Sounds like the best of some bad options to me if it plays out like that. Iran hobbled would be great.

It's totally irrelevant to Lighthouse's point which is that there is nothing that Israel can do that would change Iran. In a hypothetical scenario where Israel did everything you wanted it to do, Iran's stance would not change, it would still see the existence of Israel as an abomination and it would still be looking to destroy it.

These were the exact type of people that @whelkwas referring to earlier.

"what's the difference?" "Israel aren't continually lobbing thousands of rockets at Lebanon in an effort to randomly kill as many Jews as possible." "you can't look at the bigger picture" How is answering the question I was asked anything to do with looking at a bigger picture? I was asked what the difference was between the two groups and responded. Do you think there's a difference?

That's not the crux of the issue for Hezbollah and Hamas. Or Iran.

It's hilarious that you see no difference between Israel and Hezbollah.

Exactly. It simply comes back to what was articulated months ago on this thread. There is not a negotiating position acceptable to Islamic fundamentalists who object to your existence. What Israel agree or disagree with is irrelevant to these people - they will want them dead and removed regardless.

Could do. One thing for sure is that the current Iranian regime are terrible and subjugate their people. The risk for something worse to come along afterwards wouldn't be a reason to not celebrate the toppling of their regime - particularly because it might not happen.

Because Israel aren't continually lobbing thousands of rockets at Lebanon in an effort to randomly kill as many Jews as possible.

I'm excited if we do bin Martin to see what a slightly more direct manager could do with the likes of Amo Ameyew, Sulemana, Fraser and eventually Edozie. Allowing that lot to actually run and dribble with the ball would a significant new dimension to our game and hopefully give us more of a goal threat - not that that would be hard!

There's not going to be peace in our lifetimes. Removing Iran's capabilities to wage proxy wars will at least remove a significant part of the aggression.

Let's hope so. Fatally crippling Iran would remove a lot of the issues in the region.

Because they are religious fundamentalist who despise Jews and use their interpretation of their religion as justification for wiping Jews off the face of the earth given the opportunity.

I think it's fairly uncontroversial to say the Iranian regime are pretty much the definition of evil.

100%.

Why have Israel launched a ground assault in Lebanon?

Evil Israel provoking the innocent Iranians.

In summary-our players aren't great but should be performing better than they currently are. I have no doubt that a better manager would have us on more points or at the very least made us more competitive in more games this year. It's not necessarily the defeats so much as the manner of defeat.

Personally I think they might give him the Leicester game. If he doesn't win that then there's no chance really and he will be gone.

He also doesn't suit Martin's style of play in the slightest. Absolutely bizarre choice was he scouted by us at all?

When we lose Martin always says it doesn't matter who played or the formation and tactics. It's so frustrating that he doesn't think that's an issue.

It wasn't atrocious last year, there's just more leeway to get things wrong. Two years ago it was terrible I agree.

He's losing it. If it's self explanatory then don't do interviews.

Had some fantastic moments. The first half was my fault. This will be a good learning experience for the players.

Yep. Gave it a good go which is all you can realistically ask for. This isn't that.
