It depends whose strengths you play too? If you get the ball quickly to the striker then Haaland any day of the week. If you spend all day stretching and probing the opposition before getting the ball to the stiiker then Aguero. If its a mix and match then Haaland. Also Haaland is a much better...

Was ot worthwhile to sacrifice 1 million in dead and injured for piss all (0.72%) of Ukraine from 2023 to 2026? https://www.dailykos.com/story/2026/1/8/2361807/-ADAPTIVE-INDOMITABLE-UKRAINE-DeepState-s-Area-of-Russian-Occupation-Little-Changed-From-2023

But it makes no difference to the statistics whatsoever so it is pure new Puritanism. Just pissing off the law abiding cItizen and devastating the pub trade. What is the point of doing that? All it does is provide Reform with new raw meat for the angry brigade to vote for them.

More articulate than I could state. But spot on.

And just to prove what a pedant I actually am I ask has lowering the alcohol limit for drivng in Scotland had any affect at all. the answer is not one bit, Nada, Bugger all. So why reduce it...

Let's look at what's happened to the death stats since the 80s. Why have they stopped going down? I'll tell you why. 1. There are a rump of arseholes who will drive pissed whatever the limit. 2. There are fewer cops on the roads to pull over drivers who are showing signs of bad driving...

Lovely retort! A round of applause from me.

I was actually loving the much more frequent quick counter attacking style - it was exciting and resulted in many more goals per attack than what we have played for the last 3 games. Sure play keep and stretch ball if we don't get to have a real chance, but for the last 3 games it's totally...

That is very much a possibility. Therefore hopefully we are simply adjusting to his return and it will be temporary. That said I have rather enjoyed the counter attacking.

You're clearly as much an argumentative type as I am on this point. I'm sure you'll be demanding we all get someone to walk in front of cars carrying a red flag when that rule returns.

The problem is that we've totally reverted to slow build ups that pull and stretch the opposition, but that leads to a packed penalty area and more difficult goal opportunities. Prior to Christmas, we were quite frequently hitting teams quickly on the counter attack and scoring a lot of goals as...

Is that Mauler of the Match... :-D
