  1. Exactly.
  2. The interesting question is whether the ref would give it if he didn't fall over. He should but often they don't.
  3. He's made sure the ref gives it but that's a clear foul. You've got no business wrapping both arms round a player. Foul.
  4. That's a hard one.
  5. Yeah, agree completely. Hope it's 0-0.
  6. Could GM's much-heralded collapse of Deutsche Bank be getting nearer.... http://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/apr/21/greece-to-ask-germany-for-billions-in-war-reparations ?
  7. Anyway, I am pleased with the renewed impetus and the material progress that has been made since the extension was agreed. We're really rattling through those issues now.
  8. Is this true? Smells a bit like a badly-formatted copy and paste from some hyper-partisan echo chamber. When I went to private school we did: - more subjects than my state school friends (I did 12 GCSEs, most of them did about 9) - proper subjects (I did Chemistry, Biology, Physics, two languages, humanities etc. - my state school mates did "science", "food tech", "PE" etc.) - an Additional Maths GCE (this was based on an old O-Level course and much of my maths A-Level the next year replicated it, which led me to believe that subjects certainly had been dumbed-down over time). So, in a nutshell, I did harder exams and more of them. Obviously I had better resources available and was surrounded by a culture of expected attainment, rather than one which treats a "C" as something good, so I did have those advantages. I would be surprised if good private schools are taking notably easier GCSE courses as a strategy. There have always been some differences between the various exam boards from year to year. Further, a lot of private sixth forms nowadays offer the International Baccalaureate, which is generally considered to be more challenging than A-Levels. P.s. why is this on the Brexit thread?
  9. Loan or perm? It would be a result to get his wages off the books.
  10. Not really. We've been **** apart from for 25 minutes.
  11. Smart lino.
  12. There's a bit of quality we've been lacking.
  13. Need to score in the next few mins or Benitez will make a tactical change to cut off our momentum.
  14. Prowse time.
  15. How can the ref give them a foul for that?
  16. Yeah. Long and Lemina on. JWP and Sims off. Go to a 4 with Stephens at right back. 433
  17. Have we been that good lately? We were crap against Brighton as well but luckily they are pathetically bad. Squad still needs a major surgery.

  19. We deserve that. We've been dreadful all over
  20. Why not leave Sims or Redmond back though? It happens far too often!
  21. It was a clear red, mind.
  22. ****ed by our own corner again!!! Terrible.
  23. Paul Allen recently launched the biggest aeroplane. Fact.
  24. Bolasie wasn’t exactly a secret though; he was already playing in the PL. That’s no use to us as we won’t be signing any players with a track history in the PL, apart from the occasional jobber like Long / Austin / Romeu. We need someone who can sort the wheat from the chaff when it comes to overseas leagues and our lower leagues.
  25. They have had a few decisions in the league, although they got stitched up by an offside Liverpool goal in last year’s Champions League. But ******** to them. I’ve no sympathy for any bad luck befalling the “big 6”.
