Lighthouse

I think it was August - November 2013, if we’re talking league games.

I'm not your guy, buddy!

Interestingly, not every paper thinks this was yesterday’s main new story.

5:45 for their goal, looks like Holgate is playing Bartley on at the time of the first header.

I’ll go and get the car battery and jump leads.

I’m warning you, she’s had a big bowl of fibre and some coffee.

Okay, I think we can all do a bit better than this with regards to each other. Clearly an emotive subject with some strong opinions but there’s no need to get personal with who is and isn’t anti-whatever. Play nice or I’ll drop Tubgirl in this thread.

What on Earth are you talking about?

Nobody is denying the suffering of Palestinians, this is probably the most frequent straw man I’ve seen in the last month. There is nothing but media coverage of the conflict and the suffering in Gaza. There is no valid holocaust comparison here, you might as well say it’s akin to ignoring a letter calling you up for jury duty.

I’d agree with that. Also the third oldest player in a squad with quite a lot of 33 plus players. We’ve got to be looking at a red ball batter, with those two departures.

Which 6.1 goals were they, exactly?

No, you’ve taken the analogy far too literally. In fact the Nazis aren’t even in that analogy, the point was that Chamberlain came back from Munich with a piece of paper, proclaiming that it ensured "peace in our time." The point is about the illusion of peace and the idea that it can be achieved through pacifism and signing agreements. Again you’ve missed the point but to answer your question the only thing standing between them and wiping out Israel is the fact that their military is sh*t and Israel’s isn’t.

No, that wasn’t the point at all. I was pointing out the futility of signing a peace accord which at least one side clearly has no intention of adhering to. I could also have used the 2015 Minsk protocols but you get the idea.

I don't fancy Young Boys.

Yep, I was in the dry side. I think that was the game I got really drunk and ended up chasing a squirrel through Queen’s Square.

Pompeylass was dating Sir Griff, who IIRC was sadly killed in an incident outside a nightclub. Jill was a different poster who disappeared a while back. Somebody posted that she had also died after a long battle with drug and alcohol problems, although I don’t think that was ever verified. She was the one who had some kittens stolen by DSM, who I once shared a lift with to an away game. Al da Man is alive and well, as is Baj, they just don’t post here any more.

Patience, they got there in the end.

Nothing wrong with VAR, this game is just nuts. It reminds me of that one when Spurs threw away a 2-0 lead and Leicester were crowned Champions.

Martin Brundle’s grid walk. It used to be quite interesting and amusing, now the producers have clearly told him to go and talk to self obsessed cretins like Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Thee Stallion, in the hope of cheap headlines and confrontation. Brundle has even said himself he hates doing it.

WTF is this game?! 😂

Is Ray Charles the VAR for every game now? That challenge was redder than a haemophiliac, Labour voting, Chinese baboon’s a*se.

On to the next one. Two sides in decent form, they've won their last three and five of the last seven. Our last meeting was an awful 3-0 defeat at The Hawthorns in 2021 but before that Saints had won the last five contests in all competitions.

No they aren’t. Current estimates are around 10,000 Gazans killed in the month this conflict has been ongoing. Horrific but if they really wanted to kill as many civilians as possible, they could have done that in half an hour. Hamas, without any heavy armour or an air force, managed to kill 15% of that total in half a day. You’ve got it completely arse about face with regards to who is trying to do what.

Is the US’s stated aim to obliterate the sub-human Gazans off the face of the earth?
