  1. The use of shadow in that painting is absolutely amazing. I remember seeing it a while ago and thinking how real it looked.

  2. Week 32 Results Man City Women 3-1 Man Utd Women Republic of Ireland 0-0 Belgium Stockport 5-0 MK Dons England 0-1 Brazil France 0-2 Germany Charlotte FC 2-0 Columbus Crew Costa Rica 3-1 Honduras Everton Women 0-0 Liverpool Women San Marino 0-0 St Kitts & Nevis Italy 2-0 Ecuador Round-up Mixture of internationals and domestic fixtures sprung up some interesting results. And with that said, lots of praise for @Rucksackfranzose for getting 18 points which propels him up into the chasing pack, and into 5th place. And not only that, he was also the only one to predict the goalless draw in the Women's Merseyside derby. Next best were myself and @Tommy with 13 points. The latter capitalising on Nawoo not predicting and closing the gap to 2 points. @Viva la FCB closed the gap on @CaaC (John) to just 3 points.

  3. Wokeism is a black American cultural movement and ideal that requires its people to be aware of the implicit biases of the American system against them, it has nothing to do with China. So you just skimmed over the parts where I criticised China, I also don’t recall praising China. In fact I’ve had at lengthly and quite productive discussions with Gonzo about human rights abuses in China, but you wouldn’t know that, would you. I know you didn’t read the article too, I could have posted a joke link and you wouldn’t notice. And yes Salman is the king. Read that I didn’t say ‘bin Salman’, I said ‘Salman’ who is the father and of bin Salman (the prime minister) and absolute monarch of Saudi Arabia, which is not basically the same as the CCP, which is ironic that you’d accuse me of liking one and not the other when it’s very obvious I’m critical of both, but you are in fact the person that’s critical of one while sucking the dick of the other. Words the orangekrush doesn’t understand but uses libertarian communism socialism fascism dictator authoritarian woke anarcho democracy monarchy @Dr. Gonzo @Rucksackfranzose feel free to add more to the list, we can keep a running tally

  7. At the bolded part: You're neither an Israeli nor living in Israel, so nobody asks you to do anything like this you mentioned.Know you're Jewish, yet while there are Jews like you, who aren't Israeli exist, there are also Muslim and Christian Israelis. Stop that equating the state of Israel with the Jewish community, it's outright wrong.

  8. I don't care what they've done to be honest mate. Every day now is PSR, PSR, PSR. Almost daily reminders that this is the new football. Accountants, lawyers, yawn, yawn, yawn. I think the Premier League have shown beyond all doubt this season that they're in no position whatsoever to be pretending they can implement these financial rules. I can see where this is going now. Nobody likes VAR but it gives everyone something to talk about and, most importantly of all, it gets clicks. The more VAR drama, the better, because it gets people on social media shouting about "the worst decision they've ever seen" and more people are talking about the Premier League. It's going to be the same with PSR. Let's find another way we can introduce financial charges to a club so everyone can keep talking about points deductions and appeals and how stupid the rules are because the only thing worse than people slating the Premier League is people not talking about the Premier League at all. I'm sure Leicester have a case to answer just like Everton and Forest did but you can see how the coverage has changed since Everton initially got the 10 point deduction. Things that would have been dealt with behind closed doors are now a spectacle that has to be played out in public over the course of several months, several meetings, and rounded off with a few journalists leaking the result before it's published accompanied by a bunch of emojis. I'm convinced it's all deliberate. All this "Forest are expecting a decision on Monday or Tuesday at the latest and maybe Sunday" is deliberately designed to get people spending three days refreshing their social media pages and searching for information. It's telling now that the national journalists have increasingly started tweeting out minor updates that would have been a footnote in an obscure article in the past. It's all about the buzz. Football is so fucked, man. If the Premier League want to be viewed as a credible enforcer of these rules then they'll start making a dent in Man City's 115 charges instead of going after a team that's already been relegated from their league. Low-hanging fruit. Of course 115 charges are more complicated but that's all the more reason to get started ffs.

  12. Week 30 Results Lorient 0-2 Lyon Bologna 0-1 Inter Milan Brighton Women 0-4 Man Utd Women Toronto 1-0 Charlotte FC Independiente 1-1 River Plate Macarthur 0-3 Central Coast Bristol City 1-0 Swansea Alaves 1-0 Rayo Vallecano Celtic 4-2 Livingston Young Boys 5-1 Basel Round-up A mixture of results as 4 games only had 1 goal in them, while 3 other games had 4+ goals. This didn't stop @nawoo from outscoring everyone else with a high score of 19 points, and that took him up 1 place to 4th. Next best was @Pyfish who scored 18 points, and was the only one to get more than 1 perfect score. @Rucksackfranzose stays just ahead of @Tommy by one point.

