Is TheBatman Southgate? That post is legendary. Completely ignores that the main ingredient of success is the squad at their disposal. Southgate has been carried by a massively talented squad, alongside a few great players, some nice tournament draws, and finally with the fact there’s not a huge...

I couldn’t read in after you compared Rio to Carra and Souness to Sir Alex. They’ve never been compared on the same level in my memory.

VDB £40 in 2020 Mata £37 2014 Jones £16m 2011 These players were a lot of money for their time. They weren’t some random bargain. Phil Jones transfer was huge for a relative unknown youngster.

Well that’s really where the justice system comes in. It takes the opinions of mere mortals such as you or I, both of whose opinions on this relationship are likely true or untrue in equal parts, and puts it beyond reasonable doubt. At which point societal, contractual and ultimately penal...

No, those who are not convicted are not guilty.

Happy for you to just quote the sentence I wrote in full: “withdrew her evidence and claims and decided to raise a child and marry him”

I don’t disagree with anything you’ve said. I just stick to my point about those opinions being formed from an isolated social media post. Yes they’ve said nothing and that could be a red flag. Or it could be a family which wants to move on from a terrible and possibly isolated incident that was...

He wasn’t let off on a technicality. The prosecution withdrew their case due to a lack of evidence. Primarily because his girlfriend, the victim, withdrew her evidence and claims and decided to raise a child and marry him. Your last sentence is precisely the issue I have with the whole...

Agree with your comments around clubs having some moral standards. They should ultimately be a stalwart of the local community and wider society. My issue in this case is with the trial by social media and the lack of any fair and reasoned trial in a court of law. Whilst I’ve no doubt that there...

Difference is nobody outside Utd gives a feck about the Glaziers. Plenty of people have an opinion on Mason though. I’m not saying that’s right, I believe he should come back. He won’t though

He was class. Hilarious that someone thinks Del Piero was better.

Done

Agree with this.He must be looking around and seeing minutes being earned ahead of him from Sancho/Anthony as a massive frustration to say the least. I kind of understand Anthony as he’s a workhorse too, but don’t get Sancho being ahead of him. Was great today when he came on. Gave us a bit to...

Sorry but your post is confusing! Are you for or against helmets in football? I think the reasons there is little discussion around this are two fold. 1. It would completely change and likely ruin the game. Headering the ball with a helmet would be a bullet. It would also mean aerial battles...

Pavel Nedved was pretty class into his 30’s. Picked up a ballon d’or at 31.
