See I think it’s easy to spot the people on here that had to endure the Tonev/Dawkins era and those that didn’t
Really tough to feel entitled about any incomings when you’ve lived through windows like this:
The hate Argentina got this tournament made me realize how easy it is to brainwash and program people. Would love to see someone publish work on this some day as it’s a very interesting case study.
Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.
when we host euro 2028 i hope we pack the executive boxes with rugby league players, dartsmen, county cricketers & the entire casts of eastenders/emmerdale to sporadically cut to them during matches with no explanation graphic of who they are
@JohnThoo9 @punishedgherkin@Jon_Mackenzie@316simsim I’ve read the reports of both Grenfell enquiries and they are both incredibly tragic and deeply infuriating in terms of a) the corners that were cut in the construction phase and b) the legal principles that allowed the original developers to ringfence liability
@JohnThoo9 @punishedgherkin@Jon_Mackenzie@316simsim As a construction lawyer, this tragedy highlighted the serious shortcomings of the industry and led to huge legislative changes, including the Building Safety Act 2022 which was legally seismic and includes powers to sidestep ‘privity of contract’, a cornerstone of English law
Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums. Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?
@espenstrand@CWeatherspoon_ Without. Back of a tissue maths shows that we earned £35m less in UEFA prize money, with £23.3m more in PL.
So a £11.7m shortfall, where we had £6m to play with last year.
Assuming no other variables, I make that a £5.7m sale required to sneak under.
And breathe..
@astonvilla___ Aren’t we under the conditions of the UEFA punishment? AFAIK, under that we can only do a one in one out and each replacement can’t earn more than the outgoing player?
@shreyas120308@theavfcfaithful@xGPhilosophy Ermmmm actually it means we were performing better than our underlying statistics, how dare we enjoy our team scoring bangers and not appreciating the underlying statistics behind it
