It was a foul, ya dafty. 😄

I quoted wrong person, sorry. Was in response to hyperbole from the ranty Rangers fan.

The "worst" VAR decision he's seen?! 😄 It's soft, yeah, but he pushes the defender. It's a foul. The ref gives a foul, there's no way that's getting overturned.

👍 My wife's a teacher so she's loaded! We'll be ok. Also ever hopeful my 8-year-old will become a well-paid gaming genius and keep me in my old age. 😄

Yeah, that was good advice you got. 👍 Ach, I'm not bitter. I made my bed. And I'm not gonna be on the streets. As you say, others will be in a similar position or worse off.

It is a good thread, but making me feel awful about some of my early career decisions. I'm 50 now and genuinely don't see how I'll be able to retire before 67 or whatever. Those (the majority here?) talking about retiring in 50s, it blows my mind. I've had good professional level posts since graduating late 20s but not made great pension provision. I had a council pension, for example, but in order to consolidate at one point, I moved it to an inferior product. I then worked for myself a wee while and had no provision. Latterly, due to ill health, I've moved to a home-based, poorly paid job. I pay into a pension but I think my combined private pensions over the years will be minuscule, therefore will be working till state pension age. And then pick up that pittance. Enjoy your respective retirements, folks, but think of us mere mortals.

Aye, maybe it's all relative. I liked him though.

Yeah, wasn't having a go. Just my thoughts. I'm 50 exactly. Always thought I was pretty enlightened but feeling more alienated by all things youth culture.

We can be too precious. Kane is an illiterate boor, who is also a blatant cheat and diver. A horrific role model as an England captain and representative of the declining standards of modern youth and, therefore, ripe for getting ridiculed at any opportunity. I don't personally sing derogatory songs but there's worse things to worry about.

Slater was a good player.

You jest.

Geographically dodgy too. Spain are nowhere near his heartland of Denmark and eastern England. 😎

That Ipswich section of the TA are khunts.

It's perhaps not straightforward and the examples you give are cause for discussion. Not saying I have a perfect solution, but in general terms, yeah, I think those not resident in the country not being given a vote is a perfectly logical and fair position to take.

That's a fair enough position, is it not?

Yeah, I was surprised too.

Robertson was excellent going forward. Don't listen to the dafties. Overall we weren't great. Played in spells. Never in trouble, lack of invention at times. Job done.

I think Gilmour already is, as is McGregor. So easily forgotten how assured he looked in big games for us not that long ago. I don't remember us having someone like that. He's fit. Play him.

Yeah, this.

Yeah, sorry. Fair enough, I shall do likewise.

You keep making reference to "my students". That is truly horrifying. The dumbing down of society is a real phenomenon. But for someone with your grasp on reality and decency to be in a position to influence young minds is breathtakingly scary.

Usually yellow, although sometimes pink.

I genuinely think, unless you're permanently on the wind up, that you are the thickest cunt ever to feature on the TAMB. No offence. But seriously, the thickest cunt.

Not having a go, but that's nonsense, isn't it? 😁 Whenever you post about any of the candidates it's to rubbish something Regan has said or ridicule Forbes. Always. There's nothing particularly wrong with voting for Humza, but please just be open about it. Own your decisions, as the young people say.

Why? I can care about more than one thing at a time. I felt it worthwhile to ridicule a racist both for being a racist and for being a thick cunt. In fact, it could be argued the two are related. All in all, a valuable contribution. So you can fuck off with your culture of inadequacy and celebration of ignorance.
