    Libertarianism

    What price for this new westernised way of doing politics? $14 for a cup of Starbucks coffee in NY $17 for 2 bags of MacDonalds fries and 2 Chocolate shakes. Land of the so called free and the home of the brave— you need to be very brave and perhaps stupid to pay the those prices.

    Climate Change, where are you on this scale?

    I’m somewhere in between C-B due in part because I can see a lot of great things happening on the planet that will go a long way to helping us clean things up but also a lot of push back by so called all green political leaders. The great efforts are mostly from privately funded efforts such...

    New England kit

    What’s not to like about this price, especially when it was probably manufactured for probably a few bob.

    Early Retirement.

    It all depends on what you term as keeping yourself busy. For me at least I think it’s not such a bad idea to just do something that perhaps adds value to your daily routine. Maybe you can go hiking, cycling, golfing or fishing to fill in your outdoor time. There’s nothing wrong in starting your...

    Interesting Carrick comment re injuries

    Players maybe not communicating enough to medical staff when they have issues? I can’t help but think Forss has conditioning problems and therefore should have been managed properly. The whole MFC medical staff need to be either re-trained on fired as they’ve been completely useless this season.

    Joey Barton

    Certainly the so called requirements for a female commentator versus a male commentator seem to be different from the standpoint of the total skills package. Maybe I’m just used to old school commentators (mostly male) but even the new generation of male commentators are articulate, funny and...

    He’s still a teen so give him a break.

    De Niro on trump -

    The (American) civil court rulings are only about getting the perpetrator to pay up for their so called crimes. Most of us recognize that OJ Simpson probably murdered his former wife and her boyfriend, but somehow the defence managed to weasel OJ out of it. The problem with American justice...

    De Niro on trump -

    De Niro, serial philanderer, druggy, pimp (France prostitution ring), countless property scandals, countless discrimination cases, renowned sexist, serial abuser the list goes on so how has he stayed out of jail tells its own story on how corrupt Hollywood really is. This guy or slime ball (De...

    McNair

    Hard to find players like Paddy, who are versatile and can offer respective leadership on and off the field. He’s one of the first names on the Northern Irish team sheet so I’d say he’s definitely got a lot of admirers who are going to pay him his worth.

    What a day.

    Special days are (imo) when you’re willing to travel and watch the Boro win on the road. The win becomes even more special when you’re with family and you’re able to enjoy the shared moment — absolutely priceless!

    * The Unofficial "Official" Boro v QPR [03/24] Match-Day Thread *

    I think McGree is starting to show signs he’s returning to form. He linked up well today and also put his foot in. I think he continues to improve.

    * The Unofficial "Official" Boro v QPR [03/24] Match-Day Thread *

    Apart from their 10 minute surge in the first half they looked very much like a bottom half team although I’m not too sure if they’re absolute relegation fodder. We contained them especially making sure that Chair was kept away from having direct efforts on goal. As soon as he went off you could...

    Did Jordan Hugill ruin our season?

    Hugill’s foul on Izzy and his subsequent injury really did have a major impact on our game, but it was complicated by the loss of other players such as Latte, Hayden and the others. This season has to go down as one of the worst in living memory for all things which could have gone did go wrong...

    This is pitiful - well said Dana

    When the club sells off its best assets and doesn’t replace them then unfortunately this is where we’re at. The execs at the club have shown their true colours this season by selling and not replacing them with players who are good enough.
