Russ has indicated that deals were at various stages. There were hints that we might need to shift people out first. This, days after the CoT has a quiet spell, waiting for the same things. Coincidence?

Yeah, I thought that was too long a distance for him to be racing back from one of our own corners. 🙂

Tonight's Headlines: Rock sentenced to 3 years hard labour...breaking rocks. Now tonight's film: Presley classic, Jailhouse Rock Breaking News: Rock appeals. Claims it wasn't far right, that's just the direction it was thrown in. Thread News: Scientists fear SOGs hole digging will reach the Earth's core, sending molten material across the country.

This...with 1000 "this" following it up. I'm now thinking the people who immediately look to shut down the utter lack of self awareness, are just the rest of us, after a few years more of exposure to it.

I barely got the chance to type "it was brunch," before another page and a half of the "Be nice to SOG. He's bound to hit oil, digging that hole" thread appeared. Just seen Sheaf's post, and it will probably be a matter of time before they are shifted. Like Whelk, I know who certainly isn't a victim. We had a near day or so of some heated, but interesting chat. Derailed again. I'm not comfortable with all those protesting immigration being tied into the same sentences as racists or even far right. Linking it directly to football fans brings up old narratives too, and is also uncomfortable reading. With both governments promising and utterly failing to control immigration (to limits they set themselves), shutting down criticism by starting to connect anyone with views with the rioters is not helpful. It plays into the narratives of those groups, alienates others, and increases the frustration of those who feel voiceless, and unsupported by any party they vote for. That, in turn, leads to support of parties that will speak for them. I was going to say or at least pretend to speak for them. But that would apply to all of them. A peek to the continent shoes the rise of such parties.

After the last news week, it would be just our luck, if they get arrested before they arrive to sign. #threadcrossover 🙂

A bit weaker at right back, then. I guess KWP could be a target. 🙂

Besides, it won't be as effective without Baz in goal.

All those times I shouted out "Who was that masked tractor?!" and received odd looks. #vindicated 🙂

It's a bit cold here, but I'm warming myself on the good will that just crashed and burned with your reply. 🙂

Disapointed to read you harassing those poor folk into going to the football. "Look, he only going to come back a sixth time, then a seventh with a 'Come to the football' placard, until we just give in. It's going to mean an end to Monopoly night, our cherished family tradition. But he's not going to stop." 🙂 A heart warming tale of reaching out, and importantly continuing to do so, to make anyone welcome and involved. Because people from all backgrounds can be reluctant, or uncomfortable, at first, for lots of reasons.

Having culled all of SaintsWeb, it's renamed to BadgerBlog. 🙂

Shhh... don't let on that all my posts are just repeats.

On Alcaraz, we looked to him to be a pacey, central player when Selles was looking to counter attack. Elsewhere, he was direct and in a team starved of creativity, sometimes that was as good as it got. Under Martin, he needed to have a much more rounded set of skills. Which he didn't have. That directness would cause problems. So,a bit of frustration all round. He wasn't as versatile as Stu, Aribo or Will. I like him, and hope he comes good here. But if his skillset is better suited elsewhere, it might be better for all of we get a sale. On Fraser, he made a big impact when he joined. That faded a bit, but still an important player for us across the season. If we get a decent deal, he'd be a solid addition to the squad. More do, if he could also fill that wing back position a bit too.

Insane signing! By signing a player with the ceiling and ability of Foo-kin Nowan, we're really showing everyone how our season is going to end up. Well done SR!

You forgot to put in the year. 🙂

Eep, 2 posts in a row... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/articles/cq5dd2lz8y8o More contradiction of IBA, leading to comical (if it weren't for 2 boxers and their families at the heart of it) interview at the bottom. What a shambles.

I looked up an article on the rise of far right terrorism. Forgot how old it was. While reading it, it seems the police admit to having a 2 tier view of terrorism, ... with the far right getting less attention than they should have. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-49753325

Following up my link to the express 🙂 A former police official (can't find link as on radio) saying those involved should look closely at anti terrorism legislation. Because he considers that some of the recent actions do cross that line into terrorism. As much as that seemed like an escalation, it's also a reminder of the extremists out there, happily taking advantage/ stoking these actions.

But only "great" hair. So, not like Stu at all. 🙂

Yeah, I was aware after I posted that it was just sitting there, contextless. Having said that, I do look every now and again at the Scottish version, for their pathological hatred of the SNP, Harry &Megan and undying love for their fav TV programme ( that I assume they get paid to plug)

The express also ran it https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1932225/uk-riots-stoke-police-mosque
