Which game are you watching

It wasn’t really. Played for Barcelona, Valencia & Liverpool. Played in 2 champions league finals, won 2 la Ligas and The UEFA cup, played for Argentina. Was Benitez assistant, and despite getting the sack from Valencia, got Alavés to the copa del Rey final. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, he’s a terrible manager. He had the pedigree on paper and at that moment in time ,for a club like ours, it wasn’t that strange.

Despite being a life long republican, this is making me reconsider.

If what you’re saying is true (and I’ve no reason to doubt you), reform is clearly needed. It’s going to be the mother of all battles and I’m not sure Boris has the spine to see it through. A bit of Maggie needed. -

I did t say he was, I said he should be treated like one. A subtle difference obviously too complicated for you to grasp. It’s nothing to do with “standards” or morals or any other sort of pony, that’s for voters/his party to decide. When it comes to the law, he shouldn’t be above it, or treated more harshly than anyone else. You clearly want people treated differently depending on their position in society. -
They won’t be very happy with KWP, he’s obviously not listening to the coaching staff. Anyway isn’t Tino & Liv the same person? Perhaps that’s what has caused his drop off in form, he’s trying to do the job of 2 players.

How is wanting to be independent of Scotland & NI bringing back the empire, it’s exactly the opposite. You do realise it was a British empire and not an English empire don’t you?

The break up of the union will be a benefit of Brexit, but it’ll probably end up saving it. An independent Scotland & RUK in the EU together is a totally different beast to an independent Scotland when RUK is outside The EU. Of course Brexit gives them something to ramp up the whinging, but when given the chance to put up or shut up, they’ll not have the balls to go it alone. Devolution, not Brexit is the biggest danger to The Union. That’s the next battleground.

The only fantasy is people trying to claim Starmer has somehow done something honourable or courageous. If Dom didn’t get a fine for conducting his eye sight “test”, what on Earth possess people to think Starmer will get fined for a couple of noggins and a Ruby. If they conclude (as they did with Dom) that he broke the rules but don’t fine him, then surely whether he’s fined is irrelevant. I’d bet my bottom dollar that more allegations come out regarding Starmer bending the rules. Somebody in the know will want him replaced and he’s left himself wide open to be stabbed in the back. Anyone who thinks this is a one off is in fantasy world. The rules were so poorly written and so confusing they’ll be more. -

Which is why Boris shouldn’t have been fined. He should be treated as an ordinary Joe, not above the law or treated more harshly. Same with Starmer. I’ve been consistent, neither should be fined. Most on here take a different view, they think Boris should be retrospectively fined but Starmer not. I’m pretty sure you’d be using your famous cutting put downs if it was the other way round. -

He won’t get a fine. Durham police has previously said they don’t issue retrospective fines to covid offenders. Fucking hell, if they do the lefties will be going ballistic and quite frankly who can blame them? Nobody should be above the law, but nobody should be treated differently because of who they are. Starmer is a slimy hypocrite, but if they don’t issue fines retrospectively, they shouldn’t make an exception for him. If Dom didn’t get one, it’s pretty hard to think what you need to do for Durham police to do so, -

Lord Duckhunter replied to CB Fry's topic in The Lounge
So the fact the same police force that investigated Dom are investigating Starmer and the fact that they didn’t issue a fine to Dom,stating that they don’t issue retrospective fines for covid offences has no relevance? Once Starmer said he’d resign if he got a fine from Durham police , Doms previous became an issue seeing as Starner called for him to go despite no receiving a fine from the same force. -

Dear god. But you’re right, there was nothing dodgy about it. They’d have done the same with Labour. As Durham police did. -

I’ll ask again. What if he isn’t fined, but judged to have broken the rules in a “minor” way (as Dom was). Seeing as he called for Dom to be sacked, should he resign? -

Dom wasn’t fined by Durham plod after breaking the rules. Has anyone asked Sir Kier what he’ll do if a similar scenario plays out? -

Lord Duckhunter replied to CB Fry's topic in The Lounge
What has he said about a conclusion that there was a “minor” breach of the rules? After all, Dom didn’t receive a fine from the same force after his eyesight testing drive was deemed a “minor” breach of the rules. If I remember correctly he called for Dom to be fired despite not receiving a fine. -

🤣🤣🤣 Tell me it’s an act, you’re not really like this in real life. The Durham police waited until after polling had closed to announce they were re-investigating, it’s why Starmer wouldn’t answer the bird from sky when he knew full well they were. “On Friday” -

This doesn’t make sense. If he thinks he should be number 1, what has McCarthy staying got to do with whether he stays or goes. Unless you’re trying to say the offer was to be number 2 to McCarthy. Fucking hell, if that’s the case we really have lost the plot. -
I’ve deducted Lawrie a few dozen points for having Shilts, KK, Bally and Steve Williams. Turns out he wasn’t much better than Branfoot.

What about “sacked in the morning”, perhaps they were singing it towards the bloke putting the substitutions on the screen. Not my gut feeling, what I witnessed during, after and in the local pubs on the way home, the away support turned against him Saturday. No doubt about it.
-
How many points are you deducting Koeman for having VvD, Mane, Jose Fonte & Pelle?
-
Probably more points than Yoshida & Stephens, who were the pairing when the moaners wanted to watch the Southampton Globe trotters.

1992 & 2010 were noddy competitions. But yeah, I should have written “in living memory”.
