Fan The Flames

And Alex Stepney talking about being woken up by 'birds'. Players living above a pub or running a fish mongers. Simpler times.

Extinction Rebellion.

It's always darkest before the dawn.

You have to be seriously annoying, but we all know that the police will use the act to provoke groups who are not seriously annoying to kick off. A neat self-fulfilling prophecy tool for the police.

The £58k saved will cover the cost of the stamp duty lost on one road.

The point is it's easy to lose your way, as it's difficult to have a consistent hit rate. We got rid of Boufal and Carrillo at a loss, and we need to offload Lemina, Gunn, Elyounoussi & Hoedt. That's a big chunk of wage bill and a big loss of money and we have no headroom until they've gone.

The trouble is the sustainable model of the last ten years relies on players sales and that approach has got us in to this mess. It's not really a sustainable model as flipping players is a gamble.

Just selling to anyone if the price is right shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, especially in a market with very few buyers.

Brilliant little speech. We can go around like this all night long. I never said what you claim and I've never been banned. You purposely misconstrued something. Of course I remember it because I've never had a posting exchange like it before or since. To you I'm just another poster prick on your long list, do you think your posting behaviour is normal. Maybe people have responded to my post because you've strutted around this forum for years belittling people, you hone in on something and keep chipping away, provoking people. And when they are provoked, go on and on about it for years afterwards. This is the last thing I'll say about it, I'm sure it won't be yours.

I didn't make any joke of the kind. You are sad because you remember all these things that me and other posters have said from decades of postings, which you then bring up time and time again.

It's true you do keep a black book of perceived slights, fuckin sad sack. Those posts were over a decade ago and you purposely misconstruded something and channelled a load of fake anger. And you are still at it. I didnt get banned because I didn't say what you think. Turkish the saintsweb indignation queen.

Gather round psychology students, what we are witnessing here is a text book case of transference.

If climate change isn't a thing, isn't it still a good idea to find sustainable sources for transport, heating, construction etc.

There's a world of difference between a racist system and a hate crime. I said that even if the individual crime wasn't overtly racist, it could still be a product of the system. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/apr/25/minneapolis-police-race-violence-justice-department-investigation I know it's from the Wokie Guardian, but there are facts in there.

You seemed to be saying a lot of people are getting upset lately, LOL. Not upset, it's called a debate and that's not what I said, LOL.

Has any one on here claimed it was a hate crime?

You're getting middle class and middle aged mixed up, classic.

What is the explicit evidence of racist intention that you would want to see, because I think nowadays we have moved beyond that sort of behaviour, things are more insidious. I haven't ranted at all, all I've said it's sad that some people are just not prepared to entertain the fact there might be a racist element. We will never know about Chauvin and this individual case, but we do know that there are issues with race and policing in America. Anyway I'm going over the same ground now.

People are allowed to call things as they see them, but of course you don't like it when people don't agree with your world view. I maintain it's a shame that a white bloke living thousands of miles away feels he is so in touch with the situation that he can't for one minute think that it may be different from his world view. Hiding in the cracks of the story, it's what you do, you hammer at one little inconsistency and use that to drive a wedge into it. I've seen you do it for years on here, then you will continually bring it up years later. You are so obsessed with woke white people and perceived token wokeness that you can't admit that some events might be down to racism.

No I'm not. This is what you do, hide in the cracks and leverage all the plausible deniability. I said with all the cultural history it's a shame that people like you can't accept that race maybe is a part of it. The guy was found guilty of murdering another human being, we will never know whether race played a part in it or not. What's important is that race didn't deny the Floyd family justice.

That's the point, the individual act doesn't have to be racially motivated for it to still be part of and the result of a systemic racist system. America has had slavery, segregation, Jim Crow laws, black code, the clan, lynching, Emmett Till, suppression of voters right, civil rights activist assassinations, education colour bar, unbalanced incarceration, poor health outcomes, socioeconomic inequalities, ghetto housing, lack of political representation, higher rate of deaths by cops etc etc And people still can't think that the murder of a compliant pleading black man just maybe is part of the same thing. There isn't even the slightest little maybe in there from some people. They are adamant that despite America's awful history this has nothing to do with it. Because a black man says America is now alright, there has been a black American president, it has black rich people, hey the cops kill white people too etc etc.

More noise, predictable.

I would have thought the point was obvious, here you are chastising a white bloke for not listening to a black lived experience. Yet your involvement in these matters on this site, suggests you don't listen to thousands of other black voices. You claim on the back slapping 'things that are racist' thread in your hilarious woke character, that you poke tokenistic racist calls because real racism gets lost behind the noise. Well here we are, the most horrible manifestation of a racist system, the death of a handcuffed compliant man whose last breath was squeezed out of him, wedged between the road and the combined weight of a bent cops knee and the blue wall. This is the real racism you were concerned may get lost, but you are not calling it out like you claimed you would, no you are just creating noise to drown in out. Like the others on here who claim to be balanced, yet whose views are always from the same side of the line, your true position is revealed over time simply by your lack of balance.

What about the American black voices that say racism exists over there, will you listen to them?

Quick question, are you the one on the left or on the right?
