    TigerTedd got a reaction from Will the Ram in Championship 23/24   
    Let’s face it, if Leeds go up, I don’t really care whether they finish higher or lower than Forest, as long as they both finish in the bottom 3. Anything less than that outcome is a disappointing season.

    I get really bitter about the play offs. Even though we’ve got promoted, I don’t like anyone else being happy. I think I’m bitter cos we’ve lost so many play off finals.
    and I can’t really feel truly happy about our promotion, I think it’s just the universe correcting itself to the natural order. I’d still only get really excited if we got promoted to the premier league. So I can’t be happy for others who are achieving that before us.

    I honestly believe he’s one of those who breathe the club with every breath. He will be cover almost certainly, but his legs haven’t gone, he could stand in, in 3 different positions and give a good account of himself.

    I am going to sit and watch the playoff final, smugly contented in the knowledge that I don’t have to go through what the fans at Wembley will go through.🙂

    I don’t like the term antisemitism being used so much in this context. Antisemitism is not like Jews because they’re Jews. It’s racist. But what was going on there, and what is going on all over the place is not like Israelis because they’re Israeli, there’s a difference.
    i suspect most people booing her don’t have a problem with Jews, but they do have a problem with what Isreal are doing.
    just like Russia has been banned because countries threatened to boycott if they were let in, until they stop their invasion of Ukraine. That’s not anti-orthodox Christian or anything, that’s just anti-Russian. There’s a difference.

    TigerTedd got a reaction from SKRam in Hull set to appoint Tim Walter as their new coach   
    So you’re saying the te tic is to pick some random crap manager and hope they just haven’t found the right club yet, and hope that your club is the right club and they’ll suddenly be amazing.
    that sounds like chucking a dart at a list of names. There doesn’t seem to be any particular method in that.
    it sounds like a bit of a Watford tactic. Then sack them when it doesn’t work after 6 months, and try again.

    TigerTedd reacted to Ram-Alf in Premier League clubs to vote on scrapping VAR   
    It gives the official a get out of jail free card, Wrong call...VAR takes over, The Stockley Park operator is with his mate and they don't get the abuse the official would.
    Ref says VAR taken over and I've been "over ruled" very rarely do refs overturn VAR, The standard of officials has got worse since VAR came to the fore...imo.
    Goaline Tech I'm for...everything else...leave it to the man/woman in the middle 👍
    Last night Man Utd Vs Newcastle Anthony Gordon has his heel scraped in the penalty area...no pen and no VAR, Sky showed a close up of his sock...a gaping hole and stud marks on his Achilles...these incidents have been given by VAR but with it being Old Trafford...they bottled it 🙄

    I don’t know if we’d be where they are, but they would be where we are. They were all or nothing at the end of their parachute payments and massively over spending. That’s why they had such a good squad. They would’ve been stripped for parts after that season and plummeted. They should build a statue of lampard.

    TigerTedd reacted to Carl Sagan in Eurovision 2024   
    Last year the programme was live from the UK with a raft of UK presenters so of course the ratings were way higher. The year before we had our only decent entry for a decade and a good chance of winning (and would have without a Europe wide Ukraine sympathy vote).
    This year the viewing figures reverted to their normal level. And were high given the paucity of good songs. In 2021 it was 7.4m, this year it was 7.6m. No contest in 2020, but 6.9m in 2019.

    Totally understand, not your words, I meant to clarify that. Just annoys me that the term is being used all the time for all these anti Isreal protests. One should be allowed to not like Isreal the state, the country, the policies, the regime, without being accused of not liking Jews. Like not liking Saudi Arabian or Iranian policies is not anti-Islamic. Not liking American policies is not anti-Christian. Etc.

    In Iceland we choose the song to represent us through a local song competition, so Eurovision is a long running process.  This year loud voices called for us to withdraw from the competition altogether, some of the planned performers even said publicly that they wouldn't go to Malmö if their song was chosen.
    One of the performers is a Palestinian immigrant and his song appeared to have a commanding lead in popularity and then indeed won the competition, but wait, according to our state broadcaster RUV some mistake had apparently taken place and a recount was needed, the conclusion being he didn't win.  Dubious that.
    Die hard Eurovision local celebrities withdrew any support this year, the traditional announcer pulled out, even the writer of the "winning" song refused to follow the song to Sweden.  All this because Israel was not removed from this year's competition.
    I don't support this reaction.
    I understand the people's anger over the horrific brutality of Israeli forces in Gaza, I share their feelings, yet I cannot in good conscience condone any type of cancel culture, to punish and exclude musicians, sportsmen and women, anyone representing their country, on the grounds of what their government is doing, to me that is simply wrong.  I don't believe in discriminating against people based on their origin, religion, sex or their personal opinions on various matters, even if I find those views appalling.

    Ignorance mostly drives intolerance, not tolerance. People who are completely ignorant about  Islam are often the most Islamophobic, and people who are ignorant about the religious practices of Jews are often the most antisemitic. In both instances, they often conflate separate issues such as race with religion, for example. Israel/Judaism/Jews, Hamas/Palestinians/Islam, it's easy to fall into the trap of thinking that those forward slashes might as well be = signs unless a person actually educates themselves.

    Perhaps people thought that large numbers of people venting their anger with the actions of a bunch of middle aged Israeli politicians on a 20 year old girl from tel aviv might be a tad unfair and supported the underdog?
