What he meant was that you can use the mute option. Sham just doesnât know how to speak with respect.
It is something I am considering because I am cringing at hypocritical virtue signalling in this thread. Cheered & prayed for Parteyâs availability for last 3 seasons but club bad.
I have seen a lot of B. S. posts here but not receiving the same treatment I have from you.
Your freedom to refuse it, but I have seen enough.
The day to use the mute option, is the day to leave this site, my friend.
I donât know. I mute the wrestling thread because wrestling is not a real sport.
You donât join the wrestling discussion from day one so it is different.
So if I donât like people posting 100 threads about pizza on Gyokeres (or Sesko??) thread and I mute it .. I could basically mute everything when I see something not right, irrelevant, inappropriate, or different from my stanceâŚ
Whatâs the point to stay?
Well done for picking up on that.
If thatâs the only criteria for naming a sport then shouldnât it clarify that players touch the ball with their hands to do throw-ins? Or that keepers can handle the ball inside the box?
âFoot-plus-sometimes-hand-in-specific-situations-ballâ is not a very user-friendly name so I think soccer is much better.

Ah my bad
I agree, as a tribal Association Football fan and ex-referee but a former player of the Rugby Union Football game the âwhat part of the body you use to move the ballâ means nothing, âfootballâ is personal. I was chatting to an Australian Rules football fan a couple of nights ago, we seemed to be able to effortlessly move from his favourite Football (or organised violence, masquerading as sport) to mine with both of us using the same word for totally different sports.
I think my snobbishness (and it is that) kicks in when our language is infiltrated by âAmericanismsâ. The number of times Iâve ignored âInvitesâ as opposed to accepting âinvitationsâ suggests Iâm a lost cause at this point in my 50+ years.
I can see the attraction of the Gaelic version, I watched Kerry play in a final in August 2001 and it was exciting, passionate and a brilliant experience all round. Even though the rules left me a bit baffled.
SEVEN times?!
What did they miss the other six times Jesus

Arrested 7 times? I thought he was arrested once, at the very start and the investigation had been ongoing since then.
If he was arrested 7 times that really puts the clubâs decision to keep playing him in a new and very poor light. But also, what on earth was going on in the investigation for that to happen?

Definitely some crossed wires here. I find it hard to believe that a footballer could be arrested six times without anyone noticing.

Surely there would have been stories about the âunnamed premier league playerâ
I find it hard to believe that anyone could be arrested and bailed seven times, without any charges.

Surely heâs been on bail the whole time.
The investigation never stopped so there canât have been a time when he wasnât subject to conditions.
I can certainly see a situation where he might have been questioned that many times, but I think we would have heard that too.
Iâm not buying the idea that anything has happened, which was somehow missed by the entirety of the media.
We would have got stories like âUnnamed Premier League footballer brought in for questioningâ, or âUnnamed Premier League footballer arrested for the sixth timeâ.
