  1. Lampard favourite
  2. Less than 7000 there. Thierry Henry would be embarrassed
  3. I can’t believe anyone takes notice of his posts. Almost entirely total bollocks. I almost think he is ill.
  4. Fully understand it. There are primeval urges men have and they need outlets. Our era is just a snapshot but probably never have men been more emasculated and confused.
  5. It is on subject. There are societal norms that we conform to and whilst they may inhibit in some ways people know also where they stand and I am largely comfortable with them and as far as I know am not suppressing emotions to build up mental health issues. I genuinely have very little urge to want to cry in public although actually well up easily at a drama on tv or hearing sad stories. Funerals are often place of sadness so crying would be quite normal
  6. If I get angry in a meeting at work should I just let out all of my rage for health reasons?
  7. And super super happy if she was carrying an Angel Delight assuming not Butterscotch flavour
  8. Brighton fans must be torn what with women playing at the same time.
  9. Agree and irrelevant to the thread
  10. You cannot flush away Burnley
  11. I was thinking better off just letting them bowl at stumps and not offer a shot when we get to about 128
  12. Thank fuck the international break will ruin Norwich’s momentum
  13. I must also admit I liked the ‘You cried on the telly’ chants to Steve Smith. From the excellent fly on wall documentary ‘The Test’ it really wound up the Aussies.
  14. It was a 1-0 league game. Routine albeit against the champions but might have been acceptable if got promoted, won a final. The point being society does not expect men to cry openly especially over a football match FFS. A bee sting maybe.
  15. Brentford bubble has burst
  16. Appears maybe Howe might not takeover. Chaotic club
  17. Yeah surely once your captain knows he passes the information verbally.
  18. Ralph crying was pathetic. You may say it is toxic masculinity but we expect strength from leaders. Of course it is ok to cry but there are plenty who seem I’ll equipped to cope and dare I suggest there is a degree of narcissism and expect someone to help them. Often same people are not necessarily over sympathetic to others plight as it is all about them and their lives. We are also lucky to live in a society where people can have huge bouts of sickness and still get paid - if they were going hungry as a result of their absences they might be more inclined to soldier on. I know ‘man up’ isn’t a solution(and annoys you) to all MH issues but should not be dismissed out of hand as a dinosaur’s solution.
  19. Basic premise is that none of us are good enough so all need forgiveness. Whilst of course can pick holes with it but is a tolerant viewpoint not often seen by Bible zealots
  20. Lighthouse can boot him off if he starts one of his Deuteronomy rants and how he wants to fuck toasters
  21. I really hope this doesn’t act as a dog whistle for MLG. Thread been interesting so far
  22. Only if you are selective in reading posts. I have not seen that but you can always find something contradictory to say ‘poor guy can’t win’
  23. He wasn’t at his best last night whatever stats you wheel out
  24. I think a lot of women can struggle in workplace as feel they need to match men. So they put up just as much of a front being tough and can suffer from imposter syndrome. I work with a lot of female managers and some have confided in me and even broken down in catch ups. I know I am a bit old school but also believe most women like their man to be the protector ie not a wimp, despite what they may say. That puts pressure on men to be all things ie tender and macho
  25. Tbh most of what I read or listened to was prior to his massive rise to fame. I heard he became ill but as I had heard most of what he said already dint really keep up with the news and other more recent interviews. When he says there are good reasons for some to be depressed eg being unemployed he is right. Telling someone you feel shit and worthless and inferior to others who can have access to better things isn’t the solution! Getting a job is the key way out of it.
