@FutOffsides ok, thank you. Why haven't the showed the digital image 'down the line' angle? That would perhaps make it clearer. The image they've used makes Foden look well onside.
@davidcoldwell@woolyanna Boring though innit. Boxing is meant to be entertaining. Could've at least played along and give the fans something to cheer on. Instead of trying to be Mr Cool and saving face. Surely he's past that now after the amount of losses he's had. Disappointingly bland.
Once upon a time, not in some mythical golden age, but a perfectly normal Scotland about 20 years ago , basic things just worked.
Getting your child into the local school wasn’t a battle.
Getting a house didn’t require a decade of luck, debt, and divine intervention.
Starting a business didn’t feel like trying to open a lemonade stand in North Korea.
Finding a parking space didn’t require tactical planning and a support team.
And getting a same‑day GP appointment didn’t feel like winning the national lottery.
So what changed? @theSNP happened.
We didn’t suddenly become less capable, less ambitious, or less deserving.
The system did. It got slower, heavier, more bureaucratic, more expensive, and far more interested in managing decline than delivering improvement.
We’ve normalised waiting lists, shortages, excuses, and “be grateful for what you get.”
We’ve gone from a country that quietly got on with things to a country that can barely keep the basics functioning.
The question isn’t what changed.
It’s why we’re still pretending this is acceptable.

@TurkTalksFC Imagine being so gullible you think these players didn't have even a sip of water before a Premier League game. My goodness, the naivety of some people is incredible.
@DougieCritchley The arbiter of which delays are boo-able enters the room. Its shite, and everyone knows its shite. There's a 15 minute break at half time, eat and drink then!
@DaleJohnsonBBC@Matthew79421198 Only because he fouled in the first place. Requires nuance and equitable interpretation of the rules. It's like unjust enrichment in law. He benefitted from his foul despite not actually denying the goal. There's always more than one way to interpret rules.
@gunnerpunner So one hand they accept he can't benefit from doing a foul himself, but in the end did benefit from succeeding in preventing City scoring a third goal. The law of equity would say he must 'come with clean hands', then we can say it was 50/50 no foul and goal given. Everyone happy
@gunnerpunner The logic feels circular though. They didn't give the free kick to Liverpool because Slob was only in the position to be fouled because he had fouled a moment earlier. Akin to the law of unjust enrichment. The interpretation of the rules is the problem.
