Very true. What Ukraine lack (significantly) is quantity, which is a huge quality of its own. Russia have enormous resources and can just keep going, throwing thousands and thousands more conscripts at it. The interesting point, overall, Russia's Air Force have remained at arms length and have had low/moderate losses (largely because of the kit Ukraine have been given), Russia's Navy has barely had a scratch (less useful in this situation) and their Strategic Forces have hardly/not been involved at all. The chances of Russia just withdrawing (without something in return) is small, so this will keep going until the USA have had enough. Before the USA have had enough, more stress will be placed by NATO/Allies on Russia's wider forces in Northern Europe, the Med and the Pacific. Keep their costs spiraling.....hell, ours are, so why not.

They lie a great deal, especially about these subjects

Were there lies about WMD? Did we get the truth about COVID? Has there been staged bodies in ukraine (and covid)? Has the US public been given the full story about the 'laptop'?

Russia.

You / we would do well to dismiss nearly everything we are being 'told' It is pure propaganda to keep the masses in the West 'onside' Soon, it will all be about Russia running out of ammunition/ missiles again* and how Ukraine is winning.....it was absolutely hilarious people on here and anywhere, talking about lack of munitions as if it was remotely credible. As Soggy said, the first victim of war is the truth.....and that is a fact with what we are being spood fed.

we are not at war

As our armed forces facing more cuts, I should imagine our contribution would barely last a weekend in all out war - given we had about 8 days worth of ammo before we gave loads to Ukraine - for such a scenario.

it is as neutral as you are. This conflict is very odd, from a information PoV. Pure unadulterated propaganda feeding the machine.

it was a truly horrific performance

football fans being football fans....

They are 1 transfer window away from a type of claim like..... "we dont buy success, we breed it"

2 heavy-weights in the saints twitter-sphere... I have to admit, that Rob does come across like a minor saints celebrity... A SFC version of this guy

When a presenter apologises during a live broadcast if swearing is heard from the interviewee/the background.

then 2 weeks before it is too late for all of us

less than 2 weeks to go.....enjoy it mate

on the flip side, if 7/10 of these players become worldies, they will have paid a relatively low fee and paid them relatively low wages....in 5 years

Get away with what? They have bought big, but spreading the risk over 8 years or so. Which was perfectly within the rules.

We are now within the last 2 weeks of our civilisation. And we end it all with relegation, ffs..... The threat is THIS real

He can hardly control a football and is knackered after 30 mins

Being a photographer like that must be pretty sad..... I know, I know, they probably make a very good living.....

Ref was good to be fair. Let a good amount go also

McManaman, Ferdinand, Owen are fecking gash as pundits

That was a save at the end!!!

No way did he 'make' that save.... Edit, it was a save, but Lukaku has to score there

That really was 2nd touch for Lukaku being a tackle (and a yellow)
