  1. Clyne's been permission to leave the USA tour to go back home, citing "family reasons"
  2. How does it have nothing to do with your point? You said he didn't say there would take half a century of suffering for the benefits of Brexit to be felt by the UK, but he did say that it would take 50 years for us to see the benefits of Brexit to be felt. The implication there is he's not going to resign should Brexit go poorly (which is what he was asked before making that statement) and his refusal and this 50 years comment indicate that he expects that Brexit will cause economic hardship for a lot of people in Britain. Sure that doesn't necessarily mean that there will be 50 years of suffering. But 50 years of a stagnant and bleak economic situation does mean that a lot of people will suffer. And you don't even have to look that far back in history to see how certain areas were effected, hence the Thatcher comment. If you want to disregard points you don't agree with as just screaming, that's your prerogative. But me disagreeing with Mogg wanting to shirk any sort of accountability, based off the words he said and how bleak economic conditions hurt communities big time in the UK in recent history (not even 50 years ago...) because he thinks that maybe there will be some good that comes from it in half a century isn't screaming. That's a long period of time for a lot of people to have to deal with a struggling economy. But if you think that's screaming, I can't change your mind and you're free to keep believing what you want to believe.
  3. He looks pretty good considering what he’s been through. I despised him growing up... but only because he was a rival. I’d say he’s our greatest rival. But I am very happy to here he’s doing better. He’s a true legend of the sport.
  4. You’re right, forgive me. It will be all fucking rosey those 50 years with us not seeing the economic benefit! Especially in the fucking north, Thatcher was great for us, yeah?
  5. I think they're going to kick the can down the road because they've spent the last 2 odd years where they were supposed to be negotiating our exit with the EU not actually resolving any of the major issues that Brexit posed.
  6. You mean to tell me that good teams can play good football as well? Rubbish.
  7. I, for one, can't wait to be killed by my SexBot6000
  8. He's a very very smart player, you'll like him a lot I'm sure. He's like Pirlo or Alonso in that he'll be a metronome for your side and 9/10 times will be the player on the pitch that dictates the tempo of the match. I think he was the most important player in Sarri's very good Napoli side. If Sarri is successful in making Chelsea a primarily attacking side that plays competitive positive football, he'll be a big part of that.
  9. It absolutely should, because the Middle East is extremely fucking racist. But the Middle East seems a bit behind the times in a lot of regards, so it just goes on top of the pile of the list of things that aren't that great about the Middle East.
  10. Yeah... I'm gutted you lot have him. I made no secret he was the player I wanted us to sign this summer more than anyone else (not going to complain with who we did end up signing though, pretty solid window for us on paper - spending big to strengthen the areas of the pitch we needed strengthening the most). But Jorginho is fucking class. I think he holds the top 10 Serie A successful pass per match record - there was a while where he had all buy 1 of the top 10 records (Pirlo held it) and he knocked him out this passed season. The lad is fucking class, it's a good signing for you.
  11. Some of the shite Mourinho's said about Shaw is pretty funny. Not great man management, and before Shaw went to United I thought he'd be ace... so I'm a bit surprised at how things have panned out for him. I've heard Mourinho's blasted him for being fat... but I couldn't find any links to back that up, so I doubt that's true. There was some match, I forget who they were playing, but Shaw looked pretty average having not played in a very long time and he was hauled off at halftime and I have no idea why. He wasn't by far the worst player on the pitch or anything.
  12. I’d rather through Sturridge on than Ings. But the question remains his durability rather than his quality, unfortunately.
  13. The amount of shit he's getting on social media is fucking crazy. People are fucking stupid. And if he's going to make stupid errors, wouldn't we want them made in meaningless pre-season matches rather than in matches where shit happens? He's still young and clearly out of confidence, of course he's going to make fucking mistakes. I feel really bad for him.
  14. Friendlies are about getting players match fit, rather than being all focused on the result. There was a time where nobody ever gave a fuck about friendlies, a simpler time. Now they're all televised and taken on tour for the foreign fans and I think it's weird and doesn't do any good for the clubs or the players.
  15. I'm not sure taking to social media is going to stop the abuse for him, people will now see they can get a reaction... so if anything it'll probably invite more abuse. I feel for the lad, but he's under the microscope now and I think social media is just going to increase the further scrutiny. I think he needs to be out of the spotlight tbh. I don't know whether that's just keeping him on the bench, letting him go somewhere on loan for a year, or outright selling him. I think at this point though, any mistake he ever makes is going to just have all of this shite piling on top of him and he's completely out of confidence.
  16. You were the one all pissed off at my Everton aren’t they? Right? Literally a meaningless throwaway comment because I thought (like literally everyone) you’re paying too much. Instead of getting hypersensitive about me having some lulz @ Everton (I ama LFC fan after all) couldn’t you just have said “fuck it we’be gotten Silva’s man, let the good times fucking roll.” Instead now that thread is awkward. Granted, now I’ve brought it to here. But it’s just some shite, it doesn’t matter but I hope ya bluesshite bastards know I fuckin love ya @Cannabis& @RandoEFC
  17. Well that and United are a bunch of massive fannies.
  18. Probably the same kind of attitude you shoulda adopted in that Richarlison thread instead of getting touchy as fuck, mate.
  19. Jacob Rees-Mogg, the soulless twat, has just come out saying he won’t resign if Brexit ends up going poorly. Then goes on to say that Brexit is an investment over 50 years in the making. So essentially telling British teenagers they might have to live their lives with a totally bleak economic situation until there’s a retirement age for them to see any benefit. The joke will truly be on them though because there probably won’t be a retirement age at that point.
  20. For the record, even though I didn't like how they stripped down a lot of the RPG element to Fallout 4... I still loved Fallout 4, it's a great game. Especially on survivor mode, but that's a different story all together really. But my problems with Fallout 4's Nuka World are this: 1.) I didn't like the story. In the base game there were a lot of people complaining about the removal of karma and how you couldn't really play as an evil character because ultimately you'd just be roll playing as a bad guy who ends up doing the same quests as anyone else playing the game. It's a fair criticism. With Far Harbor, I actually felt like they returned to their old ways of having meaningful choices behind your characters choices. In Nuka World, though, you feel forced into being "evil" - that's how I felt, at least. Even the "good" plot line doesn't have you out as some good guy. 2.) Minutemen plot expanded - the Minutemen are the worst part of FO4 imo. Boring storyline, boring quests, etc. This is more of that. 3.) Not enough new guns, and I liked the AK... but then there's the problem of ammo scarcity. The ammo is VERY scarce for it. 4.) The theme park idea is great, it's a good setting. But it just doesn't feel... alive and the map feels pretty empty. Which makes sense considering it's a wasteland... but even in the barren wastes of the Mojave, I never feel like it's totally dead. And as you know... patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
  21. I was pretty disappointed with Nuka World tbh. Far Harbor was great, but the DLC for Fallout 4 was crap. Meanwhile New Vegas has great DLC campaigns - it really is the best Fallout game.
  22. Shame Roman won't buy him better banter.
