Yet he must be receiving support to put him in the White House.I get all the Hitler Paedo hate irrelevance of voting etc etc butThere must be a considerable number of Americans who listen and join in with the anti trump conversation...then go straight out and vote for him.All the while non Americans are slating him left right and centre.What does this say about Americans?It’s quite simple really. Virtue signalling. Liberal/left leaning opinions are ‘allowed’ and ‘socially acceptable’, and as we know all too well in the UK, you have to be very careful what you say, online and off. So the only way forward is silence, and let the votes to the talking.

7 hours ago7 hr 5 hours ago, WhiteWall said:It's just another indication as to why they just don't get sport.Well, the issue is now that most clubs in the UK are owned by Americans they see UK Soccer as their sport as opposed to being the sport of the fans. They have a different viewpoint on "sport". This is yet another reason why Global Capitalism is so dangerous.

7 hours ago7 hr The Momentum Breaks (aka Hydration breaks) are quite weird considering some of the stadiums are air conditioned. The breaks are not always necessary. Yes, it is pretty obvious that they are "getting adverts into it from an American point of view" (Ian Wright). The perspective is advertising and the global game is all about money these days. for the final there are plans for a half time show of 25-30 minutes like the superb owl - that could really kill some momentum.

1 hour ago1 hr 1 hour ago, Boyne said:These three liked the occasional drop of alcohol.I saw Best with Alan Mullery at the Fairfield Halls in Croydon.Best was pissed throughout, but he came out after the interval and was by then spectacularly drunk, he kept repeating himself, made an unforgivable racist comment about Andy Cole which didn't impress a black family in the audience. Mullery was brilliant though and held it all together, after that Best comment he said whatever is said here stays here, but a couple of weeks later it was in the press. . I won't repeat it here but it's probably out there somewhere.
