    Rule changes in football

    It is just another area that makes the whole thing feel processional., like getting rid of the 2 games over Easter (Saturday and Easter Monday) and the tight fixtures around Christmas. Replays and concentrated fixtures added an element of surprise, of the unknown, into the season, like when...

    Victimpool FC - Klopp leaving, grown men crying

    Yeah, we are quite happy to have not even won that in the meaningful past. So much better to have no trophies at all than the 'condescending pat on the head' of victory in that meaningless tin pot challenge :rolleyes:

    Hamas also provide the only meaningful social support network in Gaza, they are not 'just' a terrorist organisation. That is one of the reasons they were politically successful in 2005 land what presented an opportunity for engagement then which Israel and the West deliberately chose to...

    Sick sick world what is wrong with people

    From a climate crisis, mass extinction, rampant capitalism, inequality, rise of right wing authoritarianism point of view, yes. From general day to day life in one of the safest countries in the world, no.

    Sick sick world what is wrong with people

    Nope, don't think is. In fact most statistics suggest overall crime rates are down from 40 years ago.

    Sick sick world what is wrong with people

    No one is saying there is no crime or horrible people. Just that it isn't any worse than it has been before and it isn't because of all the migrants or because not all brits are white anymore. Conflict has been fairly continuous for the last 4000 years at least.

    The Official 2023/24 Premier League Thread

    Just is a bit odd though statistically given that there is a relatively clear correlation between league position and number of penalties (correlation of 0.54 so a moderate correlation between position and number of penalties but doesn't show causation - do more penalties improve your position...

    Former Reform Party MEP who is still peddling racist nonsense about grooming gangs quoted on a whack job twitter account. If it plays to your audience I guess.

    There is no point to them. At all.

    As Republican as I am I think Inheritance tax was paid on Diana's estate. It is only the stuff which is passed on as Monarch (and I think the Duchies) that doesn't get taxed but there is a lot of grey area of what is the Crown's and what is the personal possession - art work, horses, gifts etc...

    And yet more Americans visit Versailles than Windsor or Buckingham Palace. In fact more tourists (domestic and foreign) go to Chester Zoo or the Science Museum than to a royal residence. The big events do pull extra tourists in but is that extra cash enough compensation for the negative impact...

    Bundesliga Bonestroker Thread

    Or did they just happen to manage him when he was producing some of his most productive football? I am still bemused by the 'worldly-ness' of either of these managers.
