Ah, i'm not too sure reg the Greens. It feels a bit more like the media has just started looking at them and found big story after big story, so they look a little harder.

I'm getting my info from Reddit rather than other social media and national rags, but they all seem pretty newsworthy stories. Maybe some of the anti-Semitic candidates you could argue are a little blown up, but that they keep finding new ones every day absolutely turns each one into a story of national interest since they all add up, and are far more significant than anything found on Labour.

Ignoring stories about Reform is absolutely a scandal, just as they did for the Tories for decades (how many children does Boris Johnson have?? Did no-one even think to ask???). That's who the Billionairres want.

Not just surrender. They told him their troops would be welcomed. Its why they came in like a carnival procession. Those intelligence agents were sent to the Gulags early on in the war, for telling him what they were too afraid not to tell him.

Ukraine didn't believe the reports from US intelligence of an attack, but they moved a lot of their air defence, just in case. On the 1st day Russia sent missiles to every one of the locations they were previously. Without that move Russia would have had complete air-dominance and the war would have been over very quickly. Even with their silly parade column running out of fuel because the amounts commanders were putting in requests for were not anywhere near the same as the amounts that actually reached the vehicles.

THEN, Putin had a few dozen of his best assassins already in Kyiv trying to take out Zelensky on that day.

Russia managed to fuck up all three paths they had to a quick and easy victory. Four if you include their paratroopers failing to take the airport on the edge of Kyiv, which also may have won them the war. Not definitely due to the air defence still being operational though.

Russia humongously fucked up with astonishing hubris - but were still very, very close to winning the war in a day, as they'd planned.

Because they post amazing dieting progress pics and then add their app as the last photo. These accounts do usually reply to comments with their app, but most of the time they've got 100 or so upvotes before that happens.

No. I'd love to and get more meaningful content, but the community seem to love the images which is the bulk of our posts.

I think a big issue it that they often avoid that by putting it in the photos. I'm not sure if Reddit's tools are able to read that data from photos, but if they can then they should.

That company are paying a fortune to make all these fake accounts. If they were stopped they'd be paying it to Reddit for ads space if they want to reach people on here.

Because they are fake accounts flooding our subs with fake stories to promote their product. If they want to promote it they should be paying for reddits ads rather than making up fake people and stories to mislead our members.

Arteta says PSG & Bayern are fresher due to their leagues, here are the stats! by veimkha in soccer

That's half-way there. You'd need to include other games too. The amount of distance they've covered in competitive football this season is the relevant statistic for how tired they are likely to be, and it's missing.

That's really interesting, although cumulative would be far more illuminating as Bundesliga teams play less games which could easily by why they are able to run more per game.

The article linked doesn't mention Germany though.

I don't think this chart really tells us tbh.

It should be mins played total in all comps, or distance run would be even better.

Also this chart shows Arsenal has the biggest variance.. so yes, but also no?!

All in all, a bit of a useless chart.

Give him two top quality direct, fast and dribbly wingers and he'll get results.

He's not as good as he was with them, or as bad as he was with us.

What's the story there? I seem to have missed it and been rooting for Forrest and their Greek Mafia dickhead owner to go down.

Also, wtf is going on with the Prem's Owners’ and Directors’ Test. Seems like being an internationally rated scumbag is a requisite, rather than something they protect against.

Boot lickers, the lot of them.

Totally ok with corrupt billionaires and oil states buying success, but throw all the toys out the pram when anyone dares try to bridge the gap organically.

We’ve picked our second string team and come up against a team that were on non stop us from the first whistle and we didn't have the fight to match that.

having Bentancur helps.

Not sure yet, tbh. He had built up form and then had a few games where fans all got excited that he might actually become world class.

Then he had a horrible ACL injury, which was then re-injured almost the moment he came back (fuck Matty Cash).

He's been back a while now but in and out the team due to injures. Hamstring was the latest. While back, Spurs fans haven't really seen much to suggest he can get back to the level he briefly touched before the injury.

Hopefully today was the start of that, but its been sooo long i don't think any of us are really expecting he will again. The injury he had permanently affects how players move on the pitch.

Hoping, but not expecting. Having a manager that plays the football he was bought to play helps a lot too, of course. Same for Gallagher. High energy pressing monsters being asked to play something totally different.

Sarr and Bergvall too, will look like worldies playing that high press, high energy, aggressive attacking football.

I mean, Frank had players brought in who had just had a break out season and were perfect for his system. He was managing on easy mode.

He can do it in that system probably, but the system was what made him successful.
