    RIP Sir Bobby Charlton :(
  2. John Motson has died

    So sad RIP Motty :(
  3. Nicola Sturgeon and Scottish Independence

    She's been bouyed in her views by disaffected Labour voters who, following the 2014 referendum, thought they could safely make a point. The next GE should sort that out I reckon.
  4. Queen Elizabeth II | 1926-2022 | Rest in Peace

    The most famous woman on the planet. A sad loss. RIP
  5. Queen Elizabeth II | 1926-2022 | Rest in Peace

    First president she met as Queen was Dwight D Eisenhower born 1890
  6. Are Utd Making You Depressed?

    The fact that people care, and show up week in week out means the business model works and so nothing will change. A large dose of apathy is what is needed. Threaten the revenue streams and something might happen.

  11. Winston Churchill

    I agree with this. The protesters, having built up some decent momentum, will shoot themselves in the foot if they continue on that path.
  12. 75 Years Since Hitler's Death

    I think it sad that you have to ask the question ‘is this the VE thread’ and that the only place on this forum that you can post about your brave Grandad is in a thread called 75 years since the death of Hitler. What kind of side show is that? God bless your grandad for giving us the freedom...
  13. SARS CoV-2 coronavirus / Covid-19 (No tin foil hat silliness please)

    When this thing is over I would think there will be enough people in this world who's lives and families have suffered a massive blow because of this. Tapping into that emotion with some negative propaganda regarding the purchasing Chinese products would not be a difficult thing to do. I...
