Archied

Surely gonna cost more to hire someone to do the peddling while you sit in the back🤷🏻‍♂️

The wife has a seven seater as she needs it for childminding , I have my own because hers smells of poo nappies , is full of crumbs and it’s a dot on the cards that if your dressed nice going out somewhere your going to emerge from it with a toffee stuck to the arse of your best suit 😂

Have just bought a brand new one , it’s something I had never done before though I’ve bought brand new vans before and after about a month they look like crappy old working vans ,
at 62 this will be the last nice car I buy and wanted the experience of having one from new and looking after it but I am a car lover , the wife just doesn’t care about cars , hers now looks like a discarded crisp packet 😂

Someone complaining about whataboutism with an argument purely based in whataboutery
And I'm antagonistic? 
Just adding "context" again eh. 
This is the thing. I've seen the videos from October 7th. Like I've actually seen them. Has anyone else out of interest? Would you like to know the gory details? Would you like me to post some stuff on here that I guarantee you'll watch once and your mind will revisit it for days, weeks and occasionally for years. 
Feck Hamas. Nobody is comparing evil to evil. Well, you are actually in this article. Ironically. Feck Hamas. Feck Hamas. Feck Hamas. 
Likewise who wants to see some videos from West Bank. You've seen the mass graves in Gaza? The dead babies? The Palestinians released from prisons, some without charge, who have been tortured? Now do you want to see some videos and pics of Settler violence? Do you want to see what happens in Jenin? Does anybody here need proof of IDF barbarity? 
No. It servers zero purpose except to join in with The Guardian nonsense and continue the tit for tat escalation that apparently is mostly down to me. 
So, let's accept Hamas are evil. I'm cool with that. Now, can we hold IDF to the same standards? Are they terrorists? If not then why not?
Then can we examine quotes by the likes of Netenyahu and Smotrich and all the other thugs? Tell me if these words carry more threat and are more antagonistic than anything some knob head has ever said on a football forum. 
And the reason I ask you to examine this is because next I'd ask again what are Israel really trying to achieve? Wipe out Hamas? Consider this approach when used in other cases. Consider that Hamas is an ideology. Consider that Hamas isn't the only organisation that threatens Israel. Consider what happens to the millions of effected Palestinians who have no security and lose their homes and loved ones
So, with that considered. Are Israel justified by their actions in Gaza and West Bank? Both? Neither? 
It often feels like this thread must have a lot of hidden posts where people are defending Hamas. Because I know I could sit here all day condemning Hamas. But if anybody actually does want peace then you have to understand them. Know why they exist. Know how to take power and influence away from them. 
Or just keep killing those who we don't agree with and give them nothing. Manifest Destiny innit

We seem to have suddenly gone from "the Academy has been cleared out, it'll take years of rebuilding before we see any talent coming through" to "why aren't we playing 16 year olds in the first team" within the space of 4 months? Do you think, perhaps, that some fans are getting a little carried away?

If we still had a Rosenoir they’d be a pathway for these kids…

For me the reality is if a club with the size, history and resources of Man United come calling it’s going to be hard for the club to do anything to keep him. Even if he was playing week in week out for Warne in league one, can anyone honestly say they think young Cruz would turn down that move?
Interestingly there was an interview with him during half time on ramstv yesterday and he mentioned how he’d joined the academy at 10 and come through the age groups with his best mates, dropping in the name of at least one of those that is now at United following the administration fleecing. 

IF there is some truth to this the shame and blame of it isn’t in Warne’s approach to the academy, it’s that the big clubs in the premier league get to pretty much do what they want to sign up the best talent and those lower down the pyramid have to like it or lump it along with a tiny fraction of the player’s potential worth. The whole thing needs reworking to protect the talent or at the very least the clubs further down the hierarchy. 

EDIT - I do think if this is true Warne should be told by Pearce/Clowes to get the lad in a league squad and on the pitch for a few mins to add to the value, think Rooney did that with Kaide Gordon, right? 

Indeed, especially when we have a manager who appears to be very reluctant to use young players!

Yet another promising prospect we will lose for f*** all because the big boys have come calling. Can’t blame the lad for wanting to move on from here, but it really is quite depressing. Almost makes you think what’s the point in having an academy?

If he has to go then we need a decent prospect loaned back at no fee, on top of the compo. So sick of the big clubs just siphoning off all the young talent for beans, then sticking them in cold storage for 3 or 4 years before flogging them off at profit, having never let them play at senior level.
This independent review needs to sort this sooner rather than later as it's a crooked game right now. That said, if the lad wants away, there's really not a lot we can do, but it makes me sad to see these players leave without ever even getting near to the men's team.

Well if they want him it will cost them £13 million at least

Comparing tables is really superficial considering after 18 games a team is on average 4 points better/worse off where they deserve to be and upwards of 10 max.
A more accurate assessment would be:
2022
Lucky: Oxford (2) Barnsley (2) MK Dons (2)
Unlucky: Charlton (1) Fleetwood (2) Lincoln (1) Port Vale (1) Exeter (2) Morecambe (2) Portsmouth (2)
Deserved points: +5 (34)
Chances net (red card-adjusted): +1.8 pg
Chances/goals scored ratio 4, conceded 3.8
2023
Lucky: Fleetwood (2) Peterborough (2) Portsmouth (1) Blackpool (2) Bristol (2)
Unlucky: Wigan (1) Oxford (1) Cambridge (2) Cheltenham (2)
Deserved points: -3 (30)
Chances net: +1.72 pg
Chances/goals scored ratio 3.2, conceded 4.4
Marginally worse and considerably luckier this year.

We're all different.
For me, there is plenty of doom and gloom in the real world without spending my downtime absorbing unnecessary negativity over a style of football.
Not saying everyone should be like me, I'm not the online football fan blueprint to follow, just doing what works well in my life.

I kind of get that warne may feel a bit defensive and respond a little to some over the top stuff , the bloke has been with us for 5 minutes , has 3 promotions under his belt and is realistically only a successful if he gets us up , he’s having to put up with slagging off on all kinds of levels from being a fraud and nothing more than a PE teacher , having his personality ripped to shreds when it’s clear he tries to be a decent bloke , having fans scream that his football is shxt and he needs to duck off out our club , see fans screaming at players connor ect ect ect 🤷‍♂️,
 So for me good on him to stand his ground , results are all that matter when you boil it all down , I want him to work his backside off to get them and get us up and I don’t want him to be a doormat who swallow s crap and doffs his cap
