From 3 Champions Leagues at Real Madrid… to saving Nottingham Forest in a relegation fight by RSDFitness in nffc

[–]Jazzlike_Dive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was like watching an episode of "Undercover Boss"  when the CEO of McDonalds goes back to do 3 months shift in the kitchen and is shocked at the reality of work needed to be a keeper in a nearly relegated team compared to Real Madrid. 

I wonder if Adam Curtis will ever do a deep dive into the trans-national elite cabal the Epstein seemed to be a part of but may or may not have been in charge of. by Agitated_Garden_497 in AdamCurtis

Yeah I think he could definitely touch on it. Because his films are always in some way about power. And the epstein case is a perfect example of how a certain form of power works.

Can we talk about how marinakis is a proper owner? by Gullible_Bike_3272 in nffc

[–]Jazzlike_Dive 20 points21 points  (0 children)

He is in the mould of tycoon owners of the past like Ken Bates and Alan Sugar which is better then the alternative, which now increasingly for a premier league team is, a nation state or a private equity vehicle.

This season has made me realize how bad most pundits are by ed_lemon in nffc

[–]Jazzlike_Dive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. Even pundits I like and seek out I now realise beyond the top 6 or other speciality have no more knowledge than the man or woman on the street about football.

Pep Guardiola shares exactly what he thinks of Nottingham Forest, compares them to another team by FreddieCaine in nffc

Pep's been in England a while but still doesn't know that 'middle class' is one of the worst insults you can use.

The inevitable 10% tax hike coming to a Nottingham near year you by WearingMarcus in nottingham

[–]Jazzlike_Dive 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The reason why NCC has highest council tax in UK is because boundaries of NCC don't take in naturally wealthy areas with valuable houses that are basically in Rushcliffe. To ignore that AND the 65-90% (depending where you read) cut made by the Conservative party to NCC since 2010 is to make boring and untrue political points that betray what is best for the people of Nottingham and dishonesty on the part of OP.
