PistoldPete got a reaction from Magicman in Palestine
Well even here there is for me evidence of bias. People have talked about Israel's "indiscriminate " killing of civilians. That is nonsense. The harsh reality of war is that civilians always end up as casualties. But they are not targeted (as Hamas did with their attacks). You cannot compare it as being a like for like, as if one was as bad as the other.

@PistoldPete I apologise if I was a bit rude in my "cry Holocaust" comment. I didn't mean it how it came across. Its the most brutal episode of human history and I know how Jews have been treated through history around the world. I do know they need to defend themselves in the Middle East.

There are people who quite genuinely deny that the Holocaust happened. And people with similar agenda who deny the Hamas terrorist attacks happened (including at least one on this forum for example). There are some who refuse to accept that anti semitism is racism (Whoopi Goldberg for one). The very idea that Israelis could possibly be the victims seems anathema to some.
People who criticise Israel generally criticise no other country apart from Israel. Why is that?
So no I do not accept that people who do nothing but criticise Israel are not biased and prejudiced in their views and that, especially given the root cause of that bias is anti semitism in my view.

You can look at the photographs( in the Daily Telegraph for example) if you want to. I don’t want to.
it amazes me how people deny such things and it troubles me what motivation people have for such stubborn denial.

Even with Rowettball which I hated watching you could at least see a game plan. Let the opposition come at you then get Tom Huddleston launch a quarterback ball forward for Vydra to run onto on the break. Hey presto, we won a lot of games until Vydra got injured.
our game plan under Warne is get it out wide let someone launch the ball skyward and hope someone gets on the end of it.

We are failing because we are not in the top 2. We were bookies favourites in the summer so Warne is failing if he doesn’t get automatic promotion. I mean I would settle for going up via the playoffs but we really should be doing better.

Fans at games should get behind the team. But we are allowed to have an opinion and mine is that Warne should not be the Derby manager.

It's not as if we had anyone else who could have played in the No 10 role. Sonny Bradley might have perhaps and could maybe have scored from a corner.

I haven't heard his Radio Derby interview. But even with his The Rams TV interviews, where as you would expect the questions are a lot softer, his answers worry me. Happy with the performance but not with the result? He seems completely disconnected from the fans.. almost all of whom are not happy either with performances or results.

It's actually 15 career goals and 6 assists in the equivalent to 75 90s.
When you ignore the games played at LB, LM, RM or even CF, those stats are roughly 12 goals and 4 assists in 41 90s.

I think you are mixing up your vices there. But maybe you are right knowing Warne he would be trying to score in a brewery and arrange a P1ss up in a brothel.
