Looks like a shitty, flashy version of the Prestige meets Ocean's 11.

I won't try to beat my customary political drum too much given that this is a topic that inflates the forum and a lot of users have a direct stake in the outcome of this horrendous conflict, but I do believe this is a case of government creating a conflict without the consent of its populace. As someone who sees the future of democratic diplomacy involving some sort of recognized values of global citizenship and global human rights in order to keep international relations smooth in the long-term, I feel that clasping onto national identity and battering down the hatches of statehood has escalated the troubles here. It's all about governmental control of land at the end of the day, it's about power-seeking states and not about the people who are getting caught in the crossfire.

When politics starts becoming less about constructing a civil society and protecting citizens and becomes more about casually-based point-scoring, you know you've got a serious problem; and I am completely against American and European nations meddling around in the affairs of other nations.

I agree, that criticism made no sense whatsoever.

You implicitly claimed that it was purely because he played for Liverpool that people think he's a cunt.

So you think if Luis Suarez played for Manchester United or Chelsea, his diving and cheating exploits wouldn't be brought to everyone's attention?

If only he were good enough to make Liverpool relevant for anything other than derision.

America is also an established country, so in terms of the pulling power of general life as a celebrity sportsperson, living in New York or Los Angeles is a much better prospect than other lesser leagues with less desirable locations that offer more money.

The Swedish model has worked out just fine for us.

Letting the employers and the unions establish the salary structure through collective bargaining make a whole lot more sense than having a group of politicians setting some national limit.

I really don't see why an electrician should have the same minimum wage as a waiter or why someone in Barnsley should have the same minimum wage as someone in London.


That's exactly why we're trying to get a living wage which is a far more proportionate means of establishing a national level.

He could just come back and play a motivational/inspirational role. Doesn't really have to make more than a few substitute appearances, unless there's an injury crisis or a major loss of form in a few of your strikers.

Man Utd fans whinging?

Shut up.


That's literally the sole purpose of a football forum.

I can't see Scholes and Giggs playing beyond this season; they're great players, but now they slow our game down so much. I'd much rather have an Anderson or a Cleverley in middle that occasionally give the ball away but at least have some fucking urgency about them.

It would have been a real cracker if Adebayor had stayed on, because Spurs' only problem was numbers in the final third. Could have been a 5-4.

Churchill's indirect massacre of millions of Indians is probably more worthy as a reason for him to be down the list. Clement Attlee built the UK and brought it into the modern age, whilst Thatcher did her best for sell off the country's assets to the highest bidder, often with the support of public funds anyway. Our rail and bus systems are pathetic in comparison with our European counterparts, the private gas companies are currently under investigation for a Libor-style rigging of the prices because of the free-market nonsense that she instigated, and she was also a homophobic racist.

For more information as to why she is as risible a politician as she was a human being:

Diving is so prevalent nowadays so as to be expected. Shouting at a player for diving is about as useful and as smart as shouting at the ball for going out for a corner.

It would be a shame to see him leave and fulfill his potential elsewhere, but if a good offer comes in January and we can bring in a replacement, I won't be gutted if and when Nani goes.

Why they don't rate is beyond me, but this is typical of American shows. They do well, they get a captive audience, they get offered more of a budget, they use the bigger budget, but their audience numbers remain static, network doesn't understand why more money doesn't equal more viewers and then they pull it off the air.

This is the most important election for a while. If Romney loses, then the Republicans will start looking at more centrist candidates in future.

If Scottish football does fail, then it will end up being Rangers' fault anyway because they were run by a bunch of fucking crooks.

Blame the government.


Well, New Labour.

To be fair, I'd rather we were slightly too PC then as bad as it was in the 1980's for ethnic minorities and homosexuals when it came to legal protection from verbal harassment.
