  1. Yep. I tried logging in with the same details as online (pre-app) but it wouldn't allow. So I used the 'sign in with a Google' option, and it allowed me in, but couldn't use the original Holstan Kiel. So just took out the space. If you can remove the one with the space between the names that'd be good, otherwise leave it.
  2. Joined, I think! Anyone know how I can change my team name?
  3. Genuinely thought about going all out on 4 star players and filling the rest out with crap. Be right back
  4. @nudge have you got a league invitation code?
  5. Heard that this is likely to be released as part of the IPCC investigations.
  6. Top 3 teams: ( 3 points, if you predict a team and their position correct; 1 point, if you correctly predict a team, but get their position wrong) 1- Dusseldorf 2- Koln 3- HSV Bottom 3 teams: ( 3 points, if you predict a team and their position correct; 1 point, if you correctly predict a team, but get their position wrong) 16- Ulm 17- Regensburg 18- Munster Teams involved in the win with the largest goal margin: ( 3 points if you get the winner or loser right; 8 points if both of them are correct) Winner- Dusseldorf Loser- Ulm Top Scorer: (5 points) Glatzel
  7. I think you've missed the point about the incident? You're right it's probably nothing to do with racism (but police do have a great record when it comes to this...not). But if you're behaving like a clown in an airport, do you deserve to be kicked and stamped in the head while already restrained and seemingly not posing a threat? If you're broken a female copper's nose (which is bad enough and should not be tolerated in any circumstance), then you should be arrested and charged and tried with that process. When you're down on the floor, Tasered already, not even facing the police, clearly unable to move or look to attack therefore the threat decreased significantly, do you deserve to be kicked and stamped on the head? I think not. I don't get why there are religious-based protests either. As for Anjem Choudary and no protests there, are you taking the piss ? They're two totally different individuals and circumstances. Might it have occurred to you that perhaps not all Muslims actually agree with him, and therefore see no reason to protest just because he happens to be Muslim too? Or are you saying that because he is Muslim, they should have protested regardless? Come on, man. That's such a bad analogy and example you've put forward.
  8. Did the same officer pepper-spray one of the people filming?
  9. We still continuing with this? Or is there another game to use? (other than Comunio as that doesn't seem likely)
  10. Never too late but I guess it's not the done thing. Especially if you've invested years and years into supporting a side. But there's nothing stopping you from deciding what you want to do. You have your reasons! I don't think I could ever fully change my team; Leicester is what I grew up with and it's part of me. Have never changed who I support and not sure I ever will. Even with the way football is going I think it'd have to be a long process to eventually stop supporting them, and don't think I could ever get fully invested in a team like I have with them. As for teams from a different country, I'd say I follow a select bunch, as opposed to support. So those teams will come and go over periods of time in terms of who I avidly follow or feel connected to. I've noticed a lot of the time wherever I go on holiday I'll have a soft spot for for while after I've visited (I'm a sucker for a stadium tour ). Recently it's been Benfica, Valencia, Atletico Madrid, Inter/AC Milan. There's also the nostalgia looking back on childhood when you perhaps first start watching, and there could be family connections for instance like you've mentioned that influence you. In terms of nostalgia, the 90s seemed a great time to follow football, and that inspired a lot.
  11. What were the 'phone wavers' doing wrong, just out of interest? At the time the guy is being kicked in the head, he's face down and barely moving in a threatening way. Perhaps that's subjective but it's why there's such a debate going on about excessive force. If he lunges towards the police, then he's probably fair game. Does he look aggressive in that moment? I'd opt for not so much. The alternative in that moment, by the looks of it, was for the officer to keep him restrained and arrest him, therefore eliminating all kind of threat to himself and other officers. It was just unnecessary to get a kick to and stomp on the head. One was bad enough, but to do both is brutal.
  12. Can it not be played online any more? Only on app?
  13. Pole Position - Which driver will post the fastest lap in Q3 AFTER MAX VERSTAPPEN IS REMOVED FROM THE RESULTS? NORRIS Podium - Which drivers will finish the Grand Prix in the top three positions AFTER MAX VERSTAPPEN IS REMOVED FROM THE RESULTS? 1. NORRIS 2. PIASTRI 3. SAINZ Random Driver - Predict the finishing position of this week's random driver, Lance Stroll. 9th Bonus Question - With Max Verstappen set to take an engine-related grid penalty this weekend, how many positions will he make up between the start and end of the race? 7
  14. But the guy was already on the floor, stationary, and wasn't looking to attack the police officer(s). He looked like he had been Tasered already, too.
  15. The guy is on the floor. The threat has been mitigated and risk seriously decreased, let alone the fact that he's got 3 armed cops with Tasers pointing at him. He poses little to no threat at that moment in time. There was literally no need to kerb-stomp his head and volley his face in like he did. It's an abuse of power. I don't condone violence on police and emergency workers (who the fuck does) but whatever happened before has happened, they got their man in a position where he couldn't fight back. He was literally prone on the floor doing fuck all at the time. It's just a revenge opportunity that the cop took with both hands but wasn't necessary. GMP issued their statement saying the guy had attacked emergency workers in the lead up to the event. There's no excuse for that and he should feel the full force of the law, not the end of someone's boot in the face. Literally no-one is using this as an opportunity to get on the back of police/emergency services. The cop kicking him deserves the criticism because he's acted like a bellend and doesn't actually represent the whole force. You've got to be an utter melt if that's the angle you think people are taking.
