  1. But what about those who live outside the ULEZ a who up until now have been spending their time driving into it for a multitude of purposes such as work, leisure, specialist shopping? Are they going to scrap their perfectly good car just so they can continue with their routines or are they going to go elsewhere? Then what happens to those whose livelihoods depend on these extra earnings? They will be poorer and their air won’t be any cleaner. Poverty is an even bigger driver of poor health than air quality.
  2. Conned by whom? We only see a small part of it on TV. In any game every player has a history with the referee.
  3. These are not the same arguments. Burning coal in millions of fires is not the same as burning oil in a car. And yes, I was around in 1956 and 1968.

    Why would there be other damage if it were a drone attack? This fire has been burning for some time but you are right to take such images at face value only.
  5. In Transit? Surely we can afford something better that that. A chauffeur-driven limousine might be going a bit far though.
  6. Does he fit the bill?

    I thought it was Ukraine trying a false flag operation.
  8. Top-level professional footballers have fiendishly complicated financial arrangements. Usually they are paid through a mixture of companies and often into offshore institutions. They are even paid a large part of their remuneration in the form of ‘image rights’.
  9. Can I be greedy and want both?
  10. Injured
  11. Capital C for Christ?
  12. Liverpool, innit.
  13. That’s a different word order and turns a statement into a question.
  14. Indeed it is, but you wrote “we would be furious”
  15. It was simulation. If you are ever in doubt then just take a look at what happens with the other leg, the one that is on the other side to any potential contact. The attacker here just ‘pancakes’ his legs much like an aircraft whose undercarriage collapses upon landing. The question is this, “Was he tripped?”
  16. It was a statement, not “would we be furious?”
  17. You’re wasting your time. You are free to waste yours but please don’t waste mine.
  18. “shots on target” When will you ever learn?
  19. “the stat” You still don’t get it.
  20. Different numbers, different stats.
  21. I was referring to the difference in valuation between what we might get for Che and what we paid for Tall Paul. An alternative might be a contract extension for Che but whether he would be up for that is debatable.
  22. It’s time you came to learn that what you call ‘stats’ are not evidence. They are random numbers. If you think there is some meaning or significance in them then I predict a stellar career for you in reading tea leaves. Bird entrails even.
  23. The difference is the length of contract.
  24. Er... There’s logic and there’s WTF?
