"He’s shown throughout his career that he’s an excellent manager.’"

 

Fucking... What could possibly be more wrong that this? "if Oscar Pistorious has shown one thing through his career it's that he has a full and complete set of human limbs" would only tie with it.

Urgh! Fucking sick of managers saying nice things about the useless sack of shit.  Wish someone would just come out and be honest "aye, he's a bit shite like, dunno how hes lasted this long."

You can see every game with the way he goes on with managers before and after games that he loves to be liked. No surprise any manager comes out with anything but nice words, as I bet he rings all of them several times during a season, just for friendly mate chats.

The ‘expectation’ shite being trotted out again is the most galling. 

Being a Premier League manager is one of the cushiest jobs in the world.  Spit out bullshit cliches, never get challenged on any comments you make and to top it off if you are so shit at your job at to get sacked you get millions.

Scumbag landlord will love those comments. If it wasn’t absolutely nailed on already we’ll roll over and get tickled tomorrow night.

The atom, derived from a Greek word that translates loosely into "that which cannot be divided," is widely considered to the the fundamental unit of all matter. Atoms consist of subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons, with the former two residing in the nucleus of the atom and accounting for almost all of its mass, and electrons confined to orbitals on the edge of the atom. The number of protons in naturally occurring atoms ranges from 1 to 92; these different atoms correspond to elements, which have different electrochemical properties owing to their varying masses and the unique arrangement of their tiny constituent particles in space.

 

The Atom

Atoms are extremely small particles and cannot be divided further except by extraordinary means. Think of the pieces that make up a jigsaw puzzle. These can technically be separated into smaller pieces of cardboard and paper by destroying them, but for practical purposes, these pieces are the fundamental, indivisible elements of jigsaw puzzles.

Atoms consist of protons, which carry a positive electrical charge; electrons, which carry a negative charge; and neutrons, which carry no charge. Thus in an ordinary, electrically neutral atom, the number of protons and the number of electrons is equal.

 

The atomic mass of an atom is approximately equal to the number of protons plus the number of electrons, since the mass of electrons is practically negligible.

The Proton

The proton is, in effect, the index particle of any atom. It is the number of protons in an atom that determines the identity of the element an atom belongs to; in other words, if two atoms have a different number of protons, they are not the same element.

 

The number of protons in an element determines its atomic number, Z. Hydrogen is the lightest element and has one proton (Z = 1); uranium is the heaviest naturally occurring element and has 92 protons (Z = 92). Each proton, which is assigned a mass of 1.00728 atomic mass units (amu), has a charge designated as +1.

Atoms can exist with only a proton in their nucleus, as is the case with hydrogen atoms. A nucleus without at least one accompanying proton, however, is not an atom.

The Neutron

 

Neutrons are similar in size to protons, with an amu of 1.00867, and also inhabit the nucleus of atoms. The number of neutrons in an atom in an element's most stable configuration is usually greater than the number of protons, with this disparity becoming larger as atomic number increases. A hydrogen atom, for example, has a proton but no neutrons, while a helium atom has two of each. Tin, on the other hand, has 50 protons and 69 neutrons, while uranium has 92 and 146 respectively.

The number of protons plus neutrons in an atom is its mass number, M. Thus the number of neutrons in an atom is its atomic mass number minus its atomic number, or M – Z.

If an atom gains or loses neutrons, it remains the same element but becomes an isotope of that element. Different isotopes are identified by appending M to the upper left corner of the abbreviation for that element. For example, 14C is an isotope of carbon (Z = 6) that has eight neutrons rather than the usual six.

 

The Electron

Electrons are tiny (0.000549 amu), negatively charged particles that are described as orbiting the protons and neutrons that make up an atom's nucleus, in the manner of planets orbiting the sun. This is a rough description at best, however, as advances in quantum physics have led to the concept of discrete orbitals about the nucleus between which electrons may "jump." These orbitals correspond to different electromagnetic energy levels and are given names such as s, p, d and f. The motion of electrons stems from their having a charge of -1 and being attracted to the positively charged nucleus.

Normally, the number of electrons in an atom is equal to Z, making these atoms neutral in overall charge. Some atoms have different numbers of protons and electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge. These atoms are called ions.

So your response to Wullie ridiculing the pure la-la-land that is the takeover thread, is to spam the forum with posts that are factually accurate and non-fantastical for a change? Interesting.

He’s got you there. :lol:

Leicester have been quite remarkable this season and you have to tip your hat to them.

If we're at our best, we're capable of beating good teams but, like many teams in this division, we struggle to find that consistency.

I should be amazed not one NE Journo has said anything on the Slum Landlord issue, but then I remember they're all mates with him. What's letting a woman's kids go sick if he spends that money he saves on a lunch for you?

He's just said on this SSN the utter bellend!

"Can we get close to where we were last year, the accumulation of points, we had 45 points with 5 games to go and tailed away last year"

Wasn't top half his target? Cretin!

We ended up with 44 points didn't we?

Yep, just him lying again. Standard fare. We had 43 points with five games left, and finished on 44.

So funny how the lies are manufactured to elevate us from properly rubbish to just unimpressive. Sums him up really. 

"We'd have had an alright season had we not tailed off at the end. Was only that pesky tailing-off at the end which did us." 

Dimwit.

His lack of attention to detail is really fucking annoying. He always exaggerates and comes across as details don't matter. Which then cvery clearly shows in how poorly we're managed.

Just four inspiring article headlines I saw this morning from Bruce:

"Forward planning is tough"

"The players are running on empty"

"Players can't wait for a break"

"We can still match last season.."

Excuse after excuse and an insult to fans intelligence. This is our manager and leader of our club.

Not defending Bruce but he could mean mentally which is probably fair but that would apply for everyone in the country.

Usual mix of tedious clichés which barely make sense and depressing, defeatist, uninspiring wank, from what I've read on the Chron. Also he's pleased for Rodgers specifically because he's British, so a bit of Brexit bingo in there for good measure also. Also not planning contact renewals or transfer activity until we're safe, apparently. All good stuff, next season can't come soon enough.

Still the wrong message to give publicly though. The players will get their break soon enough, the season's still running. They can take their holidays and do their mental reset during the summer break like the rest of us.

:bruce:We're knackered, we're struggling to cope, we just want it to end...

 

Striking fear into the hearts of every other team.
