You presumably mean by supplying funding and materiel or do you have evidence Emiratis are in Darfur organising and executing the massacres? That's a genuine question, by the way. I am willing to learn. My pitchfork is in the garden shed, but it is sharpened .... Maybe we have different...

And if they donated money to any of the political parties who are at fault? You know they all do it. We could call them Associated Party Transactions so they are all culpable.

It is clearly politics and war as well as geopolitics and genocide. The UAE has every right to protect its strategic interests in Sudan by supporting a particular side. No problem at all with that. What we don't know is to what extent, if any, they are involved in the genocide (I am assuming...

Interesting that that is your reaction. My morals are entirely consistent - they don't bend with the latest news story, and certainly not under pressure from a fucking football forum. I am leaving my pitchfork in the garden shed for now but will see if any future reputable news changes that...

Who the fuck is iTsAnToOnY and why should I read anything by a guy with a handle like that? Serious question, by the way, I am happy I read anything that adds to my knowledge.

Good work :)

It was in the fucking City forum. And then it wasn't. Why? Because it's fuck all to do with football. Here in the Off-Topic politics is the place for useless moralising.

Knock yourself out. Just do it somewhere else.

"....but this was perfectly natural and nothing to be ashamed of because no one was really poor – at least no one worth speaking of."

And the deliberate obstruction of people genuinely trying to play the ball by people pretending they are moving towards the ball but actually not even looking at it. It's a foul every time and needs to be given as such every single time. Fucking Arsenal would never score.

I thought he was OK. At least, he was consistently bad which, I suppose, is as much as you can expect these days. He let a lot go, but he did it consistently for both sides. I suspect if you check the Swansea forum they will be complaining he let loads of City fouls go ....

Allowing Arsenal to rush and block the goalkeeper and defenders is so obviously a tactic and so obviously against the interest of the game it must have been decided to allow it. I can't imagine they would be doing it much if all their goals from corners were disallowed for ten games or so for...

:) Easy tiger. It's morning in Thailand, but I will admit I forgot the clock change in the UK, so it wasn't that late. And let's not forget you started the this and that with the back pass rule change. Once again, keepers wouldn't be fannying around waiting for a yellow if they had already got...

So book him the first time he does it with ten minutes to go. You can't book him if he isn't doing it .... Contrary to popular belief, referees and, for that matter, fans aren't stupid and know when a goalkeeper is wasting time. Just use the rules as they are. The backpass rule was more than...

60th minute, winning one-nil and under pressure, keeper grabs the ball, lies on the ground for ages, bounces it twenty times, pretends to throw it short, kicks the post, then waves everyone upfield, walks around. Ref gives him a yellow for timewasting. 90+ minutes, he doesn't do it again. And...

How many keepers waste more time after they have already been booked for it? As for the booking, if the referee doesn't add more time on at the end, that is because he is a poor referee, not because the existing rule is wrong.

They will say it was a factual call, so clear and obvious doesn't come into it. It's all bollocks.

Let's just apply the laws of the game as they are and book the fuckers if they are time wasting, rather than put new laws out the referees can choose to apply or not. Book them and they don't do it again. It's that simple. By the way, this second yellow VAR thing: goalkeeper timewastes, gets...

A one-l Philips is a priest, a two-l Phillips is a beast, And I will bet my silk pyjama, there is no three-l Philllips.

It doesn't matter, really. They can re-appoint her and then kick her out, if they want, after the 115 goes tits-up for them. Which it inevitably will.
