I think they can get away with the 9-1 tbh, isn't it their club's record win? And against their bitter rivals too. I mean I feel no shame about it or whatever but I get that it's something that they would cling on to. The 6 in a row bit makes way less sense to me. At least two of those games they were lucky as fuck, and as others have said, if it had been the other way around, I don't think I would have given it a moment's thought beyond just thinking "huh, that's an interesting statistic". I would be, and am, far more interested in our rival (if you can even call them that) club being relegated into oblivion.

I have one but really it's just to have a footprint for people to be able to contact me through. I don't do anything with it whatsoever apart from check messages. The data thing is disturbing if you think too much about it but really, they know fucking everything already man - we're trying to close the stable door after the horse has bolted now.

That sounds like the sort of thing that, if I said it, you woulda jumped down my throat for

what do we think it probably is? I appreciate that photo is taken probably when 2-0 down, but it honestly doesn't look like there's more than 2000 tops at the far side... less than 10k in the stadium based on that?

Just watched the goal clips. Those players don't give a fuck, clearly. And ffs they don't even have any fans there. It's a sea of empty seats. The whole club is basically screaming "Kill me now".

Don't generally have a lot of time for Owen but fucking hell he ripped them a new one there. Top marks.

Is it meant to be a joke in a really obvious way, or have they just dropped it into a report without comment?

Trying to work out why "certain posters" jump on your comments...

Not jealous of their fans for the away trip...

The Guardian published an article the other day one how it could be that Putin is testing how much solidarity remains in the West, and I could maybe see it from that point of view. The UK having isolated itself from all of its friends thanks to Brexit and Trump, it does make sense to target us. Kinda worrying though, if we become the testing ground for what Putin can and can't get away with. Suddenly starting to think that Trident may be worthwhile after all...

If he had done it in the US then fair enough, but the UK? We're fucking nobodies. And moreover, the guy is still alive. How does that make him look good? In fairness I don't know his chances or how long this is supposed to take, but still. What if the West responded by pulling their teams out of the WC? He'd look like a fucking idiot. What if we clamped down on the oligarchs? For the sake of winning an election, is it worth it? And also - if we know that he's doing this, why are we even bothering to respond? We're giving him exactly what he wants, and nothing we're doing is remotely meaningful in hurting him. So are we not just playing to his tune?

Enlighten me?

When did this board get so sensitive?

What do you mean by steps? The ones taken to confirm that the stuff came from Russia? I'm fairly sure that we won't yet have any definitive proof of this tbh. And tbh, I suspect that it has come from Russia - even though I still don't understand why a failed assassination attempt that causes an international custerfuck before they host a world cup, using a chemical that they know will be traced back to them, and while they are running an election, is in any way a desirable outcome for them.

Yep. Certainly there's enough doubt in there to make it worth having someone in parliament actually ask that due process is followed anyway. And I am yet to see any evidence that has been circulated to the public on why there is irrefutable proof that this came from Russia, especially since that article notes that the last time the nerve agent was used, it was because samples had been stolen from a lab It's as if all of a sudden, on this issue, we are supposed to trust the Tories. And I'm ready to do so, once the international body in charge of assessing this stuff agrees with them.

My understanding is that Huddersfields preferred style is aggressive and attacking. If so, we should beat them fairly comfortably.

Questions being raised about how likely Russia is to be behind the attack. Credible sounding people as well, like the guy involved in site visits to decommission the thing in the first place, and other chemwep experts. So clearly there are some people besides Corbyn who think that this isn't yet fully conclusive. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/mar/15/uks-claims-questioned-doubts-emerge-about-source-of-salisburys-novichok

BF1 I played on PS4 - was enjoyable enough but idk, I prefer my shooters to be story driven campaigns, not just large open ended shoot ups. PUBG I just don't get the long term appeal of, as mentioned elsewhere. Same problem as BF1 for me. Did play a few rounds of it though, and I guess it was good fun while it lasted. Not sure I see it as a shooter though, more a survival game with shooting in it. CS:GO I haven't played but seems to have a huge following and many of the serious gamers who play RL also seem to play this. Overwatch I just can't get into. I don't understand the appeal on any level, weirdly Destiny 2 is an option on PC now as well btw.

I wonder what the odds on that last bit would be.

Wow! Nice one Love the soundtrack too...

She's probably right though. I am curious actually, what it is that all these MPs are looking for us to do. We are a nothing country now. Russia could have dropped a bomb in central London and we still probably wouldnt go to war over it.

Yes, I understood that the first time you said it.

In terms of politics, Corbyn is an utter fuckwit who is generally a PR nightmare, and doesn't appear to have a solid grasp of swift decision making outside of his key principles, and cannot command respect throughout his party. Now that we've established what I think about Corbyn as a politician, I can say with cards on the table that I don't see what it is that he has done wrong here.

Ok, great. So presumably she told him this in response, and everyone just kinda wondered why he bothered asking when he already knew. Or the other scenario, everyone lost their shit because a man suggested we comply with our international obligations. Presumably he had some reason to ask her again, but whether it was a good one or not, it's hardly "shameful" or whatever he's being accused of. Hardly "pro-Russia" either. "Pro-international law" maybe.

Ah ok - have I missed the bit where the relevant international body has received the samples, considered the evidence, drawn it's conclusions, and has presented its findings to the UN? Because if I have missed that, then fair enough.
