  1. Nothing wrong with that Funnily enough vaccines are not about "you".
  2. At face value, 2 % left the cons to join reform. Is that good news for the Cons?
  3. Seriously though ... if you lived in Birmingham before 1974, you were in Warwickshire.
  4. You must be one of those good-for-nothing, know-nothing youngsters my Dad was always on about.
  5. Born in Toronto ... grew up in Warwickshire ... a little place called Kings Heath. Seen Villa play four times ... twice at Villa Park, once at the Sty and once at Carrow Road. Since 1980, lived elsewhere, mainly Canada. Don't get to many home games ... but would like to watch Villa at Vila Park once more before I die.
  6. Gareth must have seen Ezri filling in at right back.
  7. "Lion reversed" ??? From what it is/was? Oh, the uproar.
  8. Of the fit players, I think we started our strongest eleven. Villa were the strongest team, even in second half Only used one substitute... interesting Diaby seemed to be 'off', but also was not getting a lot of service. Martínez, Good Cash, Really good Konsa, Really good Torres, Good Digne, Really good Kamara, Really good Luiz, Really good McGinn, Excellent Tielemans, Excellent Diaby, Average Watkins, Good Bailey 61', Really good
  9. Two things 1) I suspect the intent is if say Dougie shoots and defender gets his foot head in the way and the ball goes to Ollie behind him in an offside position behind him then it is an offside. 2) Regardless of what VAR says, is it not the on field referee's final decision that counts?
  10. Villa were the better side and deserved the win. Lenglet's goal was not offside Their goal looked offside to me A goal for Diego The corner was part of the comedy of errors that occurred, but was understandable Beautiful assist Dougie, lovely goal Ollie A lot of solid performances, no dreadful ones Ball in the back of the net three times is hardly "toothless". Three headers ... indicative of a solid low-block defence. Apart from that, we were awful against a team that is only second in the Netherlands' first division.
  11. How about advocating for an effective punishment or perhaps a consequence?
  12. Just out of curiosity how many VTers believe: in cause and effect exceptions to cause and effect free will It is the Israel/Palestine thread that is prompting this question in me.
  13. 1) Definitely not out of play 2) Definitely a push in the back 3) Definitely don't have a clue what offside is these days.
  14. I am amazed you have never heard of it before. She was the lead actress in the film of the same name and Sydney Poitier was the lead actor.
  15. It's probably the softness of the local geographic water on the map. There should be a little pale blue line from the Elan Valley to Birmingham.
  16. I can't help but suspect that it is more religious than racial. There is the Islamic - Jewish chasm, and then the political aspects, left - right. Hamas full well knew what the result would be of their incursion. Israelis know full well what the results of their reprisal will be. My particular bias is that I hold the Israelis to a higher standard than I do its neighbours.
  17. Fair enough ... but why are you (we) not pointing out passionately these other alleged wrongs in the Middle East? He is asking whether (perhaps implying) there is a bias. Is that not somehow relevant?
  18. A little rhetorical for my taste ... but it is an interesting point
  19. What was the actual post that got him into hot water? I can't seem to find a copy ... screen shot anyone?
