  1. , What a classy retraction. For the second time, you've been shown to have made this up. But, rather than you being wrong, the offending posts are out there...somewhere. You're still accusing Kraken of them. You just don't know where they are. You used these fictitious posts as being on another site to show some sort of long standing, cross platform emnity. Now, it might have just been here. Not that you can find those either, in your whataboutery. But they are out there...and...and...anyway...look at some other Sotonian posts that have nothing to do with the matter at hand. The one thing that we can conclude from a look at any Saints platform, is that every one of them thinks of you in exactly the same way.
  2. A grim showing from VA. 4-1, with our Rento getting the 1 on 89 mins, as he sped between defenders. Dijon had 2 chances shortly before that and 1 shortly after, to have made it 5. The first came from a clearance that instead arced high and back into the VA box. The keeper parried the close range shot only for it to be put in on the rebound from that. The clearance wasn't the worst thing. It's only 4 mins into the match. It was the first head going down and that the whole defence were shown to be less reactive and quick. A second came shortly before half time. VA not strong enough to carry the ball anywhere. No surprise when it's taken from them, and an excellent shot finishes the move. VA's amazing team talks continue. A few minutes into the second half and they pass to nowhere. Dijon pick it up, work it with few passes into the box, where the scorer ghosts past the defence. Dijon's final goal was a header where the VA defender was easily outmuscled. VA were brushed aside in that game. Dijon didn't have to put in too much of a fight to be easy winners.
  3. SR get Frank!
  4. I'd heard the mods had been looking into that person. The last victim clammed up, so this is progress.
  5. Due to cultural confusion, everyone's deceased animal companions actually cross Bifrost, the rainbow bridge between here and Asgard. And now you know why they are always feasting in Norse mythology.

  7. This is where you should have put more thought into your username. When The Kraken gets superpowers, you know what's happening there. Whelk powers...
  8. I remember campaigning for the death penalty for any reoffence including and above littering. Yet, despite the zero reoffending rate, it was seen a somehow an injust system.
  9. I'd play Hopkins ahead of Downs and see how Evans worked out on a radio phone in show.
  10. Definitely get him more involved. There's a chance we'll miss out on League 1 next season without him.
  11. He has a proven record of promotion from the division with a recently relegated club. But this was actually my first thought too.
  12. 7 hours ago, @Sir Ralph said: So you think we are essentially far right. You really dont understand what far right is so I would recommend not using the term until you have read up on it and the history relating to far right regimes. Whilst I would not say you fall within the definition of far left because I understand what that means, you certainly are not a liberal with a small L. Just because we draw fire from liberals (or lefties as I call them) that doesnt mean we are far right, it means we disagree with some of the views that they have (this forum has a higher proportion of liberals). I dont call you far left even though I think some of your views are extreme. That's not how it works. You need to better understand what those terms mean before you call people that. The SaintsWeb political spectrum works a little differently. There's the extreme left through the left where it meets up with The Guardian headlines. SOG is led pretty much by that. Anything not aligning to any of that position (even if it has changed) is a far right, flag raising, Neanderthal, Brexit loving racist. In summary: Communist; Your Party; SOG; Reform/Robinson-Thug When a number of us checked out where we were on a political graph a while back, all bar one of us were in the same general area. Plenty of scope on how each of us ended up there, with various views balancing out to give a single point. But lots of room for respectful discussion. It's a good thing to see you take people as you find them. So, you can read the below and just continue to to do just that. I'd been a long time lurker before being more active of late. So, I'd dip in and out. And that was nearly always the main board. I'd check out the lounge very sporadically. I found my view of SOG change considerably from reading isolated parts, to seeing full discussions from scratch. I'd remembered some indecisive liberal positions. And I remember wondering why the response seemed heavy handed. Reading it from scratch, the individual posts didn't tie up with the loose liberal perspective. . And that's fine. Everyone is shaped by life events and experiences. No one expects flawless consistency. What I wasn't expecting, but the others had already been through was the nature of some of the comments. On one hand self styled, liberal champion of empathy, tolerance and intelligence. On the other was the poster most likely to use racist slurs. An anti Semite well before the latest Gaza conflict. Possibly the most intolerant to the thoughts of others poster we have. This is where all this Hopkins/Robinson stuff stems from. It's SOG's labelling of those who disagree. No one else had any interest in them. Decrying the lack of intelligence of others, leaning on a long career fighting knife crime, sexual assault and in journalism. Except he got caught out on the CPS own processes, showed a degree of victim disregard that would have got him transferred for his own personal safety and showed a willingness to believe or disbelieve legal outcomes as it suited. It turned out he had administrative rather than investigative duties. The crusading journalism? sales division, after clearly showing no journalistic investigative skills. And no one would have cared less, or thought less of views for them being from that perspective. But the condescension and disregard for other equally valid views put plenty of people off well before me. I leave you to discover the joys of Fantasy Mealtime, Nazi Belt Buckle Review and Distorted On The Buses Bantz. That political spectrum test showed us broadly where we were. SOGs the one who would fix his answers to the desired outcome, regardless of the actual opinions.
  13. I'm a political atheist. I don't believe governments exist. I've been wondering what's being discussed since the opening post. 🙂
