I think the most important thing that can be shown from Liverpool's two drubbings at the hand of inferior opposition, is that Liverpool's players outside the first team are fairly poor. You wouldn't have seen United lose like that in a preseason friendly against inferior opposition.
 
Rosalind Franklin is hugely underrated, without her work, the structure of DNA may not have been discovered for years after it did. Her X-ray crystallography work that was crucial in Watson and Crick's understanding of the double helix structure and may have even been a cause for her cancer that caused her death.

Thank you Muffin. That's the lady! Yes she did get treated very harshly. Sadly, that was the way with academia in those days. Second class citizens. She should have had a share of the prize as well

She did get awarded with a Nobel prize posthumously didn't she? Not to mention that little backstabber Maurice Wilkins that went behind Franklin's back to show Watson and Crick the crystallography pictures. Crickey, sounds like something out of Eastenders.
 
Sugchester.

Do you think this thread is about banter between us and you? Can't you see that we're having a scientific discussion here. Yes Muffin. That was a dirty trick by Wilkins. We'll have to google franklin to see about the Nobel. As you saw in my earlier post, I gave her rep alongside the other two.

Fair enough, I just thought seen as this is the Man Utd and Liverpool banter thread, I'd try and convert it back to football banter rather than scientific banter. How do you fellas know so much about Science anyway...

If you think that politics is a dirty game, you ain't seen nothing until you've seen and felt the Machievellian world of academia:emoticon-0101-sadsm
 
FIFA's just a gang of kids in comparison believe me.

Do you think Chickpea will do a Roy of the Rovers after banging his head and start scoring for the oppositin?
 
Aye, it's almost bad enough to make FIFA look like a bunch of stand up gents (see what I did there, gently steering us back towards something that's maybe vaguely football related ;))

Whatever you say about FIFA, they do endorse good computer games! Rummenigge (sp) for president!
 
Can we please get kpr banned from this thread because i bet this will soon be deleted.

Well he wouldn't be the first..Roy Keane once scored for Real Madrid..well he always wanted to know what it was like to score for a big club.
