In this context there isn't an answer Whitey, it's all conspiracy nonsense. The only answer I hear is "big pharma". Bless the people who believe that collective world governments have conspired to wreck economies to boost pharma companies.

So you were satisfied that in the first lockdown that the NHS was ok and able to cope, and that those vulnerable to COVID (at that time, based on what we knew then) would be ok if we carried on regardless?

I always like the lack of answers to these questions. Never get told who "they" are or what they hoped to achieve. The conspiracy guys have moved on from this mate, it's all 5 minute cities and chemtrails now.

Is that a long-winded yes I was against lockdown, or a no I wasn't?

Isn't your position that lockdowns weren't needed?

Kick

Behave. Nobody wanted lock down as such, but the NHS was overwhelmed at times, and the tide had to be slowed. Many opponents focused on death rates only and overlooked the minor issue of people getting properly ill, clogging hospitals, and living with serious effects of covid. Still, the discussion is worth having so a few loons can entertain us with their theories about control, great reset, nwo, and all that nonsense.

"Professionalism" is not a word that applied. The "right people" will not include NC, and neither should it. As for the remainder, you either don't understand or don't want to.

He overspent by tens of millions and irked players, clubs, agents, and god knows who. Sure, a selfish fan not thinking beyond his/her enjoyment may have looked past that, but fortunately Kat wasn't willing to.

Indeed. I'd rather have Jones back as manager than that fella back here in any capacity. Calling him a loose cannon would be a compliment.

Pony

People yearning for NC have either forgotten, or didn't know, what he was like. There are reasons why he left and have been covered time and time again.

Probably about 60 in a 38 game season!

Freak

A goalkeeper who's regularly caught in the wrong position cannot be said to have all the tools. Regardless, his future potential was no good to us last season, and won't be much use to us next season. We need a first team keeper, not a glorified apprentice.

What he might become in someone's opinion didn't help us last season, and won't help us next season. He's a liability.

Length

We'd get Andorra or Fiji or some such.

Yep. Him, Guimaraes and Maddison will be one hell of a trio. No room in there for JWP. I vote Villa for JWP.

I'm not, and I haven't said that. I'm saying we shouldn't be fully dismissive of what he says. We are not going to be told full the truth either, but people swallow that propoganda as gospel. This thread highlights some of the oddities of people's thinking. Example. We definitely won't run out ammunition and equipment cos we'll just make more, but no way could Russia despite their greater levels of factories, people, raw materials, etc. Bonkers.

Even if Putin is half correct about this, Ukraine have had a spanking. Sure, Putin will add vat to the truth, but this instant dismissal of the idea that Ukraine have had a bad week or so is a tad naive.

Here's Putin's take on recent events. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/6/13/ukraines-losses-catastrophic-no-need-for-martial-law-putin

Huge amounts of propoganda, that some people seem to mistake for fact.
