    Either buying time, trying to appear reasonable, or, a feeling of: "oh, these people we are liberating? They all seem to be grabbing rifles........"

    Comparing the coverage of everything happening on RT Live to Sky News and BBC News is certainly interesting.

    He wants breathing space between the West and his own border. A few separatist states they aid the security of would be perfect for that. Dread to think if that would involve expanding through the Ukraine to Transnistria though. Now, what to do with the Baltic states and Poland?
  4. The Brentford connection in our ownership makes me think it must be Frank. Their form has dropped off, but the squad there is clearly still playing for him.
  5. Thomas Frank.
  6. If a 40 year old Caballero is worth signing, so is a 34 year old Forster. Taking the GK position in isolation, we clearly need a long term option. What a pity that Forster, for whatever reason was simply not at his best in what should have been his prime.
  7. Absolute condolences to Minsk's daughter and the rest of his family. No words will really suffice.
  8. Beating Spurs is always sweet, beating them like that is just another level.,
  9. Well, that was a vile bit of decision making.
  10. He retired though, so removing himself from the argument in 2004. Was daft shifting him to the left in the first place mind.
  11. Repeated the trick with Delgado and Kleber (Klever?) Chala. Without the success.
  12. Enough with cancel culture. Use the negatives as points to learn from. You erase the bad, you doom future generations to repeat past mistakes. Would be livid if the statue is taken down. Especially as peadophiles don't just manipulate their victims directly, but also those around them to cover their tracks.
  13. Very fresh in my mind too. Celebrate victory or taunt the defeated opponent? Thuggish behaviour by fans of Billy Davies team of thugs at the time. It's tasteless to revel in the misery of others but I shed no tears for Derby.
  14. Scars from experience! I remember THAT Leeds game too vividly......
  15. New owner bounce? It felt very positive throughout, as though the lads had an extra spring in their step. New-found faith that the club is no longer just treading water perhaps? Thoroughly enjoyed that.
  16. We can't just see things out can we! Have to make it nervy!
  17. The clue for me lays in the name: Republic. Individual teams with their own identities and culture who effectively run themsleves but all part of a bigger picture. I don't see a wide ranging rebrand as being either needed or desired. It's also why they were so careful about which club they picked as their starting point, one that didn't need entirely remodelling to fit their vision.
  18. Nice
  19. What they get up to in their own time is none of our business. Reserving judgement on this takeover, but the involvement of the Brentford chap is giving me hope that this is well intentioned.
  20. Nothing mentioned in the article about refunds if you are now unable to make it. Just that the original tickets will be accepted.
  21. Last game I bought tickets for around family commitments was Norwich away...... In 2020. Decided that this game would be perfect before Christmas...... I'm clearly bad luck.
  22. Odds on 9?
  23. Kelvin Davis is in Chandler's Ford. Sofiane Boufal was in Kings Worthy, Winchester, during his time with us. Often went to the little Tesco on springvale Road.
  24. That was outrageous by Ché.
  25. They want him? Cool. Here's our price.............
