Worse? They would be entirely fucked

And combined, we are just managing to let Ukraine lose slowly. Imagine if half of that was cut? what is not factored is the type of support the US give, intelligence, command and control, deep strike missiles. Stuff we simply do not have. some of the good kit we provide requires the US extended support

They would pretty quickly if the US turned off the tap. Our thoughts and prayers from Europe would only go so far

Same in Israel. Hamas could have released all the hostages on Oct 8th 2023 and saved everyone a load of trouble

It is farcical to think that the slaughter of Ukrainians daily is what is keeping WW3 at bay. No one thinks, not believes that That war would be over in weeks/months if the US turned off the money, resources and support to Ukraine. Probably saving 1000s of lives.

Why would it trigger WW3? is Russia going to hit NATO? We know the answer to that

Any president can turn off the tap to Ukraine

I suspect it won’t turn out as everyone hopes, these people will likely never ever be at peace. But if the total annihilation of Gaza stops here, thousands of lives are spared and hostages / prisoners are exchanged, this should be celebrated hugely

And without him they would not be at the point they can agree on the framework we have now. Even the BBC have been praising his input and overall guarantees only he can provide It appears organisations like Hamas respond to threats as opposed to thoughts and prayers

Sports Republic are terrible owners

Behave yourself

Nothing achieved? The fact we are where we are is an achievement in itself, given Hamas themselves have said it’s over. This is pretty remarkable given every left-leaning politician and media outlet framed Trump as the next Satan. There is no doubt skirmishes will continue, as they have in pretty much every single hot war in history immediately after a framework for a ceasefire etc has just been signed/agreed. I am sure if you scrolled back a few pages this very peace deal was knocked back because… Trump. Trump is clearly a massive twat, but the derangement people have with him is weird, the running commentary on all things USA is weird. He has done more to end this and exchange hostages/prisoners than the gesture politics France, UK and the likes of Canada has done combined. No doubt Trump will commit astronomical amount of funds and resources into rebuilding the area, whilst being slated for it and those slating it offer almost nothing in comparison other than prayers and thoughts (and more protests)

Concur

I think I like this version of England getting the ball forward into dangerous areas far more quickly lately

The US are the only external player that matters to be honest, and this breakthrough, that the great and good said would not be possible, would not happen without the US President’s considerable influence. one thing is for sure, the EU/UK really do not matter when it counts. long way to go yet!

Not good enough for what? If they were from the last time round, they were good enough to get promoted, with additions like Azaz and Fellows who are genuine top players for this league. Ffs, we have loaned out players good enough for teams currently much better than us Scienza looks good, as does Jander if Russell Martin could get a tune out of Che Adams, who was considered a joke the last time were relegated, it can be beyond expectations that we expect Still to be much better than we have seen so far.

He “needed” a winger and a No.10 to the play said winger at wing back and the No.10 to the right of a 3 brilliant

I am normally the same, but Traitors is very good IMO I really hope the main show retains its authenticity and not have Z listers / those seeking fame.

Usually not a fan of celeb versions of these sort of programmes, but this looks like it could be good. as you say, most of them are pretty well known.

So, they have have signed, or about to sign, Trumps peace plan after all. well done to the US President, yes?

What do you mean replacement found? We can't signing anyone until January, right?

I hear the most popular street food in Handsworth, Birmingham is pan-fried Swan...lovely.

who the fuck knows what Still sold at the interviews.

I find House a pretty poor local journa, lately at least. He is pretty sneering about anyone questioning the club/manager, other than those saying we should be doing better. If he gets the gig of interviewing anyone, there will be few hard-hitting questions, and any he does pose will be light, ft at all, and not followed up with anything meaningful. We all Blackmore will go no where near anything too pressing. Neither are fans, which shows....

I do not recall being in this mess with Gao
