I can't help thinking there must be a more efficient way to invent non-stick frying pans and velcro.
But it's good we solved all the problems on earth before spending billions on going off to cause problems somewhere else.
I voted 'fence'. But hear me out...
In reality I do believe that the moon landings happened.
But if I were going to choose a conspiracy theory to believe in, and defend, this would be high on the list. Here are a few thoughts:
Faking the moon landings would be hardly less crazy than some of...
Alphabetical ordering is just a convenient way of arranging all the teams at the start of a season. It doesn't actually define positions.
In reality, before the first goal of a season is scored, we are both in every position and also not in every position. And every outcome is still possible...
Aye, that is probably true. Which begs the question of whether ducking the truth counts as sensible political pragmatism or political cowardice? Therein lies a whole new debate, but since this thread has stayed surprisingly reasonable so far, let's not go there!
I am sure the poorly regulated job market is one part of the 'pull'. Along with multiple other factors, including many linked to our colonial past, our long history of being an open, tolerant society and also using immigration to our economic advantage. I am certain there are also multiple...
I'd be bloody ECSTATIC with a draw. The squad now has huge potential, but it's very early days with a new manager and we've looked understandably disjointed and exposed at times in all three games so far and I'm in the 'riding our luck' camp regarding results. Arsenal completely outclassed us...
Think Igor does do some things very well. He carries the ball forward probably better than any of our other defenders, has some genuine skill and obviously (just LOOK at him) is strong and doesn't get bullied. Set against all that however is his (lack of) speed and agility. Unfortunately I...
I suspect 'assess and take a decision in January' will be featuring quite a bit in Brighton planning at the moment. Need to see how new players settle, how the system emerges, who Fab prefers and which players are happy to be rotated vs starting every week. With five subs useable, high intensity...
I am, for reasons explored on other threads, increasingly loathe to get involved in political debate on this forum (or any other social media).
But if you are genuinely interested in the nuance (not the politics) of this debate I'd advise reading the piece in the most recent Private Eye by 'MD'...
I have learnt two things from reading the last few pages. 1. Wearing a Fez in Turkey has fascinating political meaning of which i was completely unaware. 2. There is really no point in opening the thread in the hope of actual transfer news.
I can't say if that video is fake, or manipulated.
But a very quick bit of research, using sources I have no reason to doubt, indicates that Robinson has been heavily supported over time by the US based Middle East Forum. And you'd be hard pressed to argue that that particular organization is...
I really don't like boxing. But still...C'mon Cindy! So many different 'in your face's' to be had here. I heard that is that she is being fully supported by the GB boxing team, including having the GB coaches in her corner? Which is nice if true.
I'm also out at this point. But just wanted to clarify that I am absolutely not ignoring her (natural) advantage. As I say in another post above, I am conflicted on what constitutes 'fairness'. If pushed, I wouldn't be able to take a position on whether or not Castor Semanya should be competing...
