The whole affair was a colossal waste of money and some people made a fortune out of it at the expense of most others. Can we all agree now that the lockdowns were too severe and went on too long? There is a generation of youngsters who will never recover from the closures of the schools and colleges. We shall be paying for the responses for the rest of our lives.

Really? I can’t work out all this nonsense.

Tidying up the fringes. Good luck and thanks for the goals.

😳 My wife chose the colour. Daffodil Yellow.

People talk of nothing else.

Oops. I think I’d better redecorate my breakfast room.

Indeed. I had one for over three years after my chest operation. It didn’t clear up until I had the infected wire in my sternum removed. It affects your whole breathing with the movement of the ribs restricted.

No. It’s your FACT and no one else’s. You are inventing your own form of words to replace mine. Besides, my wisdom and thinking has always been superior, even when I was young 😊 To get back to the debate, do you think that Farage is not a bullshitting conman?
-
So obvious that VAR didn’t intervene. The officials have to be even handed.
-
Yes we do. Enjoy your day.

Quite correct. This is something that annoys a lot of people, especially when a player is shielding the ball as it goes out of play. However, shielding does not allow a player to block an opponent by sticking a leg across him.
-
Of course he had time, and plenty of it. He wasn’t between the defender and the ball, he was off to one side. That’s why he fell to his right as he stuck his left leg out in desperation. The defender fell on him because Stu tripped him. Anywhere else and Hungary get a free kick.
-
Now you’ve insulted me again. Have I ever insulted you? It appears that my conclusion is justified.
-
Your facts maybe, but not everybody’s.
-
Yeah, I wondered that. Seeing as how this is a UEFA contest anyway. I didn’t like Steve Clarke’s comment about him not even speaking english.
-
You really are naive. Why, in your opinion, did he stick his left leg out like that at an unnatural angle? Contact in itself doesn’t make any incident a foul. In this case the contact was caused by Stu sticking his leg across his opponent’s. An opponent who had every right to try and reach the ball.
-
You can’t shield a ball by trying to trip up a defender. The foul, if any, was the other way round.
-
Never a penalty. The attacker has a right to try and get his body between the defender and the ball but Stu didn’t do that. He stuck his left leg across at an awkward angle and understandably got caught by the defender’s knee. If he’d concentrated on trying to score instead of win a penalty then he’d have had a better chance. You could just as easily argue that it was a foul by Stu on the defender.
-
Stu only gets his leg knocked because he stuck it across there.
-
I blame the parents.

He banks (or used to) at Coutts. For that you needed to have an annual income of over £200,000.
-
Hmm, tough choice. It all depends on the weather I suppose.
-
Please don’t insult me. I’m old enough to spot a bullshitting conman when I see one.
-
Nobody’s going to bust a gut to get on the end of a cross that doesn’t come over. It’s not as if Sulemana looks up at any time. He just stops and waits.

Farage is rich.
