I agree with the latter but not the former. I was impressed by him up until this brexit shambles. If he was brilliant the tories would be out already - it's being set on a plate for him and he is not doing anything about it.
(You are probably right about Peston trailer)

According to Peston on twitter he isn't going to bite as that would be (seen to be)putting party before country and he wants to put the country first and go back to the EU to renegotiate.

I didn't even see anything about a banana incident.
The sterling thing wouldn't be about chelsea. Ian Wright and Gary Lineker picked it up on twitter and that made it run and in addition Sterling tweeted himself about it.Those 3 things would give it legs. Also the fact that people are able to put together about 30 tweets worth of crap that Sterling gets which is very inconsistent with other players has given it mileage.
I would be inclined to say I am not 100% sure what the guy said and whether or not it was racist but he is clearly an arsehole. I watched the game and the corner was almost directly after when David Luiz had got wrecked by Sterling. It was actually Luiz's fault as he went do do sterling and sterling jumped up with his knees to avoid him and ending up wrecking Luiz's ribs. However with that I think "emotions" about him were running higher.
I also do wonder if it's a "class" thing as opposed to a race thing. It's bullshit whatever it is but there are others get this abuse who aren't people of colour.

« on: December 10, 2018, 08:29:31 AM »It’s strange that naomh eanna get people in Antrim saying they shouldn’t be playing in intermediate.no one else in Ulster has even mentioned it.with all respect to Antrim football,playing division one in your county does not mean you are guaranteed to win Ulster intermediate.they played intermediate as they hadn’t won the championship at that grade to move up to senior.that makes perfect sense to me.
It's only a couple of begrudgers and hard to know whether they are on the wind up or not so not sure that it's reflective really. Most people are happy for them. Most division 1 teams in antrim wouldn't win ulster intermediate anyway lol.

Big result for st brigids. Creggan have some of their best senior players playing at that age group.

Monzo is the same. 3 percent fee on cash withdrawal amounts over 200 euro in a rolling 30 day period.

City, again, didn't show great character when the chips were down. I would still have them as favourites though(non liverpool fan).

« on: December 08, 2018, 06:28:03 PM »Funny how the Sky commentators kept saying we are temporarily top of the league. They really are dying for City to win it. Some craic if Chelsea win this evening ?Chelsea win tonight and you can say this is Liverpool's Premier league title to lose.
Yeah with not even half a season played in a 2 horse race with a , potentially, slim lead over one of the best teams ever in the premier league they would be throwing it away if they didn't hold out for over half a season

What is your logic here MR?
It's ok to play A and B at minor level - not ok at u21 but ok again in the form of intermediate and junior at adult age group? I am not sure I follow your train of thought.
A B and C or senior intermediate junior are just labels so that hardly matters.

Yeah Cassidy has got himself in some shape this season and he'd hardly be in that shape if he was at that all the time. He just strikes you as one of these boys who when they're "on it" they're on it but probably don't do it that regularly. I would also imagine that missing out on the Ai this is maybe the biggest win of his career so a massive deal for him.

One eejit on a forum does not represent an entire club so I would be reluctant to chastise the club over one person...
