CB Fry

It meets the criteria of something not true that he knew was not true when he said it. Or, if you like, a lie.

"We have the best midfield options in the Premier League"

Chump.

We are never ever going to score.

So I did a quick early check on Kodi just now and Sportsmania working for the Liverpool match. Was expecting to have to change something but all is the same as before, easy as pie. Take THAT, copyright law!

You've crammed a lot into those three posts but all in vain. I'd recommend that you get used to the idea that VVD will be sold for big money this summer. It's far more likely than not to happen. I'd say 80/20. He's too good for us already and if MCFC or CFC come in with £50-60m then we will take it and he will go because it would make him one of the highest paid defenders in the world. It doesn't mean giving him an extension was wrong last year - clearly it guaranteed to keep him for this season - and his current hefty contract at least means that the likes of Liverpool won't afford him. Who knows, his injury lay off might just make him think he wants to give us one more season, but in reality it probably reminds him how precarious his profession is and to advance when the chance comes. We move on to the next centre back, we have had a pretty good record of picking them.

Theresa May and her legs are on BBC1 now. Interviewed by that well-known pinko wet leftie remoaner snowflake Andrew Neil.

I like Puel in a gay way.

Even when they are owned lock, stock and barrell by yet another foreign businessman with no previous connection to the club you can absolutely guarantee they will find some way of describing themselves as [the biggest ever] fan-owned club.

The only person belittling people on this forum is you sweetheart. Let's not forget your repeated claims that the fanbase of our fantastic club has been "brainwashed". I'd never say something so cretinous but you, quite happily, will.

We haven't had release clauses for anyone else so I doubt we've started with Tadic.

I blame that 2K16 Puel myself.

I am awfully sorry for jumping down your throat. Must have been a difficult time for you.

Who says he was useless and not wanted at any cost by Saints? Most reports suggest he certainly was wanted but not at the cost quoted. And not really surprisingly the CB we signed as squad-filler emergency cover hasn't played yet. We've not needed him.

With your track record I suppose it isn't surprising that you can't actually understand how Comic Relief works.

I'm no US constitutional expert but a newly elected President can't get one of his flagship bills through his houses of parliament when his party has a majority in both? Sounds like an utter clusterf uck to me. Feels like a victory for sense though.

You only have to listen to any given vox pop from the campaign or now to show which ideas permeated and which didn't. The BBC handed the leave campaign victory by ensuring blithe assertions were given equal ranking editorially versus actual information/analysis. Anyway I remember during the campaign one of the reasons you gave for voting out was because you didn't like the way big business and management consultants were running the country. You're, like, so informed.

You do understand the BBC do this now, right? Who else do you think decides who appears on the BBC? As I said at the start, I didn't think you'd have the remotest chance of understanding the point.

Ten seconds on Google gives you Sheffield Wednesday, Sunderland, Bournemouth, Crewe, Huddersfield, Brighton, Leicester, Grimsby. Countless clubs up and down the leagues have sung it. Portsmyth me right up.

The BBC put academic/economic experts and consistently paired them against polemicists/political figures/opinion formers/celeb journos. The sensible thing to do would have been independent expert and then two opinion fomers/celeb journos from the two sides. But they never did that. It's a common BBC trait seen a lot on medical matters/climate change/science where actual experts are treated in equal terms with ranting hobby horse pressure groups/newspaper columnists. The roots of the MMR scandal can be placed squarely at this practice where the "on the one hand...but on the other hand" was used in this utterly imbalanced way. All opinions are not equal. There are books about this topic written by experts about this very thing. But Richard Littejohn will tell you it's not true. And both of those positions are, like, equal and that.

I will forever be thankful for Channel 4 for giving me the inspiration for the gag I wrote on this thread and hour ago which I think quite frankly is one of the most perfect posts I've ever written. So that's something.

I listen to radio 5 and watch BBC news as well and guess what was made crystal clear to me over and over again? Iain Duncan Smith and Dan Hannan and Tony Parsons rabbiting on about how we can stand on our own two feet etc etc. It's kinda like that the BBC both equal airtime, ain't it?

I wouldn't expect you to understand it. An experienced economist or expert in the machinery of government or multilateral trade negotiations has a knowledge and an opinion of a far greater than equal worth when compared to Julia Hartley Brewer babbling sh it about German car manufacturers banging the door down. The leave campaign got weeks of that courtesy of the BBC.

There's drivel and then there's drivel.

The BBC was favourable to the Leave campaign to an unbelievable degree, and their fence sitting was absolutely critical in delivering the 52%. The BBC fell over themselves to give 'equal time' to both sides resulting in countless 'debates' where a genuine economic expert articulating sensible points was given equal weighting to the dribbling of Kate Hoey or Jethro out of Wetherspoons. This happened day after day after day for the six-eight weeks of the campaign. It was pretty obvious to me where that would lead and it did. Anyone tracking the airtime that Farage got cannot possibly accuse the BBC of being biased for Remain. They killed themselves in the pursuit of balance and handed Leave their victory on a plate.
