The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
hypochondriac replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
I don't care why they leave, it's hardly a positive sign whatever the reason. -
Fortunate then that they made a considered and nuanced statement about Israel rather than a brainless and pathetic chant devoid of both.
-
That is 100% correct. Nice post.
-
So you could say that calling for the death of the main thing defending Israel is effectively calling for the destruction of the Jewish state.
-
If IDF were killed, what would happen to Israel do you think?

I missed the chant against the starvation and killing of millions in the Congo and the chants against the Sudanese government. They seemed preoccupied with one particular conflict involving a specific nationality. In fact no mention of any of these other atrocities at all.
-
Reminds me of when I posted the front page of the echo on here during the takeover stuff and we were rumoured to have some Irish people take over. Almost got my mate fired...
-
When we were linked with Rohl it was said we wanted one of their players.

What position?

Thanks ill have a listen. That doesn't surprise me though. Imo labour have been shit in government but shit in different ways that I wasn't expecting when they started. -

So the government have no conviction whatsoever, are slaves to their backbenchers and can't make any savings which means terrible news for autumn and my mortgage renewal. Useless. -
A list takes a long time but I'd have some steely Dan in mine and probably Sam Cooke.

Damion Downs - Official: Signs Four Year Contract

Not sure that's true if we end up where Luton were after 20 games! -

If we sell him it will probably be because he wants to leave or we don't think he fits our new style of play. Given that Still will likely play with proper wingers, I'm not sure where he fits in personally even though I'd probably keep him but he isn't a guaranteed starter. -

I was mostly going on the koln fan forum and an article I read that he was a bit lightweight and lost a surprising amount of aerial battles for his height. That's probably a bit more accurate than chatgpt even though it's an interesting thing to read. -

I'd probably keep him but I can absolutely see the reasoning if we decide not to. -

I'm not sure if he will have the correct level of motivation for us given he's failed for us so many times in the prem now and we are playing a new system. It may be time to get some money for him and look to refresh our attacking lineup. If we do keep Armstrong and Archer though then maybe alongside Stewart and Downs that will be sufficient. -

That could well be true but I'm hoping Spors knows what he is doing. We will soon find out. -

That Chatgpt output is weird. Losing more aerial duels than he wins at his height isn't decent and it seems it has speculated what Downs may do rather than what he has actually done so I'd question it. The main thing is that he is young and still growing so may develop strength and increase his aerial presence. My hope is that he can do that this year though as we really don't have time for him to ease into things if we want to be successful this season. -
I dunno. Our owners could be miles worse. Solak actually seems like a good bloke.
-
Would be a decent signing but if there's one position we don't need signings for it's centre back unless we sell THB, Bednarek and maybe wood.

This. Not sure how anyone could argue tbh. -

hypochondriac replied to Matthew Le God's topic in The Saints
Is he a superior aerial presence? Most analysis I have read suggests he is tall but a bit lightweight at present and loses more of his aerial duels than he should. -

I didn't say experience, I said a track record of performance. Ramsdale did and he was decent. The likes of THB and Downes both had recent records in the championship of performing well and were two of our best players last time out. I'd like to see us supplement those players - assuming we don't sell them - with players of similar recent championship performance in attacking areas in order to refresh some of the lineup we currently have (and my feeling is that Archer will move on alongside maybe bbd and Armstrong). You are free to disagree but it doesn't make my opinion wrong.
