He meant “we prefer playing teams who play prettier football and let us play.” The best teams in Germany and Europe let us win.

Also ignores the obvious fact we can play different kinds of game to negate their strengths and exploit their weaknesses.

There’s something to what he said. But we can play different games a) to negate their strengths and also b) to exploit their weaknesses. He might also have noted that we did not designate a player to follow their best player and all over the pitch continually fouling him like Laimer on Saka!

1. No-one seriously thinks that the liberal arts are uniquely ‘noble’. 2. It’s just moronic to claim that learning science teaches you logic (or vice versa).3. If academic courses were market sensitive pure maths and hard science would be the first to ‘exit’. Usual bollox here lacking any evidence.

At least they did not call you a Russian asset. Better to be mentioned than not!

I’d have more respect for the RG if you were not a closed shop lobbying for a bigger slice of the pie.

Roja directa just saying. + Arsenal app

Thanks for the intel. Great tune.

Mine is to find a great full shopping basket, take it, pay for it, and have that evening myself. Eating and drinking stuff Id never have normally bought!

Enoch Burke tho. Sounds like an implausible made up name for a right-wing nutter!

You can play stylish losing football if you want. And be indignant. We did, for the last few years under Wenger. We were a team more winner against than winning. Our current way of playing is more satisfying.

Excellent book. Hrabal is as unrated Kundera is overrated.

What do you think of the relatively poor/indifferent form of Isak, Wurtz, Gyorkeres and to an extent Eze. Is it just hard for new players to hit top form? Is there any difference between so-called Prem ready players- Eze and Isak- and players from other leagues, e.g. Ekitike and Zubi?

All that ‘good natured fun’ the intercity firm had. The Europeans just did not understand the good old British sense of humour.

“Good natured fun” it was not. British clubs banned from European competitions because the Europeans clubs lacked a sense of humour. What an arse Jenrick is.

Football hooliganism in the 70s and 80s was highly coordinated gang violence with strong racist overtones. If the police had put a quick firm end to it the Taylor report wouldn’t have been commissioned and all seater stadiums wouldn’t not have come into existence as a result.

Only Brits. It was my intro to the Noveltones’s ‘left bank 2’.
