Lighthouse

Personally I’m astonished at how high house prices are right now, given that this experimental vaccine has killed 20% of the population. There should be entire streets full of empty properties that estate agents can’t give away but there aren’t. I’m just counting my blessings at how incredibly fortunate I’ve been; all these people murdered by our government and not one single person I know, or anyone in their families or any of their friends has been one of them. The worst I’ve heard is a couple of people with a fever and elevated heart rate for the rest of the afternoon.

Boufal scored a worldie on what I think was his debut. He scored a couple more against Boro and West Brom, the problem was the year of nothingness between each one.

When I see a convoy of vehicles tens of km long leaving Lviv I might be inclined to believe that. Ukrainians already know, and have done since February, they’re in an existential fight against a tyrant who wants to wipe them out and claim their land for his own Russian empire. This is nothing new to them and as scary as it is it won’t change their resolve in the slightest. It’ll just reaffirm their need to fight for every inch of their homeland. For Russians in Crimea it’s different, they’ve been sunning their arses on holiday, oblivious to the, "special military operation to remove Nazis," happening hundreds of miles away. I don’t know why you’re insisting it’s just some symbolic hole in a bridge that’s easily repaired. Firstly I’d wager the intent was to do more damage and possibly collapse a portion of it. Secondly, as I said, this will mean more forces need to be held back to protect the bridge against further attacks and carry out checks on vehicles crossing. It’s all resources which will be drained from the front line.

It’s not irrelevant. If anything’s irrelevant it’s these missile attacks, in the grand scheme of the war. Killing a few innocent people in Lviv and Kyiv will have no detrimental effect on Ukraine’s military. What they will gain is putting the bridge out of order and disrupting military supplies to the entire southern region. Even the idea of disruption will have an effect, when the airbase was attacked a couple of months back, tens of thousands of Russians fled crimea. Now there is talk of disrupted supplies, more are fleeing, others are panic buying, the military have to second guess if the bridge will be attacked again, security has to be beefed up etc.

No, it’s because he’s bottom of the table with Maddison, Ihenacho, Tielemans, Vardy, Daka, Soyuncu, KDH and co.

Even a retired footballer would absolutely cash in big time on media and punditry work.

Agreed. I can’t tell if this is a wind up or if he genuinely believes it but either way, it’s fantastic. Either way, RT would be reading his posts and thinking, “easy now…”

But we spent massive this summer, enough to buy 0.95 Nicolas Pepes.

Time to top up those Qatar Airways loyalty points, Trent.

Good reading and movement there Trent.

He's scored twice in two years and those goals were against Newport in the cup and relegated Fulham. He's not, by any metric, a Premier League player. Saying we should get him back because he's better than Moi is like saying a punch in the face might be a good Christmas present because it's better than rabies.

Because he’s only doing what Armstrong, Vydra, Rasiak, Earnshaw, Akinbeye, Solanke and countless others have done before. Rip it up in the Championship and be absolutely useless in the Prem.

Isn’t it?

Letting him go wasn’t the issue, replacing him with AMN was the issue. We replaced Romeu AND brought in Lavia to play first team football. We’ve still added depth to that position, but we were never going to keep all three. If AMN hadn’t played/trained like a fish up a tree so far, nobody would be missing Romeu.

Whoever we get is going to have to try and avoid relegation with one of the cheapest assembled, lowest quality squads in the league. By all means call for Ralph’s head but if you’re expecting one of Europe’s top managers to come in and take us a big step forward, you’re going to be disappointed.

Nope, that’s different too apparently. Any of the women you have ever fancied in your life could choose to identify as male, so you’re bisexual whether you like it or not. Like I said, there’s no such thing as a straight, gay or lesbian. Next time a bloke tries to tell you he’s gay, make sure you let him know he’s being transphobic.

For £15m I can understand but he would have been our record signing if it’d happened, for a man who’s never played professional, first team football.

About the most positive thing I can say at the moment is that in the four games Lavia and ABK have both played, we scored all of our seven points. When he’s fit again we might start looking like a better team.

Out of curiosity, what would people say is a respectable score, away to Man City with zero respectable CMs?

You think we can get a manager who isn’t?

Personally I’d say it means that they’re being petulant, unprofessional and are completely lacking and kind of game plan or guidance, so have resorted to thuggery as they’re all out of ideas, playing wise. It wouldn’t make me feel better at all.

Do you get extra points for that then?

Death or glory! Slava Saintsi!

This is incorrect, 100% of people are bisexual. Any of the people you’ve been attracted in your life could choose to identify as male, female or otherwise. Therefore it’s clearly not accurate for someone to describe themselves at gay, lesbian or straight. Those terms are redundant.

Under pressure from who? He’s the one driving this, the pressure is on him not to do that, at home and from NATO.
