    therealhantsram reacted to Kernow in We can't finish lower than...   
    We're 12 points ahead of Oxford in 7th, same games played. Although mathematically possible of course, there's no realistic way they finish above us with only 10 games to play. Making up over a point a game on any side near the top of the table is a tough ask, especially when you don't play them again this season.
    Hopefully that gives us the confidence to throw everything at going for 2nd place. We don't really need to look over our shoulder, and it makes little difference whether we finish 3rd or 6th. Let's go for it.

    We need automatic, nothing less. As much as I Love London, our latest trips to Wembley have not been a bundle of fun, the  play offs are too much of a lottery for my liking

    First time I have seen him and surprise to see how big  he is, both tall and bulky for an 18 yo.
    You'd think from physique alone he would be the sort of player to interest Warne

    Undone by two individual errors tonight.
    Wildsmiths just plan stupid foul and a badly misplaced pass from Adams.
    Missing Collins up front.
    Onto the next one.

    OK its a small club in National League South, but for over a hundred years Torquay United has been a stalwart of the the English leagues and now it is in administration and the future looks very bleak.
    I'm a Devonian by birth and Torquay was my club, difficult to reach in the 50's/60's from where I lived and Dad had no car. I loved the games and my favourite memory was watching them play Spurs in an FA cup game in 65 that ended 3-3. I watched from halfway up the floodlight pylon. I was 14 years old then. A copper below me told me to get down, gave up, then said if I fell down it'd better not be on him!
    Torquay also pioneered Friday evening games due to so many fans being involved in hospitality and Saturday was change over day for tourists. For many years they had the lowest debt ratio of any professional team in England but a gentle slide down to non league ensued and now the current owner has walked.
    I feel for the 1700 regular fans (2nd best in that league!).

    I thought it was an improvement on last season’s display at Barnsley.
    But it’s another sure sign that when we get promoted this season, we must thank Warne and replace him.
    We will have no chance in the Championship with Warne in charge.

    Gabbiadinis second touch was usually a tackle, that’s why he looked like he worked hard.
    Kitson was a technically a better player but always came across as a miserable sod

    Stuff like this is why people don’t like Maguire.  Skim reading that tweet makes it sound like Quantuma have been charged with wire fraud, when in fact it’s a “company makes profit” non-story.  I’m sure it’s deliberately worded that way as click-bait.

    therealhantsram reacted to Bob The Badger in Ed Dawes   
    I'd say exactly the opposite; they couldn't work together. The sums of their parts rarely equalled the whole. It was rumoured or maybe true, that Gabbiadini and Kitson hated each other. None of them were ever consistent enough
    I thought the side under Arthur that went up was amazing. The speed that they could counter with Gee, Davison NC and GM was breathtaking.

    I think it's dangerous that you can have your citizenship given by birth taken away on the basis that you're eligible/hold other citizenship.

    therealhantsram reacted to Rampant in Shamima Begum loses appeal against removal of British citizenship   
    She is, or was, a British citizen so she's our problem. She should be brought back here and tried accordingly. If that means she spends years, decades or even life in jail here then so be it. What constitutes an appropriate sentence is for another debate.
    Could you imagine the outrage from the Daily Mail readers if foreign countries refused to accept responsibility for their citizens who commit crimes in Britain when we go to deport them after their jail sentence? 'Sorry guv, we've revoked Pablo's Italian citizenship, you deal with it.' 
    She was, and may well still be, a moron with a reprehensible moral compass, but given that she was born in England and lived here for the first 15 years of her life, the bottom line is she is a British moron. A homegrown moron if you prefer. A problem which we should deal with according to our laws.

    It's going to be hard to get rid of the current matchday set up at the moment with Gibbo back on as the presenter and Dom as the main commentator. Dom for me really does do a better job of describing the play in more detail and is far less dramatic and more factual when there's a contentious decision/moment in the game. Sometimes with Ed it felt too much that you were listening to a fan who's mic'd up than someone who was commentating. I'm just happy that the recent wave of BBC radio cuts this past year didn't result in the football service stopping or in some cases with other BBC local radio sport services sharing the commentary with the opposition.

    Musk and Trump both appeal to pathetic and weak men. Because they are so obviously pathetic and weak themselves.
    They think - if these fellow pathetic insecure people can become rich and powerful, then maybe one day I can too
    Except - becoming rich and powerful doesn't make anyone happy. It hasn't worked for them and it won't work for you either

    This is really desperate stuff. The right's version of Carol Vorderman could be, say Teresa May? Penny Mourdant? I'm struggling to think of many other reasonablish centre right women to be honest.
    Maybe we could even say Liz Truss, who probably beleives in opposite things to Vorderman in terms of taxation and economics?
    The left's version of KT Hopkins? I don't really think there is one. Perhaps there is some vile human who celebrates when a trans woman attacks another woman. Or who tries to incite illegal immigrants to murder the existing population?
    I love the plea against polarisation later though that I don't even think is ironic.

    With so many of the top teams playing each other there will be many ups and downs… as others have said , we just need to treat every game as a must-win…
