  1. he is due a breakout, his potential ceiling is very high. He is currently in hot form for England U21s.
  2. the republic, Twitter trolls, certain media
  3. by the limited information I think it was a oxygen tank explosion. either by fire or by exposure to high pressure.
  4. it is so sad that people will turn this tragedy into a political issue. while the decision and gains were not smart, implying people deserve to die due to political reasons is disgusting
  5. it wasn't a Russian source. Much of the tactical failures were brought by the Washington post. the Ukrainian 47th is NATO trained, equipped and walked into a trap. one story on WaPo about a Ukrainian soldier who saw his entire platoon taken out by a Lancet and lost his arm. the very same mistake Russia made in the early part of the conflict was made by Ukraine, they got bogged and funneled into a kill one.
  6. The entire system is corrupt, western systems by their fixation on accumulation of all wealth are rotten to the core.
  7. Individuals that pay for certain results and benefits, these wealthy owners of franchises, corporates have their fingers on the pulse of America. Substance over form, it is the elite that control America not the electorate.
  8. https://reliefweb.int/report/world/global-slavery-index-2023 This does not include the report that the US is allowing child slavery from the southern border. I would be more concerned about being owned by Americans.
  9. Counter offensive ended with 3700+ losses to Ukrainian forces, 4 of the 6 German Leopard 2's destroyed, 72 Bradleys and estimated around 34 T72's, Russia lost 52 men with 216 wounded, losing 15 soviet era reservist division T72's. The Russian's knew where and when it was coming because they set the bait, the use of minefields and perfect dead zones to funnel in the Ukrainians while using kamakazi drones to destroy artillary and anti air allowing the Russian airforce free reign. The Military report that got intercepted before it could get burried by the Pentagon reported that they have underestimated Russian capabilities. It is time for a ceasefire before more Ukrainian lives are lost for arms contracts.
  10. If I was to walk away from Newcastle United, I would walk away from football because they are linked. I had done that from 2017-2021 when I stopped watching all football due to Mike Ashley's ownership.
  11. it's peddled by people like Stephan Howson, Strettforf Paddock and sometime Mark Goldbridge they keep the "Qatar or bust" narrative
  12. She spoke out about a trans athlete winning a womans off road bike challenge over the weekend by 5 minutes. On my Youtube feed, CNN, Forbes are the common and the senate judiciary hearings were on Forbes. per allsides and others Forbes is left of center, thus cannot be skewed and partisan bias. I don't know why my Youtube keeps bring up MSNBC, CNN and all that shitake I don't subscribe and I really have no interest in what they have to say.
  13. Nearly 4 years into what can only be described as a lame duck session where politics has gone to die. It doesn't matter who you vote for, both aisles are owned by the same interests and corruption is entrenched at the core of US politics. The Senate oversight committee hearings on the DHS was a political bloodbath pointing to a regime that is more interested in starting wars than the interests of their own people. To much dirty laundery is coming up, about censures, police state tactics and politically motivated arrests, underscored by bribery and corruption at the top. America is in its most desperate hour. In other news a genuine womans right activist and tennis legend Martina Navratilova attacked by the regime zealots for suggesting it was about time for the adoption of a trans league for trans athletes to compete on equal playing field and get the own recognition for it, she was then labelled a masogynist and TERF. I am pretty sure that instead of a solution where adults in the room decide to bury the hatchet as it were and act in the interest of the people that elected them, we will probably get another flurry of trumped up charges for better political amusements.
  14. generally it is, but that doesn't stop NATO and US from doing it.
  15. I don't get the Radcliff hate. it seems to be related to allowing the glazers to maintain minority share but nothing to do with the model he wants to adopt. the sad thing is this should have been sorted months ago and it puts man United on the back foot this summer. they are losing out on targets made even worse by Saudi clubs flashing the cash.
  16. I am not sure why the Reuben's could not have bought us outright as they have a net worth of 25 Billion, it was however the conditions that the Saudi's wanted the overwhelming majority. The people running the club don't' seem to be unsavory, if it is a reference to the Crown Prince, he doesn't run the club, nor has he even been to the club and there is no evidence that Al-Rumayyan is "unsavoury". Even in such instance, Bin Salman was acquitted on all charges relating to Keshoggi. I do accept that customs in Islamic States do not conform with standards in Western normative systems, but it is not my place to judge a culture that is different to my own. I do however not condone torture and unfair trails, but I don't accept on face value without substantive proof of such given the bias of Western media. Islam clashes with modern western systems because they do not endorse certain "practices" and therefore are political targets, along with the fact that they potentially are gatekeepers to a shift in the control of vital resources which have long been under the thumb of western proxy colonialism. The rise of BRICS is a major political reason why Saudi Arabia are the annoyance of the West.
