    As I say, stung by the definition.

    Ha!! Love the defensiveness. I think the definition has stung. Islamaphobia is a form of racism.
  3. 16ft I think, so about 5 m. I never went above the 3rd board. Too much of a wuss to go any higher.

    Funeral music

    I'd want loads of music, then everyone eating and drinking at my expense. Eulogy - Frank Turner Asleep - Smiths (there is a light is also a great shout by Turkish) Here comes the Sun - The Beatles
  5. I understand his point. I also know that he is unnecessarily quick to blame the Muslims. He's not alone.
  6. I don't assume that a particular religious group is at fault. Await the facts, the discuss. It's not complicated if you can keep your assumptions to one side. I have no fear of being accused of islamaphobia as I am not islamaphobic. I think some on this forum are though.
  7. Yes. No colour., creed, religion amongst that. When those facts are known then those facts can be discussed. Most people don't come onto a forum posting their assumptions about those absent facts.
  8. Manners have nothing to do with you rushing to blame a group of people before awaiting even the basic facts. I didn't realise you actually expected a comment on your daft mcvities analogy.
  9. That's untrue. You did not know whether the German guy was brown/white or whatever before you jumped in. To be fair, you showed a little restraint this time. I rely on facts/evidence on a case by case basis. You make assumptions, and you protest too much as to why.
  10. Ankersen is a shareholder/part owner.
  11. The issue is people assuming before any details are known. There's a few who rush to blame Islamists before knowing whether the perpetrator was indeed Muslim. Some may say that's a reasonable assumption, others see it differently.
  12. If you're referring to Ankersen, he is an owner. As for NC, what he did ain't any better than you describe.
  13. Chocolate
  14. Indeed there are, but there aren't many who can bring loads of it. Lallana does. As for the rest, the performance of the team and the ability of the management/coaching team ain't on Lallana! That's on your boy RM who was kept on far too long.
  15. I can't imagine there's anything in that! We're down, and no big money signing would come in knowing that.
  16. I'm not sure you're seeing what I am. He plays like a manager/coach, and we'll need more of that next season with what will probably be a more junior team. He's vital behind the scenes too, and my understanding is that he has held the dressing room together this season. He's staying, and I'm pretty sure that once he's finished playing, he'll move into a coaching role in some capacity.
  17. It won't be forgotten, but it's a tad random to just bring it up. Any of us could dredge up the moors murders, or any other hideous act. Graphic detail of what these sick people did just isn't needed.
  18. Bit harsh that. A year of Amazon Prime as well would be fair.
  19. So that's a no. He had an OBE already. If he was to get an award, it could only be a CBE or Knighthood. Personally, I think an honour was due, but I'm staggered that he bypassed a CBE and got a knighthood.

    He made an actual point.

    Elon Musk

    Interesting observation, and the tech Innovation point is a good one. I look at what we achieved way back (getting to the moon, blackbird, concorde, etc) and see very little progress in that area whereas the advances with computers, phones, medical equipment, etc, is massive. I guess something like this may spark progress and innovation.
  22. I like getting a creme egg months ahead of schedule.

    I'm not talking about the moon.

    Sport Republic

    I'm intrigued. What capital projects would generate enough revenue to buy players for next season and pay their wages?
  25. If it was Dave from Derby you wouldn't have bothered. Regardless, child and gang rape sadly happens and always has. These perpetrators being caught, convicted and sentenced is surely a positive, not a negative.
