The scientific approach may involve questioning everything, but it doesn't mean believing any old nonsense you get in answer to those questions. Any theory (which would include the official version of events) may be discarded when it's been absolutely proved wrong (falsified), or when a better theo...

What happened to at least two of my posts, including my response to Paul Wain and my final response to DSR?

There is every reason to believe that there are jihadist terrorists willing to kill themselves. Have you not heard of suicide bombers? Manchester, London, Paris, Nice, all over the Middle East? If you're trying to argue that it couldn't be suicide pilots because no-one's bonkers enough, you're on a...

The point about pretending no-one died in the Twin Towers wasn't suggesting that you ever did believe that. It was just rebutting in advance the only possible argument in favour of the planes being empty with no passengers on board. The point of cunning plans a la Baldrick is that they aren't neces...

Difficult question, but Wood has the current form (2 goals in in just over 1 game) and looks sharp and quick (3 goals even against the Solomon Islands is also a plus). More to the point, and not everyone will agree, Hendrick must be straight back in if fit. He lacks a little consistency but he's a g...

Surely that would have to be WOOD wouldn't it.

houseboy, seems to be some confusion here, as I'm on your side. I'm saying too many people are spoonfed the official stories and that's good enough for them. Sorry bud, I replied to the wrong post. Just goes to show mistakes can happen. You are of course right about the spoon-fed stories. The right...

Exactly, and these are the very people who tune in to watch stupid people on the gogglebox, safe in the knowledge that they (the viewer) have adequate intelligence in comparison to other people, including the authority which controls them. We've gone slightly off track here but it's a point I wante...

It's also been claimed that the whole thing was done by pink flying elephants. And like your other claims, it's fiction. You're forgetting to think again. Why would a government that is willing to kill 3,000 in the Twin Towers (and don't pretend no-one died there, you saw the people leaping to thei...

There are many pros and cons on this emotive subject and we all have opinions, mine is that the US government were in some way complicit, others may disagree, for every theory there is a counter theory, it has been claimed for instance that at the Pentagon attack no plane wreckage was found, another...

So youve never seen the interviews with aviation experts. It's been possible for years to fly such a craft by remote. So your sarcasm is a tad misplaced.

But who did it???? I've long been on the side of 'the Americans did it' personally, along with a very large percentage of Americans. I can still see the explosions as the buildings came down in a perfect fall - about every 10 floors or so. So many experts over the years have said that it is impossi...

We won't have to wait too long unless somebody gets rid of Trump. That lunatic will have us all back in the dark ages before long - literally.

720 years to the day, William Wallace and Andrew de Moray sorted Edward I and his army at Stirling Bridge. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/William_Wallace_Statue_%2C_Aberdeen2.jpg/220px-William_Wallace_Statue_%2C_Aberdeen2.jpg https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/89/0...

It was fairly clear early on yesterday that reverting to a four man midfield was going to mean giving up a lot of possession. We reverted to the type of performance that was typical of many hoe games last season esp the Liverpool game. The two wide men were fairly isolated plus the fact that on the...

Be more like 4 bore-bore draws.

"He's been a technical expert for Uefa and Fifa for years. Have a read up and you'll see that. This is why he's well respected, or one of the reasons anyway." What exactly is a 'technical expert'? Technically I'm an expert but I couldn't manage a football club and neither can he. Even if he is a tec...

I've never been able to understand why Hodgson (and a number of other managers for that) is able to command the 'respect' of decision makers within football, what has he EVER achieved apart from making a Swedish club (I think) a decent side for a year or two? The amount of clout that some of these p...

This is madness isn't it? 4 games in and sacked after a very creditable defeat away from home. Football really has gone nuts.
