kumnio Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Sometimes, too much exposure is a bad thing. The videos on twitter are alarming, horrific etc etc, there are no good guys, just a collection of varying bastards and cunts. This looks like being the biggest incident in the Middle East since we invaded to get some black gold for our American overlords under Blair.

I think they have pretty much admitted that. There isn't a hope in hell than Hamas will win this, they are going to suffer incredibly over the next week or so.

Shaundy Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Kidnapping some of the Jewish Israeli people who were increasingly partying in the lands around the Gaza camp may be a smart move for those attacking Israel . Israel would have no issue with killing everyone in Gaza but might think twice if folk know there’s even a handful of Jewish hostages.

I'm really not sure how much religion has got to do with it. In earlier versions of the same struggle the PLO iirc followed a Marxist ideology. Treat people appallingly, and hotheads will exploit the injustice and justify their own acts of barbarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be keen to know whether viewing figures for the likes of Soccer Saturday, MOTD and sportscene have gone up or down since they started adding so many women to the panel.

I'm not sure that any statement by Scotland's FM will make much difference. What is utterly appealing and inexcusable is the trivialising of human suffering, both Israeli and Palestinian, to score cheap party political points.

I'd be keen to know whether viewing figures for the likes of Soccer Saturday, MOTD and sportscene have gone up or down since they started adding so many women to the panel. Most of the women are frankly terrible, however so are most of the men. I think you'd struggle to get to ten decent pundits across Scottish and English media. Soccer Saturday used to be excellent viewing, now it is absolute unwatchable drivel. I know loads of people who used to watch it, but don't bother now. Im sure females being on it might be an issue for some, for me its primarily Clinton Morrison who is an incoherent idiot who can't complete a sentence, let alone a point. Then you have Tim Sherwood who is the dullest person alive along with Kris Boyd who is a clueless twat and Lee Hendrie who just looks confused and lost. Rightly or wrong, there is a perception than female pundits are being promoted way above their experience level. If they played mens football, would they be at Premiership/Premier League level, of course not, everyone would have a different opinion about how far down you'd have to go. You wouldn't get an Albion Rovers ex player on Sportscene, or a Harrogate ex player on Super Sunday. There is a lack of depth of good pundits, its easy for some to focus on Karen Carney & End Aluko and then say all women are shite. I like Alex Scott, think Leanne Crichton is ok, but her chemistry with Steven Thompson is awful, those two should never work together.

A couple of weeks ago she gave some insight (regarding squad training and preparation) on the radio Scotland podcast. I actually learned something, rather than hearing the usual anodyne set-piece pish. Sky do this well by getting in current managers on Monday Night Football and grilling them on tactics. You actually learn stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because only men should have opinions on male sport or the fact they are women? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
