If there was an Olympic medal for pedantry, MLG would be a multiple champion.

I can't be arsed with the fool today. 

Perhaps he can tell us how he believes the premier league is sustainable.

Sustainable in regard to what? It's recycling policy? You are being extremely vague!

Have a day off being a prick mate. 

Anyone other than a class a pedant understands the sustainability to mean financially.

'Financially' covers a vast area of different things. So again you are being vague.

Why is it 'financially unsustainable'? That is not an unreasonable question and doesn't make someone a 'prick' for asking. 🙄

Having been “forced” to watch gymnastics In Tokyo I thought being a judge would be ideal for MLG . They get docked 0.2 points for “not fully extending the foot “ or “ not quite raising the leg high enough to be as high as the head” etc !

I struggle to watch without feeling like a perv , hopefully the women will be allowed to wear body suits in future , I remember the total disgrace Blatter saying women footballers should wear tight shorts to make their games more appealing, spew …

The German gymnasts wore body suits.

Because Matthew, you'll again take a decent thread off on one of your pointless pedantic tangents and bore the fuck out of everyone. If the subject gives you a little twinge and you want to discuss it, by all means start a thread on it.

OK, I'll answer it for you.....

If the current income streams dry up or even reduce a bit, many/most/all clubs will be under sever pressure and will be unable to balance their books (not that they can now) at current rates of wage payments and fees for signing. How likely is that to happen? Your guess is as good as mine. 

Of course this would be a temporary thing while existing contracts remain valid, as you would sign up new players on vastly reduced terms. Maybe a few clubs, with owners richer than Croesus, would happily run 8 or 9 figure annual losses, that is, if the authorities allowed it.

Quite , they all should have the choice, the Norwegian softball team were fined for wearing shorts not bikini bottoms in the recent beach softball competition. This sexism should be eradicated from sport before people make the link between ISIS or the Taliban and OUR treatment of women.

I would probably watch less women's gymnastics if they wore more clothes, but I can totally understand why they prefer not to parade their gusset.

Re Gao: I am not saying he should have a master plan and should be actively engaged in day to day affairs, or that we should have some kind of unique selling point. I just take issue with the idea that "self sustaining" is a strategy because running at 80% wages to turnover and borrowing 80m quid is not sustainable so, even if it is a strategy ' it's not going to lead anywhere in the long run. And that's fine, I guess. Lots of clubs come and go, and we go through ups and downs. 

Personally, though, if I was going to acquire a business, I would make sure I could actually bring something useful to the table. I guess I see it as a question of integrity, largely. He saw Saints as a convenient place to dump some cash outside China. That's all we are to him. And I don't respect that.

I was pleasantly surprised by the GB Rugby 7s ladies. Let's say some were more appealing than I was expecting. They're not the Dutch Hockey team, but who is, right?

This is the correct thread for pathetic middle aged men to perv over the Olympics, right?

So you always do this act when outted yes? I'm not interested. You're boring. I can't be bothered. Basically as you have been shown up yet again. 

If you can't debate, don't rule and act all high and mighty. It will save you alot of embarrassment.

Bless, you're a bit bothered petal aren't you. As for debate, you've had people asking you for weeks to explain your ramblings about covid and you still haven't, then you have the audacity to criticise when people choose not to debate something irrelevant to the thread. 

Your persona is slipping mate from mental to annoying. Pick a usp and stick with it.

In what way is that a "silly" quote ? Just because you didn't do Latin at school it's OK, you don't have to feel deprived.

I am quite capable of debating in an adult manner, if I am debating with an adult.

Nothing silly about it. It's from the Bible. Luke 4:23 to be pedantic. It's worth a read sometime.

You ran off. Not me. As u did above as ever, citing your superiority and an unwillingness to debate with people you believe are beneath you. A huge flaw in personality that.

We're still waiting for you to set out your argument re vaccines and population control. I'd have though someone who knew so much about debating would understand the need to present a case... 🤔

Ran off! Double bless. I'll debate away on any subject. What I won't do is get dragged into irrelevant shite, especially with idiots and pedants.

Your persona is slipping further btw...the last one was more fun but the irritating side is coming out more.

I do sympathise with women in sport. Basically I view every competing woman with a ‘would I?’ Even extended it to the  Chinese table tennis players which was worrying.

Some people find it very difficult to watch the rhythmic gymnastics without their trousers around their ankles.

I have first hand knowledge that this behaviour will get you thrown out of the Walkabout, even if you have ordered a main including extra onion rings.

I do this to literally every woman I set eyes upon.  Even cartoon characters (the jury's out on Marge although the cyclops from Futurama would get it).

Basically twats calling other twats twats, and discussing female sports clothing which reveal their twats. I think.

Betty’s much hotter than Wilma with her elongated melon head.

Also Betty’s filthy, it’s obvious.

I’ve often wondered about things like waxing. Who decided it was a good isea to put hot wax on their fanny and then rip it off with a sheet of paper? It’s got misogynistic written all over it

You could argue the same about armpits and legs too. Unlikely that Betty and Wilma were shaving any body hair.
