Re: BFC partnership with X

There's reliable studies that those cuts have already resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths. It's been a little more than just reducing the size of the public sector. So a minimum of 200k deaths directly tied to DOGE in the 6 months since the inauguration? I’d be interested in seeing these st...

Re: BFC partnership with X

Not a huge fan of Musk himself, I just worry about his sanity legitimately. But I’m glad the club has made this deal. More exposure on an app with a huge audience can only help the club. But it’s labeled a partnership… what’s in it for X? Are we paying them or are they hoping the massive worldwide C...

No one would force you to use it or personally endorse all views espoused therein. The idea is raise revenue for the club.

I'd like to see Gio Reyna come in on loan. I know it didn't work at Forest, but I'd like to think Kompany could sell him on his fit in our attacking style in the Championship. He has all the talent in the world, just needs minutes.

I also don't think this is likely, just wishing.
