    The levels of surmountability are hard to gauge when someone is desperate. I accept the ethic of what you're saying; the practical reality is a little harder to state as fact IMO. I think for your perspective to be universal fact there has to be the exact same starting point. Sadly that is not...

    *** The official 2025/26 Premier League thread ***

    Agreed. DeZerbi will demand no less than 6 points from these final two games.

    I've skipped the rest of what you said because, well, there's little point as I agree with most of it and you seemingly think I don't; all good, not important. However I'd be interested in you clarifying what you meant with that first sentence above, and with regards to the last two. Postecoglu...

    I think circumstances and context are vital before evaluating the choices people make. I think your conclusions with regards to choice and personal responsibilities are far too binary. And this comes from someone who believes very much in the concept of personal responsibility and ownership...

    OK mate. All good.

    I think this is absolutely true too, yes. I think that is part of the huge issue. We do live in the information age, and discerning between what information is solid versus not requires a skillset I see as being beyond the reach of many people. We all fall for it sometimes. I think making the...

    That's the whole point! So many are bewildered and have some legitimate reasons to be angry. Thing is, they're the same reasons as most people and involve the same protagonists. The problem is when someone sells them the idea that it is all down to 'waves' of black and brown people, when it's...

    My overwhelming feeling watching that video clip is one of sadness. I genuinely do not believe most people holding those flags or picking up those wooden crosses or chanting 'we want Starmer out' or saying 'on the march - let's go!' are actually racists at heart. Not at all. I think they are a...

    No. You wish. You're doing that 'zero to 60' thing again. I mentioned a potential 'if' with a potential result: the only fact there is that the run of games we've had with DeZerbi place us on top 3 form. The rest is conjecture which might, or might not, be accurate. We'll never know will we...

    I think the factor which has to be considered there is that the mullahs might actually not care as much about that as we think/wish about such logical angles, because they will already feel they have comfortably 'won' the 'PR war' with the public. My personal opinion is that we will all need...

    Was speaking with a Lufthansa pilot at the beginning of the week on a flight out of Athens, and he said that they have canceled a lot of smaller internal flights already with more to come. It is very real and getting more so by the day.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    I could tell you many stories...electric fences via Ken Bates...you know the concert security company Showsec? They were literally formed across the street from The Shed (well, y'know, up and across the street) as the founders recruited Chelsea boot-boys! The racism was only matched by West Ham...

    Good job that won't be an issue.

    That's a decent shout albeit I don't think Tel is a CF. I like what I see of Lankshear but am not sure we can rely on him. I think we will need two CFs as well as those two, and yes, one of those has to be high quality.
