    Fallen Angels

    Erm… he wrote We Will Rock You. He's dead to me. Death to all Queen collaborators
  2. I’m definitely not confused at all Why isn’t what Rashford did the same as BLM? When did BLM ever disrupt a football game? Gary Lineker doesn’t bring politics into his football punditry, why shouldn’t he have an opinion outside of his job? He’s not a political or current events journalist, he doesn’t need to appear unbiased politically for his work. None of this things have ever stopped you watching a football game either, I'm not sure why you imagine they have.
  3. Why? I never get why people think this. Should Rashford have said and done nothing about kids from poor families starving? Should this Real Madrid player have just sucked up the racist abuse? Should there have been no sporting boycott of South Africa? Should Russia currently be allowed to compete in any sport? To be honest this sport and politics shouldn't mix idea was always put about by right wing arseholes and for some reason it seems to have become one of those universal truths that people fall back back on when their favourite sport is affected. The idea that you can separate sport from everyday life is just nonsensical
  4. Well I didn’t think it was going to happen but as it stands right now, I’m on 50 points and have crept into the all important 2nd place in my ML with a 3 point lead. My rival has 6 DGWers and I have 7 but a lot of similarity. As long as Haaland doesn’t haul, I should be in 2nd before the lottery of the final week. Also currently in the highest place I've been all season just touching top 140k Keeping hold of Trippier has certainly paid dividends in the last two GWs
  5. How hard are you trying on a personal level?
  6. They should be talked about in more reverend tones that you know… that bunch of scousers I'm bound to mention. Certainly wrote better songs
  7. Depends which Luka story you believe. There's Luka is dying and Luka is meeting Putin in Moscow on Wednesday currently doing the rounds today
  8. Both of their reports on Ukraine have normally been days late and not very accurate. BBC last night were reporting that Bakhmut had finally fallen, not a single mention of the Ukraine encirclement of the city going on on both the north and south flanks. That had been going on for days
  9. There are people out there that insist that the green label RCA pressings are the best out there, better than the orange label first pressings and better than the 40th Anniversary remaster. There is also supposedly a quote from Bowie saying it was his favourite too.
  10. @XannThats a great video, they could do another one on the Indian influence in both reggae and rastafarianism itself too.... Jackie Mittoo, Lee Gopthal.... And don't get me started on Chutney music
  11. Also the Legion of Russia / Russian Volunteer Corp are reportedly 4km away from a base that stores part of Russia's Nuclear Arsenal in the Graivoron Region
  12. This is interesting in an unrelated matter Remember the RyanAir flight that was diverted to Minsk after a fake bomb threat purely aimed at Belarus boarding the plane and arresting a dissident in 1921? That was Roman Protasevich He was only sentenced this month to 8 years imprisonment, yet he has already been pardoned That is highly unusual to say the least
  13. Nah, Wagner are still desperate to curry favour with Putin, hence yesterdays flag raising stunt in Bakhmut
  14. Not a chance of that happening. Firstly Ukraine needs them and secondly the USA won't allow it
  15. Might have a bit of difficulty getting out of Bakhmut
  16. Sadly not, lots of twits already proclaiming as much
  17. Wow, thats some ballsy move if true. The Legion Of Russia is only about 2 battalions strong, I think the Belarussians also have three battalions, maybe they are going too? It seems like a suicide mission unless they are going over as Russians to avoid Ukraine invading Russia and to take out logistics ahead of the counter-offensive. Thinking about it that is most likely Counteroffensive must be close
  18. That whole system of defence there relies on the artillery at the rear to make the dragons teeth / trenches difficult to pass. The artillery at the rear will be taken out in advance of the advance. WW1 tactics don't really make much sense in the world of HIMARs and Storm Shadows etc
