Everton haven't had a problem with conceding goals - pretty much average for those outside top 6. It's scoring goals - only 15. Dyche isn't known for that side of his management. It could all come down to the proverbial 6 pointers against other teams around them. Dyche won't be there long (if...

People don't like backtracking. Eagles were getting pelters last few years for being a disfunctional organisation who didn't know what they were doing. Nobody was taking Hurts seriously due to being ousted by Tua at Alabama. Then suddenly everyone wakes up and finds they have built a great...

Attritional stuff by the Eagles. 31 pts off just 270ish offensive yards is impressive. Can see them repeating that on the Chiefs. Thought the Chiefs might get taken with Mahomes injured - just not the same player if he can't move. But that Chiefs defense is way better than when the Buccs took...

Israeli. They have some of the "best" military drone technology

Going to happen more often. Iranian support for Russia could well see the sharing of nuclear technology between the two countries as the price for this support.

49ers & Eagles probably best 2 balanced teams in NFC. Eagles have 2 exceptional lines particularly O line which has been a massive impact on Hurts this season. Purdy struggled against Cowboys and is going to have to improve a lot against Eagles. Maybe he's getting too much credit as he's "Mr...

It's state controlled media. It's very much aimed at domestic consumption for the regional masses as being their main source of news. Don't forget it is still a 10 year sentence for openly criticizing Putin's Ukraine policies. Again the mobilizations/conscriptions etc are focused in the...

Armaments need special govt export license. In these are conditions basically saying for the exclusive use of the purchaser or something similar. It's to control ( in theory) where arms are ending up ég countries buying arms then reselling them to "problem" countries. Also applies to many...

To the Germans it was just another manufacturing business - mainly for export. Ukraine war has changed that mindset. Going to see real increases in theirs ( and other EU countries) military spending. One for Russia, two to reduce the reliance on the US and it's less reliable political mindset...

Not sure it makes that bigger difference. Russian public been told the whole time that they're are at war with NATO; that NATO do have boots on the ground in Ukraine etc. The bigger threat of a disproportionate reaction was Ukraine committing attacks inside Russia - which they done. The...

Interesting to see where they end up. Defending against new Russian push then maybe a sign West thinks things aren't going well. Attacking in the South and maybe West believing they can "win".

Still the same model that has put so many of these clubs in trouble - rich benefactor/owner. He dies ( god forbid) or gets in financial trouble and it's all over for the rugby club.

Just more than the 2k people seem to think. If they can't fill 5500 then they're in trouble again.

There will be an initial bounce (much like us moving back to Cov) but then it will be very much based on whether they are successful or not. But Solihull just a temporary stop as impossible to stay there if they want to return and stay in the top division - capacity, corporate facilities, F&B...

large amount of self-entitlement amongst Everton fans. Until last season they've been a "top10" side for nearly 20 years. Kept going after Kenwright that he wasn't spending enough money and when Moshiri came in with a cheque book they thought they'd be quids in. Fact is top 6 is pretty much...

Exactly. Maybe attention should be focussed higher up.

Conspiracy theorists have it as Chinese agents stirring up trouble as a warning over Taiwan🤫

When the likes of Ancelotti and Benitez can't make it work maybe managers aren't their biggest problem?

That side in the 80s under Kendall played some great football. Could easily have one a European cup if it wasn't for their neighbours.

Fascinating discussions. Basically Russian foreign policy thinking and tactics haven't changed since the Cold War. Western govt complacency/arrogance and a belief that money & trade could change a thought process that doesn't have any roots in liberal democracy ( much like they've believed in...
