Interesting Q&A from The Athletic with Müller, ill post a couple parts. Theres lots more there they touch on but Im not sure about posting the entire transcript etc.

Yep, i always give a reach around it's just good manners!

I quite enjoy wums on a Forum when it's done right but this one really lacks nuance and cleverness.

United may be mid table but you’ll be in league one this time next season

There's a difference between staying informed and panicking/being overdramatic though. I mean you definitely get your fair share of those who buy a shitload of masks and storm supermarkets for supplies every time someone sneezes in China. The media with their clickbait headlines surely aren't helping either. But dismissing or ignoring it is the other extreme and also one of the reasons why this has spread by far more than it should have.

No, not at all. It's just everyone seems to go crazy here. It's a bit scary, of course. But I think a lot of people are being a tiny bit overdramatic too. A tiny bit at least.

@DeadLinesman

Well the makers of Corona beer already reported a loss of $170 Million in the last 2 months so there you go...

Law not applicable to them, because Myanmar was not part of pre partition India. Hence not bounded by Nehru Liaquat pact. Same goes for Christians or Hindus from Myanmar. I have stated above. But Rohingyas can apply for citizenship. Nothing to stop them from doing that. Just like persecuted Tamil Hindus from Sri Lanka applying for citizenship and usually settling in South of India (Sri Lanka wasn't part of Prepartioned India). Or the thousands of Tibetans that come here regularly and settle in North East. Or the large Muslim Afghan population that come to Northern states. The law remains the same. Anyone can apply for citizenship. Nobody has stopped that. CAA only quickens the process for those refugees fleeing religious persecution from countries that were once part of India.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-sex-demographics/ @nudge found this site, looks fairly informative. What do you reckon?

Yes, they have had it difficult for centuries now, but especially in the last 100 years or so.

That's a nice response and I genuinely appreciate that. I do take critical view of my government. I think their economic policies are rubbish and they have made several other blunders. Honestly, I don't care about them, but I do take strong offence when my community is solely blamed or crimes against my community are ignored. Maybe it's different here where we still feel strongly about communities or our country, unlike in West where you guys are detached from those things. Anyways, nice to close on a polite note. @Dr. Gonzo The issue was not about government inaction. I do believe there was government inaction not just this week, but since December, because all political sides thought they would profit from it electorally in the recently concluded Delhi state elections. The point was deeming it a one side violence. Or even Godhra and Gujrat riots. And again about the laws. They are not anti-Muslim laws. It doesn't stop Muslims refugees from seeking Indian citizenship and neither does it take away citizenship from existing citizens. I have adequately explained it above. I urge you to read that. EDIT: Just skimmed through that Newyorker piece. Found errors right at the start. CAA doesn't stop Muslim refugees from applying for citizenship. I have explained above. Assam's NRC (which is completely different to India's NRC, which hasn't even been drafted yet) was started from the seventies and overseen by the courts. Modi's government was against detention centres for people who were deemed illegal in Assam's NRC, but the Guwahati court insisted on the detention centres. Shoddy journalism is the issue here.

They want to bait him into saying that we're gonna win the league now and will be easy going, because Bayern are a one man team or some nonsense like that, just so they can call him a clueless, arrogant choker and a fraud after we failed to win the title.

I have said many inexcusable and silly things but that is not one I regret. The racism on the German national team thread was rife at the time and was widely ignore by our moderators. Until cannabis left racism was widely let go on here tbh. Well I apologise if you felt I was asking for violence but I sincerely was not. Football and politics are interlinked IMO but anyway that’s a different debate. We clearly come from different walks of life but I would encourage you take a more critical view of your own government from time to times.

Wonder who they voted for

I know... scandalous isn't it! It should be League Two at least.

They have a live update page on YouTube And this one shows how quickly it has spread in comparison with other ones...

And I’m always a willing participant.

Apologies to those who care not, but I only get chance to do this every four years! Happy birthday to our ex-captain, international and great schoolkid - Benny Howedes, who was born on Feb 29th and pretends to have a b'day every year. This time it's for real and have a great 8th birthday although we still regard it as 32!

You get 72 in the afterlife though don't you ?

Stop lying

Id love a season in league one tbf, all them old stadiums and different teams to play ..when we win the CL this year we will have nothing left to win anyway

"AUSWÄRTSSIEG" And it was a youth match between Salzburg and Klagenfurt, and Frankfurt's fans supported Klagenfurt. Imagine how incredible it must have felt for these boys.

Pope Francis has cancelled Rome mass because he is ill! The cancellation comes a day after the Pope was seen touching masked members of a crowd at St Peter's Square on Ash Wednesday! It looks like the Pontiff might need some divine intervention to get through this one. https://news.sky.com/story/pope-francis-cancels-rome-mass-due-to-illness-vatican-says-11944729

You should be proud of the chance to do something like this and use it as experience to keep on trying. I can't imagine it is an easy industry to break into but the fact you put youtself out there on the stage to be judge is very admirable. Next time, you can then judge Academia Cantolao and see maybe they weren't even that professional at all.

I've been drinking and I saw fuckall, though I do suppose having a sip is a bit like habing Alzheimer's

I will die a virgin

City - Liverpool a rivalry? Dont make me laugh! Oil money V's a proper club is no rivalry. I hate United but they are massive compared to you lot.

Midnight's update for international cases outside of mainland China in the last 24 hours (00:00 to 24:00 CET Feb 27): 960 new cases and 14 deaths: South Korea - 505 new cases and 1 death; Italy - 202 new cases and 5 deaths; Iran - 106 new cases and 7 deaths; Japan - 35 new cases and 1 death; Germany - 22 new cases; France - 20 new cases; Kuwait - 17 new cases; Spain - 10 new cases; Switzerland - 7 new cases; UAE - 6 new cases; Sweden - 5 new cases; Hong Kong, Singapore, UK, Norway - 3 new cases each; Oman, Iraq, Greece - 2 new cases each; Lebanon, Israel, Austria, Denmark, Estonia, Netherlands, San Marino - 1 new case each. Four countries reported their first ever cases today (Denmark, Estonia, Netherlands, San Marino). Current total: 4276 cases and 70 deaths in 52 countries.

Liverpool are owned by the baby Jesus.

They’re closer to you on the table than you are to us. 16 points v 22.

All little posh kids on their skiing holidays bringing this to the UK, tories to blame for everything.

So the scouting gig is done for now. I'd like to thank this club for the experience and the effort put to try and include me as much as they could. Perhaps I tried to drift on a motorcycle too soon though. I took this decision as I felt the whole thing was poorly planned from everyone, and if they want me in Peru I don't really have a chance as I have to remain in Canada for the time being. I can reveal the club now. I was at Academia Cantolao in Peru's top flight.

More of a Wijnaldum myself. Goes under the radar for really nailing the basics, but pulls something special out the bag once in a while.

Not anyone we know but definitely on the wind up. Worse than @Happy Blue
