    Thing about OldSparkey is, he's looking into the fishbowl, not from inside it.

    I'd say given your body language on here, you display your inferiority complex quite well.........To state you have a superiority complex strongly suggests you feel insecure in yourself.

    So you're proposing neutering or euthanasia?

    Was your life easier or hard than your parents generation? I would hope it was easier because that's how progress is meant to work but https://www.businessinsider.com/mil...arents-resolution-foundation-2017-2?r=US&IR=T

    House prices have soared compared to income that's just a fact as it the fact that real wages have fallen https://www.theguardian.com/business/2014/jan/31/real-wages-falling-longest-period-ons-record

    Well done for working hard, it's to your credit but hard work does not correspond to appropriate rewards. There's people doing long hours doing jobs that are very hard work barely surviving on the wage they get - hours and work do not = high wages/success. Yesterday the bosses of Thomas Cook were defending their 5 million bonus for tanking a company where the cleaners who came in the morning did more for the company for longer hours and for a lot, lot, lot, lot, lot (you get the idea) less pay.

    And long hours are fetish-ed in the UK for some reason but bare an adverse relationship to productivity.

    And if the don't tell me how your life is refers to me then just to let you know I am most definitely not a millennial by any stretch of the imagination.

    I actually find the majority of Leeds supporters on here, as well as those I've dealt with personally over the years through my business to be good sorts - it can get a bit "hairy" during the games, but that's life. We get the sheep molester tag and you get the "All our Yesterdays" stuff about you lot "living in the past", but that's just banter - no need to kill over it.

    Unfortunately you can't deflect your political and social outlook as expressed in your posts on here in footballing terms. Nice try but it doesn't come off. Bielsa and Warnock are not in government as far as I know, but I wouldn't mind watching the pair of them across the dispatch box. Warnock would be throwing a tantrum and Bielsa replying through an interpreter.

    As far as this thread goes, you are opinionated to the extent that you believe you are always in the right ridiculing the opinions of others who think differently. There's a big difference between the robust stuff served up as forum speak by on here by many on the wind up, and the more serious comments made by others - you need to recognise the difference and not try to put people down.

    I hope to have many more dicussions with you and your fellow colleagues on this forum on various subjects. In the meantime, this particular thread has morphed into many subjects and continues to be very interesting. <ok>

    Well Corbyn now wants a general election, the pound has risen against the Euro and Dollar, and the SNPs own poll says the Jocks are wanting to embrace a free UK and fook the currupt, perverted SNP.

    Ow and I have a 60 gallon drum of gripe water for you remainers use very soon <whistle>

    I and my political opinions get pretty robustly analysed/debated/abused and taken the piss out of on a very regularly basis. I very rarely moan about it (and I am slightly amused that if I do return some stick there tends to be a bit of a snowflakey reaction in return). Very happy to continue to have discussions with just about anyone but you need to not patronise people.

    Oh and in terms of politics Bielsa like some of the best managers in football history is a socialist and Warnock is a Brexiteer.
