Overly optimistic view... Perhaps the Newcastle takeover will reveal to Saints groups looking for a club who were hoping the Saudis wouldn't get Newcastle and look to Saints now as a second choice.

For a start... Watford aren't better than us.

Thierry Henry was a better player than Arsene Wenger... that doesn't mean he couldn't help him improve.

It doesn't help them between now and January. Plus I doubt they'll be buying a new team in January.

Do you have any evidence to support that claim? Even if true that does not mean that we are owned by the Chinese state.

How would it overcome changes which boot out of the English system clubs that join?

Not literally at all! 😉 Old Trafford is in the Greater Manchester metropolitan borough of Trafford Etihad stadium is in the city of Manchester

Gao is not the Chinese state

He signed a new 3 year contract in July 2021. They aren't going to include 'commitment to buy' in a loan deal a month later to a team with very little money.

What was he hypocritical about?

I agree, the resemblance is uncanny! Fratton... A Brazilian favela...

You are confusing terms. We are currently in an ice age and have been for the last 2.6 million years. It is currently an interglacial period of an ice age, rather than a glacial period of an ice age.

It'll be a very different world and UK after sea level rises...

UK government buildings tend to have carpet rather than a soil floor

1) Why would you never have one again? 2) So in 2040 you'd rather have a 10+ year old petrol/diesel car than an electric car? 3) I have never have had an electric car. But when the national infrastructure improves and prices come down I will.

1) Bedtime reading for you... https://www.ipcc.ch/sr15/chapter/spm/ 2) You failed to address my rebuttal about electric cars and heat pumps.

I didn't. It'll slow it down, not stop it completely. Climate change occurs with or without humans, but the last 200 years has seen our species significantly increase the rate of it.

Global sea level rise that wipes out huge areas of the world and an increase in the frequency of extreme weather events will cost significantly more than the 35 trillion used to try and prevent it. (Don't bring Jesus into this 😉)

1) What assertion without science do you think I've made? 2) You failed to address my rebuttal about electric cars and heat pumps.

Why do you think turning off one source of CO2 emissions wouldn't help? If you run a bath with the taps and also have a hosepipe filling it up the the bath fills up quickly, turn the hose off and it fills up less quickly.

1) The global cost of a significant rise in temperatures is predicted to be significantly higher. A higher frequency of extreme weather events, droughts etc will cause poverty. 2) You failed to address my rebuttal about electric cars and heat pumps.

Do you not agree less CO2 being released than currently is being released would be helpful?

The government is not forcing the poor to buy electric cars in 2021. What the are doing is making all new cars sold after 2030 to be electric. That does not mean there won't be petrol or diesel cars in 2030 or even 2040 or 2045. Eventually poor people will buy second hand electric cars. Plus in any case electric cars will reduce in price year on year as they already are doing. Nor is the government going to force people to buy a heat pump. So where is the poverty you talk about?

There is an element of a snowball effect. For example the melting of permafrost then releases huge quantities of methane. Now for my question...?
