  2. Ratboy FLL (man of the people) sounds like he needs antidepressants watching his Mancs tonight.
  3. Quite nice seeing a player like Szoboslai replaced by a player like Gravenberch. Last season - you will not be missed.
  4. I'm not old enough to have seen him play in his career, but old enough to see him play at Tommy Smith's testimonial. I remember Clem going up front and Emlyn Hughes going in goal. Charlton got played through on goal and Crazy Horse looked towards the Kop in fear - the Kop's 'woooah' making his plight worse. It's probably a failing memory but I'm sure Hughes was making out like he was biting his nails in fear. Anyway, Charlton made like he was winding up to let loose one of his cannonball shots, then slowed down, took pity on Hughes and tapped it to him.
  5. Any passing thought, that any average person will have when observing an event, will take Faisal Islam days of drooling and severe agonizing headaches to recognise.
  6. That's not what I said at all. Nice straw man argument, though.
  7. No, the least that should be offered is constructive and effective solutions, not just empty gestures and platitudes.
  8. I'm not disagreeing with the fact that aboriginal people need to be in charge of their welfare and ambitions, far from it. It's the appalling lack of thought that went into this empty vessel of a referendum. It's simplistic to attribute the result just to Aussie racism. Albanese expected people to vote for a blank cheque and it seems many were worried about that. He was in charge of this and he's been lazy as fuck with the detail. If the Yes vote was serious about improving aboriginal people's lives they should have put some critical thought into it. Now all they've done is ruin a promising opportunity and set the cause back years.
  9. And there is the glaring error in the referendum. Even Lidia Thorpe voted against it because it had no substance. Apparently, aboriginal people get 3 x the money spent on them yet they are still living in poverty with no hope of employment. That suggests a vast weakness in the system that is continuing to fail them. Maybe the Aussie govt should do a bit more thinking about what is going wrong, in detail, rather than making vague well-meaning gestures?
  10. That's no sort of punishment for such egregious FFP violations though, is it? Imagine it had been a less incompetent board/ club like say, oh any in the PremierLeague, and they'd committed the same shenangans as the Bitters but had actually built a half decent team on the back of that - something middling like Brentford or Villa. They could take the hit of 6-8 points and still be safe in the PL because they thought "what would the Everton board do?" and took it as a yardstick for what stupid grandiose shit to avoid doing. They would have massively benefitted without any sanction that would hurt their long term plans. The only fit and proper punishment is relegation. I'm not suggesting that they be kicked out of the Football League and down to the Conference, but to ensure that the class and dignity of the Premier League is upheld it should definitely be a punsihment between relegation from PL and say total oblivion. Anyone with a Corinthian bone in their body can see that.
