Fair points. Requirements to do certain stuff is a different issue rather being obliged by the government to line up and get jabbed. A tweak to Raging bull question - where do people stand on having the vaccine if it's a requirement to watching the footy at the ground, or going on a plane? I'd imagine it'll change a few minds.

Go on, you'll learn something.

I don't agree with any medication or similar being compulsory, that's a step too far for me. If I wasn't asthmatic and didn't know people so impacted by it I'd probably take my chances, and can understand why many would.

Ditto. I caught up with an old friend this week. She has long Covid and has been very unwell. 49. No prior health issues. Runs 10 miles daily. That's the 3rd person I know still suffering. I'd rather take my chances with the vaccine than Covid.

Force

There's been a press embargo, hence it may be a sensitive matter. Whatever the issue, it sounds like he's getting there though, and that he's got huge potential. He'll play when he's ready.

There's no article on the link, but we know he arrived wit a muscle injury and slight niggle, LeG posted above that: "he had a muscular injury and a slight niggle when we signed him"

I get that but the inconsistency of focusing on "cheap lousy faggot" , whilst leaving alone "old slut on junk" directed at a woman made no sense. Slut is no less demeaning than faggot imo. It's probably only a matter of time before the ageist brigade pipe up as well.

Sad times. I read something about a word in the second verse going, but couldn't see what that could be. Perhaps it was pointing to slut.

Random

"Your an old slut on junk" directly labelling the woman as an old, promiscuous druggy. That lyric stays in, without comment from anyone. "your a cheap lousy faggot" has to go. In the context of the song, the fella is straight. Crazy world.

Looney

Err, the word you're arguing against does work, it's just that you're suggesting something that doesn't.

Doesn't work : "arguing he is being "justice" by successor Sir Keir Starmer.

No more inane than moaning about it or posting on threads like this about completely irrelevant shit.

What about, what about, what about. I'll repeat FTF's questions. What's a better word given that his supporters claim his treatment is politically motivated?

I agree with that. Ability wise, I'm not sure there's much between them. Attitude wise, they're night and day. We've been told before about Obafemi not doing what he needs to stay fit and injury free. That's unforgivable. Compare that with Adams, who's so keen to stay fit and injury free that sees someone periodically away from the club to mot his body, iron out niggles before he feels them, and keep him in top condition. That's what those who want it do. Obafemi has the smell of someone who won't achieve his potential, sadly.

Yep. Throughout his time here, he's hired some very good people, got rid of those who weren't performing, stayed out of the football side and left it to the grown ups, not embarrassed us with tweets and other public facing nonsense, and generally kept us on the straight and narrow. The only thing he hasn't done is sunk tens/hundreds of millions into buying players, but nobody with sense would do that. With that said, we've had cash injections (loans) to help us along and it must be that Gao has either provided that or arranged it. I wouldn't want to see anyone come in and meddle with our current set up. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

In his Athletic interview, Crocker said that the loans aren't the way to go, he prefers to see players develop here.

Trouble

It's massive mate.

I think early doors I they would have done. Now I don't think there's any chance. I know of more people carrying on largely as they want than are playing by the rules. Lots of 1 person meeting another, and 1 meeting another, and surprise surprise all 4 at the same place at the same time. This is lockdown lite that'll do nothing but further decimate the economy, particularly hospitality and retail.

That's how you do a lockdown. Decisive, harsh, clear message. If they don't nip that little burst of cases in the bud, it's not for the want of trying.
