  1. I mean, I did say there were teams that operate out of the UK if you read everything. Red Bull another. But what do you expect anyone opposing Saudi Investment in a World Championships such as F1 to do? Should they be outside the headquarters of every manufacturer in the UK? Manufacturers who have no say in who hosts races? Get a group round McLaren headquarters. And so by that extension should they also visit the manufacturers of all the other teams around the world? Or round the houses of any F1 driver that lives in the UK? Would make sense really. And then the homes of all the other drivers in all the the countries? It's just ridiculous to say "well they aren't protesting against F1 as much". And it's really not fucking hard to see why it's ridiculous. It's just whataboutism and looking for an excuse to delegitimise their protesting. Which, again, isnt a good look.
  2. Its not odd at all really, when you consider the organisation. The Saudi PIF purchased an organisation operating in the UK. With a UK residence and UK representation. ~ F1 is a world championships governed by the FIA which is headquartered in France. It has no real UK presence apart from the fact some teams work out of the UK, some drivers were born here and a track here is one of the ones used in the calendar. Yet you're expecting to hear their opposition to investment to the FIA governed world championships here in England, as much as you heard them opposing the takeover of an English institution? When the organisation is relevant to pretty much the entire globe? It makes nothing but sense that we hear opposition to our takeover louder than opposition to RSA involvement in F1. Considering everything that needs considering.
  3. Well, in 3 posts you've suggested he had no interest in the human suffering of people in Yemen, alluded to the fact he lacked integrity by asking a relevant question, and claimed he must hold infinitely higher standards to that you think he (or anyone else) has previously held in order to be included in the debate at all. Not exactly a glowing endorsement is it. Because he asked a relevant question.
  4. Does he have to be asking it for him? You're coming up with quite a few wild excuses to condemn a journalist for asking a simple question. Do you think yours or my interest in the plight of the Yemeni people are greater or more virtuous than his? Let the man in a role ask a question that is going to be asked and accept it. The alternative as Rich said is him not asking it, which is infinitely more unpalatable.
  5. Pleeeease. So people can only ask questions of a development if they've asked questions previously? Maybe we should ask the CCP to help us with our new firewall.
  6. He can stay if he doesnt condone random and homophobic abuse against a person. For no good reason. Not that there ever is a good reason. If he wants to post shit like that from now on he can do it from Twitter. I'm certainly not wanting to see it again on here, so it's his choice. He's making nonsense up to defend that abuse. "He's jealous of the takeover so the abuse is justified" Fuck off. That abuse is to be condemned by NUFC fans and rightly called out for what it is.
  7. Not standing for this shit, like. You can take your horrific takes off here permanently and spend your time on twitter where they belong.
  8. Not a fucking chance these lads did the bleep test under Bruce.
  9. Surely Brooks will be a consideration.
  10. Good news. Happy this is confirmed. Forward we go. Are we having a vote about what we're going to collectively shit our pants over next or we just going to let it materialise naturally?
  11. Took me about 10 years to properly recover from my worst (and obviously last) one.
  12. Whos commentating here? Its not Carragher is it?
  13. He was in the stands in our delegation yeaterday, man. Have people been taking dodgy shrooms or something? Last time i was around panic like this the wall was melting and my watch kept changing wrists.
  14. Man if Villa go for Lampard and Terry... I'm sure they wont, like, but just reading there the great football minds of Jamie O'Hara and Carlton Cole putting Villas downturn in form to Terry leaving in the Summer.
  15. How Everton can be restricted in their spending due to FFP and put a starting 11 out like that is outrageous really.
  16. That's because the other managers dont have a weasely little son scouring social media for nasty things said about Daddy to cry about in the press so they remember he's a "football pundit"
  17. Think Ive just recovered a week after. Did not expect to struggle so much. Need to re-evaluate my fitness
