    Griffiths if fit and playing regularly is the obvious one.

    Sheffield United presumably play a robust style with a big target man - maybe a fully fit Griffiths wouldn’t have suited that - and was outside their price range prior to them securing an EPL place.

    Other than that - there are no standout forwards - but god help us if McBurnie is meant to be the answer based on evidence in internationals he’s played so far.

    Another three years and Super Sam has a residency permit !

     

    Really?  Outside their price range?  How much do you think he would cost?

    I think when you have one striker at hearts, one in the Scottish championship, and a £20 million epl striker, those saying the £20 million guy shouldn't be playing have a bit of a case to be making.

    most people can see he is poor - except for the EPL fanboys who equate English transfer fees to talent.....

    Not necessarily, but our strikers we have to choose from are at hearts,.the scottish championship or a £20 million premiership player.  In paper it's a no brainer.  Do you think shankland will ever play in the premiership?  If not why not?  Will naismith get a move back to that league?  If not why not?

    He shouldn’t be as he is atrocious , teams pay 20 million in england for average players.

     

    That's true, but it they wanted any of our other strikers they could buy them no problem , yet they didn't.  No club at that level is interested in naismith or shankland etc.

    Why? Gov spends £800bn pa. And is currently paying £48bn pa interest. So take an extra £40bn tax and spend £40bn less and you can pay down £32bn debt pa. For decades, admittedly.

    Since we’re talking China - the longest journey starts with a single step...

    That would take seventy years, seventy years of austerity and stagnant growth.  It's not feasible, the debt will never be paid off.

    No such Early Day Motion exists in 1994

    Nothing condemning the IRA at any rate. Perhaps its another of his "condemning all violence" or something along his usual smirking gloating style.

     

    Condemning all violence is what all right minded people do.  You don't want that, you want him.specifically to condemn just THEIR violence and he on your side.  But he isn't a demented colonialist like you so he doesnt and that's what bothers you.

    Have you similar concerns about Johnson not condemning loyalist violence and literal terrorists and terrorist sympathisers being in government right now?

  6. The Tories are in coalition with the DUP right now, the DUP who today not in the past literally right now pose for pictures and share a stage with loyalist terrorists.  So is dorlomin calling on boris johnson to condemn loyalist violence?  I must have missed that.

    And the people of Ireland have the same right, it's their country too.  We artificially created a vassal.state, that does not supercede the rights of people all over Ireland.

    Did you read that quote btw?  You don't think Britain's actions in Ireland constitute 'interference'?  Do you.also think the UK I currently interfering in Scotland's right to.the same?

    So people did not want to let this lie. 

    Still no one has found much in the way of Corbyn condemning PIRA violence, calling for them to disarm, or much in the way of any support for the people of Northern Ireland having the right to self determination by choosing whether to be British or Irish by a referendum.

    Only calls for the UK government to give in to PIRA demands without much of a squeak about their murders. 

    Believe what you want. Because without evidence that is all you have, faith in magical grandpa and his fairy tale's of what he was up too in the 80s. 

    Why should only the people of northern Ireland get a say?  What about the republic?  We invaded, colonised and divided their country.

    Can you show British prime ministers condemning our violence in Ireland over the course of hundreds of years not just the troubles?  You seem to not be understanding he just agrees with the republican position, as do a lot.of people, because ultimately they're right.  Only demented British nationalists can't see that.  We are the bad guys.

    Corbyn has repeatedly condemned all violence, but because he didn't do it in a sash singing the Billy boys and didn't specifically just condemn the violence of the evil papists whilst dismissing ours that's not good enough for britnats like you.

    Nothing, if not predictable, Yoda. Just when do think times were ever good enough to start reducing debt? Your attitude ends up at payday lenders (junk bonds) borrowing on shite terms or at the pawn shop handing over assets (to China). All the time waiting for that big win at the bookies that’s coming up at the weekend (after the next election).

    That's naive the economy of a state is nothing like an individual or a household.  What will probably happen is eventually our debt problems will lead to our governments using our mi!itary to assauge them.  WWIII when china wants paid.

    RB Leipzig paid a lot of money for Oliver Burke, who is a guy that just runs in a straight line.........and doesn't do much else.

    So which Scottish striker would you suggest is better than mcburnie?  And if so, why didn't Sheffield United but that player?  Could they not afford him?  Does said played just not want to earn loads of money?

    I hate to break this to you but you are screwed on 3 points as regards independence.
    1. We are not going to be getting permission for Indyref2 any time soon and nobody seems to have a clue how to change that.
    2. There's no polling evidence of much change in opinion since 2014 despite everything which has happened since then so even if we get Indyref2 there's no evidence at all that we'll get a different result. Then the issue really would be permanently put to bed.
    3. Even if we get independence, the country absolutely isn't ready. We have too much dependency. I've spoken elsewhere about the chip on shoulder problem and the attitude problem of blaming others for our problems, the culture of avoiding responsibility and the endless grievance culture as well. We are not entrepeneurial enough. We have a population with too many expecting a socialist utopia of milk and honey. When that inevitably fails to materialise those same people will bring the country to its knees with their negativity and their anger.
    The timing is all wrong and people are not ready IMO. I won't vote for independence until I see evidence of that changing.
     

    Point number 3 really sums your depressing attitude up

    Lol I have that utter fanny on ignore but see.it.Cause you quoted it.  He's just a deeply.unhappy and bitter man waffling utter shite, but.its.funny he moans about negativity lol.

    Ideally we would yes - if it came with the right attitude, fitting into the team setup on and off the park, and actually performing.

    I don't for a minute think McTominay cannot tick all these boxes.................but then you have guys like Ryan Fraser, looking like he may well move to the European champions of club football, who plainly is a tad half-arsed about playing for his country.

    I wouldn't be completely blinded by what club they play for, or how much they move for - otherwise McBurnie would likely be our shoe-in forward for the next few years.

     

    Mcburnie should be our first.choice forward for.the.next few.years and probably will be.  Teams.don't pay.huge.amounts of money for a played cause.they think he's sound.

    So you basically advocate a ratchet whereby debt only ever goes up. And you, like successive UK governments will therefore secretly be a big fan of inflation to inflate away the debts. Your logic eventually leads to Argentina, Zimbabwe etc. We don’t have the worlds currency to help us like the USA.

    Yes, that is the reality we live in.  The alternative is to enact spending cuts so brutal for so long and tax rises so extreme the economy would grind to.a half and public order would break.down.  We live in a.bubble, but its.the only.option there.is.

    It doesn't mean anything to you because your a typical nationalist who just sits and wibbles while your little country gets reamed, freedom my arse !!

    No, it doesn't mean anything because those words in that order have literally no meaning at all.  You said jt, explain what it means.

    and freaks like you want our country to be reamed forever thats your worldview you utter weirdo.

    This is a very pragmatic appointment in the short term for Tottenham but the mayhem from the inevitable fallout in a couple of years could leave them in a much worse position than they are in.  Spurs will win a lot of games 1-0 over the next 2 years or so but then (like at the other clubs Mourinho has managed) it will go spectacularly badly

    Under poch spurs brought lots of young players through, saving them a lot of money.  That ends nkw, if I was a kid at spurs on the verge of the first team I'd be asking for a move in January, no kids will be coming through there now.
