But to make a sensible comparison, there has to be broadly comparable and/or relevant context, otherwise its pointless. The only Trump / Hitler is that they were voted in. Beyond that there's as much relevance in comparing Trump to Hitler as there is comparing either to Dangermouse.
-
No idea what happened there!
-
So Trump’s fathers beliefs justify a Trump/Hitler comparison. I’m no Trump fan, but that’s a stretch.
-
I disagree that there is any point in mentioning in the same breath as Hitler. Completely different animals, and I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve by highlighting that they were both voted in. Nobody doubts that.
-
I know the history. Completely different times. Completely different countries. Completely different ethnic mixes. Completely different democratic systems. Completely different behaviour when in power. Otherwise, exactly the same.
-
I appreciate the new rule. I doubt any footballer, coach, or sensible fan would agree with it though. Do you think that the Haller decision was correct?
-
You're off on this. DT was elected democratically, nothing to discuss. Hitler comparison is daft.
-
Making nothing up mate, just applying common sense, give it a try. As Bamford says, you can't score with your arm, so don't use it in an offside decision. His legs/bidy/head were behind the play. Onside all day long.
-
Not sure i understand. Someone could buy us as is. They could do a Gao and not put their hand in their pocket. If you buy Derby, you need to put money in to chase promotion, and then more money to have a chance of staying there. Much more chance of a newly promoted club getting relegated than us with our current squad.
-
Yep, both felt to be the wrong decision. Haller was offside and interfering, whereas Bamford was behind the play and not offside for me.
-
Interesting debate. We have a value as an established Premier league club with a premier league squad,but with the wage and other commitments to go with it. Of course Derby would be cheaper, it's a championship club with the players to go with it. Someone could buy Derby, spend tens of millions and never get promoted, or get promotion and then £100m+ and get relegated. It's a gamble, and hardly a great investment. The truth is that it's impossible to know whether Derby could get to where we are, and if so what it would cost. Personally, I'd see paying £180m for us as a better option than £60m on a project / gamble.

Ramsay is a CB who can play RB. Not sure re Obafemi.
-
Ditto.
-
Playing wise he's done well. He was holding his groin and for a while not moving too well. Looks fine now.
-
Djenepo looks to be struggling a bit.
-
That's the spirit. We'll be fine.
-
I thought we'd have Johnson or Ferry on the bench.
-
He's not unwilling. He's unable.
-
We'll agree to differ on the subject. It's obvious that there's an issue. The club telling us that a) takes us nowhere and b) limited information leads to more speculation. In keeping quiet the club are doing the right thing by the player. He's the important person in this, not you.

I don't disagree with that. The issue though is that there are anomalies. I only know 2 people with long Covid. One mid/late 40's and the other 50. Both in good shape pre Covid. The first is left with arthritis and her latest fb update says: "As we go into the 2nd lockdown I can't help but post my thoughts & feelings whether you appreciate them or not. This photo is me a few days ago. I'm happy, healthy and content and back doing the job I love. As you can see I'm wearing a wrist brace on the advice of my consultant at SGH as I had an appointment a few weeks back and it was confirmed that I have nerve damage in 2 nerves in my wrist due to the secondary infections I suffered as a result of Covid-19. I am currently awaiting an appointment for tteatment in both nerves in my wrist so I can then come off these terrible tablets I take daily in order to stay pain free. Let me be a lesson to you all. The virus is real. The virus doesn't care if you are healthy or not. The virus can cause irreversible damage. Wash your hands. Wear a mask and be mindful of your surroundings. Stay safe...🖤" The second bloke is left with diabetes. I don't want number 3.
-
Covid has either 1. no symptoms, 2.mild symptoms, 3. bad symptoms with complications, or 4. it kills. It's that simple. Dinlo's assume that 1 or 2 are as bad as it gets, unless you're really unlucky and you die. The sad reality is that many people end up with number 3. I know such people. Sure, it's live or die, but it's what you may have to live with if you live.

Behave. We have no right to know anything. There's clearly something not right, hence the press embargo, but we have no right to know what that is just because we're "customers".
-
Seems that way. The fact that there is a press embargo suggests something personal or legal. In any event, it's not our business. Hopefully Salisu is ok and he'll get to play at some point soon.
