    X factor- Is it just me?

    Rapping isn't music. It is a form of simple, rather immature poetry in a manufactured type of street language. It has been cleverly marketed over the years as hip and fashionable and people are frightened to admit that they don't get it, whilst their peer group rave about it. This woman has no...

    US election (merged threads)

    You clearly have no clue what the ' Establishment ' means. It is a power brokerage. A cabal. Largely unseen but enormously powerful and influential. It attempts to ensure that the status quo is maintained. Farage is not a member of this exclusive club and rails against their motives and their...

    US election (merged threads)

    Farage is fiercely anti-establishment. He is well placed to see the corruption and deceit that goes on. He is unpopular because he goes public with it. The ruling elite hate having their feathers ruffled. Anyone who wants change is not the Establishment. The Establishment want the staus quo...

    US election (merged threads)

    Like them or not, a lot of people have sided with them. A mass of the populace seem to be so determined to shake up the old order, the ruling elite, that any change is acceptable, however risky it may seem. They are good communicators and both appear strong and charasmatic leaders and speak...

    I smell the festering wounds of Brexit here.

    US election (merged threads)

    What a lot of people have chosen to ignore, both here re Brexit and over the pond, now, is that the world is undergoing a change. For a very long time the ruling elite have got more powerful and less interested in the welfare of the people they represent. They have relied on the passivity of the...

    Because....believe it or not.....he is less corrupt than Clinton. She stinks to high heaven and the people didn't want her.

    Nayim (sidwell) from the halfway line

    Only room for one song about the ginger maestro and that was being freely aired at Ashton Gate.

    Forestieri

    Boro wanted McCormack but had to settle for Rhodes. They knew another 10-12 goals would see them over the line. Although very strong at the back, they weren't prolific scorers. Rhodes isn't PL class and they knew that. They felt It was worth the gamble, spending £10m to get £100m and knowing...

    Forestieri

    No. More forwards are not required. We have goals all over our team. We will rip a number of sides apart this season. I have it on very good authority that CH has earmarked two players that will continue and strengthen our push for promotion. Beram Kayal and Liam Rosenior. Nothing else is required.

    [Politics] Brexit

    The Establishment gave the populace an opportunity to voice their opinion. For the first time, in a very long time, this vote actually did count. Every vote was decisive, in or out. A fairly high number saw this as an opportunity to vote anti-Establishment, anti the political elite, anti vested...

    This is all going to go pear shaped isn't it?

    Gerry Ryan scored 32 goals in 173 appearances for BHA. Thats a strike rate equivalent to 8-9 in a full season. Knockaert already has 6 this season and is probably gonna get close to15. Ward's goal tally dropped off at second tier level and I'm not sure he ever got close to 20 goals. Murray has...

    The Sidwell Goal

    Correct. In ' Seagulls! The Story of Brighton and Hove Albion '.....it describes the goal as follows......' Bob McNicol picked up a clearance from keeper Adam Blacklaw well inside his own half and set off for the Burnley goal. From fully 35 yards, Bob unleashed a shot which flew past the...

    The Sidwell Goal

    Not necessarily so. In fact, I would argue that I had a better view than you. I was in the stand, to the south of the half-way line, almost level with the edge of the box. From my angle of seating, I was almost directly behind Casey when he hit the ball. I was able to follow every dip and...

    This is all going to go pear shaped isn't it?

    It is clear already, there are two standout teams in this division and we are one of them. Only an outrageous run of injuries will derail us and commonsense dictates that we will not suffer anything like the level of last season. Few teams in history have ever suffered like we did last time...

    Newcastle fan's open letter of apology..................

    There were many predicting that the Geordies would go through the whole season unbeaten and then when they lost their opening two games, there was doom and gloom everywhere. A flattering 4-1 win over Reading got them back on track and since then, they have been flying. There is more pressure on...

    So if Trump wins next Tuesday will all the liberal lefties bang on and on about a re-vote?

    Thats because people voted for a Common Market and thats not what they eventually got.
