It’s time to goooooooo!

Ffs.

Subconscious racisms everywhere, it stinks the place out, it just hangs heavy in the air. It hides in plain sight, As British we’re good at hiding it..a lot Americans just come out & say their racist. As I’ve got older I’ve realised trying to change anything is idealistic..fanciful really..the best you can hope for is that each generation improves things by about 3%. I’m white & middle aged. I’m a turkey voting for Christmas...but here I am.

Errrrr...

Right...ok...not sure what you’re point is here? As someone who had one Polish grandparent who fled to England in 1939, I’m fully supportive of books & films abut the Holocaust. I’m fascinated by it. (& obviously appalled)I’m genuinely not sure what your point is with that sentence? I don’t think there is any significant historical figure/event that shouldn’t/can’t be represented in a book. I do think there are historical figures who shouldn’t have statues.

No..there’s hundreds of books and documentaries still being made about slavery.I’ve just gone on Amazon books section, typed in Slavery, and literally hundreds of books appeared. Some I was allowed to buy, some I could download for free. Some were texts currently used in schools.

No we shouldn’t tear down Auchwitz...but I think any statues of Hitler should be removed. There is a difference.Statues are mainly built to honour someone’s contribution to society. Auchwitz wasn’t built to honour anything...but it’s a stark reminder of an unthinkable moment in history.Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it and all that.

Any chance of a nibble?

I actually believe Ralph will waive the 5 million fee to get him out of his contract, and leave for the good of the club. He’s a lovely bloke..but not Premiership quality. Thanks for all you’ve done Ralph.

DON’T PANIC!.....DON’T PANIC!!!!!

We can waffle about sleeves, stuck monitors, ‘falling out of love with the game’ (rarely gets said when we win btw),red card betting syndicates, dodgy refs.....but it’s all irrelevant..we were shit.

On the plus side we’re trending worldwide on Twitter..so that may be good for our ‘Marketing Reach’ in place like Asia & Africa.

I honestly think we could be all right, we’ve beaten better Man U teams than this with shitter line-ups than this.

He’s got a lot to prove. I remember Salzburg fans not being happy when he left. I’m confident on this one.

Happy with Minamimo, great player. Decent for Salzburg. Hasn’t got going yet with Liverpool.

I don’t think the Green Bay analogy really works. In American football every club is huge apart from Green Bay (I think it’s population is 100k or something) so they are unique. In English football there are about 70 clubs smaller than us, it would be difficult to market us as underdogs.

Can’t remember. Possibly a reserve game.

Fair play to him. We all moan on here about players happy to warm the bench & show no ambition. He seems like a bloke who wants to role up his sleeves and crack on. Which hopefully means he’ll be a success..somewhere.

Just pissed off really. Pissed off with lockdown..just thought I’d take it out on that poster. Could have been anyone tbh! I don’t even think I read his/her post when I responded.

Yeah thanks as I said to Turkish the clue was ‘I’m possibly misunderstang release clauses’ but thanks for explaining in the kind of passive aggressive manner that seems unique to this forum!

Oh...yeah the clue was me saying ‘I’m possibly misunderstanding release clauses’ but thanks for responding with the warmth I’ve come to know & love from Turkish! I just had some memory of Suarez having a £40 million realease clause & Arsenal offered £40 million & £1.00 pound. My message is sent with love by the way Turkish!

Everyone says 20 million release clause is ridiculous...but surely that doesn’t mean he’d go for £20 million. If Leicester say ‘Ok we’ll take him for £20 million are all the other clubs just going to hold back and say ‘oh that’s a shame Leicester have got him for 20 million’ wouldn’t there naturally be a bidding war?..I’m possibly misunderstanding release clauses

Ha ha, look at their crap line-up! We’re going to smash them! Hilarious.

I'm no longer pro or anti Cavani getting banned.Far more important things to think about than that. I think that’s the answer you use when your copping out isn’t it Turkish?
