  1. I've just been reading a book on it weirdly enough so I can definitively say that Holland is the only European nation with a higher population density than the UK. The UK has 410 people per square kilometre which is three times that of France, nearly three times that of China and almost on a level with India who have 416. Holland has 497 per square kilometre.
  2. That's plainly nonsense. You could have two world class goalkeepers who through an accident of birth happen to be the same nationality. Both of them can't play yet that doesn't prevent them from being world class. An international team may also not be set up tactically to get the best out of a world class player and thus for tactical reasons they may be on the bench or they may have an idiotic manager who doesn't recognise how to get the best out of world class talent (look at met who was probably in the top five in the world at what he did when he was playing) . For me it's someone who is the top five in the world in their position. Obviously there will be debate with that but I reckon Morgan is up there.
  3. But unfortunately a nurse doesn't make money the way a premier league footballer does.
  4. I think the point is you have to look at the revenue they generate before deciding if they aren't worth what they earn per week. Yes they get loads of money but if we just stick to the facts then collectively the Premier league makes billions and they are the main reason for that.
  5. Did they tell you to include the keeper in formations?
  6. Yep. There's many arguments you take here but that's a pretty stupid one considering how many more came than were predicted.
  7. England never get credit. Although we have been in an easy group, we've performed pretty well and done what has been asked of us. I reckon we may do quite well in the euros.
  8. I think they already have taken some responsibility, hence agreeing to take some asylum seekers and saving thousands in the med by sending the royal navy.
  9. It's very difficult. It's much too simplistic to dismiss people as callous if they question the wisdom of giving all asylum seekers asylum. I think everyone agrees that that photo is awful. The problem we have is that if we collectively agreed to take them all, it would send a message out to all those still abroad to come and try their luck. I have no doubt that many are fleeing war then Syria but there will also be a number of economic migrants trying it on and attempting to take advantage. I'm not sure what the answer is but letting everyone in will just encourage loads more to try.
  10. Nothing to do with player loyalty, it's been gone over so many times already...
  11. You just nicked that from the spurs forum...
  12. What lesson are you talking about? Do you imagine for one second that celtic fans would react in a similar fashion if their players acted like tw*ts and then fecked off to a team in the same league as them? And no one has been anything but supportive of Morgan.
  13. So have you heard of any other deals today then? No loans?
  14. Is VVD the last bit of incoming today?
  15. It's Saint Armstrong on here.
  16. I see Connor is weaseling his way onto the BBC site. Not sure why he is expecting no one in today.
  17. 100% record with sticky threads turning into signings...
  18. If you include the keeper when talking about formations then you are a little bit weird.
  19. When you think about it it's utterly ridiculous that our defence is weaker than our first season up.
  20. Ridiculous to predict 8th-10th. Divorced from reality.
  21. This is the worst game this season so far and that's saying something...
  22. No they weren't. Wanyama took the p*ss out of Barcelona for goodness sake
