women, the right to divorce, and (in an unpublished essay) the decriminalising of homosexual acts. He called for the abolition of slavery, capital punishment, and physical punishment, including that of children. He has also become known as an early advocate of animal rights. Hundreds of years ahead of his time and did a lot of good.

I'd say these points actually show that Murphy is talking nonsense and having that experience is crucial to winning a league. I'd argue the reason City have won it so much recently isn't because they have that experience, but more that they have better resources and larger/fuller squads. They're better placed for the tail end of the season as they'll have fresher players who are less burnt out due to better rotation. You only need to look how we used to explode under MON at the end of each season to see how much this can affect teams.

There's only one trophy that matters apparently. Messi won best player too. It's all about marketing/Internet clicks sadly.

A lot of disruption for them which could easily ruin their season and send them back down. Hopefully not though.

Don't worry. There can never be an overabundance of tits.

Cov fans made and displayed (on a road bridge not at the stadium) a banner today showing an exploding helicopter. Disgusting at any time but especially given what's happened with Leicester's owners.

Musiala isn't English. He has 25 caps for Germany, was born in Germany to German and Nigerian parents and only moved to England when he was 7. He played youth football for both us and Germany.

I'm just surprised people still play the lottery.

How do you tell the difference between a chemist and a plumber? Ask them to pronounce "unionised".

I've got the dvd for the 1973 Barbarians game. Unbelievable try scored by these players.

Brilliant player. He was also my father in laws claim to fame. He did a training session at London Welsh (I think) and managed to stop JPR scoring a try by ankle tapping him. Was super happy with himself until the coach told him off for risking injury to JPR.

When it's feeling like a chore to go, try focusing on exercises that you enjoy and want to do, even if it's not the day for them. Just do bench press, or deadlift, or arms or rowing machine or whatever you enjoy. It's better to mix your routine up but still do something rather than do nothing. If you need to spend a bit more time looking at your phone or whatever between sets on that day then so be it. Make it enjoyable until you want to do it properly again.

Raccoons who then eat the stormtroopers.

Who is CVB?

The defence was 'letting them down'partly due to how Schumacher set them up. They were very attack minded. Rough few weeks for them though and hiring Gerrard's assistant doesn't exactly fill me with excitement for them.

It's hard to judge him based off his club football and how Pep plays him. Who knows how an attack minded tactical genius would utilise him. We'd have to look at where else he is playing and how his international manager uses him to figure that out. Actually, hang on, that doesn't work. Forget it.

We were making bad decisions before their take over. Lerner and MON had us hemorrhaging money and signing dross on crazy fees/wages before their takeover. Add in his divorce and MONs tantrum and that's why we crashed as the money ran out. Cities rise is a convenient excuse for our fall. I'm not defending them though, they're a horrible club.

The team most to blame for how bad we've been is ourselves. We've made bad decisions, after bad decisions and are only now in the last few years fixing them. Blaming other clubs is a victim mentality.

The way this is written, I thought you had a shit whilst on a Teams chat.

Nice to at least have it confirmed what is going on. Comments are interesting too.

Argyle have no manager at the moment so doubt they'd be signing anyone until that's sorted.

Happy for Azaz to have earned a permanent move. Happy for Villa to be making some money. Sad for Argyle (grew up in Devon so they're my 2nd team and watch them fairly regularly). Be good if we can send them another loan but guess they need to sort out their new manager first. Rough week for them.

Is that streaky bacon?

Completely agree. My younger brother signed up to the forum years ago, and not only has he never actually made a post, but he still only reads On Topic. Younger brother's are clearly useless.
