Isn't it a reasonable criticism? Israel is one of the few modern states openly pushing colonialism. The idea that the Israel lobby doesn't have some influence over newspapers is naive, at best. Especially those in the USA. I think, for a lot of people, it's just too close to "Jews control the world...

Gwenno is one of the boards nicest, and most reasonable posters.

I can't say it's antisemitic, but alarm bells do go off when a lefty political organisation starts blasting Israel out of nowhere (and not worse countries) when it's not in their direct remit. If somebody on the right started ranting about Zionism controlling British politicians they'd be called a ...

1K upwards fine for littering depending on severity. £500 reward for video evidence leading to a prosecution. Problem sorted and a new show for Harry Hill to boot. There are actually agencies who have people hide behind benches watching for people to litter/throw cigarette butts on the floor so the...

This is going to penalties.

Same old story. Struggle to break down defensive sides. It's no coincidence they play better against the big clubs.

New guy

I like Ighalo. Good, opportunistic poacher which is exactly what United need.

What was your name on 606?
The thing I liked most about 606 was if you started a thread you could delete other peoples posts.

I'd forgotten that

They should add that feature here.

BPC Council are making a lot of money from carparks and fines + not paying for the clean up. With the money saved by not opening or cleaning toilets, not paying lifeguards etc - they are just blaming the public and making the right noises in public. Let's not pretend like this is an isolated incide...

Littering in this country is a horrendous issue as is throwing away shit we can recyle. I've received verbal abuse from people on trains for offering to take their plastic bottle or newspaper home with me for recycling when they're about to put it in the bin. Mind boggling. The Japanese used to hav...

But there were some characters on there. And a lot of trolling, of course!

I miss it. Everyone accusing everyone else of being a "WUM" in every thread.

Shame the BBC got rid but they probably got tired of having to moderate that crap.

I thought it was confirmed or has there been a change of heart?

Yeah I think I was the same.

What a cess pit the 606 forums were. Sometimes my incoherent posts would get published on the official BBC sport match reports though which was fun.

The Dixie Chicks have suffered long and hard for going against the party-line Notably in about 2003 when they were villified for criticisng Bush Cost them millions and millions, it has. Not to mention the personal cost. The hate. Good on them for never backing down :thumbup: https://en.m.wikipedia....

Just to be clear here the "they" are the artists themselves. No-one went after them. They decided the names no longer represented them. Not true. The Dixie Chicks have always been woker than woke so it's no great surprise they changed the name. However both they, and Lady Antebellum took some stick...

Liverpool win the COVID-19 disrupted league. Congratulations! Chelsea won 2-1, City were shitting themselves in defence on a regular basis, eventually one of the gifts turned into Fernandinho slapping the ball off the line and getting sent off, Willian scoring the penalty.

Britain as a whole is better off with clowns like RLB off the front benches. Regardless of who you vote for, this is good.

Genuine question: Does anyone here feel guilt due to their skin colour? Not particularly. I do occasionally feel varying degrees of disquiet when I'm made aware of despicable things done 'by' or in the name of my country, race, culture, etc etc, but I can rationalise the extent to which I as an ind...

These guys feel empowered because of the BLM movement, where you don't have to respect the police anymore - and 15 cops (FIFTEEN) get injured by thugs.

It was actually 22 not 15.

All of them lying for the compensation no doubt.

15 Police injured in Brixton. Nothing like twats who think they are empowered. Looks mostly peaceful to me.

2011 was my personal favourite. I was in university so could set my alarm for 4 am, roll out of bed, watch Wales hammer Fiji and then go back to sleep for another 5 hours. Perfect.

Would the Irish, as a minority in England, be justified in tearing down the Cromwell statue and bucking it in the Thames? (On account of the 500,000 civilian deaths caused by him, and the 40,000 Irishmen forcibly taken and used as indentured labourers in England) Then, would the English who support...

It was good compared to other world cup finals. Engaging throughout and Kolbe scored the best RWC final try ever.

I'd rate it above 99, 2007 and maybe 2011.