  17. If this Jassim is just a private individual are you going to stop supporting your club? I could understand your choice if it turns out to be another front like PSG and they then try to infect the FA by putting there own people in positions to manipulate league rules etc, however if it is just Jassim as a sole owner then surely you wont.
  18. Pretty much how I see it, and treat it. I am only interested in the football club not Saudi Arabia. Under the new ownership structure having English people in positions to make footballing decisions and qualified to do so is the reason why we are doing well. Saudi Arabia buying out 80% ownership freed us of a tyrant that abused COVID loopholes to not pay people amongst his other nefarious actions from accounting fraud to money laundering. Saudi/Rueuben/Staveley consortium allowed the club to be set up like a football club again. Current UEFA and FA rules mean that neither body can inject personal wealth into the club and therefore the 13% growth year to year 2021-2013 is down to effective sport management, not Saudi Arabia and their stance on penal systems.
  19. I for one accept that there complexities of geopolitical debate means there are often two sides to each story and with the way mainstream media operates, the narrative received is not entirely truthful if not just abject lies, these are proxy bodies trying to pressure western normative standards for political gain. There are international bodies able to adjudicate on claims of unfair trials, until that is established it is speculative, that being said I am rather non negotiable on the element of equality before the law, ie: the right to a fair trial. Despite the noise there has been nothing forthcoming and speculation is not admissible evidence. Until something conclusive arises I can only accept that it is western bias against gulf states and Israel while they exhibit no condemnation of Palastine, Syria, Iran. They were trialed and convicted from sedition and in one case premeditated murder (shooting a security guard executioner style), I fail to see what the problem is, these people were not forced to do what they did, that said I would say the minimum acceptable penalty should be life in prison with possible rehabilitation and parole. Until the west sorts it's growing list of problems, I don't think we should be screaming from our ivory towers.
  20. I think it is all above board, however I am not sure I like the idea of the PIF helping Chelsea out by bailing them out of hamstringing contracts.
  21. They hold under 10% shares in clearlake which is not a conflict of interest per the FA and UEFA rules. Why will they fund religious fundamentalists for the Iran/Syria State when Iran is not a political ally, maybe Al Qaeda once upon a time though Al Qaeda was backed by the UK, Europe, the US so it's all academic.
  22. America is interested in selling war and geopolitical destabilization and creation of colonialism by proxy, anyone that talks out about it or brings out the dirty laundry is imprisoned and exiled or those that do not eat from the hand of the military industrial complex are persecuted. The US is a perfect technocracy, where a single corporate controls both aisles and no matter who wins, the agenda is the same. the prison complex is just the government turning the country into a gulag. if we are going to talk about countries that are going backwards, the US is prime case. the adoption of a parliament commission which panders as a court of law despite being a violation of the doctrine of separation of powers, parliament using judicial powers beyond their scope in order to remove opponents, shades of the 1952-58 constitutional crisis in South Africa when the government created a fake court to pass laws and circumvent the Appellate Division judicial oversight. poverty is growing because of political corruption and they have no intention to change. Baltimore has been under one party rule for half a century and the demographic remains poor and education is substandard, this is similar in Chicago, new York, Oakland, Oregon, Virginia, Los Angeles. while certain people get poor, the connected get richer. I think we can agree that the world is a bad place and the problem with America in its current state is that it can escalate to war and other major problems. Saudi Arabia has had its laws from well before western society and over the last 30 thry have reformed a lot of laws. I still fail to see how a football club that generates all its money from football operations is linked to Saudi Arabia, if investing is a link to politics then SaudiArabia owns America as they are invested into everything.
  23. the US has the death penalty but it's hardly used, America has a unsustainable incarceration problem with far to many convicts. instead of culling the herd or building bigger prisons, they just turned country into a prison. America's rampant lawlessness is attributed to a corrupt government, failing legal system and diminishing law enforcement, while the population is going up, ie more people, less cops per person. Germany is a tiny population relative to the US.
