That's fine - I looked back about 10 - 15 pages and just looked for one of the usual suspects. Glad that you are condemning the continuous bombing of Gaza and Gazan people though - as what you describe above has clearly been happening.

True - that's fine if you are condemning the Israeli army for their bombardment of innocent people in Gaza, as only very few will be accidental killings.

They do - not on the scale that the most advanced military in the world (TM) are purporting.

I mean, there are tons from you - but this one trying to pass off Israeli atrocities as horrible accidents. You can't actually believe that?

Just noticing the trends, that's all.

I have noticed that that it seems to be the same people making excuses for the disillusioned white that are also making excuses for the Israeli bombardment of Gaza. Unfortunately the only link I can see is that the main victims seem to be Muslim.

No, I'm saying that there has never been a vote to lower immigration. Read my post. Immigration levels are only a concern because successive electorate don't understand immigration. The point of Brexit was to get rid of brown people, even though it was only going to raise the number of brown people. Brexiteers are now reaping what they sowed. Ignorance and stupidity is not and never will be an excuse for violence.

Good, have to protect people - that is the first job of a Government is to protect their people.

Nobody voted to lower immigration - that has never been put to the people. I would also imagine the vast, vast majority of these idiots don't vote. I think it would be good to see the army on the streets. Would love to see some white English scum having their heads cracked.

Yup, as I said all through the season last year. No one was really talking about finances apart from me and now finally people are catching on. Essentially to make a good fist of the Premier League and be able to spend you need 2 to 3 seasons of little spending, so either consolidated in the Premier League or not a yo-yo club.

The issue is we are low on good quality players AND backups. Unfortunately, and I have been banging this drum over and over, we fucked ourselves 2 years ago and weren't strong enough to get promoted and compete financially.

He will be as we are not close to the asking price and are assessing other options (loans in and out).

Tbf we tried that under Ralph.

Can't afford to spend much more. Why don't people understand this simple premise?

FFP and PSR are essentially the same thing, and that was mentioned. Bringing up Palace is completely irrevelant to getting promoted now - they never had to deal with it.

Or where you haven't been in the PL for years and can spend as if you have £100m in your back pocket.

No, the discussion was about yoyo clubs in the PSR era. I know that, because I started the fucking discussion.

I agree, no one wants it, but it's very difficult with PSR to get out of yoyoing unless you come up, spend next to nothing and stay up.

Palace haven't been in the Chpionship since 2012???

Bournemouth spent 2 years in the Championship between 2020 and 2022. Fulham have been Champ, Prem, Champ, Prem, Champ, Prem, Prem over the last 6 seasons - literally the definition of yoyo. They stayed up in 2022 because when they got promoted in 2020 they only spent £30m, then £17m in 2021 when in the champ. This meant they got promoted with the opportunity to spend £70m, and having Mitrovic up front helped. They nearly got fucked by PSR last year as well due to that Just because 1 club doesn't fit the rule doesn't mean the rule isn't correct, it means they are an outlier. So no, not like Bournemouth and Fulham.

People bemoaning not spending money makes me laugh - it was why I consistently said that being promoted would not really be a great idea and that we'd start to become a yo-yo team. The only way to stay in the Prem is to do an Ipswich - stay in the Championship or a lower division for a few seasons, re-group with a strong spine, then get promoted with no FFP issues and spend. Getting relegated and then being promoted again means you don't have that opportunity.

Fuck me, I've got to stop sniffing glue.

As we see below from a chat I was having...

Not sure if joking due to lack of emoji's...

I'm really interested in how we're going to play next season - if we're going 5 at the back this could be very interesting as we'll play the overlap from fullback and essentially play with 3 strikers (Arma off right, BBD off left and central striker).
