    Sadly that's a hallmark of the modern world and the coseted life that so many young middle class people have experienced. Modern society encourages performative virtue signalling and feeling good over doing anything of any real consequence. You'll get people blocking London every weekend for months and when you see interviews of a load of them they don't even know what they are there for. There's clearly loads of great young people but I do wish the media would just ignore the completely cuntish ones so that they don't appear to be representative of their age group. As regards to some of the people o who are here, like I said the other day I just think some of them are wrong for having the opinions they do whilst they think I am evil for disagreeing with them which tells you all you need to know about them.

    It's not the case for everyone by any means but there's a sizable group of people who subscribe to the power dynamics of oppressor and opressed and view the Israelis as powerful and therefore oppressors and evil regardless of any situation. I found the ideas espoused by David baddiel in Jews don't count interesting in that regard. It's a similar group who believe that black people can't be racist because they lack power. These same people would argue that Israelis can't really be victims of antisemitism because they have the power and the horrors of October are in some way lessened due to the disparity in the power dynamics.

    Lol. Hilarious that you think that's the same thing.

    In fairness it's Eurovision so they're all tone deaf.
  6. And now on twitter reports are that we will look to sign him if we go up but otherwise he's getting a chance at West ham which to be honest was always the most likely outcome.
  7. Is there any suggestion that Adams won't be fit?
  8. Yep. He will get 20 minutes at most in the second leg if we need a goal and maybe a handful of minutes on Sunday.
  9. Another like this is when people say "and then I turned round and said" when there was no turning round at all so the phrase is redundant.
  10. If we signed Downes I'd be delighted but I expect he will have some prem offers in the lower half of the table.
  11. I mentioned Fraser, I can't see us signing Downes, certainly not THB and Rothwell has been crap. We could do a deal for Brookes but I'm underwhelmed by his performances on the whole. Like I said, I was working on the basis that what Saint Cam said was true and we were skint. Given that scenario, my point was we can still put out a half decent team. If we have more funds then we definitely need a Downes replacement and a replacement if Aribo leaves and possibly another striker option.
  12. Not sure I agree with you there. Presumably gk will be an upgrade If we get a THB replacement in and possibly a new rb that defence isn't hugely different from now Agree we need a Downes replacement but Charles will have had another year of growth and will hopefully have some improvements. Smallbone and Armstrong have been consistently in the team all year. Amo Ameyew was unlucky imo to not get more games this year and should be another year older so no reason he can't be successful and you'd have Fraser there as well hopefully and then if we are going with 11 rather than 12 you'd have Stewart up top who may be an upgrade on Adams for all we know. I also forgot about Edozie who would probably play too. No doubt we will get in a couple of attacking loans in or a canny winger signing to replace the ones who leave but I don't see what's so horrendous about that team. I think with a couple of additions that could make the playoffs again.
  13. Good spot! My guess is we will be aiming for playoffs next year. I definitely want some of the young players to have more of an opportunity next year if we stay down. We definitely need a few more, I was working more on the basis like some have claimed that we are skint and even if that's true, we'd be able to put out a team of half decent players.
