  1. I agree it is positive. There is already peace between the UAE and Bahrain and Israel, however. It is not a peace deal. It’s a trade deal and diplomacy deal which reflects the reality that has existed for some time. If Trump fixes the Syrian civil war or the Yemeni civil war (both very real wars with very real human tragedies) then you can credit him with a peace deal in the Middle East. No doubt Trump’s half-wit base from Buttfuck Oklahoma think he has ended an actual war or something. That’s if the divs have any comprehension at all of what any of the words mean.
  2. Both.
  3. How did the Swiss vote on wolf control? That’s the day’s big issue.
  4. “Peace deal”

    I’m too sexy for this virus.

    Coronavirus

    I totally agree. I can't understand why more wasn't done to segregate parts of hospitals into "covid free" zones and allow other important procedures to continue. I suppose simple lack of manpower may have been the main blocker. If I had been in the situation of seeing someone unable to access treatment they would have otherwise have had, I don't know how I would have reacted, but "badly", I expect. I hope there's some positive news ahead.

    Sounds rough. All the best.
  8. You said Biden was worse. I can't see any evidence for that at all. It's not "partisan" to see a video of Trump spasming, struggling and tottering and concluding he's got problems. I haven't seen anything like that relating to Biden who seems capable of jogging and riding a bike but occasionally a bit clumsy with words.

    Coronavirus

    It is an interesting article, although much of the logic seems to be premised on two outcomes of being infected: - get Covid and die - get Covid and back to normal ASAP Also seems to assume no reinfection is possible. Are there any reliable studies that show long-term immunity and whether Covid is causing any lasting damage to those it doesn't kill?
  10. Are you serious? Trump can't walk far, can't stand up straight, can't hold a glass with one hand, has involuntary arm jerks, slurs, jacked-up pupils, morbidly obese (that's not necessarily age-related but it's not going to help his balance and gait) etc. He's an absolute mess wand in 4 years' time he'll be a dribbling, incontinent wreck, probably much sooner. If he wins and they don't acknowledge he's a wreck, he will face-plant at an event at some point and it will be funny as fuck. Biden seems a bit slow when it comes to choosing his words sometimes but physically he's not exhibiting the degenerative neurological decline that Trump is.
  11. In what ways?
  12. Agreed. Bertrand makes the run off him so when he cuts back he gives it back to Romeu or Vestergaard and a couple of tentative passes later we're backs to goal and a defender out of position or Vestergaard has tried to thread it through three lines of play and given it away. Just carry it up the line and try to win something.
  13. Certainly true that we're going nowhere under Goa but he stands to lose if we get relegated. These reported new folks are having a whip round to spaff other people's money. It's no big deal to them what happens.
  14. I've always thought it odd that he's not a director of the UK companies. Is he banned from being a director in the UK?
  15. That's complete bull. It's easier to leverage a deal for a private company than a public company.
  16. Can't argue with that though!
  17. Well, it's levied on households, not individuals. It's literally not a poll tax and doesn't quack like one.
  18. It is bizarre that they've come up with someone even older than him. Trump is mentally and physically impaired due to degenerative age-related conditions and they've kind of taken those issues off the table.
  19. Yes, I’ve posted the exact rule and the reference on here before but I can’t be bothered to look it up again now. But, basically, Gao admitted bribing officials in China but was never convicted because he acted as prosecution witness. Basically, he agreed a deal. The PL rules said that someone convicted of certain crimes couldn’t run or own a club. Bribery is one of the crimes. But he wasn’t convicted, even though he admitted it in evidence he gave. So they changed the rule to ban people who had been convicted or people who had committed an act overseas that would have been a crime if it had been committed in the UK.
  20. Is that even him?!
  21. Christ, the classic “football consortium”. Grandiose plan. Washed up player as some sort of associate / advisor. No money.
  22. Kat and Gao could have agreed anything. Wasn't it reported before that she had a put option (i.e. the right to force him to buy her out) and she tried to exercise it but he wasn't good for the cash. I'm sure I remember reading about that. They were in dispute.
  23. Don't knock it until you've tried it. I take your point, but the ST revenue is relatively small compared to the broadcast revenue and as long as we don't get relegated we're in no danger of going udne

    They are hoping most people aren't ignorant cunts looking to game it.

    At risk of what, though? Death, sure. But what about permanent lung damage?
