That's odd but a nice celebratory piece.

Some of them are still there ffs. Oh the irony. USA abandons Afghanistan to the tender mercies of the Taliban while keeping people imprisoned for being suspected fighters for Afghanistan.Yes, the appalling human rights of the middle east.
Not like there are any owners in the premier league who come from a country that locked people up without trial, in orange boiler suits, just across the border.
Fucking hypocrites!
EDIT PS. There are currently 39 prisoners left in the camp, 27 of which have never been charged with any crime. None of the rest have had a fair trial.

It was pep had the rant. Quite an angry rant.
I'd shoot jj the rat, but this is all on Pep. He wanted it out there in case any of our idiots are thinking along the same lines tomorrow night in a game that means little.
I agree with that. I expect that Walker knows exactly his opinion!
In Guardiolaspeak, the 14 players will be the outfielders only, I think.

I see we have in big white letters written across one of the training pitches ‘Break the bias’ for international woman’s day. Can we not apply that campaign to our rag and dipper friends in the media?
Anyone who views tiny states like the UAE and Qatar as comparable to nation states like China, Russia, UK, USA has lost the plot. You only have to look at a map to see the straight lines or look in wiki to find out when these states were created to realise that most of them are ex-colonial outposts. A human rights campaigner who focuses on the ex-colony rather than the home of Empire is either dishonest or in the pay of some so called None Governmental organisation like Human Right Watch or Amnesty International. These organisations use-value is to make a case for intervention by militaristic powers. If you want to persuade the public of some foreign expedition to Syria or Libya, you don't wheel out the MI6 or CIA report, you wheel out Human Rights Watch.Yes, the appalling human rights of the middle east.

IMO the UAE is moving in the right direction. It pushes all its efforts and trying to improve the technical capability of its people hence the missions to mars, the moon and the asteroid belt. Many of the engineers and scientists are women and that is how you get social progress. What does the UK have to offer Arabs? War and sanctions. And yet newspapers like the Guardian focus on politics. The political world follows from centuries of foreign wars and what do these commentators want? More intervention and control. They convinced the British people that Saddam was a problem to be eliminated and we had a horrific war far worse than anything inflicted on Ukraine. That is where these arguments about sportswashing lead. These states are authoritarian but social change has to come from within and not through smart bombs or sanctions.

He’s not stopped all morning. He’s at it now calling Chelsea a ‘football club’. He actually said ‘Abramovich has turned Chelsea into a, in inverted commas, a football club’.Talkshite discussing possible points deduction for Everton over FFPR.

You can tell he’s bitter about his failed tenure of Palace as he starts talking really fast. I imagine the mic is covered in his saliva.

Did I hear him correctly. He said Chelsea are now a successful run club who are self sufficient. Yes only if the owner writes of 1.5 billion in debt.He’s not stopped all morning.

The first rule of talksport is don't mention listening to talksport.If you get pissed off etc, about anything said on Talksport then it's your own fault for listening to Talksport. :)
Surprising you can remember what you did this morning tbhThe first rule of talksport is don't mention listening to talksport.

Simon fucking Jordan is like the male version of that horrible wench Katie Hopkins. He just spouts bullshit or a outlandish views to keep himself in work & relevant at Talkshite. He was shite as a businessman and as a football club owner but has found his calling by spouting bizarre opinions and baseless bullshit on a very low grade sports radio station. His life trajectory sums him up.Did I hear him correctly. He said Chelsea are now a successful run club who are self sufficient. Yes only if the owner writes of 1.5 billion in debt.

He might scare kids but doesn't scare opposing forwards. - Or midfielders in our case as we outscore them without forwards.Hed make a good Frankenstein on the ghost train.

A lot of that post-dates the introduction of FFP (£500 million has been added to the loan since 2015 alone) and Abramovich has written off the entire loan which means it's all unearned income. Just waiting for UEFA to open FFP breach proceedings.Did I hear him correctly. He said Chelsea are now a successful run club who are self sufficient. Yes only if the owner writes of 1.5 billion in debt.
I won't hold my breath.
I have never listened to it but still get pissed off from reading about it on here.If you get pissed off etc, about anything said on Talksport then it's your own fault for listening to Talksport. :)
Thats not a complaint btw, I think we should be aware of what any wank media says about us, as they do have the ear of our opposing fans.
At least when some rag who cant think for himself throws some shit about City at you, you have an idea where it came from and can give the requisite reply.
