Kid Icarus

Whenever I've caught them they've created hardly anything but scored their limited chances. Usually unsustainable when teams are like that. Meanwhile we create a lot but are canny wasteful

I very much doubt it like

6 points between 12th and 20th

Unlucky. If it makes you feel any better, I nearly put Salah and Gakpo in, but instead went for MacAllister and Mitoma and made Kane my captain.

They should still win like. As godawful as they are, Forest are tragic away.

So typical of Liverpool this season. Brilliant

The way that they're attempting to seek asylum IS legitimate and has been for 72 years

So surely you're against the government and the BBC trying to determine how Lineker voices his opinion in this case then?

Both of those things, unsurprisingly, aren't actually true, but that's by-the-by, this is a question of free speech. Presumably you'd have a problem with this happening to someone who's said what you just have, who you don't think is a tosser. On that basis alone it's a problem for all of us, regardless of what the actual opinion is.

The commentators not taking part is a huge deal like. The BBC effectively have no choice but to back down or cancel the programme now. Christ, what I'd give for that kind of solidarity among the general population

Overton window and all that. Depending on who you're talking to, the Hard left is now perceived as either largely identity politics obsessives or literally just centrists.

The left doesn't want it destroyed though? It wants it to stop being destroyed as it currently is by being what it should be - truly independent. Seems a bizarre way to frame it, particularly when as you touch on, the right wants it gone and is in the process of literally doing exactly that. The left has literally no power in this whatsoever. The BBC used to be much more impartial than it currently is, and was more impartial than most when it's actually covered events, but I don't think you can say that with a straight face about it anymore. They had Rishi Sunak mocked up in a graphic as Superman ffs

If you honestly think that the BBC is impartial or that it's the 'hard left' that want it to be destroyed, I'm not sure what kind of upside-down la la land you're living in tbh.

Also worth remembering that there was no problem with this impartiality from the very same person, on the same platform, under the same set of cunts governing the country. I can't for the life of me imagine why.

I'd be extremely surprised if it was in Lineker's contract, but not the likes of Alan Sugar and Emily Maithis's, who have regularly been aggressively politically impartial while working for the BBC. Anyone, ANYONE, left or right thinking this is fine because they don't like Lineker is a fool. You, your views, and the people you do like are next on the menu.

Fiona Bruce would absolutely do it like, she was defending domestic abuse on their behalf the other night.

Win win for the Tories in the long run as well. Watch the BBC and you get a barage of right wing slanted drivel, boycott it and they can claim it's unprofitable and can be sold off/wound up.

I generally think Lineker's a well-meaning but naive and sheltered pillock where politics is concerned - particularly after his own hand-wringing over Corbyn being "too radical" (likely due to his realisation that his bank balance would have been affected imo) - but obviously I'm completely with him on this one. It was only a few years ago that the idea of calling our government fascists was deemed wildly hysterical, I don't think that can be claimed anymore, nor do I think Lineker's comparison with '30s Germany is at all inaccurate. For some you can't draw a comparison unless you already have the hindsight of where it lead in that example, which I think is wrong and more importantly not really relevant imo.

Gold is the tackiest thing going on football tops

My guess is that it's a ghost/orphan page, meaning that adidas deleted it years ago but it was never unpublished, meaning that it's still out there and accessible if you have the direct address. Because it's on the adidas domain it'll still get all of the site wide updates at the top so it looks new.

It's existed since May 2020 in its current format, so I wouldn't get too excited. There's no reason for a page like that to exist in its published form until right before the shop/online shop opens either.

He's not wrong about it needing to be independent and not about any one person or group like, we all say that on here. Whether the Trust have earned a reputation for cronyism fairly or unfairly, it's definitely there. Many on here will have experienced first hand just how poisonous some of these alterior-motived individuals are to our collective cause, often having been welcomed in with open arms.

Shame that both can't lose

Playing Doris Day at ear splitting volume, man Surely that was an eye-opener for Eales. Not advocating getting rid of him either, someone should just maybe have a word.
