Think we would have won. We really miss his outfield play. We won against them both times with him in the team, and mccarthy is terrifying with the ball in front of goal.

It was a hypothetical. How are you going to police your single sex spaces? Right now, one of the biggest issues with single sex spaces is that more masculine looking cis women are being harassed just for trying to use public toilets. I would also argue the majority of preops do have a desire to change. Its not a straightforward or quick process. Even just getting a consult takes forever. The issue seems to be so closely related to genitals, that I don't understand how you will police it. Unless you think you "can just tell"?

The majority might be pre-op, i dont know where your data is from, but even if so, that will be because of the waiting lists. The men who "want to be there to exploit the situation" is a miniscule percentage of a miniscule percentage. You are far far far far far more likely to be attacked by a cis woman or a cis man in a woman's toilet, obviously. The hysteria and panic over the chance of this happening are overblown to a ridiculous degree. And assuming your solution is not genital checks by toilet bouncers, what happens with transmen? If you force transmen to use women's toilets, then your malicious scary transwoman doesn't need to dress up anymore anyway, they can just identify as a transman and go in fully bearded and primed. If you do introduce genital tests, how do you prevent your scary malicious transwoman from getting a job as a toilet guard and getting an eyeful of everyone's genitals? Easiest solution is just to go unisex. Like at the general, they have communal toilets at the front entrance, no issues at all (in fact, much safer than separated toilets).

Didn't know Boscombe and highfield were at war?

Might be misremembering, but didn't we play a weakened side against arsenal in a May game just before the fa cup final against them? And got hammered 6-1? I remember thinking back then was it was a bad decision and gave arsenal the mental edge when it came to the final.

Weird. Why isn't he telling us how important form is and that we have no chance in the playoffs? Shouldn't he be effing and jeffing at our lack of a decent striker and/or goalkeeper?
-
Aim for 7-0, and even if we fall short hopefully we can get 4 or 5. Same against Leeds, and job done hopefully.
-
Are we allowed to withdraw from the playoffs? Don't really want to win, i dont think the fans are ready for another miserable season in the VAR league.

This has all the hallmarks of a saints win second half, which would be disastrous, we can't afford to meet Leicester at Wembley. Hopefully they will stick to the plan and ensure we continue to avoid crossing the ball or making any forward runs. Keep it up lads x
-
Clear offside, it was a kind angle on the camera and still looked off, probably a good half yard once you correct for that. Fortunately, we are better losing today, leicester would be a horrible playoff game and we've got much a better chance against Leeds or Ipswich.

Surprised prem players aren't wearing green boots, it would give them an extra pixel or two for these kinds of decisions.

Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES
pingpong replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
No, I'm just looking for the data that the vast majority of terrorist attacks in the last, say 20 years, are by islamists. We are working from the premise that we were told not to make assumptions but that in the vast majority of cases we would have been right to point at Muslims. I'm struggling to find it, I just keep running into usa data which is showing religion as secondary to right wing ideologies. -
Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES
pingpong replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
Do you have any data to back up "vast majority"? Just looking at some US data, and the majority of their attacks have been from right wing extremists for every single year for the last 20 years. I would be interested to see that data if you have any. -
Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES
pingpong replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
Have to question (again) why when this stuff happens, some people seem so keen to use it for their personal agendas, there's something quite grotesque about the keenness to attribute this to eg Islam in this case. But I guess it does also expose the people who do have discriminatory agendas. i just wish it made them reflect on themselves and why they wanted to get to that particular conclusion so quickly, but I suspect that won't happen, and they will be right one time and it will confirm every bias they have. -
We play 3 times before Ipswich's next game. Win a couple of them and we will be in striking distance...
-
Another way to look at it, if we assume everyone's form stays the same as it is now, and each team gets the same points for its next x games as it did for the previous x games you get: Leicester 95pts Ipswich 95pts Leeds 92pts Saints 89pts. Our only chance will be with extra wins for us and extra defeats for the others. The above doesn't account for the fact we play each other. It is unlikely, but if we win both of the 6pt games against Leeds and Leicester it could narrow the gap, those are our chances to overcome the form and change the outcome.

And here is what the report actually says: "(iv) The Working Group acknowledge there are potential risks for employers, service delivery and workers. **However, the Working Group express their confidence those risks can be managed and mitigated, if a 4-Day Week is properly planned for, and if it is designed and implemented in full consultation with workers and their trade union representatives.** (v) The Working Group considers the risks to manage and mitigate include: >Equality risks: The risk of widening existing inequalities between groups of workers i.e. office workers versus those on the frontline, particularly in 24/7 operations. Given the different gender, race and other characteristics of different workforces in the public sector, there is potential for negative and differential impacts on particular protected characteristics. In some circumstances, worker entitlements to welfare benefits may also be put at risk." So this is just some shitty paper headline. Probably mail or telegraph.

He's shown sparks of talent, but today's effort makes me wonder if he is playing to rule, or is effectively playing on protest. Unless he is ill? He was seriously outpaced by players who had already been running for over an hour.
-
Well, considering how the Ipswich commentators word was gospel on here when they said we don't know who we are playing each week, you'll be pleased to hear that the Blackburn commentators said that it was Blackburns best performance of the season.
-
Because we're dead certs for the playoffs though. In 8 games time, we'll have 3 games left and absolutely everything to play for.
-
Of course not. We have a tactical analysis department and full time positions dedicated to opponent analysis.

Don't think jk rowling has done her cause any favours, nothing she said is even close to breaching the new law. If she really wanted to make the point she needs to actually threaten someone because of their gender identity, not just point it out. So all this will do is give snp a chance to show the law is proportionate. Think this will just go quiet until the telegraph or times do an foi in a few months time and manufacture some shocking headline about the 0.001٪ budget that gets 'wasted on wokery'.

It's been true in the past, although not the easiest thing to get data on. https://www.fourfourtwo.com/gallery/which-premier-league-clubs-perform-best-after-international-break

I was looking at an older year, but the trend is the same. I know why the confusion, because of how they have worded it, but if you look at the maths, it is not "of which". The data is showing that 53% of white applicants get an offer, compared to only 35% of black applicants.
