  1. 03:00 UK time is 05:00 Greece time and I 'll be flying that hour ! Why does it not say 17/6 then ? We go by Mexico ?
  2. We all want tax cuts but I don't see it coming. The age of the big brother is looming upon us. In the ancient world peoples revolted against taxes: The battle of the Teutoburg forest, Robin Hood against the sheriff of Nottingham (if true), American revolution, French revolution. In French revolution, the hero Lafayette warned Louis but Louis did n't listen - so he ended up minus a head. In the modern world things changed. Socialism promised to tax anything that moves. In Russia they created the holodomor, the genocide of the Ukrainians. As a result people were charging against the electric fences to find freedom in the west. This time the taxes were meant to go to the socialist state and not to the "gentilhommes" but the effect was the same. In the end come the turn of the century. Now it's the electronics revolution. The taxman, be it Ivan or the king's horsemen, has an easy task now. All the money is converted to points residing in computer banks. At the flick of a switch he can confiscate all you got and more. So if someone like Lafayette turns up and says "hey guys take it easy" they will just laugh at him. Take easy what mate ? All we do is press enter to run a subroutine. So the age of slavery and conformity is here to stay. What will happen if you are with a friend in a motorway and he runs out of gas ? He left his wallet at home as well so he asks to you to buy the gas from the station. You do that, you continue your journey. But how get your twenty quid back ? The friend is willing to pay his debt but how ? The transaction has to be authorised by a political commissar. If he simply transfers twenty quid to you is a "suspect commercial activity" - you both go to jail. Fiddlesticks ! So that's socialism for you.
  3. Cristiano ? Then also Gullit and Stamatiadis of Greece.
  4. 4-0 to Hungary. That was a bigger score than 1953 ! Were England so sleepy ?
  5. Well, I thought Neymar is a so and so prospect these days so I asked for opinions. You think he is that special as well as expensive ? The Greek shipping magnates are not so keen these days. Only Goulandris in the seventies and Onasis's son possibly, the one who was killed in the plane crash. There are some with 4-5 ships such as the Nottingham Forest character but they are not magnates.
  6. However for RM these are the lean years. Cristiano gone, Hazard no good.
  7. All this hype about Courtois is the agony of the supporter really. Even a catch from a back pass makes the supporter gasp in agony. I did n't see anything spectacular, although admittedly against us he managed a Banks save which eventually gave Madrid the champions league. If Saleh had scored in the 83d minute you would be writing here "Courtois nutmegged again".
  8. Courtois made the Banks save against us. Today he made easy saves.
  9. Pool were useless. Shame I backed the draw.
  10. Is 200 million enough ? With 200 million you buy one trilili whistle and two Turkish eggs in today's football.
  11. End of season. Everybody had a lazy afternoon except Chil. The sum total: Cups = Twice unlucky in the shootouts against admittedly a strong opponent (pool) Champions League = Lost our chance because of one horrible mistake (Mendy). Would n't have been easy. Nobody can claim they can eliminate Real Madrid, City and pool one after the other, but we deserved better. League = I left the league last because it is a stamina competition. It is in my opinion superior to the champions league even though the champions league is regarded as more prestigious. This is because in today's European football the premier is considerably more difficult than the others domestic leagues. We cannot be satisfied with the (distant) 3d place and we don't have what it takes. First the Christmas wall, then the Lukaku wall, then the Abramovitch wall. Someone has to find a treatment for those. I hope it was the last time we saw Lukaku's face.
  12. Villa were offered free holidays in Bahrein.
  13. I believe Rangers can win the Europa. They eliminated RB Leipzig with ease and RB Leipzig are 10 points above Eintracht in the bundesliga. Between Feyenoord and Roma the teams ratings suggest Feyenoord. You agree ?
  14. It was obvious Mahrez was going to miss. Yesterday that Tsimikas character is a chicken and he would never score had Mount scored before him.
  15. Pep stole Haaland from us. Between the two I prefer Pep is destroyed. Also I consider pool harmless in the longer run.
  16. Whom do you wish to see more destroyed ? Pep or pool ? Me Pep.
  17. 'pool started with a frantic pace - looked like an easy 5-0 for 'pool in the first 15 minutes. Then we managed to contain them but in the 2nd half they had a spell again. Alonso should have scored the tap in and also missed another one in the second half. Lukaku tried but againt too little too late.
  18. This thing is the same as coin toss. I don't care but then again they are going to write in history "Liverpool FA cup winners 2022". They had two or three good chances but we had more. Alonso was given an easy tap in, he lost his footing. As for Lukaku nothing doing again. Bye bye.
  19. What is the penalty for not turning up ?
  20. We are going to lose 6-0 on Saturday. What is the penalty for not turning up ?
