Re: The OFFICIAL English and European Football (soccer) thread
Calling it now. West ham have secured a top 10 finish 8) :thumbup: They're solid as f#ck and they attack with such efficiency. I'm not saying that they play on the break. I mean, when they go, they go with sharp, incisive movement as a unit but usually involving only three or four players at a time...

Re: The OFFICIAL English and European Football (soccer) thread
God knows why West Ham can't do things the simple way. 3-0 up to draw 3-3, and it could have been 5-all. A proper slugfest that one. Both sides played as if they had something to prove to the other. It was good watching, the first full-blooded London derby for a while (not in a violent way, in a ta...

Re: The OFFICIAL English and European Football (soccer) thread
Chelsea cruise into quarter finals with a good win there. There's something about 2-0 in a single game or 3-0 over two legs that seems utterly relentless and uncompromising, a proper pasting. 3-0 and 4-0 respectively, seems less solid, too loose somehow. I know it makes no sense but 3-0 against Atl...

Yes but from one direction it's about past grievance (Irish or Fijian) and from the other it's a present grievance aggravated by the past grievance of the other. So my question again is, how much time is needed....or is this forever?

The Brits despised the Irish, man and boy, when I was living in London in the early seventies. They were looked down on, and seemed to live in what amounted to Irish ghettoes.
