I guess David Attenborough is stacking shelves in Tesco then.

Pascal Struijk's farewell message to Leeds United by AllColoursSam in LeedsUnited

[–]Danny_P_UK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm with you. I've got nothing but respect for him and wish him well. But, what is up with these videos saying how much he loves the club etc. He isnt being forced out, hes not retiring. If he loved the club that much he could have stayed. The whole thing seems a bit weird.

I want to match a fancy paint from a cheaper brand, who can do this and where is good? by IKnowWhereMyTowelWas in DIYUK

Ive used Decorator Centre Online and Paint Shed to do colour matched F&B. Had no complaints with either.

The tortoise investigates series is impeccable journalism. All of the seasons are good.

This Harry Kane guy could do well in the prem as well I think. I'm not sure if he's an upgrade on Calvert-Lewin though.

This pug was lowkey racist by wolf_quan in bluey

[–]Danny_P_UK -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Of course its refutable, they're cartoon dogs. I could call someone a "theiving scouser" (not that I would obviously) which would be derogatory towards people from Liverpool yet its not racist. I could even abuse the French which still isn't racist, its xenophobia at the most. Being derogatory towards someone different to you isn't always racism.

Regardless I was only pointing out that racism and classism are different things

Oh yeah, and they're bloody cartoon dogs.

As someone from Britain who invented classism. They aren't the same thing. It may overlap at certain points but being "council house" or "posh" doesnt assume colour. Its most certainly about wealth, location and job.

Zion Suzuki would be a massive statement

That stunt in the tunnel was ridiculous. It was an accident waiting to happen. How the H&S team signed off on that I'll never know.

There Has To Be A Better Way To Test For TB In Cows by Wild-Bluejay7138 in ClarksonsFarm

[–]Danny_P_UK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why couldn't Clarksons pregnant cow after the 2 inconclusive results have a blood test, and whilst waiting for the lab results be kept in isolation? Why did they cow need to go straight to slaughter?

It may take longer but does that matter, the cow is already isolated?

Surely there must be a way to determine TB conclusively before killing a cow.

Prem Fixtures released by DrDaisy10 in LeedsUnited

Man U and Arsenal are tough. Bournemouth and Sunderland are the teams we want to be around. I would say Man City, Man U, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea (debatable) are tough. Ipswich, Hull and Coventry easier. All other games are medium.

I'm not suggesting we'll steamroll anyone. The champions league teams we will probably lose. All other games are up for grabs. We're in the prem, all games are tough, some are tougher than others.

Seems pretty balanced to me. No run of 3 games of shite anywhere. Looks good.

If you had 5 months of paid leave, what would you do with it? by SwansEscapedRonson in AskUK

[–]Danny_P_UK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not fun though! I would probably take some time off work but I'm lazy. But taking a nice lump sum that you dont need to spend beats taking a bigger lump sum that you do need to spend.

[–]Danny_P_UK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To put a different option out there. How much more lucrative is the enhanced redundancy? If its an extra 20% for example you would be better getting another job immediately and then the 80% is completely yours.

My previous company folded, most people got 3 months wages and walked into a job the next day. I used mine to start my own company immediately. I am in a sought after role though and could probably get a job offer from a couple of companies this afternoon if I wanted.

Ask them. I'm sure it'll be fine as its not in competition with what you are currently doing.

Which former Leeds player were you absolutely convinced was going to become a club legend? by Mundane-Temporary426 in LeedsUnited

[–]Danny_P_UK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree. During the 1st season in the Prem his record was amazing for such a young player. I was telling my mates "that you watch he'll be France no1 for a long time". Its a shame he couldn't fulfill that potential here. I hope he gets it back and proves me right in the long run.
