    I typed a quick reply to you whilst doing other things, bizarre you think it takes me much time at all or that I'm particularly bothered by your mischaracterisations. Pointing it out is like shooting fish in a barrel love. You've ignored the other video I posted with views totally opposed to my own so you're wrong. As usual you've demonstrated an inability to listen to anyone who doesn't agree with you. It's why you freak out if someone challenges your narrative of "facts." It's a shame but I can't see that changing unless your approach does.

    What the fuck are you talking about? I didn't scour anything, it popped up as the latest triggernometry video on YouTube - a channel I am subscribed to and just like I listened to Norman finkelstein on there and others with views I largely disagree with I gave it a watch and thought he raised some interesting points. You've been banging on about other people being closed minded and not looking at a range of opinions yet when I demonstrate examples of doing just that - you mischaracterise it and suggest I'm doing the opposite of what I'm actually doing. Why not practice what you preach and seek to engage sensibly with views opposed to your own? You never know, with a sufficiently open mind you might actually learn something for a change.
  3. For good or bad we will be playing russball or a variation of it. I don't think Sulemana for example can do anything other than use pace and dribble which we clearly aren't going to do much. Alcaraz may have some success but I'm not sure he can be effective out of possession for the team. Could be wrong of course but it wouldn't surprise me if they are sold or loaned out.
  4. If they didn't play in the championship I don't see why people think Sulemana and Alcaraz are going to play I nthe prem. I don't think either suit Russball and we can't afford to have them on the wage bill and not play them.

    If you're not closing yourself off then I'd give the link I posted a watch. He's challenged on his views with some of the talking points from here and imo counters them quite effectively.
  6. Couldn't care less about what Sunak is doing as he will be out and irrelevant shortly. Labour will be running the country so they are now the ones that need analysing.

    I don't agree with him on that point but he is using support for Sharia Law to class a majority as radical. I certainly consider Sharia Law to be regressive and in many cases extremist and barbaric. Even the politifact website debunking his claim accepts that there are potentially millions of radicals just not the hundreds of millions that he claims. I agree that immigration should be more rigorous in vetting people who enter western countries. I certainly wouldn't restrict it solely to Islam but there are clearly Islamists entering the country who don't subscribe to liberal Western values and may potentially present a danger (look at the terrorist attacks perpetrated in some cases by radicalised immigrants.) I'd have to hear his reasoning for the final point but on the face of it I don't agree with him regarding mass deportation. Regardless, I wouldn't close myself off from opposing viewpoints from the likes of Shapiro due to not agreeing with some of his opinions.
  8. Yep. Gk, rb, lb, winger, DM, AM, striker needed as an absolute minimum.

    At this point I consider criticism from you to be a badge of honour which is unfortunate because you weren't always this insufferable. You left you objectivity and notions of balance behind long ago.
  10. That may well be the case and I agree we need an upgrade on Aribo at least but then who is playing the dm role in the event that Downes is unavailable? Surely we need a mixture of new starters and players to strengthen the squad.
  11. Whilst I sort of agree, hypothetically if we sign Downes it's unlikely we would get someone better. What we would need in that scenario is someone to replace Charles in the squad who can do a job if Downes can't play for whatever reason. It's unrealistic to expect two top costly signings in that position.
  12. Can you dislike Diane Abbott without being a racist? Why does she provoke a greater feeling of dislike compared to other black politicians do you think?
  13. 100%. Starmer is doing exactly what he needs to by appealing to the floaters and ridding himself of the Fringe loons who make the most noise.
  14. Positive news keeps coming with Starmer ridding himself of hard left headbangers and weirdos like Faiza Shaheen Shaheen and the ginger weirdo from Brighton. Maybe he is serious about making positive changes in his party.

    You're hardly in a position to criticise the posting quality of others on here. You're nicknamed ain'tclever for a reason...
  16. Couldn't agree more. Absolute madness to look to renew McCarthy's contract based on a small run of games at the end of a championship season. We have needed a quality goalkeeper since Forster (and arguably during his time as well.)

    Nothing inconsistent at all. I react to ill-informed or nonsense posts or posters on this internet web forum. That has little if anything to do with listening to opposing viewpoints from people who actually know what they are talking about or have real knowledge of the subject they are talking about. Therefore I'm much more likely to listen to what Bassem Youssef has to say for example even if I disagree with him almost entirely compared to what ever sweary rant someone scrawls on this forum. Occasionally you'll get a few decent opinions and arguments on here but much of it only deserves derision and mockery and consequently that's what it will receive.
  18. Was he at Wembley or was I seeing things?

    In your black and white world yes. I entirely share all of his opinions. Simpleton.

    Still struggling to see what is so heinous about him that you'd disregard anything he ever says. As whelk says, my guess is you'd be keen to disregard everything he says because he doesn't align with you politically. I'd prefer to listen to educated people I disagree with on subjects like Israel and Palestine so I have a better understanding of their perspective but everyone is different.
  21. Even better so he should be fully recovered.
  22. Should be recovered in time for the new season then and a potential loan move.

    Just had a closer look at your link. Other than some phrasing that some may object to, most of that is fairly uncontroversial conservative opinion. Struggling to see why that would prevent you from listening to an interview of his. I disagreed with Norman Finkelstein but I listened to what he had to say regardless.

    Guessing you didn't watch it? Might be better to actually see what is said rather than dismissing it with an Internet link. I listened to his interview and previously one from Norman finkelstein who gave the opposing view and found both to be interesting and worthy of consideration.
  25. I never heard anything baiut bednarek wanting out.
