I’m not downplaying the role of women WG I just don’t think it’s in the men’s game, Mrs A gets its a day for the boys and wouldn’t want to intrude. Are their exceptions course there are but in general no and I’m sure we can all see it for ourselves at every game.
And some women like it and want to enjoy it. It’s not an all boys’ club, so women should be welcome.
Well, yes, but because women can’t build muscle and don’t have testosterone like men do. It’s nothing to do with lack of sporting knowledge or skill.
It’s just one seat projection from one poll, but I am still amused:

May this trend continue and have the Nats collapse. Scottish politics deserves better than the excuse laden, corrupt, cultish SNP.
Not a podcast but you, and others, may find this piece of interest Siderite:

Waters seems to have taken it upon himself to outdo Morrissey in the biggest arsehole in music stakes.
Maybe inspired by. The podcast I recommended has been going longer, but the person who does the radio 4 series has featured as a guest on the one I shared, I have noticed.

Just listened to the Peterson, Murray and Pageau episode Siderite. Excellent that. Very shrewd and funny. Genuine lols towards the end. Think I might be a convert! However the length of the other episodes is a bit off putting. Interesting explanation of how Peterson’s delivery fools people. Not really thought about it like that, though like many I suspect, once he stops ranting I’m fully aware of the points where he’s made illogical jumps, those points where something in my brain says ‘something’s not right back there but he was talking so fast and exuberantly i missed exactly where it was!’
Not listened to that episode, but I have been impressed by the others I have done in that they do express sympathy with their subject and give credit where it’s due. They can be long, it’s not suited to binging in one go, but I don’t mind putting it on pause myself if I need a break.
Someone was recommending me One man and his shed the other day, as a matter of fact.

Shouldn’t do. I don’t, but they do have other bases, such as spotify:

Those who are deemed as ‘right on’ and sufficiently progressive can never be at fault, according to their followers, so it probably will be one of those suspects.

I am slightly sceptical over the gender bill. She did slump in the polls, but I didn’t think it was terminal. However, you’re right in that it’s all speculative at the moment.
Also cricket is a sport where delay doesn’t affect the feel of the game so much. Football isn’t as stop/start, so anything which disrupts the flow is more noticeable and if it results in a dubious VAR decision there will be frustration. Whereas, some more time deliberating in cricket is less of an issue because there are inherent stoppages (between runs and overs) which do not matter if they last a bit longer than average.
Celebrating the same goal five minutes apart is only something we could have dreamed of just a few years ago.
Is the implementation of VAR policy of the ruling elites, as theorised by the cultural Marxists emanating from the Frankfurt school to the WEF and beyond, a part of the upcoming totalitarian state? :-)

God forbid we aim to improve things like air quality in cities through encouragement for greener living and ensuring people have easy access for all their needs in such. It’s totalitarian communism for elected governments and councils to work on schemes with the idea to improve healthcare and the environment.
The idea that society is becoming cashless was never the conspiracy theory. The fear mongering about elites/illuminati/NWO/cultural marxists/aliens from Andromeda was.
I usually find JI’s posts quite interesting, even if I don’t agree.
I would add that I wasn’t using this story to get at you, if that’s the worry. I just happened to stumble across this, it rejigged a memory of that past debate and I thought I would share my thoughts arising from this.
I don’t think they did beforehand, did they? I don’t think the Saudis did that.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Saudis did encourage a women’s team in Newcastle. They like to make themselves appeal to the locals; just look at Man City and the investment the Emiratis have done for charitable causes so Citeh fans think what wonderful custodians they are. Their purpose, alongside wealth and prestige, is to endear themselves and cover up questionable associations back home. I don’t think the Saudi owners would be bothered by a women’s team; to the owners we’re mostly unbelievers off to Hell anyway and it would make them appear caring for the fans to the outside.
If we started saying Saudi women should be able to play football, then there’d be trouble.
One of the worst and someone who is a nasty Tory (not saying all are). How was this chump a former Labour councillor as recently as 2018?
A good move from Starmer here:
British Labour leader Kier Starmer calls for the reconstruction of Ukraine to be funded by seized/frozen Russian assets in Western countries.
Significant statement, considering he's very probably going to be the UK's next Prime Minister.

The argument will put focus on shady deals with oligarchs if rejected. However, if Starmer is PM it’s something he will need to really put into action to keep trust.

It’s alleged, but the Premier League have spent 4 years investigating and many have been suspicious. Obviously we have to wait for any kind of verdict before any certainty, but many have been suspicious and it looks bad. It’s not the first time and the way they got off the UEFA sanctions was dubious to me.
Website seems fine on my laptop, but on my phone it can be a pain. Maybe it’s your browser?
Why is this pinned?
Sunak is a bit of a drip.
The thing is that I wouldn’t be surprised if the people suggesting the solution for surrogacy like organ donation would be left wing. I am not saying this is a widespread belief on the left, but there is a warning sign there that maybe they need to consider it more when coming up with ideas. Getting many on the left to care about women’s rights when it comes to other issues can be like dragging nails on a blackboard.
And none of it was his fault either:
Luciana Berger quit the Labour Party because she was hounded out and Corbyn’s Labour couldn’t tackle the antisemitism within its ranks.
To suggest she left with an ulterior motive is disgusting.pic.twitter.com/0TNvHbomZb

He could have done far more to make Luciana more comfortable, but he didn’t and she left, and now that’s an ulterior motive (implied) to dismiss her concerns post-hoc.
It’s ok, they’re only conspiratorial scientists after money for supercomputers.
I am not saying we weren’t. I have said that to discount the other polar view offered by bpg that Dean has us playing an exciting style which we can all look forward to. Though in another thread we already have opinions on him being the wrong manager. It’s all a bit soon for that, I feel.
I don’t know what’s more ridiculous. Those writing Dean off after one game or bpg declaring him the messiah after a rubbish performance after some previous improvements.
Genuinely haven’t seen anyone writing off Dean already. If so, I agree, ridiculous!
We have Renee and ironmaster1 on the other thread hypothesising about him losing the dressing room and being the wrong manager already.

To be fair, that match would surely have been a draw against a good side with Rory between the sticks.
Eh? When did we declare that Rory Watson was some saviour who would get us a point? He didn’t often manage to in games last season, even if it wasn’t because of him that we lost games.

It’s not a good start, but it’s been one sodding game. We are too quick to determine Nelson is the next Adkins and too quick to write Dean off. It may be the wrong decision, but it’s too early to tell just yet, definitively. The same people saying Wilcox was the best after his initial good run in 2013 were then saying he’s useless a year later.

You agree that this chap should have been hanged? That surprises me.
