    That element is a conspiracy but it’s a widely popular one because the circumstances, evidence, numerous testimonies, and historical precedent are no less lacking in evidence than verifiably true conspiracies like Iran contra, cointelpro, watergate, paperclip etc. Antisemites will believe it solely because they’re antisemites and it helps their conspiracy theory, but that doesn’t make it the driver for why it's widely believed. In a lot of ways antisemites undermining it only serves for people to be flippant about something that’s very credible.

    What's antisemitic about it? Maxwell was a Mossad agent, that's not a conspiracy theory or even controversial.
  3. My replacement in large arrived and I'm much happier with it. Was proper chuffed with it, went to see my lass and was like 'Everyone's jealous of my cute little outfit. I know you say I look better in baggier clothes, but you have to admit that this is a better fit in large than it was in extra large' Took one look at me and just went 'no' - like not even a laugh after it. Absolute bitch
  4. Rich by name and yet so poor by nature
  5. If that is the amount they're asking and his contract ends next year they're either deluded or it's shorthand for 'not for sale'
  6. Bruno Guimarães: £100M release clause: expires at midnight (Various)
  7. For the sake of argument, if we'd sold Wilson for the same amount we'd bought DCL for (let's say £20m) would the people who don't rate him at all (presumably including his Ancelotti years) still be saying it's a shit deal?
  8. Depends on why we've pulled out (if we have) really. Whether it was a great signing or not probably would have come down to the fee, so if they were insistant on the £37m and we've walked away then that's fair enough. Anything below £25m and I think it would have been a good signing.
  9. That's certainly one way of putting it. Another would be when he was playing regularly in a good team, with an excellent manager he scored 15 in 41, at just over 1 in 2 per 90 (a goal every 200 mins), then 21 in 39, at better than 1 in 2 per 90 (a goal every 158 mins) Either side of that he was a kid, then injured and playing in a terrible team. As willing back up strikers go, this is probably as good as it gets
  10. We avoided relegation at a canter, were in top 4 form for the entirety of his time here in which he played regularly, but because he's a shite finisher for some that's all that's relevant.
  11. Rightly so, and tbf, it's not just the Gordon stick, it's the Pope stick, what's looking likely to be the Hall stick, what could be the Barnes stick and to an extent the Livramento stick. Meanwhile, some of the players this forum has had the most clamour for since the takeover: Lodi, Paqueta, Maddison, Diaby, Targett, Szbozslai, Minteh. Hardly a list of players who've gone on to all-star status. Pope and especially Gordon should have been lessons in humility for our fans, but nah, so many just jumping straight back head first into the assertion over Howe's nose for talent that Calvert-Lewin is bang average and Minteh's a wonderkid.
  12. Some of our fans are mental and never learn a single lesson do they?
  13. Nice to see Schar getting some love. The funny thing about all these negative posts is that you could be talking about either match
  14. If I don't survive watching these matches, tell my wife "hello."

    I saw this the other week. Was completely surreal seeing Mark Lawrenson correctly answering what happened to Robert Maxwell while scrolling through tiktok.

    At best he's torn it up in Eridivisie. He could end up being great, he could be a flop. Where he's played doesn't really give any indication of what the outcome will be vs other leagues. Shame we haven't seen him get a chance but if Howe doesn't fancy him for whatever reason and we can make a profit to get someone in that he does fancy, sobeit. He and the club will live and die by these decisions. Going on like this is a Salah, KDB situation isn't really based on anything.
  17. They were seeking £60m for Gordon, they're seeking £80m for Braithwaite. No reason to believe £37m would be the fee.
  18. Round 3 Switzerland 1-1 Germany Scotland 2-1 Hungary Albania 1-3 Spain Croatia 1-2 Italy Netherlands 1-2 Austria France 2-0 Poland England 2-0 Slovenia Denmark 2-1 Serbia Slovakia 1-2 Romania Ukraine 1-2 Belgium Czechia 1-2 Turkey Georgia 0-2 Portugal