  16. So you've come back after licking your wounds, eh? Well Mr. Libertarian-Nonce, how about you do some explaining. Please enlighten me on a few little caveats you don't seem to address but dance around the boot you lick. So socialism only applies to those well connected, well I seem to be able to use the roads pretty easily, whose cronyism am I appealing to? i seem to be able to use my universal healthcare in Australia very easily, I don't know anyone in medicine. I can call the police, the fire brigade, and an ambulance just fine, I can apply for unemployment, the PBS, maternity and paternity leave, pension, superannuation, childcare support, wow the list goes on... yet I don't know anyone and these services are provided to me as social programs, weird right!? So who is this magical person I know that gets me these connections? Okay that's question one finished, maybe you can now define fascism and how the policies of AfD differ from fascism, they seem to really love the hallmarks of fascism; anti-immigration, historical revisionism, prefacing an in-group and an out-group to blame the 'struggles of the nation on', nationalism, xenophobia, religious prejudice, racism, the 'decline of morals and ethics in society', homophobia, literally using key words that the Nazi party used, you have no idea what you are talking about yet again. Lastly, can you quote me on where I was twerking for Xi? I seem to recall being very critical of Xi, China, and you're inability to use words correctly, and now I'm going to be critical of your reading comprehension because no matter how much you staring the face of facts laid bare before you, I can continue to read the diarrhoea sprayed from your fingertips onto my computer screen.

  17. Goals and winners aplenty for the latest two! Game 107 had an early goal in the 8th minute: 2 points 3 points! 1 point 3 points! 3 points! While Game 108's first of six goals was even earlier, in the 5th minute: 1 point Plus @Bluebird Hewitt adding to his tally again with his 3rd-minute pick. Table after Game 108: Lots of change after a flurry of winners, with @Bluewolf now heading up into 2nd on 19 points, and @Lucas going up to 3rd, joining two others on 17 points. @Bluebird Hewitt up to 7th, whilst @Rucksackfranzose and @Redcanuck also improve their placings, the latter getting his first exact score.

  28. A monumental week for @Rajabhat Rovers to extend his lead at the top with only 10 game-weeks remaining, although some of those are likely to have extra fixtures. A score of 25 means the lead over @Redcanuck and @6666 is 17 points. Those two overtook @Dan, who picked the wrong week to make a single-digit score of 7. @Bluewolf's score of 18 was very respectable, and that took him above @nawoo.

  31. I’ve made it plenty of times, especially since I was named an honourary Mexicano this one time at party when I impressed everyone with my tequila antics. It’s not sweet dairy chocolate, it’s dark cooking chocolate. It’s bitter and cocoa flavour, not sweat Cadbury. I also get pechuga en mole often when I visit the taqueria. Pinche gringos.

  36. Predictions - Saudi Arabia Grand Prix Should have got this done earlier in the week. Qualifying on Friday and race on Saturday again this weekend! Please note the changes to the Podium predictions (top three without Verstappen) and fill in the new match-ups which will replace the largely predictable team-mate match-ups in our season predictions! All other predictions remain as they were. @RandoEFC @Stan @MUFC @Tommy @nudge @Whiskey @The Palace Fan @Coma @DeadLinesman @OrangeKhrush Pole Position - Which driver will post the fastest lap in Q3? [INSERT DRIVER] Podium - Which drivers will finish the Grand Prix in the top three positions AFTER MAX VERSTAPPEN IS REMOVED FROM THE RESULTS? 1. [INSERT DRIVER] 2. [INSERT DRIVER] 3. [INSERT DRIVER] Random Driver - Predict the finishing position of this week's random driver, Charles Leclerc. [INSERT POSITION] Bonus Question - Which team will have the highest finishing position out of Williams, VCARB, Haas, Sauber and Alpine? [INSERT DRIVER] Extra Season Prediction - A more interesting set of match-up predictions to replace the team-mate battles where so many people have predicted almost the same combination. This is a question of who will finish higher in the Championship and not linked to the Saudi race specifically! Which driver will finish higher in the Drivers' standings of each of these combinations? Verstappen vs Perez Hamilton vs Leclerc Norris vs Alonso Sainz vs Russell Piastri vs Stroll Gasly vs Ocon Albon vs Tsunoda Bottas vs Hulkenberg Ricciardo vs Zhou Magnussen vs Sargeant

  41. Results - Bahrain Grand Prix Here we go then for the first race of the season, and it's a familiar story to start off as everyone correctly predicted a pole-win combo for Max Verstappen. With this looking likely going forward, please see my earlier post about how we'll change the top three predictions to a "top three without Verstappen" to make the predictions a bit more interesting. Pole position will be left alone for now. Unfortunately for @Stan, @nudge, @Whiskey and @Coma, this was where the scoring stopped as various combinations of Leclerc, Russell and Norris let them down. @MUFC managed to secure some further points as the only person to predict a Red Bull 1-2, while @RandoEFC and @The Palace Fan also bagged an extra 2 points for predicting Perez on the podium, albeit in the wrong place. @DeadLinesman and @OrangeKhrush join @MUFC on 10 points for getting 2 of the top three exactly correct, both placing Carlos Sainz correctly in 3rd. @Tommy scores 7 in total for the podium having predicted Sainz in 2nd. Onto the final two predictions and all of the points were hogged by @Tommy. He was the only one to nail Lewis Hamilton's finishing position of 7th with the rest of the field going too optimistic for the Mercedes driver. A better performance than expected for Haas scuppered a lot of people's prediction for 20th on the grid, and Logan Sargeant teased his backers by qualifying off the back row. Only @Tommy believed in the reports that Alpine could, unthinkably, have the worst car, so he hoovers up another 5 points for predicting 20th in qualifying for Pierre Gasly. The table looks like this after the first round: @Tommy takes an impressive early lead, with his gap ahead of 2nd place larger than the gap between @MUFC in 2nd and the four players in joint last place. Unsurprisingly, Red Bull therefore set the early pace in the Constructors' standings, while Ferrari start the season propping up the table as the only team with both drivers amongst the 10-pointers this weekend.
