  1. top 2 picks in S45 ftw
  2. Going back to my point about the friendly, tonight friendlies were cancelled in Belgium (a day in advance I think) and in Germany literally 2 hours before the game because of a bomb threat. Germany of course being evacuated from their hotel in Paris before the game against France the other night. The day after Paris, one of two Gatwick airport terminals over here was evacuated too. I'm not sure if there were real threats or just some fucked up people getting a kick out of this situation but things are not pleasant.
  3. Did I say Friday? Ha! But we are back. Back and ready to rumble and with no changes. As we were then... PM me a number from 1 to 4 and I will send you two questions. Answers due next Saturday.
  4. better
  5. 2 close
  6. Over the past decade/half-decade there has been growing support for right wing groups around Europe and France probably has the most volatile situation in that respect due to their largest Muslim population in the EU. The Front National, a very anti-immigration etc party, is 2nd/3rd in their polls and I can only see that growing before their 2017 elections. There's also quite a bit of popularity for that stance here in the UK, in the Netherlands, Italy, certainly Eastern Europe, and we saw the reaction to refugees in many places. Incidents such as these will only fuel that sentiment and I can't see anything but a return to the 1930s in the near future, except it won't be Jews who are the target. Terrible events, I've been to Paris a few times, know people who travel there regularly. Don't feel in danger personally but they could really strike anywhere and I occasionally need to go to London in rush hour - always something in the back of your mind with the recent history. I'm afraid we're heading towards some dangerous times. Some of the incidents yesterday were outside the stadium where France were playing Germany in a friendly. Next year France hosts Euro 2016 and I have to feel the atmosphere could be very tense then.
  7. I think this worked like Skyfall did. They are actually quite similar stylistically with same director and all. I would say Skyfall is better but I also think Skyfall is less like the old Bond I love (much like Casino Royale, which doesn't take away from both films but they're different). Spectre is a worse film but it's forgivable, for me anyway, because it's very much Bond.
  8. GG defence
  9. Friday.
  10. free HEL G
  11. lawl
  12. not good enough little brother
  13. Gow and Cote and all of the shots.
  14. Shitty Clegane is a disgrace.
  15. as we were
  16. Hope that's a confidence boost for you Parechkin en route to my prediction point.
  17. Holy fuck that was 11 seasons ago.
  18. The man who led us to glory, you will be missed.
  19. Victor

    QUE/DAV ; VOID

    Yup, seems like circumvention to me. Mosley wouldn't be traded for a 2nd in normal circumstances.
  20. Every time there's been GM openings without an internal replacement (and usually that's basically one person per team), we've often struggled to get enough credible candidates to pick from. I don't think it's a particularly sought-after job.
  21. quite it feels just like S17 again
  22. Everyone who cares will understand.
  23. I'd say GMs have it tough enough anyway considering it's a payless job.
