  1. There was an awful lot of purging which is essentially the same thing, bad people trying to “purify”, wether that’s racism or not following the line, it’s still all really awful. Personally I don’t really see a difference, it should all be called out and stopped.
  2. Not sure, but the historian Tom Holland definitely said it on their Rise of the Nazis podcast last week. My point was more about the motivations being pretty much the same - getting rid of those that don’t fit or don’t believe in their message and usually blaming them for the woes. A playbook currently being run by Tories/GOP/Front Nationale etc.
  3. Right Wing really means hardline conservative views and it’s more about being anti anything that is different to your (normally religious views). There was an interesting point made on the Rest Is History podcast that Nazi’s are considered the height of evil (and understandably so) but the numbers killed in their belief is considerably less than those in the name of socialism (Stalin, Pol Pot).
  4. I'm inclined to agree, although would be delighted with Nico Williams or Merino too
  5. I know the Merino links have cooled but ya never know right?
  6. I was actually thinking yesterday Ziyech on loan would be ideal for us as an option for rest of the season.

    I did exactly the same. "why are you so nervous?" "wolves game last year", "but there is 3 mins to go and they haven't looked like doing anything this half." "Yeah but its Villa"
  8. Talking of Time Trials, my big "achievement" of the year in sport was winning a time trial for the first time (only TT I did this year), a 10 mile hilly(ish) road bike (so on the R5) one, beat a few of the decent local TT guys in the process which as mainly a runner did my ego wonders https://www.strava.com/activities/7553926465
  9. Very nice, I have an R5 (which Ive recently upgraded from a 2017 R5) and will never go back from Cervelo. Jan/Feb I would recommend Lanzarote, cooler but not cold
  10. Yeah was gonna say for me it’s the best streamer of the lot, get constant 4K stream to the app on my LG tv.
  11. 3 this weekend: Confess, Fletch - okay, couple of twists Smile - half an hour too long but not a bad horror Sprited - Christmas Carol variation with Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell. Quite enjoyed it and kids loved it

    Or we are patient and consider it as work in progress
  13. I use twitter for news generally, whether that is world, football, movies whatever but the last couple of days have been something else. I think its gone past dumpster fire to baby diarrhoea on the white sofa - Im not sure it will ever come back....
  14. I think he is giving players a chance to perform and basically play for a place in one of his systems. This is a good opportunity to do so.
  15. I still dont think he gets that many chances, compared to say the number of chances Tammy had in the championship and despite a decent haul he still missed loads. I guess we see where he gets to at the end of the season and if he has missed lots if chances, then its the hard task of finding someone more prolific and also capable of doing the work load that Ollie puts in.
  16. Do we think he might approach Spurs about Lo Celso?

    corsa e which is yes a small car, basically 5.5p kw/h for 5 hours a night, but yeah it was a bit of both. If we get panels/battery then it gets even cheaper. I also have a phev Rav 4 and do most of my mileage on the battery (it goes about 45 miles which is fine for 90% of my driving), when its not on battery I get circa 75 mpg on the hybrid.

    So my wife's car is electric and we only do local(ish) miles with it so other than having to pay for charging out a couple of times we mostly charge overnight at home with Octopus and it approx costs us £2.20 for 150 miles of driving which is significantly cheaper than any diesel or petrol. So if you are using fast chargers etc then it probably isnt worth it, but charging at home makes a huge difference.
  19. Hause has been injured since he got there.
  20. I felt at least a couple of times he played an excellent ball and the player he was looking for didn’t make the movement that he required
  21. Watched this last night, I totally agree. Wasn't quite what I was expecting from Kev but an interesting change in tone for the final act. Good film.
  22. Very very true, I remember turning one off after 20 mins a few years back.
  23. I just watched it, it’s okay I guess not awful, not brilliant.
