  1. Maybe if he agreed to stop making the libellous claims that resulted in his incarceration in the first place, that might help his appeal? Failing that, he ought to employ nic to head up his appeal team on the grounds that a Somalian doesn’t have to go back to Somalia.
  2. That’s what I thought initially, but apparently they are still trading with Russia at a level significantly higher than a number of countries who have been hit with tariffs of 10% (at the start of the announcement of tariffs) so that argument doesn’t hold true. https://amp.dw.com/en/donald-trump-tariffs-russia-belarus-sanctions-imports-trade-goods/a-72150328
  3. Don’t bite. He is the forum version of Joey Barton. Strong prospect Rohl is mid table himself in the Chsmpionship but he is a bloke so that’s ok I guess.
  4. Will Still being mentioned now.
  5. Anyone know what the tariffs are imposed on Russia and North Korea?
  6. You do know that Donald Ducks didn’t actually write it don’t you? Who would want to kiss his flabby orange ass (apart from GM)? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/video/2025/apr/09/they-are-kissing-my-ass-trump-says-countries-are-pleading-to-negotiate-tariffs-video Japan selling bonds…the art of the deal working well there then. 😂 I remember a SWF sage telling us a while back that “socialism is dangerous”. If that is the case, what does it make capitalism under someone like Trump?
  7. How many of the 14 in Eco’s test do Trump and his administration tick? https://www.openculture.com/2024/11/umberto-ecos-list-of-the-14-common-features-of-fascism.html
  8. No surprise but still disturbing. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yr0zw65lro.amp
  9. So Lead Belly was the starting point for the term “woke”. You learn something new every day. https://the-past.com/comment/on-the-origins-of-woke/
  10. If true this would explain a lot. https://mindsitenews.org/2025/04/01/sanewashed-trump-dementia-and-mental-illness/
  11. This is very true. But, think about it, if you owned the club would you employ someone you and your board wanted or who the fans wanted? It is their club. It is their money. They call the shots. As you say, it doesn’t matter a hoot. At some point the next manager will also be deemed as being a clown for losing matches, selecting the wrong team, using the wrong tactics, buying or selling the wrong players etc. Even Koeman faced calls for the sack by some in this forum. The new manager will either be good, bad or indifferent - all three often seen as such by many different fans after every game.
  12. This can’t possibly be the case. Nic had assured us that Trump surrounds himself with proper bona fide experts!!! More here. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2025/4/4/2314684/-Rachel-Maddow-Trump-crashed-the-world-s-markets-based-on-the-advice-of-a-fictional-economist# How many times has Trump filed for bankruptcy? 6 isn’t it? Perhaps he isn’t that business savvy after all nic and needs to find some new, real financial experts?

    Ivan Juric

    Probably should have gone earlier but no point in keeping him on board if he isn’t going to be here next season. Time to clear the decks and start planning for next season.

    Israel

    There have been countless claims of “alleged” war crimes but you won’t find hypochondriac criticising the IDF for any of them. In fact he thinks that it is appropriate to post laughing emojis instead. Back to the IDF who, apparently, take great care in choosing their targets. https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/liveblog/2025/4/7/live-israel-kills-43-in-gaza-orders-palestinians-in-deir-el-balah-to-flee If the IDF want a kill zone why can’t they use their own land rather than encroaching further into Gaza and Palestinian land? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/apr/07/israel-military-gaza-perimeter-land-testimony-report
  15. Badenoch demonstrates once again what a nasty piece of work she is. Now she sides with a foreign regime over democratically elected colleagues going about their lawful business. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/apr/06/kemi-badenoch-israel-labour-mps-yuan-yang-abtisam-mohamed

    Not sure what your point is? If I didn’t post a link the usual suspects would accuse me of making it up.

    IDF lying again? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4g2z103nqxo.amp
  18. So no truth in the rumour that Trump is going to apply a 50% tariff on football forums in the UK because they are saying nasty things about him then? You really do love a conspiracy theory don’t you nic? Tell me, what can we do on TSW to stop Trump in his tracks. If we have the power, tell us how to harness it please.
  19. I read an interesting article about this case this morning. Narcissists have a very large but fragile ego and use it as a support system. They need to feel special and superior and cannot handle rejection as it plays into their deep seated feelings of inadequacy. Brand is a self confessed narcissist. He says that all of his sexual contacts have been consensual. They cannot handle rejection which means that they might not be able to take “no” as an answer, or maybe the “no” just doesn’t compute. That is not to say that every narcissist is a rapist or that Brand is guilty but then neither does the fact that he lived up to a rock star image and,no doubt, had many women throwing themselves at him, mean that he still didn’t take “no” as an answer from some of them. Not seen anything of him for a while, but he seems to be playing the good God fearing Christian card according to the clips they played on the news last night. Strange bloke.

    Russia

    It doesn’t matter if you were or were not. The simple fact is that you have said very clearly on here that the tens of thousands of innocent people in Gaza deserved what they get because, in one way or another, they are associated with Hamas. You, and a few others, have not shown any kind of sympathy towards the Palestinian people, be it in Gaza or those being thrown out of their homes on the West Bank. If it was the other way round, you would be all over it like a rash. Why do you use the word “obsession”? Would you use that word in a pejorative sense to describe those who keep the memory of the Holocaust alive? What is happening right now is an obscenity. You think we should just turn a blind eye to what is happening (and I include 7th October in this and all of the events prior). People have the perfect right to live in peace without having their land stolen by the neighbours, whoever they are. Wouldn’t you agree? Both the Ukrainians and the Palestinians are currently having their human rights put under threat by more powerful neighbours. You ok with that?
  21. I have been thoroughly enjoying the contributions on this thread from the forum’s self proclaimed greatest intellect. He does seem to be struggling with issues that are not necessarily mutually exclusive however. For example, it is entirely possible for Donald Trump and his actions to be motivated by the fact that he is both “thick” and “sinister”.

    Russia

    Obsessed? Pointing out the obvious fact that there are several people on here who clearly think it is ok for one lot of civilians to be killed and another lot not okay is hardly an obsession, it is trying to put things into context. I am sure that most people on here can understand that killing civilians is unacceptable no matter who they are. Sadly a few of you think that some are fair game.
  23. I compared a pile of rubble with a pile of rubble. You on the other hand said it was ok to kill innocent Palestinians because they were all complicit for the actions of a minority. A tad hypocritical to call me out when your comment actually did more than “make light of innocent Muslims being killed”.
  24. A guy phoned into an American radio show and said how much he supported Trump’s tariffs. When asked what he does he said that he had his own company selling T-shirts. He imports those T-shirts from China. D’oh! 😜
