For example...
BBC News - Joe Lewis: Tottenham Hotspur owner charged over alleged insider trading
Joe Lewis: Tottenham Hotspur-linked billionaire denies US insider trading charges
British businessman Joe Lewis faces multiple counts of fraud in a Manhattan court.
The BBC are calling Lewis the owner, he's not.
Lewis has also ruined the lives of many families/ people with his actions. He's a different kind of scum, but he's still scum.
I guess it's a cunt like Lewis who actually puts something into the club...
Winning stuff
Yeah that is annoying & just deflecting. Like if you say we have needed new CBs for 5 years & someone says what about Scunthorpe town. They have needed a new keeper for 7.
Yeah the BBC are good at that...just ask Coutts Bank...Where did I specify just on here? Oh that's right, I didn't. That's where the reading comprehension comes in!!

The chimpanzee paradox in effect isn't it?Now we've had 'give quiche a chance', I'm going to dust this one off:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A few points: Everyone's perspective 'feels' right to them. It's based on their experience, their filters, their conditioning. You can't argue with feelings. They're special.
One thing to bear in mind when *feeling* like responding to someone who is criticising your views, is that your ego, a grizzled street-plodder to whom the motto "SERVE AND PROTECT" long ago fell into irony, sees someone making a public attack on your opinions as a blasphemous attack on your own pure divinity.
To Ego, their contradicting view is an African American person with a chocolate bar in their hand. Ego identifies the clear and present danger. Ego thinks "HE'S COMING RIGHT FOR US!" and wants to shoot first and maybe replace the chocolate bar with a deadly weapon later. Ego has had a lot of coffee. Ego's wife left it and moved to the West coast. Ego's kid's call it 'Eggo'. In short: Ego wants to prove itself.
The way to 'win' is to acknowledge your ego is just a trigger-happy, out-dated warden, trying to find threats where they don't exist. It's got a life-times worth of ill-informed anachronistic prejudices and it wants to vindicate itself in any way it can. See it. Feel it. And then tell it to stand down. "That'll do, Ego, that'll do. Thank you for your service. Now step aside, the commissioner is talking."
With that out of the way, you are free to take on board your fellow fan's views as a point of reference (i.e. information that you previously didn't have) and see for yourself how it can be factored into a well-rounded and more accurate perspective.

Do you know how these things work ? Do you realise how serious insider trading is taken in the states & how thorough they are ? All parties who have been in contact with him during the timescale of these allegations will be investigated
To be fair, Caulker being shit may also have had something to do with it
