Because they have.

I think collective punishment is a generous term for what's happening.

The plan has been transparent from the off. Smash the shit out of everyone and anything up north, push them south, repeat, push them further south, repeat, push them to Rafah, repeat. I find it genuinely staggering that people haven't seen that, and seek to defend what Israel have done and are doing. The sad inevitability is that Hamas won't ever be defeated as an ideology, and interestingly western media are finally making that point - the fella on itv news at ten last at night being one.

Yep. The sad truth is that most strikes probably do hit their target.

Very sad. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3ArnYquu3O/?igsh=dmx6dTI2MjJxMTY1

Ditto. What impressed me as much was his dropping to the RB position, starting the move, making a lovely run, almost demanding the ball, then checking his run slightly ready to receive. The kid can play.

You said you wouldn't want someone with Starmer's views in charge, or some such. The choice is him or Rishi so unless I'm missing something, you'll have to plump for Rishi if Starmer offends you do much.

Most people are. Starmer is. It was Sunak who keeps dragging this up. The masses don't give a monkeys about what Starmer thinks on this issue. As you say, it's gutter politics from a busted flush of a PM.

So you'd prefer someone in charge who behaved like Sunak did in the commons? It's one or the other.

Really? I don't think his views on that issue in any way shows his fitness to be PM. In contrast, Sunak's juvenile and misplaced crassness says a hell of a lot about his judgement.

Yep, but even then, it's a point that doesn't take the Tories anywhere unless they're so desperate to run an election with trans attitudes as a live issue. Shit politics from a shit PM.

I'll settle for no injuries or suspensions, and giving them a good game. We won't win, absolutely no chance, and it'll be interesting to see how we get on chasing the ball.

Depends what sort of food you're after. If you want a Sunday roast, than nowhere in the centre, although Bacaro at ocean village is excellent.

Seems a curious use of vital resources.

Hmm. Edozie on the bench is the highlight for me. Interesting to see if Charles plays CB or RB.

It's on paramount+ in Australia so it'll be streamed. Alternatively, find someone with a paramount login, point a VPN to Oz, and Robert is your mother's brother.

Interesting. Do you know whether Simeu injured, or just completely sidelined?

Alex too. It's a backwards and forwards that can be summarised thus: Our navy is fucked.

Unusual perspective imo. The fault with us hiring him lies entirely with us.

And this thread sir, has been a buffet. There's been everything a forum member could eat. Tips, humour, cynicism, banter, tears, blood, sweat, and clues to excercise old and tired minds. What's not to like?!

There's more freshness in this thread than a loaf pulled straight from the oven Marky. Long will it continue. Personally, I thought a few pics were giving things away. Your ideas, as groundbreaking as they are, are very labour intensive - imagine the complaints if there's a delay in releasing a picture that will allay your fears that things aren't moving in the right direction?! They'd be mutiny.
