Constant snide comments? Bitter and obsessed but pretend you aren’t? And then deluded comments like this that ‘clearly’ need calling out but then you get all butt-hurt and insulting whenever anyone does?

Succes in Netherlandish can mean good luck. So, obviously, under the pressure cooker environment of a foreign press conference, “great success” clearly meant “hugely lucky”. Dutch being such an economical language, the meaning I’m deducing ‘between the lines’ is this: ten Haag: “that...

I find your faux 'outrage' disingenuous, it takes about 5 seconds to answer the OP's original question - https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/liverpool-fans-anthem-boris-johnson-b2080656.html Quote: "The booing is a cry for justice, for equality, a howl against hunger...

Well said, Jeff. Several issues in the thread are being conflated, though, in my opinion, and could all be doing with separate analysis. About the Blackpool player - Good on the lad, but I do fear for him as him being elevated to this position, it just makes him a target and if it's not...

"Ben Ik Van Duitsen Bloed"* - How did that survive the Second World War? I always found the Netherlands Medieval in many respects and the Dutch overwhelmingly obsequious and servile when it came to their royal family, especially considering prince Bernhard's Nazi/SS career, Lockheed scandal...

Yes, if you agree with Fascism. Real Madrid are the original and model for state sponsored sports washing and the original and biggest financial dopers. In the words of Fernando Castiella Minister of Foreign Affairs under Franco from 1957 until 1969: "Real Madrid is a style of sportsmanship...

Jeez when does the double negatives stop

Vlaamse frites in the vernacular. We call them FREEDOM FRIES! Royale with cheese?

This will make it easier for everyone: Toughest run to the CL final in the history of the world ever: Manchester United Easiest run to the CL final in the history of the world ever: Liverpool F.C. There.

Now I've had time to consider all the arguments, it's cats that are in fact the problem and need canceling / deplatforming: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_predation_on_wildlife

Just my two cents: The over-reaction is astounding. What did he actually do? It was a bit of deft skill, breaking the cats fall and sending it across the floor with a well-timed sweep. It's not like he volleyed its head off or punched it off a wall. The cat wasn't even injured. Yes, it doesn't...

We need to get the new analytics team on this. I've been thinking, we could put a team together, a surveyor, a statistician, a physics teacher and a meteorologist. The surveyor could set out some theodolites and laser meters. The scientist could set up some light boxes and prisms to accurately...
